If the accusation is valid, and I don’t say it it isn’t, that a groomer and/or abuser in top Southern Baptist ranks was knowingly allowed to roam freely about, this is not an argument that the SBC conservative resurgence went too far, but rather that it didn’t go nearly far enough
If we can know, not merely conjecture, but KNOW that many in leadership knew but said and did nothing, why be silent about THEIR names? They can still be held to account even now.
And the validity of the Southern Baptist conservative resurgence stands or falls on the merits of theological claims about Biblical inerrancy and related issues of faithfulness. The presence of an abuser in the top ranks of the SBC neither proves or disproves anything in the Lausanne or Chicago Statements
I'm sorry, Christa. The losses and fallout feel unending sometimes.
💔💔💔
Excellent Christa. (I've never seen anyone using pooh-bahs in writing, I often say it, and in the same way you used it here)
