LINK Southern Baptist Church Faces Expulsion After Pastor Decides to Be Less Bigoted | Hemant Mehta | Friendly Atheist | Patheos

Towne View Baptist Church in Kennesaw, Georgia may be kicked out of the Southern Baptist Convention early next week because its leader committed an unforgivable sin.

He allowed a same-sex couple to become members of the congregation.

That’s seriously the entire “controversy.” Rev. Jim Conrad says a third of his congregation already abandoned the church because he let the gay couple in, and now the entire church is in danger of not being Real Baptists™.

Oh well, they have so many other not quite as nutty sects they could shuffle over to. Assuming the pastor has some fans in the congregation, he can always draw in a few more as a liberal branch. Maybe even convert to a Unitarian church.

Mmmm “A real Baptist” ??

Just like the Jehovahs Witness told me when I was 16.....”Our religion is the only real religion”.

Unfortunately this isn’t some goofy movie, but real life. Sick Pedophile Priests.

That's very sad. I have better chance of marrying a man I do a woman these days.

How would that be? Are you trying to get married? SMH

@barjoe I'm a little more attract to men than women right now. I would like to get married some day. Living alone suck sometimes. SMH?

@freedom41 I thought you were being critical of marriage equality. I got that wrong. Sorry.

@barjoe no problem.

Imo, Religio-Slug style Discrimination, Arrogance, Self-righteousness, Bigotry, Homophobia, etc, etc, are still, regrettably, alive, well and thriving I see.
