Well, my, I got completely distracted by the Nashville Statement brouhaha. I copied over a list of the initial signers (154) into a spreadsheet and started slicing and dicing. I discovered a few things. None of this should be surprising to any of us.

Sex of signers:
Male: 139
Female: 15

Race of signers:
White: 138
Asian: 2
Black: 7
Middle Eastern: 1
Hispanic: 2
No picture: 4
(ETA: Yes, by God, if I didn’t know who they were, and sometimes even if I did, I looked up a picture just to be sure.)

Number of white males who signed: 124 (or 80.5 percent)

Number of signers who are on Trump’s Evangelical council: 5
*James Dobson
*James Robison
*Ronnie Floyd
*Richard Land
*Jack Graham

Number of signers who covered up child sex abuse at Covenant Life Church, Gaithersburg, MD: 1
*CJ Mahaney

(Yes, I have an itch about Mahaney, what he covered up was horrible. Google Nate Morales for more details.)
