For years Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship did "exchanges" with lilly white Northwest Bible Church where the pastors and choir would minister to their sister congregations.

The Dallas Morning News is deliberately trying to make a racial issue out of this. The Church does not believe in race (we all come from Adam & Eve and have a common ancestor in Noah), it is the world imposing their atheistic Darwinism views on everything. These pagans have no clue, and should not be listened to when they opine on things they have absolutely no understanding of - anything that deals with faith and God.

As a transplanted Okie, I often have fun with some of the "enlightened" Los Angeles
sophisticates I meet.
If race issues come up, I tell them that "in Oklahoma, we were multi-cultural and diverse
before y'all even thought up the word".
And that I attended school with minorities (Hispanics, Native Americans) before the
schools were integrated.

Sometimes, these educated jack-@$$e$ as much as call me a liar on these points.

Nonsense. The Southern Baptist Convention came into existence because of a schism that developed among Baptists over the question of slavery-the Southern Baptists supported it.

Ever heard of the "Curse of Ham" which was the 19th century theological justification for slavery and segregation?

The Bible has been frequently used to justify slavery and racism, because in fact, it does contain numerous passages that can easily interpreted to condone slavery and racism. To blame atheism for racism and say that mainstream Christianity has always been against racism is the worst sort of self-serving revisionist history.
