re: #203 Love-Child of Cassandra and Sisyphus

Here’s what happened today at the SBC convention, a group representing the largest Protestant denomination in the US:

They passed a resolution that is amongst the most extreme anti-abortion stance yet. It goes so far that any pastor who supports language in laws that can allow for abortion in particular cases should be censured. Now the SBC is not the Catholic church and pastors are locally hired by their congregation, so there is no central authority to fire any pastor.

But the language of the resolution is clear. The SBC wants women who have abortions to be prosecuted for murder (though I think there were amendments to the resolution that softened some of the stances.)

My SBC University cut ties with the SBC in 2005, over allowing Gay Rights activity on campus.
