There's also a video of him talking about $arah.

A Denver talk radio host suggested that it wasnt possible to believe in God and still be racist.
....
The roots of this kind of racism, this kind of attitude where somebody really thinks theyre superior to somebody, just because of the color of the other persons skin? First, what it tells me you know, my constitutionally-protected opinion about that person is they dont believe in God, Caplis said.
Nobody who believes in God can be a racist, in my view, because once you believe God made us, you mean, God made junk? Caplis continued. God made somebody lesser just by virtue of the color of their skin? So my starting point is always: All racists must be atheists. They cant possibly believe in God.
...
You cannot believe in God and be a racist because, if you believe in God, then you cannot possibly believe that God made somebody inferior just because of the color of their skin, he said.
...
In fact, Ive never had that impression whatsoever, that any sort of big number of atheists were racist, he said. My point is the opposite, or a different point, I should say. That I think, probably, all racists are, at the end of the day, atheists.
...
I apologize if it was taken that way, but never couldve imagined somebody would think I was saying that all atheists are racists, he said. That would be a goofy thing to say. I was just saying all racists are atheists.

Personally, I am getting really tired of christians like this guy, projecting their own failings on atheists. We are not the go to punching bag for amorality.
