Response to Why Black Men Don't Go To Church

[pcmiler2000]

Hey ladies, if you want a man, you got to stop going to church, because the men ain't at church, also stop putting the pastors words over your man's word, because the pastor says Thus saith the Lord does not mean anything, because if God has something to say to me, he will tell me directly, not trough another person, so wise up sisters.

none....I came in this world without a religion and I will die without one. Southern negroes love their religion....its ingrained in most of us, or those that choose to "blindly" follow

[classygirlt]

@AntonTheSpot Oh ok, so if you have no religious beliefs, and I mean this not to sound sarcastic, but what do you believe happens after death or how creation came about. Just curious.

[AntonTheSpot]

@classygirlt I really don't know. I suppose you just die. Religion is made up to help people deal with death. The great "pie in the sky"...."pearly gates" sounds appealing.

[classygirlt]

@AntonTheSpot Oh ok, I have heard this theory before.

[AntonTheSpot]

@classygirlt I don't get down with that. It's okay not to know instead of imagination and spookism to comfort those in need of assurance of an after-life.

[classygirlt]

@AntonTheSpot I have heard someone else say this before.

[AntonTheSpot]

@classygirlt yes, its something to think about. The bible is for those people in that part of the world. Thats "their" god......not mind and not yours. The bible= jewish culture.

[classygirlt]

@AntonTheSpot Yes the Torah was given to the Jews, but when Jesus came into the world and died on the cross for the sins for everyone, all people of all nations now have access to God.

[AntonTheSpot]

@classygirlt so jews gave you access to this god?

[40gabe]

Men, in general, don't like Church because it tries to convince you that you are the Bride of Christ. Men don't want to be brides.

[classygirlt]

@40gabe now that was funny... LOL

[AntonTheSpot]

it's not the word of god......you ma'am are brainwashed to the max

[classygirlt]

@AntonTheSpot Oh wow... I never realized I was brainwashed!

[AntonTheSpot]

@classygirlt where do you believe morality comes from?

[classygirlt]

@AntonTheSpot Morality is something, I believe (please do not quote all Christians on this), is what is breathed into us when God breathes the breath of life into us. When we are born and live in society it gets distorted.

[AntonTheSpot]

@classygirlt that mysticism. If he breathed morality into us, why are we born in sin as you people claim? When you begin to think about these things, you see how ridiculous this is.

[classygirlt]

@AntonTheSpot It may sound crazy to you but it is what I believe. After studying and practicing several religions, i.e. Islam, spiritualism, etc. Christianity makes the most sense to me.

[AntonTheSpot]

@classygirlt Christianity makes since to you because thats how you was raised. You will see one day.

[classygirlt]

@AntonTheSpot No actually, there was a time when it didn't make sense to me at all that is why I explored several religions and even converted to a few. None of them had the answers to my unanswered question like Christianity did. Ok, may I ask what is your religious belief, if you have one. Then I have to get back to my homework.. HeHe ;)

[KeySour]

So much rolls in your neck

[classygirlt]

@KeySour Oh wow, I thought no one would never notice!

[JGvisions]

i think these women are looking for men in and outside of church case it is part of their nature as humans to you know seek mates and what not,lol. the concept in regards to the church is that its an organized establishment with people who interact with each other who share a common faith. its actually a good place to find a mate who share the same or similar likes or dislikes.

[fake2]

I study the new testament and The bible you quote also says Ephesians 6:5-9: "Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ;

The bible has so many bad parts. Why do you cherry pick the good parts and forget the rest.

[Islandrocka]

I don't go to church because I just don't beleive in all that bull shit...... I never did.

Their all full of shit, Pastors, Preists, Bishops, Angels, Demons, Saints, Popes, Democrats, Nazis, and Republicans. Every last dam one of them need to go straight back into hell where they came from.

[classygirlt]

@Islandrocka ... and why am I being told this? You may want to go to the video that originated this discussion and let him know, because he has you mistaken...

[Nebuli2]

@Islandrocka Democrats? More democrats are non-religious than republicans.
