Nah, i'm just saying it takes away from the piece. I read it and although I sure as fuck do not agree that MLK was our savior and lord, I do agree with everything else he says. I need to print this out so I remember it, rather than forgetting it by the time I wake up tomorrow.

I believe that MLK shit. Lord simply means having power over. And savior is anyone who rescues or saves. MLK DID save us. So he can be considered a savior. Someone who's strength can inspire you. We need to quit fuckin waiting for jesus to come back and just let him be reborn in us. But nah thats crazytalk

To us, it makes sense, but to someone hearing us call him lord and savior without a long explanation and a few definitions, it seems radical as fuck and will cause people not to give a fuck what you say. If you're going to try and preach, people need to listen first.

everyone needs a lord of some form, most peoples lord is within them self, but a higher form is good. MLK was respected in america and some what world wide, so would you rather he be lord rather than a maybe mythilogical jesus?

Jesus isn't mythological merely because he was far before our time. I don't think we need to adopt a new symbol if one seems too far away, it seems purely hypocritical of religion and true belief. Jesus is my lord and savior, MLK was a highly intelligent man with good beliefs and the drive to reach his goals, but as far as i'm concerned, saving my soul from myself > convincing white people to like me more than usual.

yeh i respect that bro, but is he absoluty relevant to now? We hear of alot of people saying "jesus shall return to save us" when shouldnt a lord give you strength,passion,hope adn guidance to save yourself.

Im not disrespecting jesus, but his life isnt exactly the most truth full facts layed out in front of us sorta shit. Were as someone more recent and more "present time related" there is no hiding scriptures,there is no lost record of anything, theres is no contridiction.

I just feel jesus has been a last glimer of hope for the past 50-100 years, it may be time to try a diffrent approach?

He doesn't need to be absolutely relevant to now yo. The doctrines he taught and morals he preached still survive through to this very day. Yet you want to sit here and act like you know everything there is to know about MLK. You don't know what he did behind closed doors, you think you do because you know some of it. Plus, faith and beliefs aren't a fuckin pair of shoes you rock until they get old and you see some new shoes that's all the rage. No, I don't think it's bad to believe in what MLK says and thinks and strives for, I think it's bad for you to even put him on the pedestal of someone who means more to your life than almost YOU do to yourself.

I forgot something I was gunna say though so have fun with what I did.
