Imagine the shrieks of indignation and cries of "bigotry" here, if Baptists were to crow about their conversion rate of Hispanics to their church and their church alone. But, they don't crow. Neither do other denominations. Baptists seek to bring souls to Christ. That can mean any number of churches with the Gospel as foundational truth, not just their own.

“But, they don’t crow. Neither do other denominations.”

Maybe they do, maybe they don’t. This article is from a secular newspaper is it not? So who exactly is crowing?

A while ago one you separated brethren made a similar comment along the same lines. I suggested to them exactly what I am going to suggest to you: Go ahead post that type of thread and see how many comments you get and how many "shrieks of indignation and cries of "bigotry"" you actually get. I am guessing it will be darn few.

But go ahead and prove me wrong.

Please do post some, I love stories about people coming to Christ.

After I became Catholic I ran into a group of older women who had known me growing up in the Methodist Church. It was a fundraising dinner and I was waiting on them. They asked if I had become Catholic and I said I had and waited for the lecture I thought I was going to get. One woman graciously said, “I am so glad that you have found your faith home.”

Well, when you believe your own propaganda, what do you expect?

Amen.
