The statement "Apartheid ideologues justified apartheid through religious scripture" is False.
Explanation:
1. Apartheid was a system of institutionalized racial segregation and discrimination that existed in South Africa from 1948 until the early 1990s.
2. While apartheid was supported by some individuals and institutions in South Africa, it was not justified through religious scripture.
3. Apartheid was primarily based on racist ideologies, political motivations, and social control rather than religious teachings.
4. Religious scriptures from various faiths emphasize equality, justice, and compassion, which contradicts the discriminatory nature of apartheid.
5. It's essential to differentiate between religious beliefs and the misinterpretation or misuse of religious texts to justify oppressive systems like apartheid.
In conclusion, apartheid was not justified through religious scripture, and the notion that it was done so is false.
