"Veazey, a pastor of a Baptist church..."

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.

I think he is American Baptist - they are very liberal, and very much in the liberal wing of the Church. This certainly would be consistent with policies of the National leadership...although not necessarily of the local churches.

Sorry - just found out he is National Baptist Convention USA
