Burt, et al,
The United Church of Christ doesn’t appreciate these sorts of smears coming from conservative quarters and has responded thusly to the malarkey coming from you and other conservatives.
What? It’s ok for Irish Catholics, Swedish Lutherans and German Congregationalists to celebrate their heritages with various events but it’s not ok for a historically black congregation to want to help folks in the black community?
Seems like quite the double-standard, and much too close to the “race-baiting” you appear to decry. (Then again, the “race-baiting” you rant about doesn’t actually exist at Trinity United Church of Christ, whose members include not just black people, but also white folks and Christians of other races as well.)
You can discuss Sen. Obama’s faith all you want — just be honest about it instead of sounding like a dimwitted crybaby who has been obviously misinformed.
