Our Father’s Not in Heaven: The New Black Atheism

[Mr. Somebody]

I grew up in da church like most brothas. Sunday school, Christian private school from 1-6th grade. I was never fully sold on what da preacher was sayin, what ma duke, grandma duke, etc. was sayin bout god, da bible, jesus, etc. I believed but i was never satisfied by da ol "God has a plan" "Just pray" "Everything happens for a reason" shyt. Just too much fukked up shyt in da world for me to really believe dat.

My mom was a college professor so we always had national geographic, encyclopedias n shyt all around da crib. So we were definitely "cultured" about da world. But It wasn't till bout my junior year of high school dat i actually started doin some real research bout da different religions/cultures of da world. Saw just how many there were. Then dat lead to lookin deeper into ancient civilizations i.e. Greeks, Egyptian, etc. Lookin at their belief systems, there rituals, their dieties, etc. Then i started to focus in on just Christianity. Started discovering about the lost books that were taken out. Readin bout The Council of Nicaea, THe crusades, Protestant Reformation n shyt. I just sat there reading about all dis shyt like

Then it became so much clearer. Using just logic and basic common sense. Dat's what it really came down to personally for me. Thinking about how empires take over lands and force their belief systems and way of life on da conquered foe and after a couple generations dat shyt becomes gospel set in stone and all those people know. They are told to never question da shyt...no matter what. Some ways thru fear tactics, guilt, and/or physical violence. Dat's how it's always been thruought history. And dat's exactly what happen to black folk in dis country. Our ancestors were brought ova here...forced into slavery... and forced into adopting their master's belief system. And those born into dat shyt, over generations dat inherited belief system becomes THEIRS.

I can write pages on how i came to where i'm at right now but i'm def never goin back to dat bs. And what's made me realize just how deeply ingrained dat shyt is in people's minds is my moms. She knows all da shyt i know, hell even MORE about all da bullshyt about man's fingerprints all over da world's religions, etc....but she STILL is one of dem devout worshippin christian "black church folk". Even tho she KNOWS alot of da shyt makes absolutely no sense and the origins of it. It's just somethin i guess people...humans WANT/NEED to have. Dat sense of "protection" or somethin.

I guess it's a lot more comforting thinkin dat if you're walkin a tight rope over a dark hole dat there's somethin there to keep you safe, something there to catch you if/when you fall. Da thought of there being nothing after dis life is an extremely frightening aspect to a majority of people.

You left the Lords bosom and become OG Stankbref..........Yea, what a transition for the good? I disagree.

Its so demonic, friends.

Unfortunately demonic individuals try to use logic to explain why they left the Lord but the reality is they only wanted to engage in demonic behavior without a thought for consequence. The consequences not only after death but in their actual lives. More and more people want to abandon responsibility for their actions and or think that just because they except what they do as sick and disgusting that its ok. No, you will reap what you sew and at that point unfortunately, many individuals ask why me why me instead of just accepting that they were demonic and being flattened into Dust and shambles is how that story ends most the time.

Its so demonic, friends.

ALMOST EVERY CONQUERING POWER IN HISTORY HAS FORCED ITS RELIGIONS ON ITS VICTIMS, OR AT LEAST TORN DOWN THE TRADITIONS OF THE CONQUERED, BROTHER!
