In Post #30, GB58 stated: "Point out all the racist politicians you want, it doesn't change the fact that it is not doctrine of any main line Catholic or Protestant church. The only church that had it as official doctrine was the one being discussed in this article."

I see nothing so far that establishes that racism was a "doctrine" of any mainline Protestant denomination, or of the Catholic church during the Southern segregation period. Were any individuals in these churches racist? Yes, probably many. But that is not the same as having it as part of official doctrine.
