Was Christianity weaponised during colonialism? Absolutely. Would never argue with that and it's definitely a topic that's brought me a lot of conflict.
Many aspects of my identity were brought about by colonialism. Some parts that I've chosen and some parts that I haven't.

Does choosing those parts mean that I am dumb/brainwashed? That is absolutely subjective

Choosing my faith is arguably the most conscious choice of colonial legacy that I have made. It isn't something I've done blindly, nor it it something void of scrutiny/pruning.

It's a large part of why I reject Catholicism and acknowledge religious practices that stem from cultural traditions as opposed to the foundations of Christianity.
My Christianity is definitely not a lazy/blind choice.

When you fashion your hair how you do, talk how you do, aspire to the life goals that you aspire to, do you question how brainwashed/intelligent that makes you? When you speak the languages you do and live where you do, does that make you less pro-black?
