ORIGINAL: slvemike4u Do you mean to imply we all dont have a kindly old uncle who spews hateful racist comments. This isnt his uncle.... If the people you hang out with start talking racism, hate, and hate for the country....chances are you are not going to hanging with them much anymore. That's psychology 101... People tend to affiliate with people they feel are like them because it verifies the self. I have gone to churches that have pastors like Wright. Many White people don't realize that MANY Black pastor's say things that many might consider "controversial". lol, welcome to the "other side" folks. Anyway, I used to attend a church that I enjoyed, but sometimes the pastor would say things I had a problem with. Guess what? I did not tithe, and I often did not give much money. I am sorry, if you give $22,000 a year to your church, you like your church a lot. Also, it is very common in predominately Black congregations for the pastor to discuss issues like: crime, drugs, racism, jail, discrimination, unfairness, SLAVERY, Aids, sex, homosexuality, etc. because these are issues most Black people can relate to. Walk on the wild side! Attend a Black church, be my guest. When you go to many churches you hear some interesting things. Can I get an AMEN up in here?
