How racist is New Bremen Ohio

[Rodney Luther King]

Why are there so few blacks & hyspanics in New Bremen Ohio. Just how many are employed at Crown Industries? I bet it's less than .5% And I don't think its due to being such a farm community, that is just some peoples excuse for the reality of prejudice Maybe it is due to the less than welcoming climate created by locals & the community at large. Looks to me that New Bremen works very hard to nurture a white bread neighborhood.
Last Sunday Afternoon the Pastor of "FAITH ALLIANCE CHURCH" preached a sermon targeting, "FEAR,BLACKS, DEMOCRATES & OUR PRESIDENT". The Faith Alliance Church Pastor said, "Don't become enambered with OPRA TYPE PEOPLE". He has commented on the fact that he does not care if people consider him a BIGGOT! Wow!!!!!! No Blacks or Hyspanics present in this church congregation.

Rodney - were you in the same service as I was? That was not the title of the sermon, so don't put it in quotes like it was. At no time during the sermon did I hear the pastor proclaim to be a biggot! I think you fell asleep during most of it. He did say we should not become enamored by Oprah type people. He used her as an example because she is one of the most watched people on TV not because she is black. I myself watch her and enjoy her shows. What you should have gotten out of it that sermon is that there is only "1" that should lead us in our daily lives and that is Christ Jesus. Look to the Word for guidance not to those on tv, radio, or other media. Why don't you come back again and try to stay awake next time. I'm assuming you are black, otherwise why would you post this, I will keep my eye out for you on Sunday. I would like to welcome you the next time you are there.

I heard mention during a sermon maybe 6 weeks ago the word Biggot from the pastor. It was in reference to his view point against homosexuality.

I think he forgot to speak enough about ways of helping others through their struggles with sexuality. Maybe it was to harsh and sounded biggot like.

I see many references to sermons that seem to have been taken completely out of context. All of the sermons at FA are posted on their website. Anyone can listen and hear what is actually said...www.faith-alliance.org. I encourage each of you to do so.

I used to fellowship with The Way International and lived in New Knoxville for 5 years while I was on staff for them. This crap sounds like something they'd teach especially when the crazy Craig Martindale was the Man of God (I'm saying this sarcastically).

Beware of the evil democrats, homos, liberals, and especially OPRAH! Even the Good Lord knows Oprah does many good things for people. She gives a lot, and we could all learn from her.
