churches

THIS has been bothering me for a while , I'm not  trying to offend any body ,but I think that every one of us is in the world becuase there is something for every one of us , so how about everyone stops trying to make others feel small because of their beliefs and try to acommodate those belief especially iinside the churches. I  had an arguement with a pastor ,because I refuse to let  go of my african beliefs , alot of people say the young african no longer remember who they are due to hip hop and all , but have we stopped to think maybe the english bible has also had some contribution to that confusion  ,I'm not saying that some of our practices are right , but what about the values? ,the things that connects us to one another ,ancestors have been a source of comfort to africans for generations , and now we being told that they evil,I'm sorry is'nt the holy ghost an ancestor?.I'm probably going to hell for this  ,but I refuse to let my culture shrink in front of a culture that does nothing but confuse africans into inferiority,noway. churchs need to acknowledge the african cultures.........and soon .
