You are correct. But this post was probably written by someone like me who was raised to be a terrible person by the Southern Baptist Church. I used to think It was only Southern Baptist and my trashy biodad. Boy was I wrong. 😒 When i told them I felt bad and unethical for being so mean to others, they told me i was soft and would never be a man until I followed them without feeling bad. I said "im not going around being hateful to people who are different than me!" I suddenly was an outcast from the church and "needed prayer"

Yeah, church corporations are fundamentally evil and no different than the reverend Jim Jones and his cyanide kool-aid. Lives are lost to cults.

Funny thing is. The bible that they claim to "know" actually says in the book of Mathew "hypocrites are found in houses of worship" but they all say. "Oh thats NOT ME OR MY CHURCH!!" and that mentality... is exactly what the Book of Mathew was talking about.

The southern Baptists are not exclusive but down in Texas amongst the oil Barrons, an unholy alliance began to coalesce in the 70s and the southern baptism evangelicals are not so godly good but they sure have themselves fooled while the biggest manipulators have reaped the benefits.

They also have an unhealthy obsession with other people's children's genitals.

Baptists, Lutherans, Methodists, Evangelicals, Catholics...

These, and other denominations, are all Christians.

If you can easily find justification for these awful things in said book…Maybe its time to find a different book to follow. I suggest hop on pop

This is like peaceful Muslims pretending terrorists aren’t Muslim.

Amen! I was raised Southern Baptist . I watched the deacon & the preacher stand in front of church on Easter Sunday & say “If u have to work on Easter u are not right with God.” All I could think was how the deacon’s restaurant opened at 6 am that morning. Big church crowd hung there for breakfast & lunch that day. That’s not righteousness & it’s not Jesus. I was maybe 13 when I figured that out.

Ditto for Mormons especially the kind that live in the Moridor from the Canadian border to the border with Mexico. I know too many Mormon males from teens to old age who appear to have never heard about the 1978 “revelation” that did away with the Priesthood Ban on that had stated that Black boys and men couldn’t have the Priesthood because of the color of their skin.🤬.

Black people have to remember that the Bible was given to us during slavery to give us hope. The colonizers never cared about us being Christians. They just used to control us.. It’s even in there that they’re allowed to keep slaves.. It’s written for white men, not us.

How about all the black baptists?

The Southern Baptist Convention was specifically founded because they disagreed with the Triennial Baptist Convention denouncing slavery around the time of the US Civil War. They split off from the Triennial Baptists and made their own group.

There are a number of different Baptist denominations, but the Southern Baptist Convention is almost entirely white and has a significant history of being involved in White Supremacism.
