					<description><![CDATA[@James Davis...I don&#039;t need to be checked, but there are some facts you need to check.  3 weeks before Freddie Gray was arrested, that Mosby chick ordered additional officers to patrol that area because of the heavy drug trafficking.  Freddie was there to do what all drug dealers do:  SELL DRUGS!  

If the 6 officers accused of Freddie Gray&#039;s murder are guilty, then yes, they deserve to go to jail.  But what made Freddie run in the first place?  If he wasn&#039;t doing anything wrong/illegal, then he should have remained where he was.  Only the guilty and confused run from the police.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I have enough trouble keeping myself straight and do not want to waste time with false prophets. The Bible stated that they exist so it should be no surprise to any of us. As it was also stated that the poor will be with us always, so shall it be with liars and the antichrist. There is none among us that is perfect as we all have sinned and fallen short of God&#039;s glory. To find God&#039;s will is an individual objective towards spirituality as one must find Him on a personal basis. This world is full of hypocrites and those that use others to attain personal fame and gain. No one has to be a victim unless they allow themselves to be. Due to the fact that alot of people can not or will not think for themselves, there will always be those that will take advantage of the situation and use the Bible scriptures in the wrong context to get what they want. All I can do is pray that it never happens to me or those that I love. Peace out, Papacool.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[It&#039;s funny, Jesus reason to move on from Judaism was too much business as usual(hoarding riches,taking advantage of the poorer members financially,spiritually, physically). I live for the Spirit of God. It led me away from institutions and more towards personal enlightenment. When you study the formation of Christianity much of what African American Christians practice as Christian faith was based upon nation state political idealogy. Whether it was the Romans(Constantine), the colonialists, or others Christianity was used as a form of classification of cultures these nation states wanted to dominate. So, to solely base your faith in an institution can be shown as a lack of enlightenment at most,denial at best.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[When you distort and confuse the truth with misleading statements, you should be called out! 

@ jdean: Sure,I have an agenda and I’m not ashamed of it. I want to see African Americans become economically independent and see these high black unemployment rates fall below 10 percent permanently. Visit my blog and look up the subject “Behind the Numbers” and you will find our unemployment rate increased to 10.2 percent last month. The highest rate the nation reached was 10.0 percent back in October, 2009 and from there, the national rate receded to 5.5 percent.  We have been over 10.0 percent for seven years. Please excuse me for having an agenda! As far as my belief in God, I think you better check yourself about who you are calling a fool. God who created the universe and you also, weighted in on who He thinks is a fool!
Psalms 14:1
1 (To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.) The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

When it comes to you, “If the shoe fits, then wear it.”

@ toomanygrandkids:  You had better check yourself! You should determine what you want to be; one who upholds rogue and corrupt police men and women or a  flip-flopper.  Here are your comments regarding Freddie Gray: The piece was titled; Baltimore From Charm City to Deadly City
toomanygrandkids says:	
“It has been reported that Freddie Gray was a heroin dealer and his mom was a heroin addict for at least 20 years. So yeah, most likely Freddie Gray’s lifestyle may have eventually caught up with him.”

Here in your comments, you admit police men and women can be corrupt, but not when it comes to Freddie Gray! What&#039;s up with that?

@ Marque Anthony:
Thank you for naming names. I did not see my church pastor or my church among those names. To my Christian brothers and sisters who happen to read this piece and these comments, did you see your pastor or your church among those names?  However, for those who may read this piece, I want to  also give you a name. This is the name of a church which upholds and preaches the Gospel of Jesus Christ ( as if there are none) as it is laid out in the Holy Bible. It is the church I attend and am a member of and it is where I have taught a Bible study class for ten years. Visit with us: New Salem Primitive Baptist Church in Central Florida.

					<description><![CDATA[James you are entirely missing the point. READING IS FUNDAMENTAL and comprehension is even better. My article clearly states that accountability is for everybody, whether I list names or not. If I did give names, you likely would have complained about that as well by saying I was judging them. You can&#039;t have it both ways - names and no names. But in case you think I am making a blanket indictment, let me correct you and provide names.

Ministers who are teaching false prosperity doctrine include Jessy Duplantis, Kenneth Copeland, Creflo Dollar, Marilyn Hickey Ministries, Paula White, Jerry Savelle, Peter Popoff. Now, feel better James?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[There&#039;s more corruption, lying, cheating, and criminals among the so-called holy than regular criminals on the street.  In fact, pastors and members of the congregation aid and protect criminals just like corrupt, dirty cops.  For years and till this day, blacks overlook and accept this type of behavior.  Most even remain church members.  IMO, the black church is the devil&#039;s playground for the wicked to do whatever they please.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[James Davis you are the exact person the article talks about.  You obviously have an agenda based on your website at the bottom.  Jesus Christ and the religious concept was made up by Europeans to enslave the world. Idiot.  You are still falling for it in 2015.  There is tons of proof just google it about the falsehood of Christianity.  Dont knock you for what you believe but if you believe in fairy tales like Santa Claus and that wrestling is real.  What does that make you? A Kid!!!LOL  Stop being a follower and get some real education. Fool(In my Ice Cube Voice)]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This piece is misleading, and is deceptive propaganda when its comes to Christianity!

1) The writer does not name any specific pastor or church. It appears to be a blanket attack against Christianity without one iota of factual evidence.  Name names and tell us specifically which pastor has said what and what is wrong with that pastor’s message. Don’t indict religion generally. Don&#039;t take one pastor or so called church and imply this is true of all churches.  

2) He fails to tell his readers just because a person puts church on a building and calls him or herself a pastor that this individual has been recognized by Jesus Christ as one of his disciples. The Holy Bible warns on several occasions about and true believers should in the course of studying the Bible become aware of false teachers. They distort the teaching of Jesus Christ much like this piece does.   

3) Blanketing a religion with any allegation shows poor judgment and is hurtful to many people who look to religion to find meaning in their life. This is especially true of many of our youngsters who may read a piece like this and get the wrong impression. They may get turned off when it comes to learning the ways of Jesus Christ. If that happens, that would be a tragey.  

In conclusion, let me set the record straight as a believer in Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ has laid out the truth to us in the Holy Bible when it comes to understanding life and the world around us. Whether we choose to believe and develop a relationship with Him is a matter for each individual to work out for himself or herself. It is the most crucial decision of your life. When making any decision of great importance, research and get the facts. When you do that, you too will conclude that what this writer is attempting to do and encourage is the minimization of the teaching of Jesus Christ. There are many churches which teach and reflect the true message and meaning of the Holy Bible as I attend one.
