Evangelical Christianity over past 200 + years implies Jesus and Creator is a racist. Thoughts? [View all]

To my mind, the whole evangelical Christianity concept as applied to people of color in such places as Asia, Australia. the Pacific Islands and the continent of Africa, in particular, the idea that they must be converted. is racist and implies that the Creator and Jesus are racist. After all, they skipped those parts of the world, no Savior went to them, no Savior gave them a shot at being converted to Christianity and relied instead on humans to do it. How does one explain how an entire continent (Australia) was never visited by white missionaries prior to the early 1700s. Why did the deities isolate these brown people for 40,000 years and rely on the development of the technology of sailing ships, navigation instruments (based on clocks)? What happened to the souls of these brown people for all those years? Did these deities just not care?
