I am a Southern Baptist.  Most people think that means a baptist in the south, but that's not exactly what it means.  Do you know anything about the Southern Baptist denomination/?
I know they have conventions in New Orleans .. :)

Since the 1940s, the Southern Baptist Convention has shifted from some of its regional and historical identification. Especially since the late 20th century,
I'm thinking from the scuttlebutt I'm hearing that's it, but I don't know anything for sure other than they do have a script they love, they're still tweaking." The film may also take place more in the real world than in the past according to the recent interview: "That's what I'm told, but you didn't hear me say that," Boxleitner joked.
