"I'm not, never was, never will be. I belong to the religion of the Church of Chaka Khan, and I practice it every day. I live my religion, I consider it a personal thing. But I've taken some courses in Scientology, and they've been very, very helpful through life's ups and downs."
-- Eight time Grammy Award winner and new Broadway star Chaka Khan on Scientology. (The New York Times)

Just something to think about! If there is a heaven and hell, how do you know you are not already living in hell waiting to perish forever.

Hello Chaka.. You go girl, If God needs to get your attention he will have no problem getting it, God is not about religeon, matter of fact religeon is a sin, it is about faith and relationship with him, its not about church (4-walls)... its about your personal relationship with God on an individual level which is absolutely nobodys business at all. To the viewer, Chaka said something about science, but she didn,t give you a personal breakdown of her business so why do you do the one thing God speaks against..? JUDGE NOT or Ye Shall be judged with the same measure hummm. God loves everybody, even the unbeliever, the homosexual, the homeless, the murder, etc etc etc, but we so-called people of God won,t even do whats required, and that is to love unconditionally without judgements of our fellow man and have faith in the God that you speak so highly of can change the hearts of his people. The word of God says in the book of Matthews The down trodden will be first and the 4-wallers will be last because he continues to knock at your doors and yall won,t even answer.....

Why is it that a person has to be a member of a religous organization in order to embrass themselves and how they choose to live? Most of the people who are members of those organzations are ignorant about their religion and to research it's history anyway. So if Chaka wants to believe in herself as I do more power to her (FREE THINKER).

The church was established by God, not by man! So, there can be no church of Chaka Khan. It exist only in her own mind. In the Bible in Hebrews it clearly states that we are to not forsake the assembly. Also it encourages us to accept Christ as our savior, if we want to miss hell and fine our final resting place in heaven. Perhaps Chaka Khan should read Romans 10:9 just one of the many scripture of instruction for believers. Obviously she is not a believer. How sad!!!

That is what's WRONG with you organized religious Christains...I was raised Baptist, but I am a Christian, until I REALIZED! That there are way too many denominations for us to call each other Christians...God is not a God of confusion! Denomination is not something that gets you to heaven or hell..Chaka is none denomination, that's what she means by, "The Church of Chaka Khan" You damn denominators get so caught up of what "Type" of Christain, instead of the trying to live for the REAL reason, UGH!!!

church of chaka- thank you whoever said it will land her in hell, because last i checked Jesus was the only way. i saw her on tv last night talking crazy, about god this and god that, but she is fooling people because she kept sliding the universe in there, and making it obvious she wasnt talking about the God of the bible. so im glad somebody on here has some discernment

Religion is based on zero logic, only fairy tales.

Chaka Is Wonderful! I Hope That The Church Of Chaka Khan Is Based In The Belief Of Jesus Christ, Our Lord And Saviour.
