A body of men so convene,
On their religion they do glean.
That women can't lead,
In churches they mustn't be,
For Southern Baptists so it seems.
Though their vote in truth be quite foul,
For gender equality denied by the cowl.
Let us rejoice in defiance,
A fight for equality in alliance!

Plus, it’s a good way to shift the external conversation away from the SBC’s *very real* internal problems — which are incredibly problematic.

President Carter’s viral essay:
“My decision to sever my ties with the Southern Baptist Convention, after six decades.…was…unavoidable…when the convention's leaders, quoting a few carefully selected Bible verses and claiming that Eve was created second to Adam and was responsible for original sin, ordained that women must be ‘subservient’ to their husbands and prohibited from serving as deacons, pastors or chaplains….”

Someone had ripped out the page.
The page had passages from Isaiah that #Christian tradition associates as prophecies that foretell the coming of Jesus.
Womp womp.
