Death
The social dynamics of today are different to the past where people had to go to church and got indoctrinated early on.
No youth today is buying what the church is selling.

the youth today cannot relate to the teachings of the bible, plain and simple. Plus the church is full of clown pastors in zoot suits using female congregants and fleecing the people for money.

The church is full of hypocrites and kids today dont want to deal with that fakeness.

Precisely.
Dapped and Repped!

Above the fray.
You just wasted hella time on that response.

Yeah, I gave you the benefit of the doubt that you would at least try to counter. Didn't expect you to give up so easily.

The church has been undermined in modern culture so much, most "Christians" aren't even Christians by time they enter adulthood, they're just afraid to turn their back on something that has been part of their identity for so long and makes them feel better about their shortcomings and flaws.

Celebrity and media worship has superseded traditional religion in the West.

This is no different for black people

THEY STILL have no sense of the world :mjlol:

Make up theories, Barely found anything groundbreaking outer space and wants no smoke with the ocean :sas2:

I felt this on a spiritual level bro. That ocean line is as true as can be. They just found some crazy ocean creatures few ago and one of the comments said 95% of the ocean is still unknown to this day.

They must be really shook of the ocean if they re desperately trying to find inhabitable planets and searching for life forms :mjpls:


Might be a Godzilla, Megalodon Shark or something HUGE.... Eerie :mjpls:

Mixed emotions...the downsides are clearly documented...it can be refined and regulated more (but thats on us, not the church exclusively) but the upsides aren't even spoken on.

Today, i can go to BLACK run churches around the nation and get shelter, food, and free consuling...as well as networking opportunities...all while being myself as myself. We do away with that, what we have to supplement that void? Liberal white benevolence?! Ha! Barbershops? No food n shelter there

Ive been to church service outside of funerals less than 5 times in my life. Im not religious in the traditional sense, so my words aint from a "oohh lawd" perspective, but we need to view shyt in a more holistic value, cause nikkas tend to forget WE AINT WHITE. They can shyt on church and completely abandon it, and it would have a marginal effect on them....but we aint in that boat.

Thats before even considering the fact that most are religious in their conduct regardless of their religious practice in the traditional sense, as its aleady been aluded to in this thread.

Talking about the white man on your off time and working for him on your own time is a religion in and of itself, but ill digress
