And they consider themselves CHRISTIANS.

Black couple's wedding banned by white Mississippi Baptist church
A black couple in Mississippi planning to get married in the predominantly white church they often attend was barred from having their wedding there due to objections from members of the congregation.

Charles and Te'Andrea Wilson were looking forward to exchanging their vows in the First Baptist Church of Crystal Springs in Crystal Springs, Mississippi. The couple had planned everything; the date was set, the invitations were printed and mailed out, pastor Stan Weatherford was ready-- then they received horrible news.

"The church congregation had decided no black could be married at that church," Charles told WLBT. He says that congregants threatened to expel Weatherford from the church if he performed the ceremony.

"He had people... that were pitching a fit about us being a black couple," Te'Andrea added. "I didn't like it at all, because I wasn't brought up to be racist. I was brought up to love and care for everybody." Dr. Weatherford told WLBT that he was surprised by his congregation's opposition to the wedding.

"This had never been done before here," he said of marrying a black couple, "so it was setting a new precedent, and there are those who reacted to that because of that."

Isn't Christianity based on 'god's chosen people"? They are just keeping in line with that thinking.

To quote my Facebook posting on this "All I can say is Boo fucking Hoo. They could had went 15 minutes north and got hitched in Terry, Ms - which is extra Black! The could had went 15 more minutes north and got married in Jackson, Ms. For them who may not have read the story, they couple were married by the same pastor of the church that denied them...oh yea, they was extra pissed off huh? All on CNN and shit - like they were gonna get a march for them...uhh - not in this day and age. This look like somebody trying to get some press to pitch another bullshit-ass reality show. GTFOH!!!"

"Not only is the husband old enough to be her dad but...he look old enough to be her Grandfather - WTF? Remember the White guy that was 51 and married the 16 year old? Well, atleast he didn't look like her grand daddy. Look at the pic of this loving couple."

I don't know if they got the memo but...they are not gonna get a march or rally for this incident.

Dusty old - grey haired (as of the hair he still has) ass negro marry young Black girl to do what? SMFH!!!

When my son return from Korea, we can sit down and have a drink at the bar. YES - he can have a legal drink with his dad. WTF I look like introducing him to a woman I married that is in his age peer group?
