So first, the article is about churches generally, not just the worst people you know. Lots of old Presbyterians and AME folks at the anti-Trump rallies.

Second, idk, let go of the hate. I get it, I really do, I spout off myself a lot, but it's poison. See how it warps and twists others, but don't think it does any less to you because yours is righteous.

There was a recent story, about a white woman with a baby asking for food. She said she asked 7 churches, 6 white churches said no, an immigrant church offered her food, a mosque offered her food, and a temple offered her food.

White Christianity in America is a cancer, even the white liberal ones.
