Are there any other Baptists around this place? I'm a Missionary Baptist myself.

I'm baptized a Baptist, but I'm not a very good one.
I drink (and refuse to condemn those who do), don't care about banning gay marriage, and prefer to get my life in order before telling others what to think/do.

Ok... so that's the stereotypical view of Baptists (and what made me leave the church I was baptized into).

Truth be told, I am really liking my dad's church. The sign says that they are a "Southern Baptist Church", but the preaching says differently. Dad's pastor is really big on things like "get your life in order before you go around telling others how they should live" and "don't tell people how to live, show them."

They still condemn alcohol (which I don't get, Jesus drank wine.. WINE, NOT GRAPE JUICE!! THE BIBLE SAYS WINE!!*), but that's about my only real disagreement with them.

*Dids, you're not a Baptist, but back me up on this one.

Okay, I know we already have the Mormon thread going, but before this turns into a board where there's an individual thread for shout-outs from every single denomination and religion, I think it might be proper to note that we already have two threads with similar purposes:

What Do I Believe In?

What Christian Denomination Are You? (Poll)

EDIT: Please don't think I'm doing this as an attack on this particular denomination, its followers, or the thread starter--I have no qualms there. It's merely a progression I want to try to avoid here, which I think falls in line with forum rules.

That's a pretty good idea, George.
Thanks for the help.

I really hope your name is George... For some reason, I think it is..
