I’m more concerned that the priest went to hell instead of heaven.

I'm fairly certain that if hell existed, 90% of all clergy in history would end up there.

Don’t be a judgmental prick who diddles children. It’s pretty simple.

Sadly that wasn't import enough to make it into the 10 commandments.

Have you read Dante's Divine Comedy? When traversing the layers of hell with his guide Virgil, he finds out that a LOT of popes are stacked on top of each other in a burning hole within hell. Every time a pope enters hell he is shoved into this hole upside down with only his feet remaining visible. When Dante approaches, the pope on top automatically assumed that Dante is a pope as well, who will burn with them.

Clearly he listened to Rihanna enough to recognize it, straight to hell.

The pastor happens to be black.

That being said, I'm not saying he can't be racist against black people.

He could also be racist against other races.

Anyone who says black people can't be racist is an idiot.

Ooh, this is an interesting one. So I'm Black, and what non-Black people see as "internal racism," we refer to as "tokenism." This manifests itself in various ways, but usually in some form of colorism, cultural annihilation/rejection, or other ways to distance oneself from being "Black". It's interesting because these individuals usually align themselves (almost exclusively) with racist whites so that they may prove that THEY are different. That they should be seen differently because they reject any cultural Blackness, therefore, you should see them for who they are, not a preconceived notion of who they are based on stereotypes associated with ski tone..which should just be the basline for any group of people seeing as how no ethnic group is a monolith.

Racism does have a systemic component, though. Internalized racism only helps the individual participating in it (Clarence Thomas, Candace Ownes, etc). It does nothing to serve marginalized groups as a whole. Even if all Black or Latin or Asian people in America legitimately hated white people, that has no impact on say, their ability to get loan, get a job, or get a fair offer when listing their homes on the market. But when the ruling or majority has these opinions about races, those ripples are felt in almost every aspect of life, which is the cornerstone of institutionalized racism.

I say all that to say, yes Black people can absolutely be racist, but it's affects are localized and only harms their respective communities.

Also, this "pastor" is buggin and likely blaming Riri because he's into some nasty shit...which I'm hoping will be exposed VERY soon.

Good discussion!

Priest; "that Umbrella song is a visitation from HELL!"

Me; "So you've never been forced to listen to boring 2 hour sermons yet?"

Pretty sure most members of organized religion will end up in hell if it's real
