At one point in history, the church was powerful, as the Christians would suffer for what they believe in. The church wasn't just to support popular ideas, but changed them. When the Christians went to a new place, they were called the things MLK Jr. was called, but by trying hard enough, they stopped getting discriminated against and integrated with the people.]]> 2020-04-28 18:40:11 UTC https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/537284230 https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/537284380 In MLK's disappointment of the lack of care from the church.

Instead he talks about how he was met with hate and disgust by some of the church leaders. He talks about how clergymen were very against what he was doing. What probably makes this worse is that clergymen are people with a lot of political and social power and if they influence people to stand against king then they will, also I would think for a clergymen it would hard to be down south and be in support of social change because a lot of people go to church and if your town says, we are against King and what he is doing and then a big church says no we agree with King, things could get dangerous when these 2 different ideas clash and the clergymen could lose their job or be physically hurt]]> 2020-04-28 18:41:54 UTC https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/537288278 https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/537288876 These paragraph is about what the church need to do and what he has to do to help if they don't help and fix this, and what they put people through.]]> 2020-04-28 18:42:11 UTC https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/537288876 https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/537288936 This paragraph is about how the church was very powerful and had a big impact on everyone around the community.

Yet the white ministers either watched silently from the side, or came to a conclusion that it wasn't part of their concern at all.]]> 2020-04-29 19:42:51 UTC https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/540214790 https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/540223381 King goes into detail about how he's seen multiple churches, beautiful through many seasons. Yet all these questions kept popping up in his head; where have they been during hardships for the negros, where was their voice and support. Leaving King with more disappointment in the churches of the south.]]> 2020-04-29 19:47:03 UTC https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/540223381 https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/540242805 Although King feels disappointed in the churches, he says that his tears, were tears of love, as he asks himself whether he'd loved the church. As King sees churches as bodies of Christ, most likely being sarcastic about his "tears of love", mostly mocking the churches for their neglect which scarred the body of Christ.]]> 2020-04-29 19:55:51 UTC https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/540242805 https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/540251818 King begins to talk about how the Churches themselves used to be powerful during times of early Christianity. As those Christians would be seen as disturbing peace, although they kept their commitment in being a colony of heaven, even during times of conviction they'd attempt to end ancient evil, or rather injustice.]]> 2020-04-29 20:00:24 UTC https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/540251818 https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/540262462 King then says that times have changed and that the current churches are weak and are nowhere like how they used to be, making christianity seem as a joke. The power structure and community don't even sense the presence of the church, as it's more silent than vocal now, making them seem irrelevant within the community with how weak the churches are.]]> 2020-04-29 20:05:40 UTC https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/540262462 https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/540277038 King describes the way these churches place "judgement from god" as if they were considered jokes, as these churches in the south have lost their authentic feel from the way the old christianity worked, consuming disappointment and disgust from others rather than praise. Although King acknowledges the churches all recognizing what is morally just, as nothing more than a dream, he doesn't fail to notice those from the churches whom still helped during times of struggle, being able to relate with the negro community. As even when they lost these whites lost support from churches they were in, they had still acted following the mindset of how faith is better than "evil", making these people one of those whom carved deep tunnels through of disappointment, pathing a tunnel of hope.]]> 2020-04-29 20:12:28 UTC https://padlet.com/lfranty/obr7h29ss0uv50fm/wish/540277038
