We really don't have to go all the way back to ancient religious
texts to see racism and bigotry. All we have to do is go back to
your recent post. But let's emphasize the humor and frame it in
your present post. 

"Racism and similar bigotry go beyond mere opinion by, for
example, declaring a particular group of people as 'violent cats
...  culturally incapable of civilized government' and
recommending to 'bomb the hell out of them'."

Or if you were more intending to criticize the Koran and its god
for condemning groups of people, try out this alternate version
(of your own kind of bigotry):  

"Racism and similar bigotry go beyond mere opinion by, for
example, declaring a particular group of people as essentially
worth nothing but killing and leaving as 'dung upon the ground',
which is demonstrably false."

King James Bible, JEREMIAH
25:31 A noise shall come [even] to the ends of the earth; for the
LORD hath a controversy with the nations, he will plead with all
flesh; he will give them [that are] wicked to the sword, saith
the LORD. 
25:32 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth
from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up
from the coasts of the earth. 
25:33 And the slain of the LORD shall be at that day from [one]
end of the earth even unto the [other] end of the earth: they
shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall
be dung upon the ground.

Racism and similar bigotry go beyond mere opinion by, for
example, declaring a particular group of people as essentially
"monkeys and pigs," which is demonstrably false.


"... They are those whom Allah has cast aside and on whom His
wrath has fallen and of whom He has made some as apes and
swine..." (5:60); "...You have surely known the end of those from
amongst you who transgressed in the matter of the Sabbath, in
consequence of which we condemned them: Be ye like apes,
despised" (2:65); and "when, instead of amending, they became
more persistent in the pursuit of that which they were forbidden,
we condemned them: Be ye as apes, despised" (7:166).
