I need to rescue my people from this deadly belief system
1. Christianity is ruining my people
2. They have to be converted or they'll go exstinct
3. I must start a massive converting process

They are the most superstitious (look at whom all the psychic hot-lines were aimed at) and they are the most financially deprived (complex problem). Black Americans should cast off their superstitions and form self educational programs aimed at giving their children and themselves a leg up economically.

Start a black Gnostic revival.
I'm not sure that the crime rate is related to the religion - there might be some other correlated factors, such as the fact that they were enslaved for 200 years and then institutionally repressed for another century, or maybe some other reason.
But a black Gnostic movement would be really cool, and would confuse the heck out of pretty much every other demographic.
(In case you wondered, Gnostics believe Jehovah is the bad guy and created the world as a cruel joke; Christ is good, and sent the serpent to free mankind from Jehovah's flawed Creation. The goal is to acquire secret wisdom and escape our "false" reality into the real reality. It's very Matrix-esque; you could re-invent Christ as Lawrence Fishburne/Morpheus.)

Economic hardship/poverty is responsible for crime in the black community, it has nothing to do with faith.
So are you suggesting we can continue to have the crappiest schools in the black community, discriminate against them for all the good jobs, etc. and as long as we get rid of their religion, they'll be ok? Cool....let me call the government officials and let them know that we can go ahead and continue to disregard the black community.

Have you noticed that atheists have a very, very low crime rate? Continue in your efforts to educate the Black Americans. Ignorance is what is killing us all.
Are you familiar with The Infidel Guy? He's a very positive role model for all atheists, and he is black.

The devoted ones that are Christian are very few. Most do not go to church or read the bible and those are the ones that are doing the crimes.

Both are triggered by the lower average income. If you are poor, you like to believe that there are a higher source of power. If you are poor you also tend to have a higher crime rate.
But they are not necessarily interrelated.
