It's a funny situation in the SBC - most of the "leaders" don't want to acknowledge the problem because of the financial implications. The laymen, however, are forcing it on them. Al Mohler, Paige Patterson, Paul Pressler, and Rick Scarborough are some of the exceptions. I also know that many of the leaders know about the problem and will commment in private, but are staying in the closet. Any guesses concerning what percentage of the leaders or members of the seminary faculties have their children in government schools? I think that if someone checked you find it is quite high compared to Southern Baptists in general. Sorta looks like they know the Titanic is going down, they've gotten their children into the lifeboats, but don't want to share the information with the rest of the passengers.
As I recall the fellows doing the most hollering on this aren't laymen. And personally I've found their remarks and assumptions rather insulting.

I went to High School with Paige Patterson. He's a good guy.
