Must be an Alabama thing (full disclosure: I live here).
In 1921, a Methodist Episcopal Minister (and Klan member), E.R. Stephenson, had an adult daughter that converted to Catholicism and married a Puerto Rican.
Rev. Stephenson celebrated his daughter's wedding by going to the Catholic church a few hours later and killing the priest that performed the ceremony.
Sheesh.....SMH
Now Methodist-Episcopals have tranny ministers, promote and celebrate gay marriage and gay adoption, and have turned churches into pagan galleries. How times change!
Bit of an over reaction there!
But you’re not from there
I had many a prayer to St. Jude said for me at school......
I remember those days here in Maryland. In the early 60s our Methodist pastor had a daughter who married a Catholic. We were treated to regular anti-Catholic digs from time to time after that, which bored our family to death since half our in-laws were Catholic and we didn't want to hear that.
It being the Baby Boom and with many churches expanding, our congregation decided to build a larger sanctuary. Heavy machinery came to excavate the foundation, and a big pile of dirt soon rose up. Turns out, the Catholic Church right next door had also been having a building project. They actually needed some fill dirt; so the contractors worked it out between themselves to move the unwanted excavation material right across the street to the Catholic lot.
From then on, our pastor's triumphalist anti-Catholic rants began thusly: "Hah! That Catholic church next door is built on a good Methodist foundation!"
