1/Southern Baptist Convention Annual,1932. This contributes an insightful look into the Church's heart regarding marriage outside of one's race at the time that 8-9 of 10 Africans in America still occupied Confederate states. Many were descended from mulattos,like my grandparents
2/At the same time,over 90% of those in Congress, the Supreme Court and Presidency had been Protestants or Catholics from colonial times forward. @VoddieBaucham @johnmacarthur @TGC @9Marks @DavidAFrench @profyancey @ThabitiAnyabwil @DennyBurk @MarkDever
4/A Dissertation on Interracial marriage provides clues to the Church's informing on the issue. "Religion and Interracial Marriage"

5/ Southern Baptist Convention, 1945 Annuals …ections-baylor.quartexcollections.com/Documents/Deta…
6/Progress was being made and it shows the systemic influence that the #SBC wielded in America. It went far beyond preaching the gospel long before this point and was in place to try to assert the influence used in the opposite direction of Church fathers for Africans in America
At the time of the 1945 Southern Baptist Annual, my maternal grandparents were in their mid-20's when this was published had been up North about a decade. Maternal great grandparents had lived most of their lives in a Confederate state by this time, South Carolina. @TGC @9Marks
8/At the time of the 1932 Southern Baptist Annual, my maternal grandparents were 12 & 13 when this was published and still in a Confederate state. Maternal great grandparents had lived all of their lives in a Confederate state by this time, South Carolina. @TGC @9Marks
@TGC @9Marks 9/Southern Baptist Conference Annuals , 1921 1927 with glimpses of progress

@DerwinLGray Excellent and important points. Long before there was CRT,the Church has confronted racism on the basis of the imago Dei in the African in America and neighbor love. CRT was never needed.Yet then marxism & socialism were charged as a means of evasiveness.
@DerwinLGray Taken together with ideas such as a seared conscience as outlined in scripture along with the discipling of generations in error "creating shade" in error by teaching that Jesus affirms partiality along racial lines & enslavement of kidnapped Africans.

@spegums @RevRhodes @JustinEGiboney I misunderstood that. I apologize. We did the same except as a family of 7 for 18 years. It wasn’t only this . There were good relationships, but race undeniably was a part of that community and the intimacy.
@spegums @RevRhodes @JustinEGiboney We rarely discussed race, but with the 2nd Obama term & entrance of Trump it became a part of how history was dealt with. It is also not clear how it would not given the resolutions for nearly 100 yrs from Sbc, PCA, etc on racism past and present
@spegums @RevRhodes @JustinEGiboney Here is a survey. When you are raising kids ranging 3-20, they read & hear and have legitimate questions & concerns. These come up in youth groups.

@spegums @RevRhodes @JustinEGiboney I’d also add the degree of duplicity as it pertains to deeming the error of one’s heroes passable while those of others fatal. Take CS Lewis beloved an erroneous on several essentials. Esteemed to the youngest among us.
@spegums @RevRhodes @JustinEGiboney Then take MLK. His error diminishes his rightness on the matter of race. In a sense, that rightness is his exception, while the error on essentials of CS barely discernible. This sort of dishonest measure & uneven weight is pervasive. 2/

1/Reagan’s Therapeutic abortion act 1967 as Republican Governor of California -exceptions for physical and/or mental health of the mother; rape; incest diva.sfsu.edu/collections/sf…
2/This gets even more insightful. The religious right supported Reagan who had signed the abortion act into law vs. Carter who was anti abortion. Makes this 49 yrs and 63 mil babies killed more tragic. christiancentury.org/blogs/archive/…
3/So who were the villains that got this Roe case established as law in the 1st place. Is it Reagan and Nixon who are on the hook for establishing abortion as protected under the constitution. How did the evangelicals who supported those elections feel. Did they wish they hadn’t?

1/As each trimester begins, abortion support has plummeted. By the 2nd trimester, there is significantly lower support regardless of party. This conservative legacy of Roe has fallen out of favor. That of no fault divorce has not. forbes.com/sites/alisondu… @TGC @9Marks @Heritage ImageImageImageImage
2/ Reagan & Nixon’s success in getting Abortion established as precedent and protected under the Constitution will likely over 49 years may meet the end of prohibition and the gambling legislation. This and gambling started & ended by Conservatives @ostrachan @TGC @9Marks @CPAC
3/ Jerry Falwell Sr came around to admitting that evangelicals were late to opposed elective abortions (Catholics were well ahead). At the outset Criswell & other churches approved of abortion & affirmed Roe. @ostrachan @TGC @9Marks @Heritage @NRO
