What? 40 people left so they wouldn't have to vote on whether to allow interracial couples to participate in church worship? COWARDS. You're either bigots or you're tolerating bigotry. In the Bible I read, Jesus sat down with/hung out with the outcasts. He accepted the unacceptable. You cowards are just creating more outcasts.
I really thought the song I learned as a kid "and they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love, and they'll know we are Christians by our love" meant something. Turns out it means figuring out who's "out" (brown people who might have immigrated to this country, gays, and interracial couples) and who's in (lily white folks who hate others?) I believe in God, but I sure as heck don't believe in Christianity anymore.
And the exact SECOND that someone says "well, gosh, not all Christians are like that" they'd better be saying that very few Muslims are terrorists, because I've been hearing for YEARS that if Muslims don't stand up to the extremists than they're part of the problem.
WELL CHRISTIANS...WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO STAND UP TO THE HATE IN YOUR MIDST? WHEN?
