Why do you worship the white mans god? Does the white man believe your forefathers died for their sins? No! Why do you believe one white man killed by other white men died for your sins when you were not even around? Does logic elude you. Christianity is the white man's religion to enslave you all!

Religions are a cultural phenomenon set out of beliefs of those people. Choose your own be independent and respect all life!

Doesn't matter where it started, it was used by the white man to enslave people! Period.

I'm with you on setting out and being yourself and believing in yourself instead of believing what someone tells you, but why use color as a basis. Jesus wouldn't have been white and God would have no color if there was one.
Race should have nothing to do with any religion.

Wow.
You said...Choose your own be independent and respect all life!
Christians HAVE chosen their religion on their own. And that makes them happy. How are they enslaved when they are at peace in their own religion.
Some Christians have left their religion and found others. People of other faiths have left theirs to join Christianity. It is up to the individual what you choose to worship.
Now, the issue of whites...ok. Are you referring to the crusades? You are right that they killed many and tried to convert the world away from their pagan ways of life (NOT my view, for I am pagan, former christian) But have you stopped to think of the rest of history? The Egyptians enslaved the Jews for thousands of years because they believed them inferior for their religious beliefs. Were the Egyptians white?? Even the terrorist attack of 911 was claimed by religious fanatics fighting for Allah, because they believe us American hethens are so evil! If you research a little, you will find that religious wars have been waged way before Christianity came along. One thing that history has taught us is that It doesn't stop there, and it won't.

OK First of all Jesus was not "some white guy"..he in fact was not "white" at all..he was Jewish and that meant he was a darker complexion than depicted in the pictures...he wasn't killed by another "white man" he was crucified under the order of Romans who were trying to please the Jewish people...maybe it would do you some good to really study Jewish traditions and to then ask yourself why are you blinded. PS Christianity was not and does not enslave anyone...the "non white" people who serve Christ are not bound by anything.Let's take a look at Dr Martin Luther King..was he oppressed? NO... was he enslaved? certainly not..did this "white mans religion" keep him from seeking freedom from the oppressors? No...it in fact gave him the courage to stand up to people and say he would not back down and the SPIRIT of the LIVING God dwelled within him..he by the was was a reverend so get your story straight OK!!! He was Chrisitan

Where do you get it that God is just the white mans God? Jesus died on the cross for all mankind who would trust in Him for salvation. By the way Jesus was Jewish and a descendant of King David who was the King of Israel. But most importantly He was Gods son and to think God only chooses white men or women to be His children is wrong. I am thankful for the fact that He chose to provide a way for us Gentiles who by the way are all nations of people besides the Jewish nation, to be covered by His grace.

I think this question refers to the more recent history of Christianity and the use of it as an excuse/reasoning for Europeans to colonize and conquer other people's and cultures as well as a reason for executing many.

We offer hope, help and community to those people your society shuns and commits to generations of poverty and rejection. Since Hinuism insists that people like the untouchable live a crappy life, we give them the option to reject all that nonsense and live a life of joy and respect. And we help them out of poverty.

uuh, if you look into the Bible, science, and history, you will see that Adam and Eve more than likely had dark skin, or at least Tanned skin.
Jesus probably looked somewhat tanned Himself being from Nazareth....
so your theory is flawed already.
plus the bible says that there is no colour prerequisite for the kingdom of God. God made us all, loves us all, and wants salvation for us all.
Galatians 3:28
There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus

Did you think of the fact that Jesus was a middle eastern (Olive to dark brown)and NOT a European (white)

Christianity is not Western, nor is it "the white man's religion."
Christianity and Judaism are both Eastern religions, began with people of Jewish ancestry.

Hang on to your resentment, curse the white man for keeping you down, it gives you an excuse to explain your failure as a human being. It also stops you from feeling guilty about taking welfare money.
