Outing campaign roils D.C. black Baptist church

One of Washington’s largest black Baptist churches was rocked by a female member of its choir who sent separate e-mail messages to the pastor in December and January outing more than 100 church members as gay, mostly male choir members.

The outings added to the inner turmoil experienced by a large number of gays who attend services at the 7,000-member Greater Mount Calvary Holy Church, located on Rhode Island Ave., N.E., according to a gay former member who provided copies of the e-mails to the Blade.

“I will be leaving the choir at the top of the year because 80 percent of the tenors are homosexuals and act more like a female in choir rehearsal than I do,” the church choir member said in one of her e-mails to Bishop Alfred Owens Jr., the church pastor.

The e-mail, sent in December, identifies about 45 fellow church members as gay. She sent a second e-mail to Owens on Jan. 2 identifying another 62 church members as gay.

2. What self-respecting gay man or woman would want to be affiliated with that church in the first place? It runs one of those depraved "Ex-Gay" psycho-spiritual terrorist "ministries". :puke:

If it's an ex-gay affiliated church... of course there are going to be gay people attending!

Part of me thinks its nothing more outrageous than sour apples on this lady's part.
