Why are black people still Christian? - Lemmy.World

Christianity is a tool of oppression, used to justify slavery.

Oh, so we’re even bringing back the full cringe, fedora variant of atheism from early reddit? Cool.

I have even more personal reasons than most to hate Christianity, but this is so reductive of Christianity, black people, and the reasons why people seek out religion.

Asking why an oppressed peoples would worship the same god that their oppressors claim made them superior and tells them how to keep slaves is not an cringe question. In fact, calling questions cringe is a great thought terminating method I’d say.
