He was hired by some white guys as a front man because he was black. They wanted to organize black churches. He was "assigned" 20 churches to "organize." He wasn't getting anywhere with those churches. The "white guys" told him that folks in the church preferred someone who was a church member. He went scouting thorugh the 20 churches and came up with Wright. Liked Wright, joined his church and found out the "white guys" were correct in that after he had a church to belong to the other churches welcomed him as "one of us" and were willing to work with him.

He also stated in an the faith debate that "religion is a tool." That is a direct quote.

I hadn't heard that he went through THAT many churches. Where did you
get that? You are correct, though. That makes it even worse. He
deliberately chose what he listened to.
