Pastor Nullifies Church Ban on Interracial Couples in Kentucky - ABC News
Seriously?
I must admit that I was rather floored by this news. A couple banned from church because they are an interracial couple? Parents of the daughter told that he (daughter's fiance) should go back to where he came from? Kicked out of church after playing the piano and singing for the congregation? That is not very Christian-like behavior.
As for me,
I will date whomever I please, regardless of racial and cultural differences. I guess if people cannot accept that, then they cannot accept me. I cannot say I would allow it to impact my life much.
Do not live inside a box; explore the world freely.
