>>>The Southern Baptist Convention, the country's second largest church, said Boy Scout executives who pushed to allow openly gay Scouts without properly consulting members should be ousted from office.

>>>Then the last line of the article..
>>>“'...We teach our children that God is in everyone and everything. We don't discriminate,' Rev. Stephanie Seigh told CNN...."
>>>
>>>Now that seems like a rather obvious thing for a Baptist to say - yet I guess the Southern Baptist Convention does not agree with miss Seigh and will instead act as self-rightous-better-than-you arrogant a-holes. The term "hypocrite" once again seems fitting for these bible-thumpers.

>>Stephanie Seigh is not a Baptist and she also is not affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention, and nothing in the article indicates otherwise.
>>The Southern Baptist Convention statement itself was not discriminatory against the issue itself, but against procedure (although of course Christian faith does discriminate gays as sinful, so someone might want to discriminate that faith in this matter). However, some discrimination would have been welcome in dealing with certain gay priests in the past...
>>So the term "hypocrite" seems to be fitting for the entire society we live in.

>I understood that Stephanie Seigh was not part of that orgainization. What I find disturbing is that this huge group of so called christian-do-gooders somehow have decided that singling out a group of people to exclude because they're different that them is somehow the right thing to do. The fact that this is thinly veiled as a procedural complaint is as laughable as the hypocrisy behind it. Ahh well - I suppose in the long run it won't matter - eventually this religion will vaporize as all religions before it and be looked back as jokingly as greek mythology.

Then I misread your statement that "this seems like a rather obvious thing for a Baptist to say", I thought you referred to the quote you mentioned before that. So then what was the obvious statement for a Baptist to say?
