A black couple in Crystal Springs, Mississippi says that a predominantly white Baptist church refused to let them get married because of their race.
Charles and Te’Andrea Wilson told WLBT that the day before they were to be married, the pastor of First Baptist Church of Crystal Springs informed them the ceremony would have to be moved due to the reaction of some white church members – even though the couple had attended the church regularly.
“The church congregation had decided no blacks could be married at that church, and that if [the pastor] went on to marry her, then they would vote him out [of] the church,” Charles Wilson explained.
“He had people in the sanctuary that were pitching a fit about us being a black couple,” Te’Andrea Wilson added. “I didn’t like it at all, because I wasn’t brought up to be racist. I was brought up to love and care for everybody…”
Dr. Stan Weatherford, the church’s pastor, was forced to perform the marriage at another church after he was taken by surprise by his congregation’s outrage…
Church officials said they would hold meetings to decide what to do if another non-white couple wanted to use their facility in the future. They insisted that all races were welcome at the church.
These folks in the First Baptist Church of Crystal Springs, Mississippi will be the first to tell you they aren’t racist. They will bore you to tears with chapter and verse of their misbegotten religion, corrupt versions of history and every other rationale invented to stand in the way of the civil rights promised to every American by our Constitution.
They’re still devout racists.
P.S. You shall not carve idols for yourselves in the shape of anything in the sky above or on the earth below or in the waters beneath the earth; you shall not bow down before them or worship them. For I, the Lord, your God, am a jealous God, inflicting punishment for their father’s wickedness on the children of those who hate me, down to the third and fourth generation.
Exodus 20:4-5
Likewise, you wives should be subordinate to your husbands so that, even if some disobey the word, they may be won over without a word by their wives’ conduct when they observe your reverent and chaste behavior.
1 Peter 3:1-2
I hereby declare Communism to the the standard of conduct:
The community of believers was of one heart and mind, and no one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they had everything in common. With great power the apostles bore witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great favor was accorded them all. There was no needy person among them, for those who owned property or houses would sell them, bring the proceeds of the sale, and put them at the feet of the apostles, and they were distributed to each according to need.
Acts 4:32-35
Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand persons were added that day. They devoted themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to the communal life, to the breaking of the bread and to the prayers. Awe came upon everyone, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles. All who believed were together and had all things in common; they would sell their property and possessions and divide them among all according to each one’s need.
Acts 2:41-45

Absolutely typical of Mississippi, been there and seen it first hand.
Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;
Romans 1:3
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
Matthew 1:18
Mississippi is a state of contradictions, and it is spelled funny.
Listen not to the false prophet, as the 4×4 and Urban Sprawl and the supremacy of the American People are the purpose of the Universe I have created. To put relevance to anything else is to lose the path to salvation.
Smegma 74:843

Next time with real Christians.
There is nothing like some good ol’ fashioned southern racism. Mississippi and Alabama are last in almost every single statistic from education to basic infrastructure. Fortunately for them they are at the top in racism and intolerance. Way to go!
