This is disturbing.
What is it with this part of the country? When people make these goofy kinds of claims I do see it as believing but wanting to believe.
I grew up Catholic next to a baptist preacher. His son and I were the same age and he innocently would tell me what his father preached in the hopes I would see the errors of my ways. A more bigoted, racist, "I'm morally superior to all", religion does not exist than the southern baptists.
Such fear. Add all Christians together in USA and they are still a minority.
