[{"role": "system", "content": "The Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) is a Christian denomination based in the United States. With more than 15 million members , it is the world's largest Baptist denomination, the largest Protestant denomination in the United States, and the second-largest Christian denomination in the United States after the Catholic Church. The word \"Southern\" in Southern Baptist Convention stems from it having been organized in 1845 at Augusta, Georgia, by Baptists in the Southern United States who split with northern Baptists over the issue of slavery, specifically whether Southern slave owners could serve as missionaries. After the American Civil War, another split occurred when most freedmen set up independent black congregations, regional associations, and state and national conventions, such as the National Baptist Convention, which became the second-largest Baptist convention by the end of the 19th century. Others joined new African-American denominations, chiefly the African Methodist Episcopal Church, which was established in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in the early 19th century, as the first independent black denomination in the United States. Since the 1940s, the Southern Baptist Convention has shifted from some of its regional and historical identification.\n"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Are you a member of the Southern Baptist Convention?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Nah, I've heard of the Southern Baptist Convention but I'm not very religious."}, {"role": "user", "content": "Ok"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "It's pretty interesting though, since it has over 15 million members."}, {"role": "user", "content": "It is a church?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "It is more of a Baptist denomination, so yes it is a church for the most part."}, {"role": "user", "content": "Ok.
