I generally do not think anything of American protestants.

Pat Robertson died recently, and I meant to write a disdainful eulogy about how this guy used people’s affinity for family values to push Zionism. I didn’t get around to writing it, because I guess I didn’t care very much. I should write it today, maybe.

Anyway, the one caveat I usually give is that Southern Baptists are the best of the worst. I think their theology is stupid Calvinist tripe, which the followers do not even believe, but they stayed away from the hardcore kook “faith healer” stuff in the 1970s and 80s, and they are now refusing to go along with the anal-vaginal agenda.

You have to give credit where it is due.

NPR:

The Southern Baptist Convention voted overwhelmingly Wednesday to uphold earlier decisions to expel two churches because they have women pastors.

The decision came during the group’s annual meeting in New Orleans. The SBC heard appeals by California megachurch Saddleback and a smaller church, Fern Creek Baptist in Louisville, Ky.

Saddleback Church ordained a woman as a campus pastor, and the Kentucky congregation has had a woman pastor, Rev. Linda Popham, for more than three decades.

Video from 2 years ago

The SBC’s 2000 statement of faith, called Baptist Faith and Message, asserts that only qualified men can serve as pastors, and the nearly 13,000 voters, who are called “messengers,” voted to uphold the churches’ removals.

During the floor debate in New Orleans, Popham argued that women should be allowed to serve as pastors and that she had been faithfully serving in churches since she was a teenager.

She said that her congregation adhered to an earlier version of the Baptist Faith and Message, adopted in 1963. That version of the theological document does not exclude women from holding the office of pastor.

“We have a faith and practice,” Popham said of her congregation, “that identifies more closely with the Baptist Faith and Message than many other Southern Baptist churches, and I am personally more conservative than the most Southern Baptist pastors I know.”

Popham also said it’s not a problem for congregations to disagree with one another on the specifics of who’s eligible for ministry and that she would never suggest any congregation had to have a woman as its pastor.

Defending the churches’ expulsions was prominent SBC theologian and seminary president Albert Mohler.

He argued that the Bible restricts the role of pastor to men only.

“The issue of women serving in the pastorate,” he said, “is an issue of fundamental Biblical authority that does violate both the doctrine and the order of the Southern Baptist Convention.”

As Mohler spoke, voters interrupted him multiple times with applause in support of his position.

The women at Fern Creek and Saddleback will continue to serve as pastors there, but their congregations are no longer part of the Southern Baptist Convention.

After upholding the expulsions, messengers in New Orleans voted by a two-thirds majority to amend their constitution to state that the Southern Baptist Convention “Affirms, appoints, or employs only men as any kind of pastor or elder.”

I think it’s quite possible that this will end up in some kind of court room.

This would be a great place for the Democrats to take their fight against Christianity to the courts. There are a lot of different angles they could come from.

For a long time, I’ve been expecting a “metoo” phenomenon to happen to the Baptists, and maybe Christians in general. They did it to the Catholic Church years ago with the “pedophile” scandals. It was actually just homosexuals. But they wanted to distinguish between good and bad homosexuals, which is now, ironically, a goal of many Christian churches. I always think about the fact that “faggot” in Russian is “pedik” – because everyone knows all homosexuals prefer teen boys.

I’ve been thinking about starting a podcast. Wang Town is on hiatus, apparently (tell Paul Town to text me). I would need a team and I haven’t put that together yet. But when I do, interviewing a baptist pastor is something I would be interested in.

I’ve had an idea for a podcast for a long time where I have a long list of questions prepared, and ask them relatively quickly over a period of 90 minutes. I was thinking of calling it “21 Questions,” which is gimmicky and would probably sell because of that. I’ve also got kind of fed up with the “conversational podcast” model, which is just so overplayed. The issue is, I would get kicked off of every platform where that kind of gimmick would be most effective.

Southern Baptists Boots California Church for Having a Woman Priest https://www.anglinarchive.com/2023/02/23/southern-baptists-boots-california-church-for-having-a-woman-priest/ Thu, 23 Feb 2023 00:00:00 +0000

Well, hey – this is nice!

Someone did something!

AP:

The Southern Baptist Convention on Tuesday ousted its second-largest congregation — Saddleback Church, the renowned California megachurch founded by pastor and best-selling author Rick Warren — for having a woman pastor.

The vote by the convention’s Executive Committee culminates growing tension between the nation’s largest Protestant denomination — which officially opposes women as pastors — and a congregation whose story has been one of the biggest church-growth successes of modern times.

The committee cited Saddleback’s having “a female teaching pastor functioning in the office of pastor,” an allusion to Stacie Wood, wife of the current lead pastor of Saddleback, Andy Wood.

But the controversy began in 2021, when Warren ordained three women as pastors, prompting discussions within the denomination about possibly expelling the megachurch.


Not debatable

Warren retired last year after more than 42 years at Saddleback. He made an emotional speech in June 2022 at the Southern Baptists’ annual convention in Anaheim, standing by his ordination of women. He told delegates who debated the issue, “We have to decide if we will treat each other as allies or adversaries.”

But the Executive Committee took the vote Tuesday without public discussion after meeting in executive session.

It voted to approve a recommendation from the denomination’s Credentials Committee that Saddleback be deemed “not in friendly cooperation with the Convention” — the terminology used for ousting a church. While Southern Baptists’ statement of faith officially opposes women as pastors, each congregation is self-governing, so the main enforcement mechanism is to oust it from membership.

The Executive Committee’s motion said that Saddleback “has a faith and practice that does not closely identify with the Convention’s adopted statement of faith, as demonstrated by the church having a female teaching pastor functioning in the office of pastor.”

In a statement late Tuesday, the church didn’t indicate whether it planned to exercise its right to appeal the decision at the Southern Baptists’ next annual meeting, scheduled for New Orleans in June.

“We love and have always valued our relationship with the SBC and its faithful churches,” Saddleback elders said in a statement. “We will engage and respond through the proper channels at the appropriate time in hopes to serve other like-minded Bible believing SBC churches. Meanwhile, we remain focused on following God’s leadership to love and serve our church family and the communities around our campuses.”

Mike Keahbone, an Executive Committee member and Oklahoma pastor, said an appeal “appears likely.”

“This was the heart of the room; to let the messengers (delegates) of the SBC decide,” Keahbone tweeted Tuesday.

With its main campus in Lake Forest, south of Los Angeles, Saddleback Church has grown over four to 14 locations in Southern California, with an average weekly attendance of 30,000. There are four international campuses —in Hong Kong, Germany, the Philippines and Argentina.

Wood told The Associated Press last year that the Bible “teaches that men and women were given spiritual gifts by God.” His wife has served as teaching pastor for Saddleback.

No, they weren’t.

Women’s “spiritual gifts” all have to do with sex magic and blood rituals.

Just look at them.

Seriously, go look at a woman and claim her “spirituality” is anything other than straight from satan.

“The church should be a place where both men and women can exercise those spiritual gifts,” Wood said. “My wife has the spiritual gift of teaching and she is really good. People often tell me she’s better than me when it comes to preaching, and I’m really glad to hear that.”

The Executive Committee also voted to oust five other congregations — four over the issue of women as pastors and one over the issue of sexual abuse.

When Southern Baptists last updated their official statement of belief — The Baptist Faith and Message — in 2000, they added this clause: “While both men and women are gifted for service in the church, the office of pastor is limited to men as qualified by Scripture.”

The five churches ousted for having women as pastors “have been valued, cooperating churches for many years, and this decision was not made lightly,” Committee Chairman Jared Wellman said in a statement. “However, we remain committed to upholding the theological convictions of the SBC and maintaining unity among its cooperating churches.”

It’s good.

Shut that bitch down.

Shut her up and shut her off.

The SBC also slams faggots sometimes.

The SBC has in recent years authorized the ouster of churches that don’t conform to its statement of faith. This includes churches with women pastors, LGBTQ-inclusive polices, support for racism or failure to respond adequately to child sexual abuse, such as employing offenders as pastors.

In some cases, the committee has ousted churches for allegedly failing even to cooperate in answering to such allegations, as reflected in some of the motions approved on Tuesday.

It deemed Freedom Church in Vero Beach, Florida, to be not in friendly cooperation “based on a lack of intent to cooperate in resolving concerns regarding a sexual abuse allegation.” The denomination has been roiled by allegations in recent years of sexual abusers remaining in ministry, prompting the convention to vote for stricter policies. A task force focused on the issue this week announced the hiring of a firm to oversee a new database of credibly accused ministers.

I don’t trust these modern Baptists at all. From what I’ve seen, they worship the Jews and believe a lot of blasphemous gibberish.

However, if they did something good, that is good.

Southern Baptists Infighting Over Going Woke to Attract Democrats to Jesus https://www.anglinarchive.com/2021/06/13/southern-baptists-infighting-over-going-woke-to-attract-democrats-to-jesus/ Sun, 13 Jun 2021 00:00:00 +0000
Who needs Jews when you’ve got Judeo-Christians?

Imagine thinking that doing things that go against the teachings of Jesus Christ will help people who are directly against Jesus Christ to come closer to Jesus Christ.

The Wall Street Journal:

Evangelical Christians were a regular presence in the Trump White House. They laid hands on the president as they prayed for him, stood at his shoulder as he signed executive orders, and saw vindication for their support in his antiabortion policies and conservative judicial appointments.

Now, the Southern Baptist Convention, the country’s largest and most influential evangelical denomination, is at war over what direction it will take after the Trump presidency.

One faction argues the SBC should step back from its role in electoral politics in order to broaden its reach and reverse a 15-year decline in membership. Another faction says the denomination has been drifting to the left, and the way to retain and attract members is to recommit to its conservative roots and stay politically engaged. Each side accuses the other of straying from the SBC’s core mission.

The internal fissures exploded into public view when Russell Moore, the SBC’s top lobbyist in Washington and a frequent critic of Donald Trump, unexpectedly announced his resignation in May. Last week, letters he wrote criticizing other high-ranking SBC officials over their handling of sex-abuse allegations and attitudes about race became public.

Russell Moore

Mr. Moore’s sudden departure comes as the group’s president, J.D. Greear, ends his term this month, leaving two of the denomination’s most prominent jobs, which help define evangelicalism, open at once.

Mr. Moore’s board of trustees will appoint his successor. The election to replace Mr. Greear—Southern Baptists will vote at their annual meeting in Nashville, beginning Sunday—has turned into a battle for the future of the denomination and of evangelicalism more broadly.

“Do we want to be a Gospel people or a Southern, Republican culture people?” Mr. Greear said in a February speech. “We ought not make it hard for Democrats to come to Jesus.”

For decades, evangelicals have been a powerful, conservative bloc. But even as their political power grew, Southern Baptist membership rolls, like those of many religious groups in the U.S., have been shrinking.

Though still the country’s largest Protestant denomination, members currently number around 14 million, down from a peak of more than 16 million in 2006, following their largest drop in more than a century in 2020.

The denomination, which is 90% white, is also aging, and the close association with the Trump administration exacerbated generational and ideological divides. Southern Baptist leaders have been trying to win younger and more diverse members. But while younger evangelicals are still conservative, studies show they are more racially diverse, more likely to support rights for LGBT people and immigrants, and less supportive of Mr. Trump and his politics.

Ed Litton, an Alabama pastor running for SBC president, says evangelicals’ close association with the Republican Party risks alienating people they should be winning over, including the very demographics the SBC needs to attract to start growing again: young people and people of color. He isn’t suggesting Southern Baptists ally with Democrats; rather, like Mr. Greear, he wants them to distance themselves from all political parties and candidates.

On the other side, a group called the Conservative Baptist Network formed last year to combat what its members see as drift away from biblical orthodoxy toward liberalism. Their candidate, Mike Stone, says the convention’s leaders have pushed social justice causes that undermine the denomination’s mission, and are out of touch with Southern Baptists in the pews.

“We see some worldly ideologies, philosophies and theories that are beginning to make their way into Southern Baptist life,” Mr. Stone, the group’s candidate for SBC president, said to a Macon, Ga., church in March this year. “Our Lord isn’t woke.”

No matter who wins, the convention will have to confront the growing possibility of a schism.

This was bound to happen. The Judeo-Christians are utterly bankrupt. They are heretics who are now bordering on Satanism.

How about we stick to Jesus’ word and protect His teachings?

There should be no debate.

People are either following Jesus Christ, or they’re not.

Southern Baptist Convention Kicks Out Church Accused of Racism, Starts Doing Metooism https://www.anglinarchive.com/2018/06/18/southern-baptist-convention-kicks-out-church-accused-of-racism-starts-doing-metooism/ Mon, 18 Jun 2018 00:00:00 +0000 Andrew Anglin

Baptists used to be the sort of fundamental American church.

We have all these different branches, but they were the ones who really defended traditional American values.

Not anymore.

They are totally and completely cucked on race, and now they’re cucking out on women.

At that point, it’s only a matter of time before it’s gay marriage, trannies, the whole deal.

But I guess they will still be against abortion.

CBS News:

Leaders of the Southern Baptist Convention are expelling a Georgia church that was accused of racial discrimination. The denomination’s media office tweeted Monday that members of the executive committee had voted to withdraw fellowship from Raleigh White Baptist Church in Albany, Georgia.

The tweet says the church is being disassociated over “clear evidence” of racism. The church’s local association severed ties earlier this year.

News reports say the majority white Raleigh White Baptist agreed in 2015 to share its building with the majority black New Seasons Church, which outgrew it in size. Reports say Raleigh White members blocked members of the black church from entering one Sunday in March, prompting action.

Yeah, not hard to picture that, is it?

Irate black people.

The SBC has struggled to overcome its history as a denomination formed in defense of slaveholders.

Southern Baptists’ annual national meeting in Dallas opens Tuesday in an anxious mood as the denomination’s all-male leadership grapples with the fallout of multiple sexual misconduct cases.

One order of business is a draft resolution co-signed by dozens of SBC leaders calling on the largest Protestant denomination in the U.S. to repudiate any rhetoric or behavior that dishonors women. The resolution denounces those who commit or cover up such actions, and urges congregations and ministers to abide by all laws mandating the reporting of sexual abuse and assault.

In a late addition to the program, the SBC announced that Vice President Mike Pence would address the meeting on Wednesday.

Not on the agenda in Dallas is any reconsideration of the SBC’s doctrine of “complementarianism,” which espouses male leadership in the home and in the church and says a wife “is to submit herself graciously to the servant leadership of her husband.”

However, numerous SBC leaders are saying the doctrine needs to be observed in a way that’s respectful of women and encourages them to play an active role in church affairs.

In a recent video posted on Facebook, the Rev. J.D. Greear, one of two candidates to become the SBC’s next president, said the church has hurt itself by excluding women from top leadership posts.

Complementarianism “is biblical and we need to honor that … but at the same time recognize that God has gifted women with spiritual gifts,” he said. “We need to be as committed to raising them up in leadership and ministries as we are to our sons.”

Greear, 45, a megachurch pastor from North Carolina who sometimes preaches in jeans and shirts with no sport coat, faces pastor and former seminary president Ken Hemphill, 70, in the presidential election.

Next it’s yoga pants.

Look at this cuck.

“Jesus built my Nintendo Switch.”

smdh.

Greear narrowly lost the election for president in 2016, and has been viewed by many Southern Baptists as the inevitable winner this time. Hemphill was nominated by some veteran SBC leaders who view him as less likely to propose potentially divisive changes.

As the two-day meeting gets started, advocates of a greater role for women in the SBC plan a protest rally outside the convention center. Rally organizers want the SBC to create a database of clergy sex offenders and require all pastors and seminarians to undergo training on how to address domestic abuse and sexual assault.

The Bible is redpilled on the WQ.

But it’s pretty redpilled on most things, tbh. These people just don’t care anymore. They are trying to line up all of their values to that of globo homo.

Paige Patterson, the central figure in the most prominent of the SBC’s #MeToo cases, had been scheduled to deliver the featured sermon at the national meeting. However, he withdrew from that role Friday, heeding a request from other SBC leaders.

Patterson was recently dismissed as president of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Texas because of his response to two rape allegations made years apart by students. He also was accused of making improper remarks about a teenage girl’s body and contending that women who are in abusive relationships should almost always stay with their husbands.

This isn’t like, some new thing.

Christianity is thousands of years old, and they’ve held the same positions on women. Just like they held the same positions on race, homos, etc. Up until recently.

I don’t know how anyone can respect a religion that will change its basic moral premises based on the social climate of the time.

Kinda kills the whole “divine truth” concept, doesn’t it?

Southern Baptist Convention Rises Up Against Soros-Financed Conman https://www.anglinarchive.com/2017/03/17/southern-baptist-convention-rises-up-against-soros-financed-conman/ Fri, 17 Mar 2017 00:00:00 +0000 Eric Striker

Jeb Bush (left) with the Jeb Bush of Evangelical Christianity, Russell Moore.

The Pat Robertson era hustle was slimy, but the new crop of Evangelical and Baptist hucksters have managed to use religion for even more sickening ends.

Russell Moore is one of the major figures in Protestantism who has risen to the advocacy forefront in the last decade. As leader of the Southern Baptist Convention, Moore has been an important figure in the transformation of American Protestantism into a social club for owners of adopted black virtue-signal babies, people using federal dollars to transport infinite numbers of dangerous refugees and advocates for the Guatemalization of the USA.

Few Baptist laypersons see these policies as being in their or their family’s interest, but Moore and his Jewish financiers (Evangelical Immigration Table is a George Soros front-group) have a really clever trick up their sleeves: if you don’t support their agenda, you’re going to go to Hell!

“Orphans” is a codeword for “niggerbabies.”

The planned Jeb Bushization of already crappy conservatism fell through thanks to Trump’s 11th hour save. Now that religious people feel like they have a friend in the White House, a number of Churches that donate to the SBC are boldly standing up to this Zionist hack. He escaped with his job by the skin of his teeth.

Salon:

Russell Moore, a theologian who chairs the denomination’s Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission, has long been a critic of the old-school religious right. With Trump’s ascent to the presidency, Moore’s many internal critics have finally found the perfect opportunity to go after him since the group he heads is supposed to be the Southern Baptist Convention’s presence in the capital.

The tensions between Moore and his critics came to a head at a Monday meeting where Moore reported to the Southern Baptist Convention’s top leadership for a meeting to discuss complaints from many of the denomination’s churches about his views.

According to Baptist Press, the discussion between Moore and Southern Baptist Convention leader Frank Page at no time centered on whether Moore should resign his position, in contradiction to a report published by The Washington Post earlier in the day. The publication had quoted Page as saying that he had “no authority” over Moore’s employment.

…

With an estimated 15 million members in the United States, the Southern Baptists comprise the nation’s largest Protestant denomination and the second-largest Christian group after the Roman Catholic Church.

For some time now Moore has come under fire from conservatives within the Southern Baptist Convention for an array of alleged misdeeds, including the fact that he had once worked for a Democratic member of Congress. As one critic put it last year on a popular Baptist blog, “Is it a Southern Baptist value to support a partisan of Nancy Pelosi?” (Gene Taylor, the U.S. representative for whom Moore once worked, later left the Democratic Party and became a Republican.)

Moore has also been criticized for telling evangelicals to prioritize growing their movement and saving souls over political activism.
In a speech he delivered in October, the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission head condemned the religious right for being too closely aligned with the Republican Party.

…

Moore’s critics have accused his defenders of unfairly injecting race into the mix and say his tone is what’s of most concern. They say that Moore’s frequent judgments of evangelical culture and politics have been excessively personal and “snide,” especially in regard to Trump.

“When Dr. Moore wasn’t engaging in snide comments about Donald Trump, he was busy insulting evangelical voters who supported the now president-elect,” an Alabama-based blogger wrote in December. “Clearly, he attacked evangelicals who voted for Trump and insinuated they were less Christian.”

Opponents of Moore have also accused him of collaborating with George Soros, a billionaire known for his donations to left-wing political causes.

Seeing as Moore oversees the political wing of a religious denomination composed of both fat black women and Confederate flag loving Southerners, staying neutral on race issues would be in his interest. Instead, Moore sides against whites wherever he can, even going so far as taking up the phony Judeo-Leftist cause of blacks who want to commit crimes, fight the police, and not get shot in the process.

Aside from non-white immigration and Black Lives Matter, Moore discourages his constituents from engaging in politics while insisting they keep him as their emissary to the Washington. During the election, rather than doing his job of lobbying the government for the interests of Baptists (religious and non-religious) and endorsing the candidate most likely to listen (Trump), Moore spent the entire 2016 campaign moralizing about Donald Trump’s sex life.

The goal was to suppress turnout of one of the GOP’s most solid voter blocs so that Hillary Clinton would win, but the dirty tricks from this dusty playbook didn’t work this time around. Evangelicals delivered the South as expected, much to the dismay of Moore’s Jewish handlers.

The “religious right” as it has been known post-Reagan is dead, and that’s a good thing. For years, Israeli flag waving Cucktians have flushed their religion’s reputation down the drain by going along for every neocon Jew adventure in exchange for false promises that they’ll curtail abortion and cool the sexual revolution. The other side lied, they’re getting old, and now their leaders are telling them to import Mexicans so they can get warm bodies in the pews.

Finally, Evangelicals are fed-up and ready to fight back.

Better late than never.

Southern Baptist Convention Joins Other Establishment Churches in Endorsing Racial Suicide https://www.anglinarchive.com/2014/05/16/southern-baptist-convention-joins-other-establishment-churches-in-endorsing-racial-suicide/ Fri, 16 May 2014 00:00:00 +0000 Daily Stormer

Southern Baptist Convention, ashamed to be White, promotes diversity and racial suicide.

This is from an older article, but it is still just as relevant for today, especially with the degenerate behaviour we are seeing in the established churches and four major Christian denominations in the US ‘atoning for racism’.

From Occidental Dissent:

If there was ever any doubt that the Southern Baptist Convention was fully on board with Black Run America, it was dispelled this week with two bold stands taken by the Southern Baptist leadership.

Their goal is to emulate the Anglicans,destroy the Southern Baptist Convention, and replace Christianity with an unappealing, milquetoast version of Unitarianism, in order to accelerate its declining appeal to its core constituency, as has already happened in England.

(1) In the first move, the African-American pastor Fred Luter Jr. of New Orleans was elected Vice President of the Southern Baptist Convention as part of an ongoing effort impress The New York Times by “promoting diversity.” Next year, Luter is expected to leap frog to become President of the Southern Baptist Convention.

Richard Land told The New York Times, “About 30 years ago we were virtually all white — by intention, sadly but true.” At their recent meeting, the Southern Baptist Convention adopted “sweeping measures” to “give special attention to appointing individuals who represent the diversity within the convention, and particularly ethnic diversity” in committee appointments.

(2) If that were not enough, the Southern Baptist Convention adopted another resolution in Phoenix which calls for “a just and compassionate path to legal status” for illegal aliens, essentially a plea for amnesty in the name of Southern Baptists – the largest Protestant denomination in the United States – who overwhelmingly oppose “comprehensive immigration reform.”

Five years ago, I would have used this as ammunition to justify atheism and to blame Christianity for setting us down the path to racial suicide. Since I have moved beyond the White Nationalist world, I have arrived at a more mature understanding of this subject.

That such a move is happening now instead of five decades ago only shows that the Southern Baptist Convention really isn’t driving this train and is merely trying to impress the more powerful subversive forces in our culture.

The Southern Baptist Convention didn’t apologize for “racism” and opposing the Civil Rights Movement until 1995. I was fifteen years old at the time.

When the Southern Baptist Convention finally announced that Christianity had always been theologically opposed to “racism,” the organization was officially celebrating its 150th anniversary.

If this had always been so obvious (like, say, in the Ten Commandments), you would think they would have figured it out sooner. It wasn’t obvious because the very term “racism”was unknown in America until the 1930s. The Bible itself has nothing to say about“racism” and endorses slavery.

In the 1920s, the only people in America who considered “racism” to be a social problem were communists and their fellow travelers on the Far Left, who in 1961 drove through Alabama as the “Freedom Riders.”

It is an indisputable historical fact that the social movement against “racism” in America hatched out of this underground secular communist milieu and was ultimately inspired by millenarianism and class warfare rhetoric.

“Anti-racism” might dress itself up in the language of Christianity, but that is only a “mainstreamer” tactic used by Saul Alinsky’s disciples, a disingenuous way to appeal to a broader audience in a specific cultural context. The proof of its secular lineage is that the universities were captured and won over to the anti-racist cause long before the churches.

The Left has completely jettisoned every aspect of traditional Christian morality (the typical American Christian couldn’t tell you the seven deadly sins or the three theological virtues) and systematically replaced its real content with bogus sins against their own doctrine of political correctness: racism, sexism, nativism, classism, homophobia, heteronormativity, etc.

“Racism” is just the most well known example of a modern sin that Far Left vanguardists have successfully portrayed as a moral failing which was completely unknown to countless generations of Christians including Jesus Christ, St. Paul, and the Church fathers.

New Hampshire’s openly homosexual bishop with his ‘husband’ who he is now ‘divorcing’.

You would think that the Bible has a rock solid case to make against things like gay marriage, feminism, and communism. Just reading the Bible, you get the impression that the Christian God would be very displeased with men and women consuming pornography and happily fornicating outside of marriage in a setting of social equality.

If the Christian God disliked Sodom and Gommorah, what kind of impression must he have of San Francisco? That such places exist in our society – which represent the triumph of the “free love” movement, the “gay rights” movement, the “feminist” movement – illustrate that America is rapidly losing its Christian culture.

Taken seriously, Christianity is about preparing your soul to enter the Kingdom of God, nottrying to create Heaven on Earth. From a Christian perspective, utopianism can only be a ludicrous heresy because man has a fallen nature and we live in a fallen world, which can only be redeemed by divine intervention.

If you have an eternal soul, why should something as silly as “comprehensive immigration reform” matter to you? Do you really believe you are going to be judged on the basis of your political opinions?

Instead of attacking Christianity and needlessly isolating ourselves from our Christian neighbors, White Southerners should embrace their churches and use Christianity as a weapon to fight back against our enemies.

We have a far stronger and more appealing case to make against the likes of Richard Land than he does against us. Unfortunately, no one is really making that case (there are a few exceptions, see here, here, and here), which only magnifies the problem.

We shouldn’t abandon the University of Alabama or Auburn University because those institutions have been hijacked and turned against us. Nor should we abandon our own states and communities for some abstract utopia that only exists in the minds of a handful of fantasists on the internet.

As the polls and economic data have repeatedly shown, Black Run America is poised for a downfall.

White people are moving in one direction. The Southern Baptist leadership is moving in the opposite direction. Eventually, the leadership will lose this argument.

If we choose to influence this course of events, instead of sitting idly by on the sidelines, as we largely do now, this will happen sooner rather than later.

Note: Everything that has been said here about the Southern Baptist Convention is equally applicable to Mormons and Catholics.

Archbishop of Canterbury, head of Anglican church, now teaching children to have reverence for homosexuals and that being gay is 'good'.
