I never knew so many black men

[Calmye]

were opposed to Christianity before I came on the coli. I've never met a black man who was like this.
Sure there are those heathens who do heathenous things but they still believe in God and have a cross tatted on them somewhere. I even know thugs who post bible verses everyday.
It's like I refuse to believe it. It's downright baffling, it's like yall say this stuff for shock value
Do you guys really believe in no God? What made you this way?

I noticed that some people claim to not believe in God but are angry with God at the same time ..

this to a large degree. Also, being black and a non-believer in itself is seen as taboo whether male or female. Personally, i think there are waaaaay more non-believers than you would think. We are free to express ourselves without repurcussions here on the internet

THIS. You'd break big momma's heart with such a confession. Ive been demonized for simply saying 'I have questions' when it comes to Christianity.

You know our mothers forced us from small to go to church? Man fukk church. I knew something was up when you see the bad ass kid in school picking fights with people coming to the alter asking for forgiveness or the cop that tells ******s jokes is dropping $100 in the collection plate. I had to charge that whole establishment to the game. Wtf white Jesus on the wall?

Only on here I have seen so much Hatred for Christianity But it's the coli on here you get use to people pretending to be someone they are not to please people they don't know. At the end of the day I am content and happy in a having a relationship with God

You just answered your own question. The religion is filled with so many heathens and hypocrites that it has turned off many brehs.

Got pastors out here asking the flock for $60 mil for a private jet to "hand out bibles" even though you can do that for free

Add onto that is the fact that the religion was forcefully imposed onto blacks by the white man to keep us docile and always forgive them for the atrocities they continue to commit towards us.

No wonder half of us said the Jig is up

We are living out a biblical prophecy right now. Soon enough everyone will have no choice but to believe it

They get angered when things don't happen for them when they feel it should. See Gods people not living by the same word they preach. They feel it's easier to just not believe.

Anyone can say i BELIEVE in God, but not BELIEVE one word that's coming out of their own mouth..... and why exactly is this a black men thing .... I personally don't BELIEVE anything, there are things i know, and things i don't know....and things i probably cannot even begin to fathom.......just live your life as a loving, righteous human being and be done with it. Cause i'm pretty sure just using that little word BELIEVE won't be the determining factor of whether you go to Heaven or cast down to Hell.

I recognize their angle: If God loves us, why is there so much suffering in the world?..or why hasnt everything gone my way?

Here's A good point for people to remember about love: If you love others based on good deeds that they do for you or because they make your life easier then you dont know how to love at all.

A lot of people dislike God or their parents for not fulfilling every desire and wish they ever had. That makes them untrue.


Your mom needs a passing report card grade to earn your love too? If she missed too many engagements, didnt buy you everything you asked for or showed you tough love she's not worthy?

Its ok if you havent mastered love yet. Few of us have.

They get angered when things don't happen for them when they feel it should. See Gods people not living by the same word they preach. They feel it's easier to just not believe.

I thought about that question for a long time, learned to just have faith in his plan. I got to visit tulsa oklahoma for word explosion a few months ago, and the experience was amazing, being around so many people from around the world that shared your beliefs and faith. Never seen that in my life racism, hatred ect was all not in that place and if it was it was well hidden. One of the days I got sick and had to walk out a breakfast I got rushed by like three white people before I could leave asking if I was ok they prayed for me for about 10min white woman made me some tea and brought me some more food, then asked me the next day if I was feeling better. Lot of these dudes never seen genuine people inside a church. I work at a small church over a youth group. Most feeling being around people who are true to the word.

Like you mentioned, its that warmth -- the experience of love thats undeniable. No one can take that away from you, YOU know its real.

The same is true of God reaching out to you in your darkest hour, talking to you about how miserable you are, living a selfish lifestyle and encouraging you to change and serve Him. Its a calling. Its undeniably real

Refreshing to see someone on here still have faith and not afraid to claim God for savior and father he is.

Its a struggle though breh. God makes it clear that without serving his body(other people) you suffer.

With that said i understand the angry atheist because I used to be one. Following Christ is the hardest thing to do in life. I fail often. I truly believe that when you are trying to do right, the amount of temptation triples to keep you off the path.
