    Burning crosses is getting really old. Besides it defiles the Christian faith, in which they worships the cross as a sacred symbol of Christ. You can say that the KKK is blasphemous in ways that it does not respect the Christian faith. They’re hypocritical at best.

    Everyone in America uses Christianity as a confidence scheme. It’s sort of an unearned badge of honor that anyone can steal and brag about.

    Don’t fall for it. You can be an atheist and still be a kinder and more moral person than many people who claim to be Christian.

    Actually, you can still be a good Christian and hold moral and traditional family values. What folks should not fall for are quasi-sub groups whose leaders are almost always referred to as the “Messiah”, “god” or they claim to be the gateway to the heavens etc. You can always spot a cult group, whose followers are obvious zombies without a brain of their own. With many of them being white in white urban and rural communities.
