The SBC is now far too “woke” to be interested in someone like McFarland.

If memory serves me correctly, Alex McFarland is an old-earth creationist. I'm not fussing at him about it. I too believe in an old-earth creation under God's divine hand (not "theistic evolution" where God supposedly set up natural selection billions of years ago and sat back and has been just watching us slowly evolve with little to no interaction, not even breathing the breath of life into Adam).

The problem is not many Southern Baptists believe that. Many believe in a young earth, especially the older ones who still wield much influence. IMHO that would be the most pressing issue keeping McFarland from leading the SBC.
