The SBC et al are making a stupid mistake, a careless mistake given the issue, piggybacking the issue of abortions due to disability with a Hail Mary like Roe V Wade. Is everything a political football?! *&%$!!@
“The SBC Ethics and Religious Commission filed a legal document Nov. 15 asking the high court not only to uphold a 2016 Indiana law criminalizing abortions performed for reasons of race, sex selection or “diagnosis of Down syndrome or any other disability,” but to accept the case as an opportunity to overturn Roe v. Wade.”
I had to read that twice … what the what?! I hate RvW, but baby steps are still progress. Go for small potatoes. Alot of small potatoes! Why don’t they see that?
I stopped reading when they threw in the Nazi comments. Makes their case look trite – like the gibberish of chat rooms.
The pastor’s pay link was depressing. My previous pastor made 4 times what my family of 4 gets, but he was an uneducated non-Christian. Why bother paying a “living” wage if it doesn’t even nring a good result. The pastorate seems like a dying field anyway. People probably shouldn’t go into it expecting to make a bunch.
J2,
As the endowments run out for the mainline churches those salaries will go down considerably.
The evangelical churches will pay on market share…
