Why do White Christians Vote Republican, and Black Christians Vote Democrat?

An overwhelming majority of WHITE Christians vote Republican. And an overwhelming majority of BLACK Christians vote Democrat. Why is that? Don't they read the same Bible and pray to the same God? Which group doesn't know they're voting for the wrong party?? Phil Vischer takes us on a fast-paced trip through history to figure out why different American Christians read the same Bible, pray to the same God, and vote very, very differently.

    @@Royalty_girlie What it means is that, while black Christians and white Christians might agree about certain issues like opposing abortion, same sex marriage, and supporting prayers in school, the white conservative Christians also envision a future where segregation and ‘separate but equal’ are the law of the land. In such a world, you might have prayer in school but find that, if you’re black, your child won’t be able to go to the public school of their choice because it’s racially segregated. Hence, “Having the right to hear a Christian prayer in your local public school doesn’t mean a lot if you’re not allowed to attend your local public school.” So even if conservative black Christians and conservative white Christians might agree on some issues, the world the conservative white Christians envisions is one where the black Christian would be a second-class citizen. Hence, conservative black Christians end up voting for democrats who might support things they oppose, like legalized abortion and same sex marriage, but at least democrats are interested in preserving the fundamental human rights of black conservative Christians.

    And true. Add to the fact that the governors in southern states closed all schools to prevent integregation which forced black students (like my 70-something parents & their friends) to migrate north to continue education AND created private schools, all to the testified detriment of white students who couldn't afford those schools' tuitions, and it is abundantly clear why Blacks vote Democrat and white Christianity is dying.

    1. House Representatives serve 2-year terms. 2. A single politician cannot even come close controlling the entire government, not even if they serve many terms. 3. They are elected by the citizens from their states. So if they please their voters, they get reelected. Even if every other state disagrees with why they are being voted for. Strom Thurmond being reelected over and over simply reflects a racist voter base coming from South Carolina. It's wrong, but it's what SC wanted. And he didn't control the government - all the racial equality measures were passed even with him voting against them.

I was VERY disappointed because this guy pretty well nailed it. I agree with the basic history he outlined and why things are the way they are today. I also believe he's right that we, as a country, should hold onto what is good while also working toward what is best. What so often frustrates me about Conservatives/Republicans is that they seem terrified to try to improve things in the USA and they always want to go back to this mythical time in the past when everything was better. They fail to recognize that in the past, things may have been better for people like them but it wasn't better for many of their fellow Americans. Kudos to the makers of this video. Very well done.

    Yes... except that the racists hide behind things like welfare and foodstamps and the "right" to murder as many of your own babies as you want to keep you down now instead of segregation laws. (Interesting side note: the democrats are still against school choice, like they always have been, so that hasn't changed as much as Phil Vischer may be inclined to think.) They want you to think they're trying to make you free while they're really trying to keep you enslaved. But thankfully folks like Candace Owens and Brandon Tatum are starting to express this problem more clearly.

And I'm well aware thag plenty of white women and plenty of latino women and plenty of other women have bought this lie too.

I remember when a lovely well dressed Black couple entered the First Baptist Church for the first time as guests (rather than as cooks or maids or babysitters). They were ushered to the balcony just as slaves were allowed to sit in the balconies of white churches during the antebellum times in the South. Sad but true.

It’s hard work, but a good Christian counselor can help you to let go and perhaps consider other perspectives along the way. 💗 Don’t project your feelings of bitterness onto others, though.

It’s a free market for all, they’re free to fight for black votes just as democrats are. Yet they never try, but they will complain till kingdom come about black people not voting for them. All they’d really have to do is acknowledge systemic racism and take steps to combat it. But we all know that doing so would mean that they’d instantaneously lose a sizeable percentage of their voters.

    They used some passages in the Bible to justify slavery and pretended a lot. They also passed laws that didn't charge killers of black slaves with murder if the slave died under the whip in a disciplinary action. Ming China was more progressive (killing a slave was murder). The South had no public education. Even in 1950s South Carolina until the Johnson era civil rights acts, women and blacks could not serve on juries.

    @Matt Vanderford I’m not saying individual sin isn’t biblical - it most definitely is. No question. I’m saying that the idea that it’s appropriate for a society to lament and repent together for the sinful things done within that cultural framework is also biblical - yet not emphasized within the White US American church. You hear a lot of, “Well my family and I never did that.” Maybe not, but if you call yourself an American then you have to accept the good and the bad. I take pride in the good that “we” have done as a nation. That’s part of what it means to have membership in a group. But group membership also means I am there for the ugly things, too. I accept that “we” have sinned, must lament the evil done, repent, and try to make it right. The systemic sins are glossed over in the White American church, and that is what’s culturally unique.

    @Matt Vanderford - Hm. Well I agree that revival and restitution for national wrongs should go hand-in-hand, but I’ve personally never been to a revival where we’ve call for a national effort to right the wrongs committed by our country. Personal sin requires a change of heart and the work of the Holy Spirit in an individual’s life. Holy people can still exist in sinful systems, though, and even benefit from them. Systemic problems call for policy changes, not just renewal of the heart. We live in a country that we govern - that’s a blessing and a huge responsibility. We are not just subject to the whims of a monarch. We can change laws and systems that are unjust or cause injustice. If we know the good we ought to do and don’t try to make it happen, that’s sin. Over the past six months, White congregations have been more vocal about social and racial injustice, but whether we will make a meaningful difference in our country in the name of Jesus on this front remains to be seen.

    I've always struggled with this. Since high school, I considered myself a conservative liberal. In my personal life, I carried myself in a manner similar to modern conservatives, especially with my religious beliefs. However, more often than not, liberal policies did more for my community than conservative policies, even though on a personal level I agreed with them. Understanding how the parties "flipped" over the years further cemented my confusion and frustration with both parties- I felt trapped somewhere in the middle. I believe in innovation. I am an educator and musician, yet due to a car accident, I am now disabled. These unique circumstances make it easier for me to separate church and state when I vote. However, I do not vote strictly democratic. I vote based on policies and weigh them in conjunction to the greater good. I'm tired, so I'll stop typing now, but I hope that whether we agree or disagree politically that we'll keep each other in prayer. America more than ever needs to stay safe and be steadfast. Have a nice day.

    @@rainbowllama5570 I just finished watching the video. Even with all that being said, the stereotype that "most Republicans are racist" is very incorrect. Racism being a societal norm hasn't been a problem ever since the 1960s. There's no Republican supporting the KKK in the year 2020 and if there are, they're a very very rare minority.

    Very well said and so true. Sadly, a lot of people profess Christianity who don't have a Christ-like life. Jesus knew the scribes and Pharisees did things for show and for power and greed. Jesus knows those that are his and while we might fool some, we will never fool Jesus.

    Man....you NAILED it! I'm a 50 yr old black guy that doesn't necessarily profess to be deeply religious nowadays but was raised Baptist in Mississippi. That said, the way you broke down history and conveyed the current perspective of black folk using past and recent history as the backdrop explains not only explains quite a bit about political differences between white and black religious groups, but basic differences between blacks and some (many?) whites about the country as a whole as it pertains to so-called patriotism. Until the country reconciles and seeks to repair past AND CURRENT attitudes about systemic racism and equality (economically and otherwise) we are doomed to repeat it over and over and get progressively worse uprisings each time. We will never go backwards. Things must and will change. Thank you for the history lesson.

    Why I picked you? I don't know. I was looking for some answers and comments on a video about what is eternal life. I am very upset and feeling confused and looking for some answers from the bible and especially from Christians. My cousin has excepted Christ into his life and so have I. I am a Democrat and he is a Republican. He has no empathy for black people as a whole growing up in Detroit. He has no problem with hating or should I say feeling repugnant of all Democrats also! We have both excepted Christ into our lives. Okay, now trying to understand the hate that so many republicans have for people from different parties because it stuns me. I pray for this world, my friends, family, this country, those that are suffering around the world, and I am at an impasse as he is not. Are Christians supposed to hate? If eternal life and Salvation are not the same things, could someone explain 1st John 3:15? 1st John 3:15 says if you hate you are a murderer and shall not have eternal life, so do you still have salvation? Didn't Christ want us to have a love for those who were suffering? What about injustice, poverty, the broken-hearted? Yes, everything is in God's hands and I should not be afraid or have fear in my heart for the Lord has his plan in the second coming and it may soon come and solve all this. (Nothing to concern yourself with). I do not believe the Lord wants me to sit back and not try to keep this Democracy intact. Is it only the rich Christians that have all this corruption in this leader that they feel is so strong about, are they right? Or is it really about money and power? Truth and hypocrisy in the same breath? What on earth is going on? I am looking for other views on this. We are at a very critical place and I worry for the souls of this planet and his frankly. Actually, I fear that the real truth not being understood by white Christians and that they have labeled things in their minds and so, therefore, have no need to evaluate it further.

    @@krissteele7960 It seems that you have been believing the lies of the leftist media. Most Republicans don't hate anyone, but welcome people to join them. I have found much more hatred toward people in the Democrat party if anyone has an opinion different than theirs. I have found Republicans to be much more accepting of people with differing views and perspectives. It is not "rich Christians" that are corrupt, but rather people who pretend to be Christian, but support policies and politicians who are corrupt and their actions negatively affect hard working Americans. When you consider who the CEO's of large corporations support, who big tech supports and who the Wall Street bankers support, it becomes obvious that the Democrat party is the party of the rich, the elitist and not the party of hard working Americans. In fact, biden chose prominent people from large corporations, big tech and Wall Street banks to be in key positions in his administrations. They most surely will not have the best interest of hard working Americans, including black Americans, in mind when they impose more restrictions on American society. The Democrat party is not a party that cares about Christian values or freedoms.

One is a religion based on the teachings of the New Testament. The other is the act of truly following the Jesus who is revealed in the New Testament. The first has always led to division and suspicion. The second leads to a life of humility, service, love, hope, and yes sometimes hardship. And it's easy to confuse the two.

    It's not really about black vs white. The real colors it is about is blue and red. Blue is for Democrats and Red is for Republicans. The blue democrats are always being prevented from helping people. There is a reason the parties chose these colors to represent them. Blue angels vs Red devils. During the civil war the Blue coats won. Through-out history and in all cultures blue is for God and the good, while the color red is used to represent the Devil and everything evil. Red is for hate and for war - Redrum is murder spelled backwards. Blue is for the truth, splendor and beauty. Blue States are better for communal life. Red States are hell holes of suppression and racism. Blue is for deeper thought and peace. Red is for rage and rebellion. the blue democrat party is "for" everything - and is positive - while the red republican party is only against everything - and is negative. The red party is full of hate and racism and lies. The true blue party is smeared by them as liars and satan whorshipers. But that's what their all about - they are a corrupt party. They lie when the speak. Obama was 99% correct when he said you could keep your doctor. But they say he was a liar because there was a 1% discrepancy. But when they are 1% correct about anything - they say they told the truth. In the Revolutionary war we wore Blue coats & we killed the Red coats. Jesus was a Democrat Rabbi and they wore blue. He was for the poor. The Romans wore red and built the colliseum from the spoils of their sacking the temple in Jeruslem. There - they expressed their hate for many years to come - killing the christians in their blood red games. Hobby Lobby are evil schills for the right winger's hate and lies. Blue is the color of God and his moral law Luke 9:35; Rom. 1:4.
