Why are Christian churches so segregated?

[AutistSupremacist]

I'm sure a good chunk of you who grew up religious Christians (mainly Protestant) know what I'm talking about. My congregation was entirely black and I knew whites who went to churches who had entirely white congregations and so on. I never read or heard about any mosques that were entirely arab. They were usually multiracial.

I believe it has to do with certain neighborhoods. Low income neighborhoods and rich neighborhoods. I feel like if blacks were to come to white churches it'd be even more degenerate.
Churches should be segregated imo.

I myself was never raised in Church and I became a Christian later in life.
My best response :
1. Not always true churches can be quite diverse but yes true as a greater rule!
2. Naturally people desire a church that understands them and their experiences
3. A lot of people are converts and they go to the church of the person who converted them and people are more likely to be converted by those close to them.Who would likely be like them

there are only turkish, arab or other cultural mosques. What are you talking about?

basically although racial segregation ended blacks and whites still preferred to stick to their own mostly due to shared culture and socioeconomic status. it's not a church phenomenon it's an entire US phenomenon

There are some historically black churches which many black people still feel attached to. They've pretty much become their own denominations nowadays like the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church. There are also African immigrant churches, like the one I went to as a kid, but the reason for that is more obvious. I rarely see whites congregating in white-only churches, at least here in the northeast, but you see many black only ones. Nowadays, I go to a mostly white church (maybe 70% white) despite being black, as I live in a mostly white area.
