Little if any of it.
Kudos.... *not everybody is that open minded..... or grasps (or wants
to) the bigger picture.....
.... I think you need to have spent some time in the deep South to get
it....
I did, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee but I am not sure if that is
considered the Bible Belt. I ran into folks like that down there, but
not in fringe churches, but mostly KKK.
Actually a lot of northern states have higher numbers per capita of
KKK members than many southern states.
Could be, they are just more open about it down there. Asked a buddy of
mine in Ala where he would rather live, back in NJ, or in Ala, in
relation to prejudice. He said Alabama, "at least down here when a man
is a bigot, he will tell you when you walk in the door, so you don't
have to waste your time with him". "Up north, you don't know till it's
too late"...
