Christians live in a delusion. There are innocent children dying of starvation all over the world this very second, yet, many Christians are on their knees begging God to help them pay for their Range Rovers. That’s flat-out selfishness. What makes them think they're so special? Think about that. They’re just being told they’re special in order to keep the money rollin’ in every Sunday morning, and God is sitting there watching them make lying, self-serving fools of themselves. Because God knows the truth - he knows that if they actually loved him over themselves they’d simply live a Godly life instead of always running around flappin’ their lips about it to anybody who's crazy enough to listen. Who are they trying to convince?
Your Bible says the following:
“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen.”- MATTHEW 6
I was raised a Christian and baptized by Black conservative evangelist, Rev. E.V, Hill, Sr. But I left the church after becoming so fed-up with listening to all the lying hypocrites that I had to either get out of there or throw up all over the pulpit. I had to make a decision, to either accept man’s lunacy about walking dead men and talking snakes, or to follow the common sense that God gave me. Well, I chose God, and then I walked out of that church never to returned.
I wanted to believe that nonsense, because everyone I loved believed it, but I just couldn’t - God had blessed me with far too much common sense. So again, as I said – I had a choice of rather to have "faith" in the lying word of man, and live my life trying to tell God a lie he hadn't already heard to try to get myself into Heaven, or listen to the mind bestowed upon me by God himself. So I chose God over man, and I walked out of the church a free man. I no longer had to pretend to believe in Voodooistic nonsense. The truth had set me free.
Since that time, I've done a lot of thinking about religion, and I've come to the conclusion that the world would be a lot better off if everybody would just live their beliefs and mind their own business. There are over 4200 different religions on Earth. So who's to say which one is right? I say none of them are. People simply believe what they were raised to believe, and then they spend their entire lives trying to shove their beliefs down everybody else's throat. That's why there is so much hatred in the world. Religion is the source of 99% of all the murder, hatred, and mayhem in the world today. Look at what's going on in the Middle East.
Life could really be simple. If you love God, just keep your mouth shut and live like it. I don't see what's so hard about that. I don't want nobody teaching my kids what to think about God while they’re at school, for example. When I was coming up, the very people who were running around talking about "Praise the Lord" were the exact same people who were lynching Black people - and the so-called "good Christians" weren't saying a word. And they’re doing the exact same thing today, letting people starve to death on the street, and putting children in cages, while they're buying preachers big houses and expensive cars in order to try to bribe their way into Heaven. I have no time for that nonsense. Such people are living in a delusion, and using the name of God to justify their selfishness. It’s a disgusting thing to watch.
So their so-called “religion” has nothing to do with either morals, benevolence, or Christ. Jesus is just mentioned in passing in an attempt to keep deluding themselves into believing they have a so-called deal with God. But their true religion is based on selfishness, greed, and fear, and it’s actually a deal with the Devil.
That explains how Christians found a way to overlook slavery, managed the wholesale slaughter of ten generations of Native Americans, and found a way to justify the commission of any and all forms of evil that happened to be convenient to provide for their comfort. They’ve currently deemed it acceptable to demonstrate in the street to defend their right to be armed to the teeth with some of the most deadly weapons on Earth, and overrun state houses demanding the right to pass on a deadly disease to their neighbors, for example. Yet when a lying and self-serving demagogue takes children away from their parents and lock them in cages, all we hear from these precious children of God are crickets.
There’s a simple reason why these so-called “God-fearing children of God” can justify all of these ungodly acts - because their religious beliefs are based on pure bullshit, and if they’re right about the hereafter, they’re in for a huge surprise. It’s no accident that that Evangelical Christians are some of Donald Trump’s most enthusiastic supporters – because they’re among the most Godless people in America, and in the end they’re gonna be slammed into Hell so hard they’re gonna be bouncing off the walls.
I’ve always understood that fact. When I was raising my kids I had to tell my extended family not to bring that nonsense into our presence, because I didn't want them polluting the minds of my children with that Voodoo-inspired ignorance. As a result, I now have a daughter, a son, and 5 grandchildren who are ethical, and completely efficient and logical thinkers. Their lives are completely free of all manner of demons, goblins and "evil spirits". They see evil for what it is - ignorance. If you go up to any one of my kids or grandchildren talking about talking snakes and walking dead men, they'd look at you like you’re wearing a Voodoo doll around your neck, and I’m more proud of that than I am anything else I’ve accomplished in my life.
They were raised to believe that you do what's right because it's right to do what's right, not to try to get into Heaven or be rewarded in some kind of way. Living to try to "go to Heaven" doesn't make you a good person, it makes them selfish person; and that’s not loving God, that’s trying to get something for yourself. That’s what makes these people so easy to spot - they’re always either begging God to do something for them, or bragging about what he's already done for them as a reward for being so wonderful, as they applaud Trump for putting more children in cages. I mean, what people are these who can’t see evil staring them in the face? Do they really think God is going to bless their hypocrisy!!!? Oh, yes! These people are deluded.

Religion: It's not that I hate everyone who doesn't look, think, and act like me - it's just that God does.
