Hi!  I really enjoy singing in the choir for the Southern Baptist Convention.
I have heard of it. It's a Christian based church in the south . Is it Georgia?
Yes it is!  I am not sure how long it had been around though.
it's been around a long time , since before the Civil War when southern Baptists split with northern baptists over slavery I bleieve
Wow, that sounds like it was a long time ago.  I wonder who founded it.
Since the 40's the convention has shifted some from its regional and historical identification.
How many members do you think it has?
A lot. Worldwide over 15 millionmembers. Its the largest Protestant church in the US
What would you say are the basic beliefs of their religion?
They emphasize the preisthood , faith mostly and the Bible s authority
