What a goofball this guy is.

These inerrancy types love to throw around the terms liberal and conservative. But they consider you a “liberal” if you don’t believe their centralized authority (in direct opposition to baptist tradition) and a 4000 year old earth,,,you are a “liberal”.

People would be surprised at some of the old school Texas baptists that woke up to find they were actually liberals. SB Seminary used to be respected.

I'm one of those "old school Texas [B]aptists" -- and we agree. These "inerrancy types" love to castigate as "liberal" those who do not agree with the "inerrancy" of their particular (mis) interpretation (in particular, of Genesis).

As one who is comfortable with (and thrilled by) both the Genesis account and with ever-improving cosmological and genetic understanding. I guess my self-label would be, "Liberated". :-)

It's amazng how truly liberating it is to escape from having to "prove" that you have the "only" answer to things like Creation!!!

Man (particularly Mohler) is not the measure of God!
