I know you will probably say "They're not real Christians"
You dont have the right to say what others dont believe.
over a million Christians can't be just putting on an act
Christianity for many blacks is deeply rooted from slavery

The word "****a" has nothing to do with religion or Christianity, and in THAT form, isn't racist or negative in any way shape or form... unlike the *****R version, so what are you getting at?
If people CHOOSE to pretend that word hasn't taken on a NEW spelling and definition among some black people, that your choice and your bad, because every time someone whines about the word spelled with *gga, it empowers white racists who have used the other ER version to continue using it because it still bugs. No one is going to stop.
Other changes words:
Pimpin= doesn't mean "pimping-living off the avails of prostitution, it means something NICE, good and sick, like "pimp my ride" make it fancy
Sick (sik)- no longer just means not feeling well with a temp or vomiting... it means NICE- GOOD TIGHT
Bad- good, Dope= good or nice.
Time to step your mind game up to 2007. Quit empowering haters.
Be easy.
*Rap is the only music I listen to, pretty much . Share an exampIe of rappers using that word in a hateful way (or racist way).... they don't use it in a hateful way. They use the ****a version, which is like "homie" or more of an affectionate or non racial term, they don't use ****R-. Just like you don't hear white racists saying "F all ****as!!", they say ER.
2 words, 2 meanings.

I think that is an educational thing.
Some studies have shown that people who live in dangerous areas or work in dangerous jobs use more profane language as a sort of armor: it shows people that you are "tough" without you having to actually fight. I know when I worked midnight shift at a convenience store, i started to swear like nobody's business (not that word, or the c-word, but I was pretty bad). As a result, people basically thought I could kick their butts when really I'm a big marshmallow.
Now, there is, like it or not, a correlation between dogmatic religiosity and a lack of education. (I know VERY intelligent and HIGHLY educated Christians, but they aren't dogmatic.) There is also a correlation between higher eduation and atheism.
So my guess is that those Christian Blacks who you have heard using that word are living or working in conditions that may necessitate that facade of "toughness," whereas the Black atheists you know are probably more highly educated and therefore less likely to need to make people think they're "tough" by using tough language.

I've heard black muslims use it. You must not live around very many. Or maybe you think they're not real muslims?
UPDATE: I've heard a lot of gospel rap and I have never heard that word used in any gospel rap song. Are you sure you know what it means to be a Christian?

Self respect and sense of self apart from what Europeans forced on their ancestors. Once you let go of the ties and begin to respect yourself and appreciate and understand history, you define yourself in ways that don't degrade you or those like you.
I'm a firm believer that NO American person of African descent should EVER be a christian... but too many are because they simply don't know their history. But hey, what do I know, besides that we weren't christian when we were brought over here?

Trying to cause racial division in the lowest class way. I've never heard a Christian use that word, in fact I haven't heard hardly anyone use it, except black people, which I think is as wrong as you are.
