Those are major...but to hang it on religion and pretend that one race is more religious than the other, and to think going to church does anything to raise kids right more than a caring parent is wrong in my book.
My father never set foot in church, my mother used to take us, but as time went by, none of us went anymore.....my last time was at age 15 and we have been raised with good values. All the good things I learned came from my parents and not the church or school. I feel it is up to black parents, not a book, church or school, to raise the kids.
Anyways, this is off topic, I just wanted to say that there are some assumptions in your post as much as overall it makes sense. To each their own though. :wink:

Hey blak, it may be off-topic but it's interesting commentary. How would you feel about doing a post in the 'spirituality' section on your reservations towards religion? Your reservations come clearly through your post and I think it would make a good, enlightening subject matter to hear why.
