Lots of butthurt in SBC threads, e.g.:

What has happened the past few years is that some SBC pastors and/or congregations have either:
1) realized that the SBC’s racist past is bad for their brand;
2) have come to agree that the SBC’s racist past was indeed morally abhorrent.

However, the Trumpers in the crowd are having none of it.

The good news is that the SBC is in frank decline according to its own numbers.

The denomination is down to its “lowest baptisms since 1946; lowest membership since 1990; lowest worship attendance since 1996,” according to historical analysis from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary.

“The true bad news is that when you put last year in the context of all previous years, it indicates the SBC is in the midst of a decline that shows no signs of either slowing down or turning around,” said Chuck Kelly, the seminary’s president.
