11. LOL--I'm a Southern Baptist and you wouldn't . . . okay. . so you would
believe the number of Baptists who believe this particular piece of crap--that Catholics aren't Christians! It's revolting to me to believe that one religion's members are better Christians than another.

I've sought out progressive SB Churches over the years to attend and want to say that there are definitely churches out there that don't pay the national Southern Baptist convention much attention at all. But sadly, they state and national conventions do get a piece of our revenue and use it to conduct campaigns such as these which spread hate and venom and misinformation and do it in the name of God. Again, I wonder, do these people actually read their Bibles or are they so busy thumping the rest of us over the heads with it that they just never get around to reading it???

There's are reasons why I don't go to church as much as I probably should, and this would be one of them. The other is that I was actually told by one fellow member that it was impossible to be a Christian and vote for John Kerry (or any Democrat). This is the mindset we're up against and it terrifies me to think what the future holds for our party if we can't expose these charlatans for what they really are.
