How about this gem?

From the article: “The convention does not announce in advance what resolutions it will consider at its annual meeting, but recent controversies include the admission of a Muslim student to a Southern Baptist seminary and the decision of one Southern Baptist church to stop preaching that homosexuality is immoral.”

All it takes is one bad seed to ruin a crop. Get my drift?

“Get my drift?”

Nope. A congregation can only be removed from the SBC at the Convention, which takes place once each year. The church that now accepts homosexuality has only done so recently, and thus was not subject to removal at the 2013 Convention. If the Convention takes no action, which is highly unlikely, THEN complain.

“the admission of a Muslim student to a Southern Baptist seminary”

This came to light last month. It is likely to be addressed at the Convention. There won’t be many folks supporting using Cooperative Program funds to support non-Christians in a SBC seminary.

Claiming “Southern Baptists are becoming more PC....why don’t they just elect Gene Robinson and be done with it already?” is pretty ridiculous.
