how about putting the ABA statement of faith in there? I don't think it is the same as the American Baptist one.. since it is neither calvinist nor armenian

I know that I had asked about Westboro Baptists before, but it wasn't explained in a way that I can understand.

Ok, this isn't a discussion thread but since you asked, just because a Baptist church carries the title "Baptist" it does not make them a separate entity. For your information, Westboro is typically associated with the SBC.

And you will not see a listed "Statement or Confession of Faith" from them.

Nuff said...

God Bless

Till all are one.

Here is the ABA website:
