Blacks think joining Islam is a form of sticking it to Whitey. It’s a racist thing, like most things black people do,

you make my point.

society doesn’t see male immorality the same as women.

In God’s eyes many men are just as much if not more to at fault than women since many men prey on women pressuring them, especially very young women many times from disjointed homes, then the men turn around and say they want a pure “decent” woman to meet family, etc.

Yes in recent decades many women in their insane pursuit of “equality” have become less interested in purity God suggests is best, and have gotten in the sexual immorality pit with men.

If Men would step up and be godly men prior to marriage a lot more young women and divorced or widowed women would remain pure until marriage too.

God made us equally in His image, but God did not make men and women the same. He did so on purpose, otherwise He would have just created a one sex being.

If men won’t lead then the women will take charge. Men are to be the spiritual leaders of their families, but many (most?) who I know will not take on that responsibility. The moms end up disciplining their children and it extends to the church.

I prayed for several years for my husband to have a vision for our family and for God to give him a desire to truly lead his children. Praise God he answered that prayer. I never told my husbandry desire, it was entirely the work of the Holy Spirit. Now I no longer serve on church committees, he has taken on that role.

Feminization of the church is a big part of the attraction of Islam. Another factor is pride: people like to save themselves. All religions except for Christianity are merit based. Christianity alone offers grace through salvation alone. Nothing we can do would ever be good enough-it’s humbling to realize how weak and pathetic our best efforts are in the eyes of the Lord.

Islam feeds pride: sin is caused by external influences so it’s never your fault. It’s a whores fault for not wearing the hijab and so on.

In a world that demonizes men and essentially matriarchal African American household, Islam raises the man up to head of the household, dominant force in the family.
He gets the stability of marriage and permission to have several wives versus multiple baby-mamas, plus authority to be the MAN.
Less discussed is the permission to beat them for disobeying him or cheating on him.
And he automatically has more social weight than them as a Muslim, whether or not he has a job.

It is also one of the few groups that glorifies motherhood. A stay at home Mom who is Christian is mocked. For the Muslim, it is her defining role, and if you want to be a stay at home mom versus working / welfare single mother, the Muslim man is almost the only option in the black community.
If she’s wearing a headscarf and has five kids, no one questions or even says the veil is a sign of liberation.

Based on what? When women choose they always select the more sexually experience men. That's the way it's always been and that's the way it's in churches today.

>society doesn’t see male immorality the same as women.

Because it's not the same. Every civilization in history has viewed men fooling around as a minor vice while female chastity is the biggest thing to worry about. Lack of female chastity massively increases the likelihood of cuckolding. Increased cuckolding and male investment in the children drops to zero. It's not complicated.

61% of muslims in America are 1st generation immigrants.

How many of the rest of them are black separatist followers of the MMM/Nation of Islam (which is not recognized as “true Islam” by the rest of the muslim world)?

How is it possible that the freedom loving Western World could so rapidly adopt Islam. . . . So why is the West converting to Islam overtly (submitting) and covertly (supporting Islam)?

Easy. Hashgacha Pratis. The prophesied End-of-Years Esau & Ishmael alliance.

Islam is far from easy - when was the last time people assembled in church five times a day, every day, for prayers? Daily observed and performed rituals for ordinary events? Kept dietary laws? The punishments for not following Islam's laws are also quite severe. Easy? No.

Islam is all-encompassing like Judaism, where there is a right way to do everything and it must be *practiced* every day.

Jesus said, “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life, and only a few find it. Beware of false prophets.” Matthew 7:13-15

Christianity requires repentance. And giving control of one’s life over to Christ. A Gospel without repentance is much more inviting.

Turning from old habits and forming good habits to take their place is change. Change takes effort, and can be not so appealing.

I know the “repentance” and “change” stuff kept the BCC from committing for a long time.

And I suppose, according to some folks mentioned in the article, being a Christian while being white is racist.

Stockholm Syndrome:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stockholm_syndrome

The trouble with these lapses is that the older I get, the more frequently they occur.

On the other hand, when they don’t occur at all any more, I’ll know I’m dead, so I’ve got that going for me!
