Like bowling?!

The retort is that  historically, prior to electricity and night-vision goggles, fears of the darkness and the unknown colored human visions of the supernatural and vast infinite waste that we could never accurately analyze, hence metaphors about "light" and "dark".

If you want to look at things with racism in mind, you can see many things in life as "racist"... e.g. if i like to wear more black clothes than white/lighter, then you can call me a racist...vice versa... if I prefer my tea white/black, then I'm a racist... people are looking for all sorts of silly ways to play the "racist" card. I wish there wasn't a word like this as people are getting more and more silly when it comes to racism.
