You knew this was coming. You did. Maybe you stuffed it in the back of your head hoping it would skip your attention. It hasn’t. In fact, the Southern Baptist Church has put a neon light on it.
Saying the whole idea of justice and equality is way too liberal, the Rev. Grady Arnold of Cuero has filed a resolution calling for the denomination to reject social justice as “evil.”
Justice = Evil.
I am pretty damn certain that Trump told him that.
The Right Reverend, Grand Wizard, and Holy See of Cuero, Texas, has proclaimed that he’s had enough of these social justice warriors and wants the Southern Baptist to stop preaching about it. I guess I’m just a little confused because I can’t recall when they ever started preaching about it.
Quoting columnist Bud Kennedy in Fort Worth —
“This social justice is creeping down into local churches,” Arnold said, as if that were a bad thing.
Bet you guessed what’s coming next: the slippery slope.
“If we start down this road today,” he asked, “where will it end?”
More justice?
The Southern Baptist will be conventioning in mid June. I can hardly wait.
