Who gives a sh*t? Anybody can call themselves a Christian and not be one. Just like any other hypocrites of any damn religion. Get over it. You act like Atheist are for peace and serenity. Psshht. Just look at atheist North Korea and China.

I doubt it.

It may be worth finding out if the church has performed an occasional wedding in recent years that debunks the idea being promoted by this black couple. If it hasn't, predominantly white only means that the church has visitors that are non-white.

It's not Christian to be a racist. I always found racist churches and racist churchgoers to be a thing that is kinda comical because of its obvious hypocrisy. It's also kinda sad. As long as the isolated racist churches are without introduction or presence of another race, they are OK and relish in thinking that they are living a Christian life, but once they are confronted with something out of their norm, they show their true hateful colors.

Um, it's actually very common to "JOIN" a church. You do this by either getting baptized or it is just an unwritten thing that happens when you regularly attend or get involved in a service of the church such as being an usher, on the treasury or something like that.

Authoritarians that have used communism for power do not like organized religions because they promote group think and political influence. This is exact opposite of approach taken by authoritarians who have, and will, use a majority religion for gaining and keeping power. It has nothing to do with atheism being their choice over religion, it is just that atheists on their own are generally independent minded compared to religious folks who are generally collectivists.

If that were the question, what would be your answer? And along the lines and position of Jesse Jackson, for example, and just as you came up with a name, who would you say is a Christian?

The God of Israel is a racist.

Most "Christians" today are PC baalists. They have rejected the God of Israel and no longer worship Him.

Israel was a tribe, so an "ethnicity" rather than a race.
