Black Millennials Are More Religious Than Other Millennials (2018 Pew Study)

"Jah focus"

religion =/= spirituality

chains still bind the majority of us mentally.

shyt, look at Uganda A beautiful country blinded by White Jesus. Even had a racist missionary come there and punk out a worker. The worker did nothing back.

especially in the South..? All the HBCUs have a really strong spiritual identity. Texas, Bama, Louisiana, Georgia, Carolinas, Fl etc.. they’ve always existed outside the dominant society, culturally.. Why do you think Gospel Artists are literally cultivated most in these areas. Our youth still have that background instilled in us from our parents/grandparents.

I wonderif they are taking into account the Black Millennials that are practicing indigenous faiths.

 

[Burned Verses]

No chit, people who were forced into poverty and bad education generally tend to have a proclivity towards religion more so than groups who weren't.

When Black people drop religion en masse is when we start to realize our true potential. Religion does nothing but limit the mind.

religion =/= spirituality

No letter "J" in the original Hebrew Alphabet. Should be "YAH focused".

How does religion mind your mind?

Religion is a product of spirituality. Not embracing your spiritual being not only limits your mind, but you fail to even tap into it

Sad.

great, more need to follow Jesus in these end times.

black people are more religious than any other demographic (I'd assume Hispanics are right behind us)

none of this surprises me at all



its a bad thing because it demonstrates collective delusion

You're less likely to be interested in science and technology if you're skeptical of it and think it's demon activity (which sole purpose is to drive you away from "God"). And it could account for why you don't see alot of black faces in those fields. It's a cultural hurdle, we get fed our creationism before we can fed our science.

While it's far from the sole reason, you can definitely take the "could" out of that. You got young kids reciting creationist beliefs before they've had a chance to truly develop their own identities and thoughts. Unfortunately, that means some of us are told that science is something to be dismissed before any interest in it can be fostered.

Sad and depressing, but it's a current reality

[you're NOT "n!ggas"]

It's fine just don't make demonize those that aren't "religious"

I take "religious" as christian in this context.
