10 things Katt Williams said about God, Satan in interview Page 7

6. He has a broad appreciation for religions

Williams told Sharpe that after he left his childhood home at 13, he explored different expressions of Christianity and other religions, including Islam. He revealed that he spent time experiencing the Nation of Islam whose controversial leader, Louis Farrakhan, refers to him as a “one of his sons.”

“Because my particular background was already religious and super strict, I didn’t find out about other religions by reading about them — I went to the religion,” Williams explained. “I don’t want to learn from Jewish people from outside. I want to be in a synagogue. I don’t want to learn from Muslim people, I want to go to a mosque. I don’t want to hear about the Baptists or the Pentecostals. I want to go to their church and see. So that was the religious discovery I went through in that period.”
