“I had always thought that if anything could help black youngsters turn their lives around, it was the black churches. Now Im wondering if they arent a major part of the problem.”
I don’t know much about it, but I read several years ago that many Christian churches really do lead black youth away from crime and into productive, happy lives. Those would be the churches that preach actual Christianity rather than some politicized, Leftist excuse factory.
Clearly there are some wonderful black Christian churches, and there are some racist black churches, whose primary purpose is politics and fundraising.
What I don’t know is what the numbers are. I had always assumed that these racist, unChristian churches were the minority. Now, I’m wondering.
Heavens knows there are a lot of sick white churches out there, so I guess it shouldn’t be a surprise about the black churches. But at least there aren’t many openly racist white churches around any more. Black churches, I don’t know.
