Dr. Martin Luther King Jr

Overtime, I’ve gained more respect and appreciation for Dr. MLK Jr. and his unparalleled intelligence. After spending 4 to 5 hours reading the King Papers, I’ve come to think that Dr. King was not a religious man at all… he just had to go along with the times.

His constant criticisms of the church and religion has gone unnoticed by most. I listed several of these criticisms in my book Holy…

The prosperity gospel is a real problem and it's amazing to actually see someone like John speaking up about it. Many thanks to him. The video is a must see for everyone. For additional perspective on this issue, everyone should also watch Jeremiah Camara's documentary. http://www.jeremiahcamara.com/about-contradiction/

‘Contradiction’ takes a deeper look at religion in the black community

http://rollingout.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/jeremiah.jpg

In his new documentary Contradiction, Jeremiah Camara raises interesting questions about how religion is perceived in the black community. Camara recently spoke with rolling out about the basis of his film.

  When did you decide to explore religion in the black community through film?

As African Americans, questioning our faith is not something we’re accustomed to doing. In the South especially, it’s not uncommon to recruit others to join our churches and spend our Wednesdays and Sundays worshiping and fellowshipping. It was within this religiously charged atmosphere that I decided to write two books, create the Slave Sermons video series and later create a documentary dealing with the psychological impact of faith in the Black community.

  Why has the black community always relied on the black church?

There was a time where the only place that Blacks could turn to was the institution of the church. However, it was not the inherent properties of religion that helped Blacks gain various ground in America but religion’s ability to unite people in fighting a common cause. Understandably, the church is like an old friend that has served Blacks well throughout times when nothing else did. But, despite this legacy, there comes a time when Blacks must be open to meeting new friends such as the “institution” of logic, reason and freethinking.

  Do the majority of blacks have a true sense of what they are worshiping and why they are doing so?

Study and research has repeatedly indicated that believers are less knowledgeable about their religious faith than non-believers. I’ve asked hundreds of people about the origins of their beliefs and very few actually knew. There are only four basic factors in determining one’s beliefs: geographical location, tradition, historical circumstances and accessibility. Essentially, we believe what we do because our enslavers, who practiced Christianity, demanded that we adopt their faith.

  How has religion been used to divide and conquer?

Religion is the transport system into the psychology of people. It appeals to our greatest fears and hopes, so it’s relatively easy to manipulate people through their beliefs. Currently, there are approximately 100,000 predominately Black churches in the United States but there is practically no business ownership in any of the surrounding areas. There are really no Black communities (only Black neighborhoods) in the U.S. and Blacks own less than one-half of one-percent of the entire wealth of this nation. Religion teaches people that individual salvation is more important than group salvation. We are conditioned to have “personal relationships” with God. This is the antithesis of the African axiom that says, “It takes a village to raise a child.”

  What are the most positive things that religion has done for the black community?

While enslaved, Blacks needed to construct monuments of hope. Religious faith was once a vital ingredient. Having the hope that one day a savior would come to the rescue and eliminate all the suffering was a psychological necessity. But, there’s an Asian proverb that says, “To maintain a spiritual belief system that once served you in the past is to carry the raft on your backs after you have crossed the river.”

  What is the overall goal for this film?

In making the film, my intent was never to convert, proselytize or change believers into non-believers. One of the main objectives was to present the information with a spirit of respect — not being condemnatory towards anyone’s beliefs. I think we accomplished that. Despite this approach, there is no doubt that many viewers will feel the discomfort of cognitive dissonance. I think Contradiction is an important film because it creates a historical and cultural context to better understand the effects of religion in modern society. Contradiction forces us to confront many nonsensical aspects about our beliefs while challenging our assumptions and fostering a long overdue dialogue about faith.

Contradiction (trailer)

Jeremiah Camara travels across the country to explore the impact of faith in African American communities. Camara addresses the paradox of the abundance of churches coupled with the abundance of societal ills and whether there is a correlation between high-praise and low-productivity. via

We become what we speak, and we remain as children when we continue to speak as children. A common argument to this is that God is our father, and we are his children and should communicate with our father as a child would to his father. How have these helpless pleas with pitiful victim overtones benefited us when it comes to black productivity? Much of the language that our preachers encourage us to possess, only perpetrates our needy "Lord, help me" outlook on life. We have to know that we possess godlike abilities and are capable of achieving anything. this should be easy to accept since we have been taught that, "In God all things are possible" (Mark 10:27)

Jeremiah Camara

[codelens-blog]

Religious belief and imperialistic agendas go hand-in-hand. In order to break the cycle of ecclesiastical enslavement, one must be willing to challenge the status quo, particularly in areas pertaining to psychological bondage. As long as religion exists, there will be fear, powerlessness, dependency, separatism, imperialism and delusion. Until we (the conquered) understand how we arrived at where we are in terms of our beliefs and how our beliefs perpetuate social impotence, we will continue to be the bottom-feeders of the world. There is no divine plan behind the equation of conqueror over conquered. The meek have not inherited anything and the last have not finished first.

Jeremiah Camara, from his essay "How the 'God' Game Works". 

Camara is the author of the books Holy Lockdown: Does the Church Limit Black Progress? and The New Doubting Thomas: The Bible, Black Folks, and Blind Belief.

Our current predicament reveals our childlike nature... Consider our childlike language in the very things we desire god to do, such as "lead me on," "watch over me," "guide me," "walk with me, "deliver (child birth) me," "save me," "you said you would," "mold me," "comfort me," "do with me as you will," and "hold my hand." Such requests, regardless of whom they are directed toward, are bound to have a subliminal effect on the subconscious.

[wisdomorganic]

The church has very subtly denounced brainpower, but we take full advantage of the multitude of conveniences it brings into our lived. We are riding on the backs of great thinkers, those people did not receive all of their knowledge or inspiration from the bible.

Our current predicament reveals our childlike nature. Consider our childlike language in the very things we desire God to do such as "lead me on," "watch over me', "guide me," "walk with me," deliver (child birth) me," "save me," "you promised me that you would never leave me," "you said you would mold me," comfort me," do with me as you will," and "hold my hand." such requests, regardless of whom they are directed toward, are bound to have a subliminal effect on the subconscious.

[wisdomorganic]

One over-used filler and irresponsible remark by Black preachers many of us have heard is "I don't care how smart you are, how much you think you know or how many degrees you have, if you don't have Jesus, you don't have nothing." that remark is dangerous becasue it lets us off the intellectual hook. one may interpret it as meaning we do not necessarily need science, math, geography, physics and art as long as we've got Jesus. This kind of preaching can have harmful implications. Why would a preacher utter such language to a people once prohibited by law from learning to read?
