I especially like this quote.
Fred Luter wrote: But you cannot deny the fact that there will be some, and there are some, who still have a problem with the skin. And I told folks yesterday that I was talking to, we don't have a skin problem in America. We have a sin problem. And until we deal with our sin problem, we will always have a skin problem.
Few truer words were ever spoken.

I wonder what the heads of the Southern Churches who splinted off from the Northern ones over slavery a century and a half ago would say if they saw this. not that it would be anything worth hearing. I'd just like to see the look on their faces while they were saying it.

Mankind inherently sins because mankind is inherently imperfect, according to Baptists I know, so basically he said 'We'll deal with our racism never.'

How many blacks are in SBC, like the new Presidents? Because most of them, I thought, were in the black denominations like the National Baptist Convention.
El Moose Monstero: That would be the winning song at Eurovision. I still say the Moldovans were more fun. And that one about the Apricot Tree.
That said...it is growing on me.
Thanas: It is one of those songs that kinda get stuck in your head so if you hear it several times, you actually grow to like it.
General Zod: It's the musical version of Stockholm syndrome.

Nitram, it's more "we will never be finished fighting racism," which is probably a true statement.
