IFBx treatment almost too hard to believe.

The heavy-handed abuse of people under the guise of being spiritual is what I.just.don't.get.

I couldn't agree more.

It could be that there are a bunch of them folk merely masquerading as Christians and church members, doing the devil's work.  Matt 7:21-23



:D ;)

"masquerading" ... would that be the same thing as FRAUD?

Yes it would and I would not want to be them when they answer for their actions.

When I was a teenager, I was saved and started attending a church pastored by a BJU grad.  One Sunday night, he preached on Ham of the old testament something about the curse of Ham.  He tied it to the blacks and slavery.  I just never bought into it.

Even if that WERE true, it is NOT a justification for keeping blacks as slaves or treating them as  sub-human.

Part of my viewpoint could be that my father taught in public school over 20 years.  Before and after he taught, he drove a small nursery school bus that took kids from the projects to and from their nursery school.  He had a black woman as a boss.  My exposure to blacks was very limited, but I can honestly say I never heard my father use the "n" word, nor did I hear any other relative make any racist comments.  I guess I was lucky that way.  I think my aunts, uncles, etc. were of the mindset that you judged a man by his actions, not the color of his skin.

I had a similar upbringing where race was just not an issue -- a man's actions were how he was judged.
