...either the 6th or 7th since the shooting in Charleston. So let's see...6 or 7 Black churches have burned in the past 2 weeks in the South and 0 White churches have burned in the South. Nope, no racism down South at all.

This is a terrorist act, and not yet have they found or discovered the Arsonist. I also hope that it is not the inner working of someone at the church (CONSPIRACY Theory). Sorry, I have to keep this in mind knowing that many pastors are greedy for money. Now, this recent one in South Carolina is very creepy because it has been destroyed before, and had to be rebuilt. They are also checking to see if it was related to the storms that may have set off an electrical fire. I am praying and hoping that none of these buildings will be burned when the church (the people) are in attendance.

Do we know this for a fact or is it just that white church fires are not newsworthy (i.e. racially inflammatory)?

This whole things has been a political train wreck and everyone has forgotten lone man did this and he is in Jail now and will be punished to the fullest extend of the law.

It could have been caused by lightening in the area:

He also said the fire could have been caused by lightning from a storm that had just passed through the county, but an investigation into the incident would not be able to commence until after the flames had been doused.

Looks like they reverted back to the 1800's all over again, evidently Roof was not an anomaly he has plenty of company.

Just reported it was NOT arson. Didn't hear what the cause of the fire was.
