Baptists plan exodus from Boy Scouts

By Daniel Burke, CNN Belief Blog Co-Editor

(CNN) – For Southern Baptist pastor Tim Reed, it was Scripture versus the Scouts.

“God’s word explicitly says homosexuality is a choice, a sin,” said Reed, pastor of First Baptist Church of Gravel Ridge in Jacksonville, Arkansas.

So when the Boy Scouts of America voted to lift its ban on openly gay youths on May 24, Reed said the church had no choice but to cut its charter with Troop 542.

“It’s not a hate thing here,” Reed told CNN affiliate Fox 16. “It’s a moral stance we must take as a Southern Baptist church.”

2. it is a bigoted stance, sir

AND YOU KNOW IT

3. The Southern Baptists are well practiced bigots, they exist apart from Baptists because

Baptists took a stand against slavery and the Southern Baptists split because they favored slavery. So they are really good at exodus motivated by their supremacist dogma.

So for the Southern Baptists this splitting off to express contempt for their fellow man is part of their origin myth, this is what they do, who they are, how they were born, it is what they do best. It must be a thrilling time for them, really.

4. The exact same moral stance

that favored slavery.

5. I suppose since they rely so much of their morals on the Bible, we'll see...

...lots of stoning, murdering and other fun activities caused by doing things that are against God's will.

6. Good riddance! I'm all for ostracizing and shunning the bigoted fundies!

Let them know that they can rejoin society and be allowed to have friends again in the real world when they pull their heads out of their asses.

7. Way to live in the past there, Southern Baptists.

8. Good riddance - better off without them

They can stay stranded in the Stone Age for all I care.
