Ah yes, these hypocrites hate Whitey until it’s time for a decent neighborhood and school.

Then we’re not so bad after all.

I wonder if we would be as welcome with them. /s

Unapologetically Christian........still trying to figure out how he can view David/Jonathan as homosexuals, and think abortion is cool. Maybe it should be... Unable to explain why we we call ourselves Christian.

Housing costs in that neighborhood will decrease once the people know who lives there.

Absolutely obnoxious for a preacher to be accepting a $1,000,000 house from his flock.

A 10,000 sq ft house costs much more than $1 million to build.

Aside from that, how can a man of the cloth accept this gift when there are so many needy Blacks who could be helped with this money.

Mustn't take the vow of poverty in the Black Theological religious orders.

The ten million dollars was the line of credit that came along with the house. According to the loan docs, the line of credit is for “unspecified purposes”.

And from this link....

Honesty in the Public Arena

....As we reported, the reverend will soon move into a multimillion-dollar home. And now "The Factor" has learned he drives two Mercedes Benz automobiles worth about $142,000. In addition, Wright's church has access to an astounding $10 million line of credit.

Those parishoners need their heads examined.

...contributions from adherents such as the Obamas who gave the church $26,000, according to their 2007 tax returns.

Pretty serious dough for a message you disagree with.

I’d like to know where the money from that 10 million dollar line of credit has been going. Into Obama’s campaign coffers maybe? Or to Hamas...?

"I hate whitey...but they sure got some cushy, nice, safe 'burbs."

The hypocracy and opulence is astounding.

No way he wants to live amongst a bunch of angry Black people (i.e. his Parishioners).

Church pastors deserve a relaxed and prosperous retirement - even if the pastor is controversial. But this is obscene.
