I agree. You can't judge the whole on a handful, but since just a handful can make a lot of noise, it'll sound like the whole is behind it all.
I grew up in Baptist school and they were definitely kinda crazy. "If you drink alcohol, you're going to hell, if you associate with gay people, you're going to hell, if you're different from us we'll ostracize you until you join the fold." Those people were all really nice, but really nuts. They were so scared of EVERYTHING, you couldn't experiment with anything without "playing with the devil." It was an excellent school, but I had to leave. Now, after that I had a sore view of Baptists, but I learned that the entire Baptist population isn't like that. BIG RELIEF
