I seem to be spending more and more time lately explaining to myself and preparing to explain to others that "NO, my church is NOT THAT KIND OF BAPTIST" when prominent pastors mainly in the south and mainly of the "angry white man" persuasion continue to support a candidate who just makes me more disgusted every time he opens his mouth. Is it fear of the fact that as the census bureau predicts, in another 25 to 50 years people of color are predicted to be in the majority in this country? Is that so frightening? I would much prefer to have a taco truck on every corner than a gas station. And why in the world has a journalist who was just trying to document the water protectors in Dakota arrested? What ever happened to freedom of the press?
As the lady on Saturday Night Live used to say : "Discuss amongst yourselves."
An angry white woman who feels more comfortable in a mainly minority church of the American Baptist flavor.
