A handful of people from the Jewish and Christian faith joined the protestors. Similar guides have been published in the past asking Baptists to pray for the conversion of Jews and Muslims. A booklet focusing on Buddhists is upcoming, according to the Associated Press. Many of the protestors at last week's rally were students and young professionals.
Ignorance brings prejudice.
Speaking to a Houston Chronicle reporter after the protest, Gary Moore, a spokesman for the Houston church said he had not seen the booklet, but was aware of it. Besides, the Southern Baptists have so far not agreed to pull the guidebook from circulation, as Hindus had demanded, he said.
