I guess anybody can come along and call themselves a "Baptist" church. I wonder what kind of a "Baptist" this turkey is.

Perhaps a "Zen Baptist." I've heard that label quite a bit lately, as though there's really no conflict between the fundamental philosophical presuppositions of traditional Anabaptists and/or English Baptists and Zen Buddhism.

Maybe a "Roe Baptist." It's a tough hoe to Roe, but I'm sure some Marxist vector might popularize the term some time in the near future. Have you ever heard the phrase "gay Baptist preacher?" Wait a few years.

Nope, haven’t heard that one yet. As a Baptist, I hope I never do but I certainly will not be surprised when I do.
