In the second era of the klan, religion had a major role. i did a couple temr papers on the history of the before i dropped out to have my son. One time, i ran across an old newspaper add containing the KKK "kreed". It was a simple document with like 19 points that the kkk held. Well, the first Point on there was something like "I believe in God and in the tenets of the Christian religion and that a Goddlesss nation can not long prosper". the klan and religion were very intertwined in those days. the "kreed" expressed the klan to have an interest in God first and country second. they were a very religious group. The Klan felt "..protestant virtues marking fitness for citizenship that the Klan...as essential for white racial identity". They equated different religions with different races. if you were jewish, it was almost as if you were black in their eyes. it isn't hard to imagine a preacher preaching a white To tell you just how intertwined the second resurgence of the klan and religion was, consider two things. In 1915, the the traditonal klan symbol was initated on top of a mountain in georgia. and what was that symbol? a burning cross. also, do you wanna know who they hired to sell klan membership in 1920's. Protestant pastors. Pretty crazy!
