What should I do about racism in church?

Well it’s only a problem I’ve dealth with in Indonesia not anywhere else…

I sit down at church and once in a while the pastor will make a joke about black people…

He’d make america as an example that black people can’t be anything in life…Ironic isn’t it…as their current president is black…

Me myself being black/asian/islander…feel well??What am I suppossed to feel when everybody laughs at the joke and accepts it…Excuse me?WHO gave him the right to say that…in God’s Church of all places!I felt like stoning him alive lol..no im sorry I mean seriously !Seriously get me some stones!

I mean what am I supposed to do…it’s in the culture here to be more white and less black…what the hells going on???I experience open racism in schools and streets I can put up with that anywhere…racism is just a reality that I face as a black woman…BUT IN CHURCH>>>UNACCEPTABLE!!

I don’t know whether asians in general like to be more white I;d never generalize but THATS WHAT I SEE …it’s like the phillipines too…all these colonialist bull thats been passed over unto us to make us think in a certain way.

WHat can I do to make my church realize it’s not right.WHy they so blind??

Answer #1

The first thing would be to leave this church you have gone to. Surely that isn’t a church anymore, it is simply a sect. A place where false, preachers of the holy bible tarnish the Word. Look for a real church that preaches the real gospel…if you find none, then you can conclude that in your region there is no house of God. And if that is indeed true, which I somewhat find hard to believe, then you might as well stay home and follow the Word of God on your own, straight from the bible, unaltered by human lies.

As to what you can do to make your church realize that it is not right, there isn’t much I can advise you on. Except maybe trying to convince the priest, or shepherd, that his preaching against other humans that God himself has created is as good as committing sin. For he is judging God’s work. Though, that has a small percentage of working to your advantage.

Answer #2

No I think I know what to do now…

Yes…when the pastors is in the middle of making a racist joke…

Answer #3

whats the point of racisim??? god made black people and white people and everything in between! we are all equal in the eyes of god so why arent we in the eyes of those created by god? its beyond me, but everything negative was put there for a positive outcome

Answer #4

Both me and my religion are against racism. It does nothing except cause fear, hostility, and violence. What this man is saying is nothing but pure hatred. I’m also a big believer in karma, and trust me, what goes around comes around.

Answer #5

Let God handle it…

Answer #6

If the pastor makes racist comments in church he is not called by God to preach. You need to leave the church and find another church to worship at.
