God was the first psychologist, not Freud

I'm currently learning about prejudice, stereotypes, and discrimination in my psych class and i just read about ingroup bias. Ingroup bias is defined in my textbook as the tendency to give more favorable evaluations and greater rewards to ingroup members than to outgroup members. Ingroup members being other people you relate to. Common sense right? We all have social groups, friends, family who we most relate ourselves to.. our INgroup. According to the ingroup bias, we tend to forget our fellow ingroup members' bad behaviors and remember their good behaviors. Wouldn't it be great if everyone was in the INgroup. No prejudice, no discrimination. I believe that's how God wants us to think of everyone. There's a reason he stated that we're all his children. ALL his children. Doesn't that put us ALL in the ingroup? Thinking that way changes our mindset, the way we view the world, view other people. We start thinking of "them" as "us". We start to forget their bad behaviors.. and remember their good..

I was kind of afraid that when I came to college and I would learn things that would contradict the bible and it would lead me away and make me start to doubt God. Now, I'm finding that the more I learn, the more I realize how amazing God is and how smart he is haha.
