Because what i thought might happend is that super massive black holes are like in the center of the galaxy and our whole entire galaxy is getting sucked into it slowly and once it finally sucks up the whole galaxy its slowly releases atom by atom and then maybe the galaxy is recreated after that.

maybe but i highly doubt it

No, it isn't like that at all. Black holes do not suck in matter any more than anything else. People get fooled by the whole "even light cannot escape" business. But you must realize that rocks that fall onto Earth or into the Sun never escape either. Natural matter is not rocket powered and cannot escape even if the required velocity is quite low.
The only difference with a black hole is its small size, not its large gravity. A black hole with the mass of a million stars has the same gravity as a cluster of a million normal stars when seen from a distance greater than the radius of the cluster. The black hole can concentrate all the mass into a volume much smaller than the cluster is all.

campbel explanation is good although a little technical for this forum.
Think of this way. A black hole is the most efficient system in converting mater into energy. If their intake stage is called a black hole then it's output is called a quasar.
Read on.
The black holes that power quasars rotate rapidly. In fact, the fast spins make quasars emit much more light than they would if their black holes weren't spinning at all.
Quasars are the most luminous objects in the universe, pouring out hundreds of times more radiation than the Milky Way--but from a region that's smaller than our solar system. Ironically, a quasar owes its brilliance to what may seem its opposite: a black hole millions or billions of times more massive than the Sun. The black hole sits at the quasar's center and swallows gas, stars, and planets.
Before taking the final plunge, this material orbits the black hole in an accretion disk, like water spiraling around a drain. As this material falls, its gravitational potential energy gets converted into orbital energy and extreme heat. The high heat causes the material to shine so brightly that astronomers can see it across billions of light-years of space. Then the glowing material plummets into the black hole and out of sight.
So you see, there is the equilibrium. For every pound of mass that goes in there is an equivalent amount of energy that goes out. The perfect galactic grinder!

Think "STAR GATE" It's the eye and the veins arteries, capillaries where angels move within the body moving us being influenced by our beliefs of what we read and see. There are so many directions. Make WISDOM your guide. She is the teachers teacher, professors professor and the instructors instructor. Have a pleasent day. "All Her ways are pleasent." I don't believe in black holes. They don't exist to me. She does. And the black holes are Hers if they do exist so always depend on Wisdom, she'll lead into the path of love. Love Her and She will love you back.

Nope. First of all, black holes don't suck.
There is a mechanism whereby black holes can lose mass, it's called Hawking radiation. Aside from that, there is no way for anything to escape a black hole.

A black hole is a theoretical entity that cannot exist in the universe!
