Meanwhile, LGBT Community Cheers Pope's 'God Made You Like This' Remark, thus requiring another "clarification" and interpretation of the chief interpreter.

And your focus is on a president of a Texas seminary who upheld martial vows and faith (though at least intervention is called for in such a case).

Why are you deviating? This is an article by a respected Southern Baptist preacher. Address the article.

For your benefit, I'll just repeat the points raised by Mr. Mohler -- Albert Mohler is the president of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. This post originally appeared on his blog and has been republished with his permission.

..We thought this was a Roman Catholic problem.

...When people said that evangelicals had a similar crisis coming, it didn’t seem plausible—even to me. I have been president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary for 25 years. I did not see this coming.

I was wrong. The judgment of God has come.

We cannot blame a requirement of priestly celibacy. We cannot even point to an organized conspiracy of silence within the denominational hierarchy. No, our humiliation comes as a result of an unorganized conspiracy of silence. Sadly, the unorganized nature of our problem may make recovery and correction even more difficult and the silence even more dangerous.

As I recently said with lament to a longtime leader among the more liberal faction that left the SBC, each side has become the fulfillment of what the other side warned. The liberals who left have kept marching to the Left, in theology and moral teaching. The SBC, solidly conservative theologically, has been revealed to be morally compromised.
I would suggest you read this. There are lots of other posts on other topics.

Or not, which is why he found himself in this mess.
