I never knew so many black men

[NZA]

just looking at the type of pimp spirit the average black pastor gives off, most straight black men are not going to be eager to go every week

then when you look at how hard life and cacs in general have gotten on black men in recent years, black men are starting question things they used to take for granted in order to find new solutions and a sense of purpose.

I'm a black woman and I'm or a theist than anything.

Stopped going to church at 18 and haven't looked back in over a decade. ..

Honestly, once I stopped going to church discussions about religious beliefs never really crossed my mind. I really don't care how you believe or what you believe. I just don't want to have to be a part of it.

I guess that makes me agnostic, I don't know. .

A lot of black guys must feel the same way that's why they don't mention it in "real life".

It worked out amazing it gave them strength to endure the hardships of slavery with a faith that one day it would end.

It made them SOFT else if they kept with God worship through their ancestors they would have killed the cacs coz it would be natural thing to do kill your oppressors not pray for them

 

[Wild self]

I tell broads that I believe in God, just not organized religion with a con man with a tight mouthpiece.

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 think if that you polled most black American men and asked them, "Do you believe in God?", they would say yes. The Coli is a weird sample because it attracts geeks, loners and weridos (who tend towards agnosticism and atheism).

Personally, I think any man putting his total faith in ANY religion is being foolish. I have no issue with God or whatever you want to call it. But following MEN who created DOCTRINE and DOGMA based around a FAITH which isn't supposed to be explained nor really understood but only felt, is folly.

The simple fact that some people use Islam as a means for charity and others for Jihadist is an example of the craziness that comes from schisms in doctrine. Same for Christianity and its multitude of scandals.

And I'm not even an atheist Its just becoming harder and harder to pray to a man/symbol that was used as a tool of oppression for MANY groups of people for centuries. I don't see why you would want to be on that team.

 

[Dirty Mcdrawz]

yea that's kinda my point. A lot of black men (ppl in general) don't follow the bible at all but believe God exists. It's just the downright opposal of it that has me confused cuz like said, I never met one in real life.

Maybe you should broaden your horizons?

there's 320 million people in america alone... 7 billion on earth


if you think anything on the coli, is what is going on in regular life, you are dead wrong

shyt we can't even figure out what albums will sell... how the hell we have a grasp on normal society... the majority of people aren't even on a message board

 

[The Devil's Advocate]

I'm a theist. Believe in God or a spirit/force I guess. I don't believe in the devil, Jesus, angels, demons, Allah, the bible...ect

I've only been to church twice and both times I was forced.

i really don't think most christians BELIEVE it

they pick and choose and interpret what they want.... they get the lessons they want to apply, and explain away the rest.... it's fine to fukk before marriage, but abortion is wrong, but the death penalty is right for rapists, but don't kill animals, but gays aren't abominations, but but but but but





i'd say 99% of people believe in a higher power of some sort, believe as long as you're mostly a good person, you'll make it to some sort of after life.... and then the details get mixed up on literally every other teaching of the religion.. no matter what

Ned the Wino. Good to know there's some other 80s baby brehs on the site & not all youngins

@Dollfacecraze

You know exactly how salves felt never experienced anything they have but they were soft? They were anything but Soft, people today are soft they allow others who can't even touch them to think for them and force ideas upon them. Some of you have a false sense of self power thinking your superman and can each shoot lasers from the eyes and can't be beaten. Have y'all ever read any books know the beatings they caught trying to fight back? Those people were strong.

 

[RadaMillz]

Being an atheist is "cool" now days, it's very trendy and way to start a conversation. However let their plane go down midair and everyone will start praying to god again.

 

[radio rahiem]

It's about to be 2016 and people still subscribe to religion?
I can't even pity the fools anymore.

Obligatory religion post
