Racist Christianity was common among White Europeans even before the Reformation. It's known that Christians back then had no difficulties with saying things like these:
<"Oh, race of Franks, race from across the mountains, race beloved and chosen by God..." (Franks aka Europeans are the Chosen people)
<"...the Persians, an accursed race, a race wholly alienated from God..." (Browns as a race are accursed)
<"...upon you, you, upon whom, above all other nations, God has conferred remarkable glory in arms, great courage, bodily activity, and strength to humble the heads of those who resist you?” (Encouragement of European supremacy)
<"Let the holy sepulcher of our Lord and Saviour, which is possessed by the unclean nations..." (Brown MENA nations are inferior)
<"Oh, most valiant soldiers and descendants of invincible ancestors, do not degenerate, but recall the valor of your progenitors." (Honor your ancestors)
<"For this land which you inhabit, shut in on all sides by the seas and surrounded by the mountain peaks, is too narrow for your large population; nor does it abound in wealth; and it furnishes scarcely food enough for its cultivators. Hence it is that you murder and devour one another, that you wage war, and that very many among you perish in intestine strife." (Encouragement of colonization and enlarging Europeans' Lebensraum)
<"Let hatred therefore depart from among you, let your quarrels end, let wars cease, and let all dissensions and controversies slumber. Enter upon the road to the Holy Sepulcher; wrest that land from the wicked race, and subject it to yourselves. That land which, as the Scripture says, 'floweth with milk and honey' was given by God into the power of the children of Israel." (Ethno-centrism, also Europeans are considered Israel).
Note that it was all said by the Pope, Urban II, in 1095.
