Please don't paint all Baptists with that brush.

"In contrast to most of the Southern Baptist Convention and much of the wider Baptist movement, the Alliance has emphasized women's ministry, encouraging women to seek ordination and senior pastorates, as well as acceptance of homosexuality as a legitimate way of life."

I realize that they are a renegade group which has very little to do with the traditional Baptist denomination.

I emphasized this in the article:

"The Alliance of Baptists is one of a number of semi-denominations formed about 15 years ago after liberal and moderate Baptists left the Southern Baptist Convention."

The real point is that Cindy and CodePink have (with the help of this group of "Baptist") tried to circumvent the law.

But since it is clear that their trip is not a religious program, they should be arrested upon their return to the US.
