Seriously. This has been a long-running discussion among various people and various bloggers about where we are as a denomination with our behavior. Most of us don't think about it on a regular basis on Sunday mornings, but we are still in that place where 11 AM Sunday morning remains one of the most segregated places in America.

This ought not be. If we're going to survive as Christians and accomplish the purposes that God has for us, we cannot afford to indulge ourselves in petty divisions over non-Biblical issues.

So, again, I encourage you to click through and read. And if you disagree, say so. Point out counter-examples. Help be part of the discussion that leads to a solution.
