New Pastor Manning - "The BlackMan does not Understand the world and Obama is not Black". This is sad, funny, and some parts are true...but mostly just funny.

But he said that black people don't understand the world, according to him a black man with a medical degree and a common criminal has the same level of understanding of how the world works. Is this true?

you can watch the very funny video here:

According to him the black man didnt build anything above 1 storey and nothing in stone before the white man came. And Egypt is not in Africa.

But this is what a christian education can do to you.

I'm glad he is doing that in the role of a Black Christian minister.

Egypt isn't in Africa???

I hate to have to say it but the Black churches usually came across as dumber than the White Catholic church that I stopped attending decades ago.

Is that whole thing supposed to be a comedy? Too stupid for funny to me.

um

don't amuse this monkey(not the poster...but this so called Rev.)



he's a clown who eventually will regret his coon ways...


and yep...i called him a monkey and a coon

Well he is factually incorrect. Africa did use to have some very prosperous countries before colonialism. As for saying that Egypt is not a part of Africa that really is a stupid or a very ignorant thing to say.

He made a valid point about corruption today and about the way that some African countries are progressing today but it is hard to take him seriously because what he said was full of inaccuracies.

Maybe some black people do feel inferior to white people in some way but not every black person is like this.

As for his attack on Obama that was pretty lame.

Exactly, this dude simply needs to be ignored. I've seen many of his videos and I get the feeling he's on the payroll more than anything else.

This attention whore's aim is just to get a rise out of the community and nothing more. When Obama ignored him after he insulted his (Obama's) family and called Obama a half breed, he made some video trying to taunt Obama even more, as if Obama would even dignify this coon with a response. He thrives on getting folks angry, therefore the best weapon against him is silence and to not rise to the bait. Eventually this filthy dog will get tired and stop barking.

Thats what I'm saying, the church started that whole attack on our culture bit but have long since it up only for the Black chruch to affectionately take its place and expound on their euro centric trash in our countries all in the name of religion.... shame on them for real.

Bunch of ill minded attention seekers.

My, my my . . .

That this “preacher” is a buffoon is a self-evident fact that requires little discussion. However, what is more interesting than the religious idiot on display is how some of the Village intelligentsia have gone on record to declare him
1) Representative of Black Christianity, or
2) A product of a “Christian Education”

Moreover, above, the Black Church is referred to as “dumb” and the preachers associated with it are “ill minded attention seekers.” Wow!

Herein lies the problem with responding to or even taking the time to reflect on the words of a fool, the respondent is unwittingly drawn into an infinitely regressive slippery slope of inductive reasoning and blanket condemnation, all the while experiencing an indescribable feeling of superiority for exposing the fool. I believe that this can be best described as the “scapegoat” effect.

A credible African American scholar once said that African Americans have really only had three longstanding and enduring institutions since our arrival in America: nightclubs, hair salons/barber shops, and the church. That’s right, these are our big three. The church is clearly a great paradox in the lives of African Americans. On the one hand, it has raped, maimed and destroyed African lives and lifestyles in the name of Christianity. On the other hand, it set the captives free, fed the poor Black masses and was at the forefront of the Civil Rights Movement.

Don’t get me wrong, I am the last one to defend the harms of European White Supremacy as manifested through its spiritual arm called the Church but I’ll be d—mned if I’m going to stand by on the virtual eve of the inauguration of America’s first Black President and let heads piss on the institution that produced Nat Turner, Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, Jarena Lee and MLK, just to name a few.

The act of associating the demagogue of “Atlah” with mainstream Black Christianity only proves that some cats have neglected to do their homework on African American spirituality. But, of course, perhaps I have misunderstood some of what is written above or maybe the above is the product of some cruel New Year’s Eve joke being played on African Americans. If I am in error, please accept my apologies.

Deuces on both . . .

Happy New Year!

Where is your evidence that the church produced them?

What if there is another explanation? Maybe the church just can't sabotge some souls.

um

right on brother....the epitome of an imbecile...this joker is just trying to draw a crowd...unlike peterson, the white folk won't come out in front for this dope..

how can the church be blamed for this dumb azz just because he is seen ranting and babbling in one church building? idiots often get through the cracks and end up saying things that are so asinine that the school, institution, organisation will be questioned as being legitimate.

jessi jackson has basically evolved into a babbling fool and was behing the microphone supposively commenting on the obama campaign...should we say that who ever gave a mic to jessi supports his rantings?

the church does have some fools who grace the podium as do all bully pulpits..

does not suprise me BG, what does is that he would be speaking in front of black people. who ever selected this dolt as speaker is suspect....big time...

i had not heard of him...thank God....

Isn't it somewhat representive of the non sence pastors spew about African religions in order to keep their seats full and their people digesting food from their troff?

According to you the church helped liberate us but who had a hand in our enslavement in the first place? Didn't the church invest in it all? Whos missionaries who entroached upon Africa with the intent to crucify and divide us? Yet they helped us while destorying our minds and further tearing us from ourselves in the process... if our cause had been headed by a group intrested in preserving our culture rather than the church where would we be? Minus the, ''safe negro'' badge to grant us pass into their faulse utiopia? We'd still be fighting for our freedom and basic rights... no diffrent than we are now.

It seems only religious institutions can get away with mass murder and continue with the same drivel 500 years later. Go to any Black Church and its the same thing, if you want to be christian thats fine but as someone whos intrested in culture and so on I resent it when people think they have the right to debase anothers culture in favor of their own want for membership as it were... goes against their teachings and shows their true nature in my opinion.

Dear Mr. Umbrarchist,

Evidence? Why on earth would I feel compelled to present “evidence” when my original claims have yet to be called into question? It is one thing to interject the idea of alternate causality into a discussion, it is entirely another to back it up with specific ideas and practical examples; something you failed to do. None of my claims are controversial and all of them are well attested to by mainstream African American scholarship, current and old. Make your case for what other American, African American, or African institutions generated Black leaders in America and I will respond accordingly. When and if this discussion ever reaches the practical plain of existence where the lives of Black people are hanging on our every word, then, let’s present our evidence. In the meantime, I only ask of others what I am prepared to do myself: be specific and use example.

By the way, you have always intrigued me: in your cryptic, almost poetic queries, with very little you always manage to say so much. Your illuminating reflections on science and technology are only out done by your witty and dryly sardonic witticisms on science fiction and religion (especially the hypocrisy that often accompanies the latter of the two).

I must say, however, that I have never met a disgruntled Catholic of any ethnic background who did not leave the Catholic Church with a hair up their respective asses regarding the relevance and authenticity of all organized religion. Hence, I will take your criticisms with a grain of salt understanding that you just can’t help yourself.

Respect!

um,

my journey is far less impressive or as complicated as your's.

had good grades at my all black school. my sister used to play teacher with me and taught me my alphabets and counting before i entered school. ended up being a very impressive first grader.

no religious studies there.

only other thing of note was in 1967 when the white people were trying to ward off desegragation i was asked to attend their school to give them to quota of blacks to keep from having to mix. i declined, i think about 6 went and two years later the decree was ordered i think.

when i left home to go to college i had determined to never go to a church again. but it was a part of freshman orientation to attend bible study every Saturday morning. I went the first time and found that the class was so large that a roll call was impossible. there was a roster passed around and you just had to sign. I had several girls who would check for me to make sure my name was signed off and never went again.

i did have an incident in Biology though that stirred something in me. Dr. Yada an Indian made mention of the Big Bang in the lec. that day. I went home thinking about it and it was still on my mind when one of my room mates came home with some pretty strong grass.

around 8:00 that evening we had a pretty livily discussion going on. a couple of law student friends were there and I think it was Kant or Descartes quote of "I think therefore I am that got things going hot". In the course of the discussion i could never resign myself to accept that the big bang could have been the beginning. my simple little old country mind was telling me that in order for their to be an explosion of the order they were tending to make us accept their had to be something in existance. i still am hung up on that.

my religious education took place late in life as I never did church seriously until around '86. went to an non traditional baptist church where a guy was taking the bible line by line, precept by precept and explained the bible to where it began to make sense to me. and taught us how to study for ourselves. one thing you will notice still in most churches is that many preachers do not incourage to congregation to bring bibles to church or study for themselves. when they do a sermon it is mostly read off paper with the bible lying underneath.

the majority of christian 'sermons' on sunday is mostly good advice and words to comfort the sinners about how God loves them inspite of their faults. that setting is for bible instructions so that we believers can be able to minister in our daily lives by example and sometymes discussion. we do a terrible job of that as a whole. when i go out witnessing, it is sometimes way down in the conversation before i can give one scripture.

not long ago i got tied up with a couple of muslims and we went on and on about what the bible said. they kept bringing up what they thought were bible quotes and could not find one. and after they had the chance i would find the scripture that they had gotten mixed up or taken out of context. but they were still dogmatic about islam. i believe islam does more teaching about what the bible says and does not say than they do the koran.

i think science and christianity can co exist. science sometimes takes strong faith to believe in what you are trying to develop or discover just as it is the life blood of christianity...

"this is true" an old friend used to say without qualification at the drop of a hat...

on faith...it is very dangerous to put trust in anything. blind faith anyway...you have all types of examples of people who put their faith in men, nations, armies, riches and a great example for just now is the stock market...not many people would have kept from laughing if you had tried to warn them of a catastrophe occurring as it has globally like it has this time last year.

the mere number that one man has been suggested to have cost people who had faith in his dealing with the system for them...$50,000,000,000.00

they say he played the confidence game so well that he was always telling them that he was not taking anymore clients...thus the people who were already in with him were made to feel that they had power and influence with this "great" man to be able to convince him to take them on at their behest.

how many suicidal sects have gotten men destroyed over the centuries? jim jones comes to mind easily and there are certainly those who were not christians. how many men were led to destruction because they went on quests sang into their souls by confidence men about riches and adventure? and on and on it goes, putting faith in a thing or person is not a thing to be done lightly to be sure.

I love my wife, but because i have lived with her and know that she is capable of failure and falling for the illusion i do not totally trust not questioning some things with her and i am sure it is the same with her. as we grow old and feeble it will be of necessity that will have to. but as you will see later it will be with our trust being in a higher calling that we can entrust our being to each other at that time (but there is no person that has anything close to the trust that i do have for her). i loved my parents and can say that as a young boy i trusted every thing that they told me until i left home. i still had respect to them but my mother would always tell her friends that he is respectful but he is going to do what he wants to. and i was honest with them when they asked me what i did in any situation, and it hurt at first but they began to appreciate the honesty that we had.

i do not trust the government, my employer, my children, any organization or what ever in most things. to some degree i have to deal with a measure of faith in them but i am prepared for anything at all times.

But i can say this, that there is one thing that I have full trust and confidence in, even blind faith to no end. and that is my faith in Jesus Christ as my savior. i am not ashamed to tell you or anyone that i believe as i do. i do not fear telling any one such. i am not worried about what that makes you think of me as a person.

the matter has been tried and satisfied in my spirit which as i said has alway been unafraid and a questioning one. so it is with complete confidence that i can relay that without reservation to people who far out excel me in knowledge and intellect.

one thing i do know for sure as you were talking about scientist who get carried away possibly, i have learned that some of the most brilliant men of learning lack one thing that could put them off the chart so to speak...common sense or mother wit as some in our community used to say.

peace brother um...
