Beyonce’s Parents Turning Away From Christian Beliefs?

Beyonce’s parents Mathew and Tina Knowles seem to be drifting farther away from their Christian beliefs and it’s reportedly causing quite a rift in the family.

Beyonce has always been open about her religious beliefs and that she is a dedicated Christian. While her parents have the same religious background, it appears all that is starting to change as Tina Knowles is drifting into the world of Scientology and Mathew Knowles is being accused of being a lying crook.

“Thou Shalt Not Steal” is the most well-known of the Ten Commandments that are key to the Christian religion, but rumors are swirling that stealing is all Mathew Knowles does.

Gospel singer Le’Andria Johnson let it all out on Twitter yesterday as she blasted Beyonce’s dad for being anything but a Christian man.

“I have not said nothing for 2yrs now!!!” she tweeted. “Matthew Knowels is a crook!!!! And I want out!!!! Im tired of being bullied !!!!”

Johnson never went into detail about why she was so furious with Beyonce’s father, but since even Beyonce fired him as her manager many people are wondering what’s really going on behind the scenes in Mathew’s company, Music World Entertainment.

Johnson wasn’t the only person on Twitter to let Mathew have it either.

Beyonce arguing with mom of scientology Her manager, Robert Hatcher, also revealed that he’s had many issues with Mr. Knowles in the past.

“Dear Mathew Knowles: You’re crazy!!!  You cussed me out, called the police on me while I was in your office, if I didn’t love Beyonce I would have destroyed that office, but my love for her kept those picks on the wall!!! You’re crazy as hell!!! Coocoo for coocoa puffs!!!!”

Shortly after addressing Mathew, Hatcher continued his Twitter rant about how the industry “is full of liars liars liars!!!”

“Wheww dont get me started,” he finally tweeted as he appeared step away from Twitter for a while to cool down.

According to the industry vet, he has been having problems with Mathew for more than two years and he’s finally had enough.

Meanwhile, Tina Knowles is considering abandoning Christianity all together.

Beyonce's mother getting into scientology After Beyonce’s mother began dating Richard Lawson, he has been convincing her to give Scientology a chance and Beyonce is far from happy about it.

According to TheFIX, “Beyonce is dead set against the religion and is worried her mom is getting sucked in.”

Tina has already attended several Scientology events with the actor and it has reportedly caused several arguments between the mother-daughter duo.

“Beyonce and husband Jay Z are wary of the religion and are trying to get Tina to be a bit more cautious,” one source said. “The relationship is causing big problems between daughter and mother.”

Despite all those far-fetched “Illuminati” rumors, Beyonce and Jay Z are both devoted Christians and Beyonce’s childhood was centered around the church.

It’s easy to see how her mother engaging in a religion that doesn’t even believe in God could cause a bit of friction between the family.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
