political beliefs they were using christianity in their religious beliefs to justify this as a christian nation to make everybody bow down with their narrow interpretation of christianity king uses christian beliefs so everybody could participate regardless of religious orientation not because they were religious tickets like jesus in the disinherited he traveled across the country and set a big it is a person who doesn't honor his commitments so to worship at the altar of their own understanding king was trying to open up space so whosoever will regardless ofou your faith or religion or class and culture could niparticipate so now there is a lessening of that orientation that the language survived that ethical imperative survived by people do go to church still and then church comes to them. a secular priest guy has a church after her already. queen bee houston-based understanding the gospel the same way kendrick lamarr.

they were using christianity -- they were using their beliefs to justify this as a christian nation and to make everyone bow down at the altar of their narrow interpretation of christianity. king wanted everybody to participate regardless of their religious orientation. now we've got religious bigots, and howard thurman, the great teacher of martin luther king jr., and his book was in ing's briefcase as he traveled the country. so these religious bigots who worship at the altar of their own narrow understanding of the faith, fetishizing their own theology didn't understand what king was trying to do. whoever will regardless of your faith, your religion, your class and culture could participate. so now there is a lessening of that religiously intense orientation, but the language survives the moral orientation, the ethical imperatives survive. and more than most other people black folk do be going to church still, right? and even if they're going church, church kohls to them. i mean, beyonce is, what? is a secular priest. i mean, she's got a church after her already, right? i mean, queen
