In reply to the discussion: The most frightening sentence this side of a Stephen King novel [View all]Your statement is true about The SBC I made the mistake of taking my children to Baptist church when they were little thinking that it would be good for them. They had a nice children's program. They started to preach politics. We were poor I was trying to go to college and my husband worked for the railroad but would be laid off during the winter. The preacher called me in to talk to me. He wanted to know if we were drunks, drug users or gamblers since that is the only way that we could be poor. I told him no to all those and he was lost. By the way none of my children will step into a church.
When I was younger I came across an official in the GOP in my state. He told me that all jobs and openings in colleges were for their children and relatives and I had no right to be pursuing a degree. All good jobs are for them and everyone else was to serve them.
