Reply #33: In 1960 I was "thrown" out of my church for wearing a JFK button and never went back. [View All]

[1776Forever]

I attended a Bible Church that had handed out hate message filled pamphlets, against Kennedy and the Catholic Church, to the members. I was a 15 year-old teen at that time and I just didn't understand why in Jesus Church they would do something like that! I decided to wear my Kennedy for President badge to church the next Sunday and the Sunday School Teacher went to my Mom and said "How could you let her do that?". My Mom replied she thought I was old enough to choose right or wrongly and then the Minister got into it and I said, "OK, I am out of here". I walked out and never went back to a church again. I am glad I did what I did and would have done it again!
