WARNING:Just to make this clear so I don't start getting bashed as usual, I have addressed this thread as such because I was asked in the thread what I believed about this topic so I am responding with complete honesty. I AM NOT preaching or in any trying to teach the gospel and the christian way I am just defending what I believe in. .........OK
Now if you are gonna bring up the the words "belief" and " minorities" we shall ponder on the correlation of the 2 thoughout history. I will ask you something. Where did the existance of Gospel Music come from? Yes you are right!!!! Black folk in the cotton fields, singing thier pains to the GOD that THEY BELIEVED in. They did all they could do to ease thier pain they BELIEVED in something greater than this shit hole of a place. I am astounded and admirous of the black baptist churches down here. It is a fucking beautifuil thing!!! They have so much love and so much belief. They project it in thier sermons more than any other organized group that I have experienced.
Anothor "minority" group that comes to mind are the latino or hispanic groups. There is a big difference between your run of the mill american catholic and a catholic of these cultures. They are much more devout, they are more willing to believe. Many of thier roots have been grown in sorrow. If you never see immense sorrow in your life you will never be able to view their side of the coin.
And we come to the unrecognized "minorites" the poor dipsite your color and whether or not ppl even recognize this as a "minority". In fact lets just use the term "ppl that always get shit on" instead from here on out. They cling to god more so than one who is rich. They have nothing in this life. Life is pretty fuckin hard to you when you are poor. Sometimes all you have left to believe in is god. Again if you have not lived Poverty you cannot know and understand that type of faith and for you to say that they are "dangerous" because they have a little bit of hope in thier lives you are just plain out oblivious and stuck forever in your little rat cage you have built around yourself.
