The way I see it as an Anti-Deist, the god in that story was only looking out for those who were the focus of his plan. Think about it this way, if I take my cat to the emergency room and they say we don't work on animals are they in the wrong? I mean, they do work on animals, humans are animals. If I go to a veterinarian for my own illness, they will do the same. Neither are being prejudiced. To look at it again, the N.A.A.C.P. only works with certain people. Are they prejudiced or just focused on a specific issue? If this deity saw into the future and recognized that great things would be done by a certain person why would it be wrong of him to guide that persons ancestors?

He's at first prejudice when you hear challenges you must conquer in life, choices you must make, and actions you must take, but God will lead you to the right choices if you let him.

In the Bible at Acts 10:34 it says that "...God is not partial." So no, God is not prejudice.

"Is God prejudice,since so many people who claim they are Christian are?"
No god has ever been proven to exist. So, it's impossible to say. Why not ask if leprechauns are prejudiced, since those who believe in leprechauns are, too?

yes God is predjudice but he is also about love and forgiveness and mercy.
he does not have respect for the rich over the poor and Jesus does not deny anyone, black or white.there will be judgments against sin and wickedness and He will reward each man according to is works. see Rev 20
i think when it says God hates certain sins, he is predjudice against the sin. there are 7 things, it says, that he hates but the bible also said he Hated Moab and Esau.
Rev. 20: 12-13
12 And I saw the adead, small and great, bstand before God; and the cbooks were opened: and another book was opened, which is the dbook of life: and the dead were ejudged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their fworks.
13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and adeath and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.

Since God is omniscient (a characteristic of God that is almost unanimously agreed upon), it is logically impossible for him to be unreasonable, by extension of his definition. God cannot be bigoted or prejudiced, or even incorrect - no matter WHAT you might subjectively think about him.
This isn't even me trying to 'defend' belief in God - as it stands, this is purely a logical point of information that the premise of your question apparently hasn't taken into account.

I'm sorry that you've experienced prejudiced Christians. Be assured, they do not represent the whole. They are people just like you and me, and we all have our faults and failings. You and I are undoubtedly a little bit prejudiced too, on a number of issues, no matter how hard we try not to be. Please do not judge a faith by the actions of people who follow it, unless the faith explicitly endorses such actions.
A major point in Christianity is that EVERYONE has sinned and is guilty of being selfish in thought, word and deed - Christians are never expressed to be perfect or even better than anybody else.
Rather, Christians are those who ADMIT to their sin and ADMIT that they need a saviour.
Christianity isn't a museum for righteous, holy saints who never do wrong; rather, it's a hospital for the broken.

Is God prejudiced -
Well, God said the Hebrews were his chosen people, so: yes
Jesus refused to help any non-Hebrew, so: yes.
These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. (Matt 10:5-6)

God set the laws, so that is prejudging. We are commanded to teach those laws and to help people see their own sins. Truth always convicts so people think we are prejudice and mean, when we are trying to save their souls for an eternity. Btu some prefer the darkness to the light.

prejudiced, not prejudice. You need an adjective there, not a noun. Learn proper grammar. God doesn't exist.

Acts 10:34, 35 "At this Peter began to speak, and he said: “Now I truly understand that God is not partial, 35 but in every nation the man who fears HIM [GOD] and does what is right is acceptable to HIM. [GOD]."
