Some might argue that abortion was only the beginning, if that’s how your bingo card was set up — you might just have won this one. According to reports, the Southern Baptist Convention was underway recently where attendees reaffirmed their next societal targets: the gays, people who don’t have kids, and others that they all say run counter to what it means to be human.

The Southern Baptists, America’s largest Protestant denomination, is preparing to attack modern gay rights in the United States. At their most recent convention, the group reaffirmed their beliefs that the gays; the childless, porn watchers, and related are running counter to what it means to be human.
During the same convention, it was also announced that they’re supporting a resolution that seeks to ultimately overturn Obergefell v. Hodges otherwise the case that made gay marriage the law of the land in the United States.
It all went down in Dallas this week during the group’s convention. Delegations by the plenty all passed and supported a resolution calling for the ‘overturning of laws and court rulings, including Obergefell that defy God’s design for marriage and family.’
Though they might run into a few issues. A reversal of Obergefell would not at least fully spark a ban on gay marriage. Members of the church are also calling for laws that ‘affirm’ marriage between one man and one woman. Interestingly, a 2022 Gallup poll found that despite groups like The Southern Baptists spewing their hate that 70% of Americans support same-sex marriage.
But the resolution doesn’t stop there. The non-binding resolution also calls for the full defunding of planned parenthood, and ‘safety’ in female athletic competitions with the rise of transgender athletes.
