Alabama Pastor Holds White's Only Conference

(The Lookout)-A controversial pastor's conference welcoming only "white Christians" is underway in Lamar County, Ala., upsetting residents of the nearby town of Winfield in the western part of the state.

Christian Identity Ministries is holding a three-day conference for so-called "white Christians" who contend they have been treated unfairly, the Rev. Mel Lewis told local TV station WSFA. Lewis, the organizer and keynote speaker, says they have the right, like any other Americans, to worship how they wish.

Ku Klux Klan flags and white supremacy slogans surround the conference, which will conclude with a cross being set on fire Friday night. Organizers say it's not a cross-burning, but rather sacred Christian cross lighting.

"We are not breaking any laws. We're not violating any ordinances. We're bringing the Word of God to people who want it, obviously, or they wouldn't be here," Lewis told the TV station.

Lewis said of the conference-goers: "They are part of the chosen race."

The mayor of nearby Winfield said residents are upset, and the event does not represent their town in any way.

"Business people are upset. The city is upset. The city of Winfield does not condone this," Winfield Mayor Wayne Silas told another local TV station, WECT.

"It's surprising to see something like that in our town," said Tyler Cantrell. "I know it's been here in the past."

Organizers say their ministry is not a hate group and that although there is a strong KKK presence, the Klan did not sponsor the event.




*Treated unfairly my ass!

Truly this idiot is trying to prove a point with this all white christian conference.  He's not fooling anyone these days, especially with the likes of the KKK showing up and burning crosses and what not.

This mess doesn't surprise me, because only in America do we have things like this that seem to make national headlines.  This type of gathering is nothing more than a KKK white supremacist meeting for people who don't like the society we live in these days. 

Think about it. 

We have a black President who runs America.  We also have same-sex couples who is getting married and flaunting it in everyone's faces.  Then we have a ravished economy with the loss of jobs, as well as the loss of the so-called American dream.  Then our education system is crap.  So honestly it's not a shock people are rallying and trying to call attention their so-called pain and suffering.

Hell; I'm sure we all suffer but to hold a conference with the KKK in place and then set fire to a cross is definitely taking it way to far.  These people need to find something better to do with their time and get over it. 

"I'm bored with this...yawn."
