Here's the real reason Christianity is so readily accepted...

[Spiritual Stratocaster]

It's the ultimate lazy persons religion.

Of course it would wash out traditional afrikan religion. It takes no real work! You even don't have to personally study and learn!

Only thing you have to do is "believe in, and give your life to jesus".

That's it! And he accepts EVERYONE! You can be your village idiot...jesus loves and wants you! You can be a filthy child molester...jesus loves and wants you! A dumb ass mufukka with no ambition or responsibility...guess what...jesus accepts you!

Who wouldn't accept this religion?

This is the ingenuity and appeal of christianity. It's perfect for fukk ups and losers, of which the majority are.

Easier said than done..

Not being angry, having to humble yourself constantly..

Turning the other cheek, accepting and loving everyone.

Jesus was perfect, it's hard to do.

For example when you're dealing with someone who is an a$$hole, yet you still have to love him, pray for him, have sympathy for why that person is an a$$hole. When in your mind you're thinking "I just want to leave and never deal with this guy again".

There are also reprecussion from not totally obeying God as well..it lowkey makes me depressed sometimes... having to accept the fact that God has a plan for your life, and he wants you to live your life in a way that SERVES HIM...your feelings don't matter.

That is hard to accept, and while I know he has blessings for me, I'm blocking them because having to commit to serving God's plans for the rest of your life is a scary prospect...

He wants you to end relationships with people , you have to do it
Quit drinking,smoking,sex before marriage
Put in a situation where you have to help someone you don't want to help? You gotta do it


Being a religious person in 2018 is way more difficult ...

Hell for example...someone hits you in the face...the Godly thing would be to just walk away....in 2018..shyt like that would have you the laughing stock....your girl/wife lose respect for you.

 

[Spiritual Stratocaster]

Very easy, cause even if you stumble all you need do is ask your daddy to forgive you.

Nah.... God's wrath is real, and best believe he'll send some real heat your way for disobeying...

While yes you can stumble..there will be consequences.

Jesus is the truth so I already have.

If jesus is the truth is he the original deadbeat father? These men we call deadbeats should get slack. Here's your heavenly father:

Left infants alone in the garden with a pedo uncle. After they were molested by their uncle he punished them!

Your father comes round less than Pookie! In fact you never seen him. He talks to you via telepathy. He has everything and the power to give you everything, yet he gives or allows nonbelievers to have more than you.

He would be the original deadbeat dad...

 

[Sukairain]

People like to think their beliefs are set in stone, but they aren't. They're completely provisional. If it becomes illegal, unpopular, or otherwise inconvenient to subscribe to a particular belief then it will die.

England during the reformation is a good example. An entire country changed religion overnight, all because its king wanted a divorce, which was forbidden in the old religion

Easier said than done..

Not being angry, having to humble yourself constantly..

Turning the other cheek, accepting and loving everyone.

Who said loving someone doesn't involve correcting or punishing them for wrong doings? God loves us right, but he damn sure will punish or kill us right?

Jesus was perfect, it's hard to do.

Was he really? He damn sure cried on that cross "why me". And reading other accounts of his life he did some mean things.

There are also reprecussion from not totally obeying God as well..it lowkey makes me depressed sometimes... having to accept the fact that God has a plan for your life, and he wants you to live your life in a way that SERVES

You say there are repercussions, well what are the tangibles for obeying. And a tangible is something specific ONLY to his believers. I'll wait for that...

Also, so god is the original slaver huh? He made you to SERVE huh? Do you have kids? Do you want them to kiss your ass all day, or do you love them so much you want them to fly and succeed at whatever they want to do?

That is hard to accept, and while I know he has blessings for me, I'm blocking them because having to commit to serving God's plans for the rest of your life is a scary prospect...

Lol...he damn sho isn't blocking or stingy with the blessings for wicked people huh?

He wants you to end relationships with people , you have to do it
Quit drinking,smoking,sex before marriage
Put in a situation where you have to help someone you don't want to help? You gotta do it


Being a religious person in 2018 is way more difficult ...

Hell for example...someone hits you in the face...the Godly thing would be to just walk away....in 2018..shyt like that would have you the laughing stock....your girl/wife lose respect for you.

Is all that god's word or mans belief?

 

[Dzali OG]

Nah.... God's wrath is real, and best believe he'll send some real heat your way for disobeying...

While yes you can stumble..there will be consequences.

When is he going to send some that heat at the wicked leaders of this world? Lemme get this straight, his kids who try and follow him, that heat coming immediately? But those who don't even try...their heat coming when the world ends....?

How's that for a daddy? Got neighborhood kids driving benz, eating steak, running the hood, and they tell him fukk off. While his actual child catching the bus, eating noodles, and working for the outside kids. That's father of the year huh?

 

[Dzali OG]

Brehs pay attention to this logic and free yourselves! Humble yourself and admit truth.

Stop caping for a deadbeat father!

 

[Afrodroid]

Don't be fooled, we haven't even seen a bible written by our ancestors. The bible we see is written by greco-romans. If it were not so, it would have been destroyed with the other afrikan teachings. Common sense.

Just as no one has seen all of today's religions being written, faith is based on principles and beliefs.

And where have you seen wicked punished? It's a feel good theory, but where have you seen it?

If you mean punishment like death, it goes way beyond that. Evil is inherited in all of us, there are those who embrace it and there are those who seek redemption. Think of it as an example that if you really wanted to punish the wickedness of the world then you should start punishing yourself.

Ready for war...lol...where do you see christian blacks ready for war?

We have to stop lying to ourselves...

As i said before, for centuries white man and the catholic church have used the word of God as a tool of destruction, spreading fear through oppression, manipulating people's minds and deceiving many. Sad that even most of our leaders have adopted such ideas rather than seeking the true message of the scriptures.

But understand that, religion, Christianity, is not an instrument of war. If you want to fight another man then build an army and go for it, God will give you strength to overcome your enemy if your cause is legitimate and this serves His purposes.

This is the meaning of the word.

 

[YakSpiller]

fukkin fairytales.

Ain't nobody up there. You a spec of dust.

Nobodies important

Its just a way to cope with the fact you're gonna die one day and you're too scared to admit ain't shyt on the "otherside"

When you die...you're dead.
You wont even know it

Now I'll get a whole bunch of religious people with no fukking logical answers tellin me what the "truth" is

 

[the cac mamba]

Wrong. You have to do much more than that and a lot of people died over their belief, so Christianity is anything but easy.

not even any disrespect, but how do you figure? all you have to do is make an imaginary promise inside your head to an idea of a being you've never seen where is the effort?

ive seen that charlatan Joel Osteen say that all i have to do to "bring jesus into my heart" is repeat a prayer after him

 

[Dzali OG]

faith is based on principles and beliefs.

Belief...you can believe you can fly. But go jump your ass off that building and see.

If you mean punishment like death, it goes way beyond that. Evil is inherited in all of us, there are those who embrace it and there are those who seek redemption. Think of it as an example that if you really wanted to punish the wickedness of the world then you should start punishing yourself.

You skirted what I typed. I asked do you see evidence of what you say?

As i said before, for centuries white man and the catholic church have used the word of God as a tool of destruction, spreading fear through oppression, manipulating people's minds and deceiving many. Sad that even most of our leaders have adopted such ideas rather than seeking the true message of the scriptures.

Why did god not correct this immediately?

If jesus is the truth is he the original deadbeat father? These men we call deadbeats should get slack. Here's your heavenly father:

He would be the original deadbeat dad...

Naw, a deadbeat dad doesn't take care of his kids at all. Just abandons him. He fed them and gave them everything they needed. Even gave them game but they chose to listen to their lust and the serpent. Infants, pedo, molestors? That's not indicated in the Bible. They were grown and made the wrong choice. If as a parent, I tell you not to do something, and you do it, then that's on you.

 

[get these nets]

He would not have been catholic in the modern sense. Remember these people still had their afrikan culture to a large extent.

At best it would have been Catholicism mixed into their indigenous beliefs.

Nah.
The mulatto elite and free Blacks of the colony were in many ways.......insert Jordan hitler mustache image. In fact, it was that character flaw of TL that lead to his undoing. Great great man though. The class of Blacks he was part of were fully invested in French society and were probably full practicing Catholics.

It was the enslaved, forced to attend worship the religion of the slavers who secretly substituted their African gods while acting like they had icons of Catholic saints.

You have a clear passion for this overall topic, but I'd suggest you read or brush up on West African history and the slave systems in the Americas.

 

[Will Ross]

What makes you think religion should be hard?

 

[Dzali OG]

If as a parent, I tell you not to do something, and you do it, then that's on you.

Theres more to being a good parent. Protecting your child is included. Following the story, god left his children alone in the garden where they were molested. They were children, as they had no knowledge of good and evil.

He did not give them everything they needed, he gave them no defense against the serpent! He kept them in a childlike state.

Do you have kids? If your kids mess up, and I mean infants to toddlers, do you kick them out? Do you allow your children around predators then blame them if they get hurt?

This is simple logic we overlook when we're fully immersed in christianity.
