Southern Baptists Call to Overturn Supreme Court Ruling on Same-Sex Marriage
#SouthernBaptistConvention #SBC
From AP.com: Southern Baptists target porn, sports betting, same-sex marriage and 'willful childlessness'
"Lyell was labeled a temptress and adulteress who led a Christian leader astray. She was showered with hate, with pastors and churches calling for her to be fired. A prominent activist journalist published an account alleging that Lyell had been less than truthful and arguing that Sills had been denied a chance to return to ministry."
~ Bob Smietana

But three years ago, Lyell told Du Mez that she didn't think she could live much longer with the torment the institution was visiting on her with a vicious smear campaign — that her body was giving out.
And she has now died of massive strokes, aged 47.
"Jennifer did what she did for love. She did it to protect other women. She also did it to protect the church that she loved.
That love placed her in directly in the line of fire."
Longtime Southern Baptist leader Paul Pressler, who was accused of sexual abuse, dies at 94

Can someone please explain to me why anyone would want to be part of a religion that forbids you from any type of senior leadership role on account of your not having the right genitals?

#RomanCatholics too. 🤦🏼

A fair question.
Even according to their own nutterdom, aborted zygotes get a one-way ticket to Heaven. I guess they'd rather these precious little souls have a really good shot at Hell.
Morons. All of them. #SBC

#Abortion isn't murder, not even according to the Bible. #Fail
That's right, genetic miscoding can cause an abortion. No problem. The womb can malfunction in some way. No problem. An accident happens and the relevant body parts say, "nope."
No problem.
But if the host's brain engages in a particular way and says there's a problem and I don't want a baby right now...
then it's HOLY F@CKING HELL,
THAT'S MURDER! 😱😱😱
Been reading about the sexism, hypocrisy, & nonsense of this week's #SouthernBaptistConvention. In addition to trying to ban women from leadership, they've also condemned #IVF as "murder." I'm actually surprised it took 'em so long on that last piece. They used to draw the line at fertilized eggs only within a live womb. You get rid of that and it's murder. But you get rid of a fertilized egg in the lab and it was 🤷🏼♂️.
But now it's ALL murder (unless anything but the brain does it). #SBC🤦🏼

Former Southwestern Seminary professor Matt Queen indicted
"The indictment is the first public acknowledgment from the U.S. Department of Justice that it is investigating the SBC and its entities."

Brown concludes: Let the lawsuits continue and proliferate.
To wit: "Just last week, in Arkansas, clergy sex abuse survivors filed a lawsuit naming not only First Baptist Church of Benton but also the SBC, SBC Executive Committee, Arkansas Baptist State Convention, and Central Baptist Association. It’s a dreadful case involving allegations that scores of boys were sexually victimized over the course of 20 years…."
As Christa Brown, who has followed the Southern Baptist Convention's evasions of truth and political machinations for years, when it comes to dealing with sexual abuse of vulnerable people, says, we'd never have gotten the truth about Paul Pressler without lawsuits.
Because the SBC was determined to resist at all costs letting the truth be known.

As Mark Wingfield recently reported, Dallas attorney Gene Besen, who represents the Southern Baptist Convention, has stated publicly in a tweet,
"If want [sic] you want to hear is that Pressler was is [sic] dangerous predator who exploited boys based on his power and his false piety — I whole heartedly agree."
There are credible allegatinons, confirmed by an attorney for the SBC, that Pressler "exploited boys."

A number of folks replied to my thread linked below. As they've noted, though I spoke of Southern Baptist right-wing leader Paul Pressler abusing men, Texas Republican leader Jared Woodfill, an anti-gay activist, has sworn under oath that he knew from 2004 forward of credible allegations that Pressler had abused a child — and Woodfill did not cut his ties with Pressler.
As David French notes, when an icon of the left falls from grace sexually, right-wing folks and media are all over the story, reporting it in detail.
But when one of their own — e.g., Paige Patterson and Paul Pressler, chief architects of the hard-right turn of the Southern Baptist Convention — falls, it's crickets. Nada.
