"I sure hope and pray it isn't Islam doing this."
I doubt a muslim perp doing this would distinguish between brands of christianity, particularly with so many to choose from - this more likely is someone with a personal fixation regarding the baptist church for who knows what reason.
Exactly. All the signs point to this being someone or some group local to the area. What amazes me is that 10 churches could burn without anyone seeing and reporting anything that leads to the arsonist.
The media says it's not racial. Because both black and white churches have burnt down. I'm like you: it's probably some brain dead atheist just getting his kicks. I pray they find him/them real soon. Lots of nuts running around today.
Has to be an animus against Baptists--while there are a heap of rural Baptist churches in rural Alabama, there's also a number of others--a firebug likes a church to burn, but a particular denomination?
