=== Religion ===
According to Dylan Novak, a Protestant preacher known by the online alias ''Celebrity Preacher'', he had a interaction with Rock where he learned that Rock's faith "did not stick with him as he grew up." In a 1989 stand-up routine, Rock remarked, "When you’re black there’s like no religion to turn to... It’s like, Christianity? I don’t think so. White people justified slavery and segregation through Christianity so a black Christian is like a black person with no… memory."<ref name=":0" />

According to [[Vibe (magazine)|''Vibe'']], in 2017, Rock stated during his Total Blackout Tour that he was "trying to get a little bit of religion… Not a lot," and that he wanted to "find God before God finds me." He also said that he believed in God a little bit but that he practices the religion of comedy.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Augustin |first=Camille |date=February 15, 2017 |title=While On Tour, Chris Rock Aims To Strengthen His Faith 'Before God Finds Me' |url=https://www.vibe.com/news/entertainment/chris-rock-the-blackout-tour-spirituality-488439/ |access-date=January 26, 2025 |website=VIBE.com |language=en-US}}</ref>
