Why Black Men Don't Go To Church

I see Napoleon already ruined this thread.

No dude is trying to sit up in church and listen to another man run game.

But youll sit on you tube?

 

[LadySimone]

And me thinks Black American men are more wiser than those African men you know, considering we don't hardly practice a religion that was forced down on our ancestors. Why aren't those Nigerian men practicing their own indignous religion?

Again have nothing against religion.

But black American men aren't going to church for the reasons you stated.

 

[Bawon Samedi]

I'm going to hurt a lot of feelings, but I feel the way we blacks use religion is pathetic. Hell I'll also include those dumb redneck protestant southern. We use it for spiritual purpose, loving and caring. When it was never really for that. Religion to me is for power, finance and influence. The Jews and Catholics know what the deal is, which is why the have so much power. They don't take the bible "literally" like we pathetically do.

IMO I think I was born a Roman Catholic but raised a baptist Christian.

Trivia: Do you know the main Catholic Church and some Jews believe in Evolution and the Big Bang theory. Actually they were the FIRST to believe in those scientists. Which is why I said they don't take the bible "literally". The thing I like about the catholic church is that they believe in a physical body(evolution), but also a spiritual body(God).

If blacks want to continue believing in religion then we should become more like the Roman Catholics and Jews.

In KidStrangleholds church we ONLY read the first testament, focus on money/power/influence and believe in the idea of the body of psychical and spiritual. Anything else is irrelevant.

I know many Black American men who complain about practicing religion due to it being forced on them. Its one of the most common excuses by them to not follow a religion. I'll admit none of the men in my family use this excuse, but many of my friends do.

If I was those African men you mentioned I would stop going to church.

Yeah. If you're a single, Black man and want to eat good, just go to church and pretend you're into it! You'll be running through a ton of women.

After you've run through enough at a particular church, simply find a new church home and repeat. It's too easy.

Me and some of my black atheist friends legit have lied a few times to chicks to just seal the deal. lmao

shyt is so easy.

You'd think people could tell who was or wasn't religious...says a lot that its easy to "emulate"

The sermons are to surface and basic.

The bible deals with some heavy shyt and church keeps it light and fluffy. They won't even touch safe topics like alcoholism. Just keep it broad by talking about vices.

nikka which fukkin vices. Break this shot down you fukkin clown

This is another thing I really hate.

They spend 1-1.5 hours on like FIVE VERSES.

I'm like...damn, my high school english class aint even break down poetry like this bullshyt right here.

Thats why so many christians have NEVER read the fukking bible. They think its all flowery like that.

 

[BaldingSoHard]

black men are more logical than black women

That's really what it comes down to.

I have plenty of issues with our churches in general, but jesus christ do you dudes ever get tired of bashing black women?

1. are you black?
2. Are you non-religious?
3. Do you date black women?

If you answer "No" to any of those questions, then you really don't understand the STRUGGLE out here.

Even black doctors and lawyers I know are out there in church. shyt is infuriating.

This is a function of how the theology worked AT THE TIME because churches had the money to fund the research. It doesn't mean the research validates the church.

If blacks want to continue believing in religion then we should become more like the Roman Catholics and Jews.

the problem is thinking you need to keep a church in the first place.

Drop all the metaphysical supernatural shyt and make secular, humanist movements. Focus on the here and now and the future. Stop trying to substitute stories and myths to manifest into present values and motivations.

Lots of men at African and or the Nigerian churches Ive been too.

African men are more logical than black American men

What the fukk are you talking about ?

Because it's a business. Also the white man funds alot of these churches and has sway over what is preached. If the preacher steps out of bounds he can have his status as a church revoked by the white man.

Not only that if they get to real talkin shyt about homos, adulterers, single mothers they will lose their flock.

People go to church to feel good after a week getting beat down by life. They don't want to go to church and feel worse even though that's what they need. They church is an instrument of pacificication when it should really be an instrument for social revolution, for good.

sorry, but I just gotta say this.

the black community's inability to view gays as merely humans hurts us as a whole.

they exist. Aint no point in treating them like some threat.
