AP NewsBy PETER SMITHJune 10, 2025Southern Baptist delegates at their national meeting overwhelmingly endorsed a ban on same-sex marriage — including a call for a reversal of the U.S. Supreme Court’s 10-year-old precedent legalizing it nationwide.They also called for legislators to curtail sports betting and to support policies that promote childbearing.The votes Tuesday came at the gathering of more than 10,000 church representatives at the annual meeting of the nation’s largest Protestant denomination.The wide-ranging resolution doesn’t use the word “ban,” but it left no room for legal same-sex marriage in calling for the “overturning of laws and court rulings, including Obergefell v. Hodges, that defy God’s design for marriage and family.” Further, the resolution affirmatively calls “for laws that affirm marriage between one man and one women.”
How many times have you heard conservatives tell us they don't like our-your-face politics... but it seems like it is okay for them to force their religion down our throats!
Also at their convention another AP News article reported (Now I'm not making this up)...
A proposed resolution says legislators have a duty to “pass laws that reflect the truth of creation and natural law — about marriage, sex, human life, and family” and to oppose laws contradicting “what God has made plain through nature and Scripture.”
But this is part that got me...
And conservatives of various stripes have echoed one of the resolution’s call for pro-natalist policies and its decrying of “willful childlessness which contributes to a declining fertility rate.”
What do they want? A law banning childlessness? Naw they are not trying to force their religion on us!
