Wild Thing’s comment……..
Obama’s church is headed by black supremacist activist, Jeremiah Wright whose close associates are people like Nation of Islam leader, Louis Farrakhan.
The Trinity United Church of Christ, is well known as anti-Israel, anti-Jew and pro-Arab.
Substitue ‘white’ where you see black’. If a white church came out with something like this, Sharpston and Jackson would be out front with 10,000 protesters in a heartbeat.
From the website for his church:
We are a congregation which is Unashamedly Black and Unapologetically Christian… Our roots in the Black religious experience and tradition are deep, lasting and permanent. “WE ARE AFRICAN PEOPLE, AND REMAIN TRUE TO OUR NATIVE LAND”..
Trinity United Church of Christ adopted the Black Value System written by the Manford Byrd Recognition Committee chaired by Vallmer Jordan in 1981. We believe in the following 12 precepts and covenantal statements. These Black Ethics must be taught and exemplified in homes, churches, nurseries and schools, wherever Blacks are gathered. They must reflect on the following concepts:
Commitment to God
COMMITMENT TO THE BLACK COMMUNITY
COMMITMENT TO THE BLACK FAMILY
Dedication to the Pursuit of Education
Dedication to the Pursuit of Excellence
ADHERENCE TO THE BLACK WORK ETHIC
Commitment to Self-Discipline and Self-Respect
Disavowal of the Pursuit of “Middleclassness”
Pledge to make the fruits of all developing and acquired skills available to the Black Community
Pledge to Allocate Regularly, a Portion of Personal Resources for Strengthening and Supporting Black Institutions
PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO ALL BLACK LEADERSHIP WHO ESPOUSE AND EMBRACE THE BLACK VALUE SYSTEM. Personal commitment to embracement of the Black Value System.
The Pastor as well as the membership of Trinity United Church of Christ is committed to a 10-point Vision:
A congregation committed to adoration.
A congregation preaching salvation..
A congregation actively seeking reconciliation..
A congregation with a non-negotiable COMMITMENT TO AFRICA.
A congregation committed to biblical education.
A congregation committed to cultural education.
A congregation committed to the HISTORICAL EDUCATION OF AFRICAN PEOPLE IN DIASPORA.
A congregation committed to liberation.
A congregation committed to retoration.
A congregation working towards economic parity.
….Thank you Captain Dave for sending this to me.
Barack Obama and his followers refer to him as an African-American (aka black) candidate. His church is anti-white and so is he. Otherwise, he would be defining himself as a mixed race candidate of both white and black heritage.
Go to any search engine and check out the “preachings” of Jeremiah Wright. Barack Obama will not denounce and separate himself from this man. Not exactly the change I want to see in the White House.
Racism is alive and well in some of the the Black community. And I don’t really care. I just don’t want these same people to deny it and then try to shove multi culturalism down my throat and call me what they are. Their time might be better spent trying to eradicate some of the criminal activities and anarchy that overwhelm their community.
Les, I never knew about Obama’s church or Jeremiah Wright. Some how I missed all of this. That Jeremiah Wright is horrible.
Tom I agree so much. If Obama was a good man he would not want to be connected to this kind of a church. I hate this kind of thing and to bring it to the office of President is not good at all.
