The Episcopal Campus Ministry at the University of South Carolina was so opposed to integration that they closed their student organization sold their property on Pickens Street to avoid integration.
Choirboy. If you check your history you'll find that the majority of ALL churches in ALL protestant denominations were against integration of churches in South Carolina. It was, however, the Episcopal Church in our state that led the way for integration.
However, equating racism with the issue you are stuck on is an "apples and oranges" arguement.
It is possible to genuinely love and nurture someone without saying that anything he or she says or does goes. You can genuinely love someone who is addicted to drugs or alcohol without approving of his addiction; and in fact, that love compels you to try to make him turn away from those deviations and destructive behavior. I'm sure you disagree with that part of my analogy, but such "bigotry" is out not of hate, but out of a love that compels what is considered remedial action.

We should petition Bishop Lawrence to grow some hardcore chops like Bishop Salmon had--those things were AWESOME!
