Southern Baptist Can’t Stop Talking About Gay People

Reval

President R. Albert Mohler wants a cure for homosexuality! Rev. Mohler, president of the leading Southern Baptist seminary suggest publicly a biological basis for homosexuality and wants prenatal treatments to help prevent it. Why can’t the Southern Baptist stop talking about Gay Americans all the time?

The president of the leading Southern Baptist seminary has suggested that a biological basis for homosexuality may be proven, and that prenatal treatment to reverse gay orientation would be biblically justified.

The Rev. R. Albert Mohler Jr., president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Ky., and one of the country’s evangelical leaders, posted the article on his personal Web site earlier this month.

Mr. Mohler said in the article that scientific research “points to some level of biological causation” for homosexuality.

In another post from the President of the leading Southern Baptist seminary he states:

We hope for modern science to heal our diseases and excuse our sins. The Bible will not allow this evasion. Our sinful behavior, rooted in biology or not, is a matter for which we are fully accountable. After all, as the Psalmist confessed: "Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin my mother conceived me" (Psalm 51:5).

Visiting with one of my friends today who is in the ministry about the newest story from the Baptist he commented:

Don't blame Christians . . . just those in particular faiths! Actually, I'm kind of thrilled.
If this University Professor is willing to concede that there is a biological genetic possibility for sexuality then they will have to compare scriptural arguments to reasons for not accepting the way folks are born.  He has opened a door that will force the Southern Baptist to discuss this issue in a whole other arena.  The Rights of the Unborn, The Rights of the Physically Challenged, The morality of Biological and Genetic engineering!

I just know that I don’t make this stuff up; life is so much stranger than fiction...
