There are tons of redneck churches out here.

You can tell them because their sanctuary is a trailer house with an addition. No joke.

I consider "redneck" a highly offensive term and the equivalent of the "n" word which nobody in the world is allowed to say.

Redneck is a term used by the northeast liberal media against poor southerners and middle america.

I think that's a bit of a generalisation there. Sure some people use the term derogatively but in most cases it's just used in a jokey sense like here.
