Bob Crantz plagiarized a hatemonger's sermon:
...
The Bible teaches us that the descendents of Ham (Negroes)
were born to serve,


This particular bit of nonsense always fascinated me because it is not
in the Bible. Although used for 1500 years as justification for the
slavery of Blacks, it was not "the descendants of Ham" that were
cursed in Genesis 10, the end of the Noah story. The first three sons
of Ham are clearly identified as African nations, but it was
specifically the descendants of Ham's forth son, Canaan, that were
cursed to be slaves. And who were they? They were the Canaanites,
who co-existed with with the Hebrews, and for the entire First Temple
period (when Genesis was written) competed for the spiritual attention
of the people.

Indeed, when the prophets say "King So-and-so did what was evil in the
eyes of God" they often meant that the King had endorsed some aspect
of the Canaanite religion. Many of the early stories in the Bible are
veiled references to much later issues - for example, the Golden Calf
incident in Exodus is a reference to the golden calves in a temple in
northern Israel 500 years later.

And yes, I know that the Landover Baptist site is a parody.
Unfortunately, far too many people believe it.
