(ThyBlackMan.com) These days, in my rare appearances of being out in public, I walk around predominant black areas in Montgomery and almost on every street and every corner in our community, it’s not uncommon to see a church everywhere you look in the community.

Not all black churches and black pastors have sold out the interest of the black community because I actually know some of the black churches and black pastors that truly care for our community.

Here are several actual reasons why a lot of black churches have sold out the interest of the black community.

1. A Lot Of Them Breed Pimp Pastors – One of the most notorious things that I have noticed about a lot of these black churches is that a lot of black pastors don’t care about their community because they use their platform to actually exploit their members (working class blacks) every Sunday by asking for a “donation” of 10% of their paycheck which actually goes out of our community and into the hands of these greedy, money hungry parasitic capitalist corporations, corrupt big money politicians, and also in their own greedy pockets therefore becoming pimp pastors in the process.

2. Living An Illusion Of “The High Life” – A lot of these black pastors that use their platform to exploit members also use the “donations” to fund their illusionary lifestyle in which their lavish home, expensive watches, expensive cars are material things that only last temporary because they can’t take any of those things with them after they leave this world. I also wanna note that back in the day, there was a rock song that was actually told a cautionary tale about the dangers of living life in the fast lane and it seems that a lot of these pastors in our community still don’t get that message at all.

3. A Lot Of Them Are Greedy And Very Materialistic – I also noticed that a lot of black churches and black pastors these days seem to have this very toxic habit of placing greed and materialism over their own community and this was clearly evident when Creflo Dollar asked members of his big megachurch in Atlanta to “donate” $60 million for a private jet and my first thought was “Why in the hell is this guy literally exploiting his members by asking them for such a ridiculous donation like that?”. Good thing was that the greedy bastard never did get the $60 million for that private jet he so desperately wanted.

4. A Lot Of Them Work In The Back Pockets Of Corrupt Big Money Politicians – One of the most glaring things that I noticed about the presidential election last year was that a lot of these black pastors that actually work in the back pockets of these corrupt big money politicians were basically buckdancing for two notorious enemies of the black community in Hillary and Trump because both candidates did what corrupt big money candidates do: pander to the black community for votes and do absolutely nothing for the black community once they get into office and we have seen this so many times.

The Conclusion – We must come to an understanding that not every black church and black pastor in our community has our community’s best interest at heart because a lot of them work in the back pockets of these corrupt big money politicians.

    Is the Christian faith something we should be following anyway? We don’t know our roots and we are still lost and struggling to find our identity. It is past time for us to go in a different direction.

    AFRICAN AMERICANS ARE NOT BLACK
    It amazes me how many of you are still brainwashed to call yourselves BLACK. Black is not an identity and scientifically black is not even a color. It is next to nothing. Black is the “color” of your car tires, not your skin. The white oppressive slave trader called you black and himself white to set up a contrast and to attach negative images and denotations to you based on a lie about color. Look up BLACK in the dictionary.
    Research even shows that blacks are perceived by other groups as very different from African Americans. But we still keep calling ourselves what someone else defined us as, what we are not and what has a negative dictionary denotation in society. WAKE UP. LOOK AT THE REAL COLOR OF YOUR SKIN. YOU ARE NOT BLACK. You are an African American. The lie of calling us black and defining us by color (the wrong color) has been in place so long that our people accept it as truth – but it’s not. Know your colors.
    Native Americans do not allow others to call them red men. Asians do not accept being called yellow men. Hispanics do not answer to “what’s up brown man”. And Caucasians are not white, notebook paper is white. Wake up and see the plan where white racist supremacists plotted to redefine our people from Africa. STOP CALLING YOURSELF SOMETHING THAT YOU ARE NOT!
    AFRICAN AMERICANS ARE NOT BLACK.
    Black is the “color” of your car tires, not your skin author. Being called “black” is a lie and it should be offensive. Haitians, Jamaicans and even Africans do not accept being called “black”, Why do you think that is? They are identified by tribes, klans, geographic areas and their respective countries. By using the very term black to describe us, we are doing the following:
    1. Using a term white oppressors and slave masters gave us.
    2. Letting someone else define us other than our own people.
    3. Calling ourselves something we are not.
    4. Buying into thee lie and the negative denotation. Check the dictionary.
    5. Being set apart in a way that no other ethnic group allows. Native Americans are not called Red Man. Asians are not called Yellow Man. Hispanics are not called Brown Man. They do not and will not accept being defined by color and by some other race or ethnic group at that.
    6. Ignoring our actual color (brown) which means brainwashing has worked. Any time someone can get an entire race, ethnic group or culture to ignore what they are and call themselves what they factually are not, THEY HAVE BEEN INDOCTRINATED, ASSIMILATED AND BRAINWASHED.
    7. Playing right into the oppressor’s profiles and stereotypes. Did you know studies show there is a different perception of black people than there is of African Americans? Words create perceptions and perceptions create actions towards us.
    WAKE UP. You know your colors. And even though others around the world equated our ancestors with the color of the soil in Africa or the meaning of negro/negroid, that does not change the fact that WE ARE BROWN – NOT BLACK.
    If you look in the dictionary or send an email to brainstormonline@yahoo.com, I will send you the research. Facts are facts and YOU ARE BROWN, NOT BLACK. When you receive the revelation of why they keep calling African Americans “black” and Caucasian people “white”, you may just wake up!
    STOP LETTING OTHER GROUPS DEFINE YOU WITH AN OBVIOUS LIE that we have heard and accepted so much that we believe it’s true and forget our colors. The de-programming has to take root or African Americans will forever be defined, limited and oppressed by those who get us to accept a lie.

    The African American church as a whole failed some time ago and we the members did not hold it accountable So the blame goes a long ways. We were content with whooping nonsense instead of being taught victory in every area the Bible addresses. We were then content with being taught by pastors who screwed everything in a skirt. Then came the prosperity pulpit pimps like Jakes, Fred Price and Dollar. We watched them make hollow promises while they got rich, bought jets, expenses houses and more.

    We defended these jokes including the gay/fag pastors and the pedophiles like Eddie Long. We were quick to believe their brainwashing and slow to study and verify the Word for ourselves. So the pastors did what they were allowed to get away with. Shame on them and shame on many of us.
