Reminds me of my neighborhood. We have a few professional/classy black families and they are great. I am almost certain they feel the same way about their neighbors.
I once knew a black guy who owned a deli-diner where I ate lunch sometimes. I remember him saying he was thinking of opening another place, but the possible location would bring in "the wrong kind of crowd".

I knew what he meant, and he knew I knew what he meant, but he couldn't come out and say it.

I think Fr Josh Johnson is at Christ the King. If you’ve never heard him, he’s really entertaining and engaging. He’s the only black catholic priest that I know of and he’s really popular. He might bring in some ladies you’d like


+1 for Father Josh. He's an AWESOME priest.

He wants to make babies with a god fearing white woman. That’s a legit reason.

Sounds like Catholicism to me.

Who's the pastor at Christ the King these days? Campus parish would be more diverse than a neighborhood parish.

Eta: Looks like Father Josh. Should have read the whole way through.

You’d be better off finding a Mexican in Nancy Pelosi’s house who doesn’t work there.

Try the Chapel baw. It's a relatively diverse congregation last time I've been but certainly more of a traditional church.

It’s not a bad strategy. I used to have girl friends of mine who lived in cities outside the South who would complain that no men in their late 20s - early 30s where they lived would consider settling down. My best advice was to go find a church boy. I don’t think Southern guys are as bad about that Peter Pan syndrome, but women definitely go to church looking.

I'm a single black man who is looking for a wife. I prefer black women. Hence the diverse congregation. I'd prefer a majority white congregation with some blacks.


You’re getting grief for this statement but I actually 100% get it.

Our church is fairly diverse for being in a white majority town. We definitely have a strong contingent of Hispanic, Asian, and Black congregants.

Most of the black people I know are there because they felt that their previous churches were being too political and varying from scriptures. We’re a biblically conservative church and I’d wager 90% of our congregation (of any race) are politically conservative but it doesn’t come out from preaching.

I’m in Texas so I’m worthless to your needs but you’re getting dumped on unfairly.

We're on the same frequency. Please tell me the name of your church and the city. I'm often in Texas and I'd be glad to visit.

It's the OT and so of course people will mess with Shaft. But he's welcome at any church I'm aware of or have named and wouldn't feel out of place in any of them either.

You never watched Coming to America? Where did Prince Akeem find his woman? At a church event.

You find a better wife at church than a bar.
