Southern Baptists were formed to use God to justify slavery. No surprise that they continue to be disgusting people.
This doesnt go far enough. They need to ban women and men!
Only spiritual entities that have ascended to a higher plane and propagate through dementional shifting.
Just like in the bible.
It should be only non-binary hermaphrodite asexuals allowed to spread the word of the lord, as they are the true form of the unsplit god.
Women constitute 50% of the population, yet they keep voting for conservative assholes that restrict their freedoms. Honestly as a man it just doesn't make sense
So many pick-mes among women who vote like this. They think they are different and will be seen as "one of the good ones" with special rights to be part of the "cool kid in-group" while the other side just thinks of them as useful idiots.
It's sad, women have a lot of power to change the world into a more feminist one, but choose this path. A lot of this conservative alt right guys see women as lesser people.
let's not forget that the sole reason that the Southern Baptist Convention exists is because they wanted to keep black folks out of their churches. When the big Baptist association was taking a stand on civil rights, the scum bags that would become the Southern Baptists took their ball and left.
Oh no, it was way worse than that.
The SBC existed because Triennial Convention wouldn't accept slavery. The SBC was formed to uphold slavery. They didn't apologize as a congregation for their views until 1995. 150 years is a bit late to the party but it certainly helps inform why many of us aren't surprised by this.
I am sure they will realize they are making a mistake and apologize 150 years from now.
I firmly believe that a woman who is in her heart a deeply racist and hateful person should be allowed to become a SBC pastor.
I am sure they will realize they are making a mistake and apologize 150 years from now.
It took them 150 years to say they were sorry the congregation was formed by people who thought other people were livestock. I would be shocked if they actually apologized for less.
Oh damn! My bad. I can't believe I was so wrong.
I mean... they've done a FANTASTIC job on their PR campaign hiding that history so I don't blame others for missing it. But I'll certainly be the first one to point it out every chance I can. There's a lot of terrible religions, and the SBC may not be the exact worst when Scientology exists. but it's certainly up there.
No surprise from the southern traitors and the baptist heretics.
oppressive banjo noises
Everyone who's been to a church knows how vitally important the speaker's pennis is to the sermon.
Remember, the Southern Baptists split from the mainstream Baptist Church because they supported enslavement.

Not surprising at all tbh
I could get behind the idea of banning churches (in general).
I vote to ban churches and all religious buildings.
Hell, ban religions. The world would be such a better place without the stoneage fairytales
Lets tax churches with more than 10 million dollars in assets.

As long as the Bible remains the way it is, this will keep happening. And as long as churches keep propping up doctrines like sola sciptura and biblical inerrancy, modifications to passages in the Bible will remain a niche thing.
Which is wild. Theologically, the Bible is equal parts history, allegory, and legal framework. Not everything in it is meant to be taken literally, or even treated as error-free, or even as a permanent and immutable institution.
Hell, it even has porn in it. Straight up, Song of Solomon is just the Bible's center fold.
Yeah, it's pretty cognitively dissonant to hold those doctrines, because the Bible is so full of self-contradiction that every Bible-believer necessarily has to pick and choose which doctrines they adopt.
Plus, by their own measures, their obsession with the book really is a form of idolatry, or bibliolatry as they call it.
Recently came across articles and videos of women who are actively fighting to lose their right to vote (they only want their husbands to), so yeah, this tracks.
This is why we have to control the national educational curriculum on a national basis, and not allow backwards states to destroy the lives of their citizens by keeping them ignorant, just so they can control and exploit them. If they won't properly take care of the intellectual well-being of their own citizens, then we will.
What's the point of having two catholic churches? This is removing the SB's only marketing niche.
Southern Baptists:
- full of pedophiles
- has women pastors
Catholic Church
- full of pedophiles
- no women priests
No no... the SBC has full on thinking slaves are a good thing so much so that's why they exist racism, that's their marketing niche.
Trad-wives speed running to Gilead
It's very difficult to progress as a nation when you have millions of people who refuse to enter the 21st century.

While driving one day in Toronto, I accidentally tuned the radio to a US based "Christian" radio station. It was absolutely horrifying. There was nothing about Jesus AT ALL and a lot of "armour of god" and "defend yourself against enemies of the faith" and "build the empire of God's faithful here on earth".
Batshit crazy terrorist shit.
Batshit crazy suicidal death-cult shit.
