Campbellsville University draws scrutiny of Southern Baptist Convention affiliate

The Kentucky affiliate of the Southern Baptist Convention is looking into complaints that one of its affiliated colleges, Campbellsville University, declined to extend the contract of a theology professor and that some of its professors teach evolution.

[…]

Claims that Campbellsville “retains other professors in the School of Theology who reject biblical authority and professors in other disciplines who affirm evolution are difficult for many Kentucky Baptists to swallow,” Chitwood wrote on his blog. “This is especially true when well over $1 million of their missions offerings are helping pay the salaries of those professors every year.”

[…]

He said some current and former students told him of professors questioning the “the historical accuracy of the Bible. Some professors seemed to embrace evolution as a fact rather than a theory and were not open to arguments regarding creationism” — the belief in the literal truth of the Genesis story of God’s direct creation of Adam and Eve.

*gasp*

Imagine that, some professors in a college actually ” embrace evolution as a fact rather than a theory.”

What is this world coming to?
