how is he going by a book thats written by men anyway... i imagine his god didnt come down here and write the book so he might as well take his dumb ass to church
I remember early 90s my church I grew up in developed a system to keep track of all members and also how much they tithed. I was 14 at the time and I didn't always put the money my grandad gave me in the envelope with my membership number on it. They ended up dropping my church membership. At that point I started to become disillusioned with religion I saw it was about money.
Now that I travel the world and talk to people of different Faith's and religious beliefs I know it is all bullshit

Because of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. Once I hoid one of Malcolm X Speeches I was like "wow" 
When I hoid the Honorable Elijah Muhammad schpeeches, I KNEW that the white man is the devil. When I loined that the white man is the devil that the bible speaks of, ALL made sense to me. When he told me that God is black, I fell out into a 12 hour coma. Lights start coming on. I stopped getting flue shots, I stopped screwing with white womens, I stopped eating port. When the Honorable Elijah Muhammad tole me that he would ALLOW me to have up to 4 fine black american wives and 2 concubines (1 african, and 1 asian), I was SOLD on Islam. It is the only truthful religion for the black man in the hells of noith america. White Jesus Christianity told me that I wasn't shit and I believed him. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad that the black man was GOD and that Allah who came to us in the person of one Master Fard Muhammad to all holy praises due forever, I knew it had to be the truth. The first truth is that the white man is the devil, and the second truth is that Master Fard Muhammad is God Almighty
himself! When one understands the system of white devil supremacy and loins that the white man is the devil, this is the foundation of all wisdom as the Honorable Elijah Muhammad teaches us.
There is no God But Allah and the Honorable Elijah Muhammad is his last and greatest messenger.
Asalamalaikum and Alaikumsalam.

“What’s that, son? Nah, we’re not going to church today, fuck that. It’s all a bunch of bullshit. God’s everywhere, but I gotta go down there to see him? Really? And he’s mad at me down there, and I owe you money? Go fuck yourself.”

Anyone who continues to except the religion/programing forced on their ancestors by their enemies will continue to be enslaved...
You must be a student of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad to speak as you do!
None of that shit ever made any sense to me. I tried to believe, but damn if that wasn't some santa clause type shit.
It helps to facilitate the hustle.
I mean you need a way, a truth, and the life. No man cometh to the father but by him.
Numerous reasons. I could go on and on but you can't really say it better than this ...
Moved around a lot never really settled into a new church home and other things took priority which limited my time. Haven’t really been to church on a regular in 20 years now. I have my own gripes about the church but I do miss the fellowship and community involvement.
when I realized it’s a business and a mental prison created by the powerful to control the weak.
I saw through the bullshit when I was younger but I kept going to impress me mum then I found she never really believed in it either when shit really hit the fan and tried to use me as a fuckin' bulletproof vest. FUCK CHURCH!!!!!
Last time I went to church, one that my father and sister like to attend, I just left in the shittiest mood. I'm not the biggest believer in religion, but if one of my relatives puts the pressure on me, I'll go once every few years. But I always tell them, I'm doing it just to make you happy. I'm not going to be receptive to the worship aspect of it. I grew up in the church and my whole immediate family is still on that shit. I'm the only one that left and never had the desire to return.
It Was a waste of time
I never liked going in the first place

Saw a meme recently (here I think) that said something like :
"Black people hated everything about slavery except the religion " or something similar.

Being a scholarly person, I read the Bible completely for context so I could hopefully understand sermons when I was younger (always been a nerd-azz ninja...). One day during sermon the brought up how god had already created our life’s path and some other stuff. So, after the sermon we had bible study (torture) but I decided to bring something up that I was curious about: according to the book of Jerimiah, it was written that:
“Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee;”
Ok, cool...
As a result I argued that I found myself questioning many of the things being preached about and my faith overall, but I should not be judged because since “god made me,” he knew that I wasn’t doing this out of defiance, this was all already foreseen and could not be held against me. For that matter, where ever everyone ended up was known by god because he “knew” us in the womb.
The class was stunned and the Sunday school teacher was honestly without recourse. Their best retort was about serving god and trying to walk in gods image and grace.
So, since that Sunday in the very early 90’s (middle school) I realized the inherent flaw with religion and have simply been decent - not out of fear - but because it has made life much easier.

Black Church is too long, I'm not ready to sit there for three hours and passing around the collection plate five times. I might find me a 35 minute white Catholic church with free wine and crackers......
The church i attend does many things for the community.....feeding the poor and homeless, offering temporary shelter to simgle black women, many free help services (computer training. tax help, leagal assistance, health services).....most important it is a place for Black men to meet and discuss life and God....
Though my family is very religious. My father and mother, never brought us to church. My brother and I went too Sunday school when we were younger. But that's about it. Only time I've been to church was for funerals. Besides I gave up on religion at around 16 or 17. So there's no point of me attending now.
Slave masters gave slaves religion. What more is there to ponder?
