I'm still a SB member but out of the loop some. I started attending an Independent about 7 years ago. (Yes , I'm one of those dreaded Fundamentalists :'). The reason I asked the guys this questions was because I was supposed to attend a freep at Baylor a few years ago when Janet Reno invited to speak. It was cancelled though but not because of Baylor :'( I thought it really strange that she would have been courted though.

I'm a fundamentalist (small "f"), too, but my argument, I guess, is that the Fundamentalists weren't the kind of Christians that they claimed to be. Clinton, Kerry, and Gore often say the right things but we know that they're lying through their teeth because their actions contradict their words. Same with Pressler, Patterson, and the others who took over the Southern Baptists.

As far as having Janet Reno speak at Baylor, I don't see anything inherently wrong with that. I recall Baylor hosting guest speakers whose opinions I didn't agree with either and I thoroughly enjoyed the question-answer sessions afterwards. I don't see inviting Reno to speak as an endorsement of her politics and actions. I would like to see Reno speak myself -- and then have the opportunity to grill her with questions!
