Allows openly gheys, drunkards, crooks, and other sinners to attend church on Sunday morning, but can't join the church unless they repent and believe.
As they should. Salvation is for sinners, the church has a responsibility to help shepherd them away from sin and into God’s will. There are many people that are legitimately blind to their sins.

Do Protestants in the Deep South really believe this, though? I think most of their churches are actually Calvinist, meaning that the "saved" are actually predetermined by God. They further believe that you can spot the "saved" by observing their lives. They are the successful, right-acting people.
Once I realized these facts, small rural Protestant churches made more sense to me. They basically think they're God's nobility, and the rest of us are heathens who deserve our lot in life merely because of who we were born as.
