Aside from the fact that they're Protestant.

I like that they're outspokenly anti-ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖ and anti-Jєωιѕн. I saw a couple BBC docuмentaries hosted by the crypto-Jew Louis Theroux that made for some very interesting viewing. You can find them on YouTube. The only point in the two videos when Theroux loses his cool is when they go to picket a ѕуηαgσgυє and he pleads to one of the members that "the Romans killed Jesus, not the Jews!"

I remember one of the regulars on Fisheaters referring to them as cowards. A totally perverse accusation. Like the tactic of saying the complete opposite of the truth or accusing an innocent of one's own sins.

I have no plans on converting to their Church, of course, but I do find them fascinating and wondering what the people here have to say.

Here's the videos:

(Louis Theroux, the Most Hated Family In America)

Then he visits them 4 years later after some members have left:

Some things good, esp they are not worshippers of the military/USA state as most baptists around me are........that said

Very Anti-Catholic
Protesting at funerals is dis-respectful, no matter who died. Very class-less.....

They are unseemly attention-seekers.

While one can look at their antics and the reactions they cause with a kind of black humor, unfortunately they scandalize by their cultivation of absurdity that becomes sometimes overtly blasphemous.

"God hates the World" - just one example.

I'm just providing the link to show the sort of language they literally use:

That's not to say they're all necessarily malicious and bad-willed people, but they are highly perverse. And they are heretics.

they take a unabashed Calvinist take of the world-ie, world is evil, work of :devil2: and man is completely worthless........surprised more of them do not end up wigging out and committing hare-kere.......ie, ѕυιcιdє......

IMO, Baptists are perhaps the worst denomination. As Belloc said, they're very anti-Catholic. They're heretics like all the other Prots out there.
