the catholic church on my campus prays for refugees every mass š
At Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Saint Louis, parishioners sort themselves into different services by race and language. As Mexican-born Angelica Garcia explained, āWhen I come to Mass at noon, the Anglos leave, and [Latinos] go in and we donāt even say āhiā to each other.ā150 Many Christians simply accept separation. In Beaumont, Texas, two United Methodist congregationsāone white, one blackāmerged because both had declining memberships. Most of the members stayed despite the merger because the newly-united church held separate services, one for whites and one for
blacks.151 Anyone who ran a business or school this way would face a federal lawsuit.
I can look it up if you guys really need me to
I need it, bro
This is the source Wikipedia cites
i used to go to a southern baptist church in KY and it was white as the driven snow
I've thought of switching over to baptism.
It's not loading for some reason
Baptism has hardline "you cannot do x or you will go to hell" going for it
Hit me with the Wikipedia article
@Daniel Turch To your point on Catholicism
"As Aquinas recognized inĀ De Regno, āIntercourse with foreigners, according to AristotleāsĀ Politics, is particularly harmful to civic custom. For it is inevitable that strangers, brought up under other laws and customs, will in many cases act as the citizens are not wont to act and thus, since the citizens are drawn by their example to act likewise, their own civic life is upset.ā For Aquinas, it is political habits that matter, not merely approval of abstract principles. Unbridled immigration threatens the continuity of political habits that is essential to the survival of a nation."

At NewSong Community Church in Irvine, California, half-Korean Senior
Pastor David Gibbons also worked very hard to integrate his congregation. He
preached what he called a ātheology of discomfort,ā meaning that people should
mix with people unlike themselves. He hired black and Hispanic assistants but
his 1,500-member congregation remained 80 percent Asian.
Stacy Heisey-Terrell, a white woman, says racial reconciliation is a big part of
her Christianity. She and her mixed-race husband drove half an hour every
Sunday to attend Evergreen Baptist Church in Rosemead, California, another
Korean congregation that was trying hard to integrate. It didnāt work. āI canāt
take this anymore,ā she said, of being the only white woman. āThereās no one
like me.ā She was mortified when she organized a church picnic, and the
Koreans would not touch her bean salad.
Victory World Church in Norcross, Georgia, is one of the three to five percent
of churches that are integrated. In 2004, its congregation of 4,500 was 60 percent
black, 30 percent white and 10 percent Hispanic and Asianābut that was a
difficult achievement. āTo get to those 4,500, we have gone through thousands
and thousands of people over the last 141ā2 years,ā said co-pastor Dennis Rouse.
He said that many whites donāt like a black majority, and many blacks āprefer to
be over there with āthe brothersā in an all-black church.ā
