[Zionist Conspirator]

I suppose it makes sense that things got this way. The Puritans where all about reading and interpreting the Bible for yourself. The trouble with that, as Catholics (Roman and Anglo) often maintained is that without interpretation by properly trained, disciplined and accredited clergy, laymen will eventually twist and pervert the scripture to make it support anything they want it to based on whatever is fashionable at the time...

And yet the clergy of the ancient hierarchical churches are now far, far, FAR to the Left of Primitive Baptists.

I concede your point. Still a mystery how the dour Puritans became so Liberal but the primitive Baptists didn’t. The Puritans/Congregationalists where the moral foundation of America’s values at the time of the declaration of independence, and now their theological descendants somehow degenerated into moral relativistic liberal quasi Marxists.
