Obama’s church is headed by black supremacist activist, Jeremiah Wright whose close associates are people like Nation of Islam leader, Louis Farrakhan.
The Trinity United Church of Christ, is well known as anti-Israel, anti-Jew and pro-Arab. http://www.tucc.org

Dogma (from website)

We are a congregation which is Unashamedly Black and Unapologetically Christian... Our roots in the Black religious experience and tradition are deep, lasting and permanent. “WE ARE AFRICAN PEOPLE, AND REMAIN TRUE TO OUR NATIVE LAND”..
Trinity United Church of Christ adopted the Black Value System written by the Manford Byrd Recognition Committee chaired by Vallmer Jordan in 1981. We believe in the following 12 precepts and covenantal statements. These Black Ethics must be taught and exemplified in homes, churches, nurseries and schools, wherever Blacks are gathered. They must reflect on the following concepts:
Commitment to God
COMMITMENT TO THE BLACK COMMUNITY
COMMITMENT TO THE BLACK FAMILY
Dedication to the Pursuit of Education
Dedication to the Pursuit of Excellence
ADHERENCE TO THE BLACK WORK ETHIC
Commitment to Self-Discipline and Self-Respect
Disavowal of the Pursuit of “Middleclassness”
Pledge to make the fruits of all developing and acquired skills available to the Black Community
Pledge to Allocate Regularly, a Portion of Personal Resources for Strengthening and Supporting Black Institutions
PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO ALL BLACK LEADERSHIP WHO ESPOUSE AND EMBRACE THE BLACK VALUE SYSTEM. Personal commitment to embracement of the Black Value System.
The Pastor as well as the membership of Trinity United Church of Christ is committed to a 10-point Vision:
A congregation committed to adoration.
A congregation preaching salvation..
A congregation actively seeking reconciliation..
A congregation with a non-negotiable COMMITMENT TO AFRICA.
A congregation committed to biblical education.
A congregation committed to cultural education.
A congregation committed to the HISTORICAL EDUCATION OF AFRICAN PEOPLE IN DIASPORA.
A congregation committed to liberation.
A congregation committed to retoration.
A congregation working towards economic parity.

Substitue ‘white’ where you see black’. If a white church came out with something like this, Sharpston and Jackson would be out front with 10,000 protesters in a heartbeat.

To the above, I say “Horsefeathers!” I see the Katrina relocatees in Houston on a daily basis, and the above commitments are nowhere near what I see.

I highly doubt their commitment to Africa, as well.

Per Expedia, there are at least five airlines with flights from Houston, TX (IAH) to Dar es Salaam, Tanzania (DAR). One-way tickets to Tanzania range from $1,1105 to $1,569.00. Certainly these prices are well within the range of most “african-Americans”.

GO THE HELL “HOME” if africa is that important to you.

KLM

Northwest

Emirates

Ethiopian Airlines

United
