I think what everyone is trying to say is: Both the neutral (white) and the ground (bare) should be separate wires all the way back to the house circuit breaker box. There, the neutrals go to one bus bar, and the grounds go to another. It is in that box, however, that the two are generally (according to code) tied together. Even if they share the same bar, the whites and the bares are separate all the way back to the box. The reasons why are buried in codes and ancient history. What's important to you is black (hot) is all by itself, and you have two parallel paths back to the ground/neutral bus bar.
