I, unfortunately, have decided that I’m going to have to leave my church due to their unrelenting BLM support and (of course) racism towards anyone who isn’t openly supporting it. When I joined this church in 2012 it was great, it was extremely spiritual and wasn’t extremist in any sort of way. They were very open and accepting of all beliefs, and I never felt ashamed to be there.
Now the entire church is only discussing how white people need to pray on our inherent evil towards minorities. One of our ministers is a black woman who was very accepting until BLM first came into existence. After that she set up a church protest to go protest the execution of a black man who had raped and murdered a woman and her child. I was NOT down with participating with that, and really considered leaving after that incident but ultimately decided to stay. From there she and another minister made it known she was not a Trump fan and now all of the leaders there are calling all white people racist. They also just recently said even other races were racist if they didn’t support BLM.
It wasnt super obvious until these past few months, but from then on things kept becoming more extremist and unaccepting. This is not a place where people can celebrate differences in thought or beliefs.
Have any of you guys had to leave a church or a community due to the rising racism of BLM / all the other shit going on? I honestly never thought I’d be hard pressed into leaving, but I don’t feel peace or love there anymore. I don’t even know how to go about finding another place to worship because I’m sure my church isn’t the only place where this is happening.
Not a good church at all, good move on walking away.
BLM is a cult movement, it is insidious as it pretends to be doing good. However, people only need to look at what it does then it is clearly evil; divisive, violent and racist. BLM is about power over others and making them submit, as an Ex-Muslim I have seen all this before and when we were on Reddit predicted the terrorism we are now seeing.
As a brown guy, here is honestly what I see: Whites in the west really were past racism and racial identity, it is why so many western countries opened their borders. However, now the likes of BLM are pushing everyone to be hyper aware of race and they are making white people out to be evil. Based on what? Based on stuff long dead people did hundreds of years ago, stuff that other races including blacks and Arabs have also done.
BLM is pure evil, I like the west, I like white people and the shit BLM are pulling is going to hurt so many whites as well as non-whites.
I completely agree with your analysis. I’ve always lived in Atlanta and I truly never understood why or how someone could be racist towards black people or anyone else for that matter until I was in HS (2008). All of my friends and classmates were all unique in personality but we were all the same on a human level. I wish our society could go back to that time when we all judged each other on how they acted as a human.
Well said, totally agree. We are all humans and should be judged on our own actions, it took a lot of work for us to get to that and BLM is undoing it all.
Smart man here
