If you live in the American South they’re impossible to avoid. They’re everywhere.
It’s not just Baptists, Evangelicalism is a vague coalition across sects, but Baptists tend to be some of the worst. Especially Southern Baptists, the church that exists because the Baptist Church went “You know I think slavery is bad” and they wanted to keep owning people.
Backing this up because people don't realize:
It's very, very, very bad
Genuinely if I had my way people associated with the Southern Baptist church would be so oppressed that I should have difficulty running for public office just because my grandma was one and she took me to church as a kid.
Anyone with strong ties to that church needs re-education and lifelong monitoring. Most of the leaders, including nearly every pastor, should be given the fucking wall.
:FAI:
It's actually worse, if memory serves. The Baptists didn't decide slavery was bad for everyone they simply decided that the preachers shouldn't own slaves, what with the whole "envoys of christ" angle they play from the pulpit. That was a bridge too far and thus the Southern Baptists were created.
for the SBC.
I do believe you’re right. Evil organization.
