Black folks...Why do we have a bunch of reverends representing us?

[Bondye Vodou]

Black people love to cling to these fake ass religions too much. Half of those pastors are fukking their congregation out of money & sexing the wives & children in the congregation.

Church is Evil

Why the fukk do people in this thread still keep talking about the need for "leaders" is another good question. Do other races have leaders?

This isn't 1964. fukk a leader. People need to be autonomous leaders of their own lives, families, and communities.

but but we need a moses to free us from the pharaoh and deliver us from the evil that is egypt!

Who will tell us what to do?

Who will whe whine and complain to when we dont get our heavenly hand out?

Who will we turn our backs on and worship man made idols when his back is turned?

Who else will we be able to blame when we wander in the desert for 40(0) years......

if not for our leader, Moses? Whomever our moses will be?

Until he arrives, I'ma just sit here and wait.

Blacks in America would fare much better if we did have some good leadership and we all could unite...because for he most part we lack pride unity and love for one another...to many of us have self hate issues and we really need to gain control of where our black dollars are being spent so that our black businesses can flourish then we can help each other and rebuild our great legacy

black liberals are pathetic and docile that's why. Cornell West so eloquently exposed them on Democracy now yesterday.

Thank the black church everyday for the very fact that you have some rights.
If MLK was an Atheist we wouldn't be here today.

Lot of atheists were behind the scenes putting in legwork and brainwork into the movement. MLK was a face of the movement.

You don't even believe the sh!t you type.
Do you want me to give you the stats on the number of Atheists in America during the 60's?

Do you believe those #'s do you believe the #'s they give you today? With the negative connotation that comes along with that title, people are hesitant to use it.

its becoming more acceptable, and the #'s appear to be rising.

This is absolute bullshyt and you know it. The church was the central organizing center for the entire civil rights movement. Don't let these fukking prosperity pimps that fill the TV and news media confuse you on who the true prophets were.

Christianity has done wonders for the black liberation movement in America. Lets not let the demonic atheists allow us to forget our history friends.

answer to thread title:
because we have had "their" religion heavily planted in our culture

 

[Kritic]

just got done talkin to the girl and she made me come post on this... i left this thread up from last night when i was working. this is what she said:

"you know you left this one page up about reverends representing black ppl and there was all these ppl posting their comments. it was very intriguing and i read 4 or 5 comments and i really wanted to respond. who are these ppl who have their little icons and fake names? i think they had something important to say. why don't they post their picture, name and address?"


which comment intrigued you?

"there was this comment about they should just kill or let the older ppl die. how does someone post something like that? don't they know the black community is where it is because of them. they might not aggree with barack but barack is president because of the older generation. look at the younger generation who think are atheist. they all kill each other. i should have made my comment cause they got me all riled up! and i would post my name and address and tell them to come get me. lol. let them know this blonde girl has something important to say."



"i wonder who you were in that page."

i was there. i'm surprised you couldn't tell. maybe just not in the page you read.

 

[feelosofer]

I don't know how it is where you are from my spot, NJ, but the Black Church as a unit is so deep in the pockets of rich, neo-con (democrats and repbulicans) it's ridiculous. Political interests have corrupted the Black Church so deeply.

The bolded doesn't even make any sense. Most people that would consider themselves atheists (or any variation) don't believe in demons either.
