You haven't read much religious literature. What you say here is just false. 

I don't suppose you're interested in looking into what religious people have actually said, but if you were to read things by, for example, Eriugena, Jacob Boehme, William Blake, Simone Weil, or hundreds of other religious people who want more than to control your thinking, you would change your mind.

You will reject this, of course, because you have already decided that what he said must be wrong. But lots of black people continue to find his work liberating.
