i never understood this myself, black men will leave their women for a white/latina/asian/space alien, in the drop of a hat. Why limit yourselves to men who take you for granted and dont appreciate you? Venture out and try something different. Black women have more in common with men of other races anyway, because they work, and in most part black men dont.
They dont need to justify themselves no more then an atheist or agnostic person needs to justify themselves.
Ghandi~"True religion is not a narrow dogma. It is not external observance. It is faith in God and living in the presence of God. It means faith in a future life, in truth and Ahimsa…. Religion is a matter of the heart. No physical inconvenience can warrant abandonment of one's own religion."
Ghandi~"I came to the conclusion long ago … that all religions were true and also that all had some error in them, and whilst I hold by my own, I should hold others as dear as Hinduism. So we can only pray, if we are Hindus, not that a Christian should become a Hindu … But our innermost prayer should be a Hindu should be a better Hindu, a Muslim a better Muslim, a Christian a better Christian." (Young India: January 19, 1928)
Atheist haven't explained to me why they dont believe in a god.
For the same reasons black Christians don't address the issues of white Christians.
My God is better than your God. I don't believe in God so I'm better than you. You're sheep, He's Sheep, She's a goat. I wish yall would STFU already. Believe who you want to believe in. Or don't believe in shit if you don't want to. Either way, I wish people would just stfu about it. If everyone focused on themselves and actually practiced what their religion preached, the world would be a better place.
Because they have seen or heard nothing that convinces them if it's existence..!!!
Didn't Muhammad marry a 9 year old girl?... and don't the hadith expose Muhammad as some type of sexual deviant?
Muhammad also enslaved people and had sex with the captive females, correct?
Atheism stays confronted with it's abysmal failure to make a dent in the phenomenon of religion itself.
He did marry a 9 year old Girl, back in around 613 AD. Do you know anything about the average age for a female to marry back in those Days?
You are applying todays Moral Standards (2011 AD) to a Situation from 613 AD?
Good luck with that!

Good postall major religions blacks/minorities in my opinion are condidered second class not part of the plan. all major religions if you are black wanting to marry another race someone from same religious group, you get problems. of course you have exception to the rule.
also major religions dismiss indigenous religious beliefs as EVIL.
of course exception to the rule but still.......
Dr. John Henrik Clarke dropping that fire. It's amazing to many cats don't know history with all this info available throughout the internetGood post
Atheism is not an evangelical movement, so how can it be considered as failing?
Surely the failure is that of the evangelists, that fail convince atheists of the existence of their gods?
Not quite! Religion always persisted despite millennia of attempts by the "secular-rational" community to get rid of it. It is a fact Atheists gotta face and analyze, rather than run away from or ignore.
Atheists attitude towards Religion is mainly based on two underlying assumptions:
1.that whatever comes from religion must be bad, by definition
2. that atheists don’t need to do much more than point out how silly the other side is, and you are done.
Assumptions that are highly unlikely......Atheisms Problem is that Atheism will never be an adequate substitute for religion.... Hence why Religion of some sort has always been around and always will be...as long as we Humans are around.
Religion fills a fundamental human psychological niche that incorporates meaning, emotions, ethics etc. in a way that Atheism never can.

nobody learns shit in these threads...they're a waste of time...people are too close-minded to hear the other side out..those that act like they learned something will reboot and be back to their same beliefs a week from now so all this debating is just stupid..and OP say hello to my ignore list
respect each other beliefs
/end thread

apparently you don't learn either![]()
aah, but thats bullshit. Anytime you narrow it down to a particular book, name for God, sex for him, story of his or her birth, area that he loves the most, and opinions on how to make him interced on your behalf, you are the EPITOME of NARROW.
On one hand, a believer in a particular religions likes to say, "oh I love all, and my religion says to", all while cosigning some book that says the opposite.
Our very existace is proof of a god....if you are looking waiting for white international scientists to make unanimous decision and prove it....the ones who's research is almost specifically limited to earth......t's not gonna happen. Their is tons of evidence of the supernatural.
Edgar cayce the sleeping prophet....had you not seen it or heard abut it then u wouldn't believe it. the mere fact that ancient ancestors all believed in a afterlife or god(s). Ya know the same ones with knowledge of things that we don't know about.
