How do White People get out of church every week at the same time?

[Yagirlcheatinonus]

“Ring Bells like Sunday at 12 o clock”. No white people get out of church on time. I remember one of my first jobs in high school I was a bus boy at a restaurant and every Sunday at 12:15-12:30 here they come. In black church’s we didn’t know what time we would get out of there. Then they wanna ask you to come back later at 5 o clock.

I’m going to be real now that I’m older. I think some of them pastors was prolonging the service to keep getting collections.

Because people got errands to run, games to watch, and they having their own family meal set up

Na I mean is this an unspoken rule in white churches to have service wrapped up before that bell ring?

I grew up Luthern. The shyt was a hour long exactly. Same format every week just a different message or scripture. As a kid that was the longest hour of my life. But the good part was you knew exactly how far in the service you were.

Edit: Let me add, the pastor was a full time pastor. That was his job. He was professional and knew he only had a certain amount of time so obviously every sermon was prepared and practiced to make sure it fit the time constraint. They also had several services a day. I can't fully remember but I think there were three services on sunday. I think the last one finished by noon. That was a long time ago so I don't fully remember.

it means they speak the word. Ain't no "y'all ain't hear me." "Let me say it again for the nikkas and the biitches in the baccl, ha" "I got time today..." they just say what they got to say. If it missed themark, oh well see you next week

1. They're more time conscious.

2. They're not preaching for bill money.

No I haven’t. I just know when I work at a restaurant in high school they would come in at the same time every week. At our churches we didn’t know when we was getting out of there.

It's just very ritualistic and planned out especially Catholic church. Hyms are the same songs for sometimes centuries old, kneel at the same time, say the same things together, etc. the organization isn't planning, it's ritual.

Black (baptist, AME, etc) church's were built on the ritual being the get together itself, and the time for that is less important than the emotion/feeling/worship around it. I damn near missed a Superbowl once because of the opening of a new church sanctuary and service. But, I stream the same church to this day and I tune in at exactly 8am PST because regardless of everything else, pastor starts the sermon then (ministry of music honestly does little for me).

But, not saying it's right, fair, or modern, but in black churches, it's a testament to your faith:

You got something BETTER to do than worship

no testimony session.

Naw he's right.

If you've been to a black church how many times does some random ass shyt happen?

From the preacher going on too long, to people in the front yelling "I know that's right!" to somebody you never seen before coming up and giving their testimony, to catching the holy ghost, to praise dances.
