I know I'll get flamed for this, but I have to add this:

Up here where I live, the members of these small Baptist churches believe it is okay to rape your daughters, granddaughters, steal from other church members in a business deal, eat like a pig till you become one, have an affair with the choir director, etc.

But DON'T drink alcohol, you'll go to Hell for that.

I'm serious.

Many years ago I was involved with a family that had this philospophy, as did all the ones in their church. The father was a deacon and pillar of the community, he was in church every time the doors opened.

He also was the most evil person I ever encountered in my life. A lot of his family members are now having serious problems because of his evil. All of his grandkids are drug addicts, etc.

I would never be caught in one of those kinds of churches again. And that evil man did more to turn me away from organized religion than anything.

I never met a drunk as evil as that self righteous man was. And, I've said this before, and I'll say it again: The ones who insist on pushing their views and morality on you are usually the ones with the guiltiest conscience about something.
