Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary hires professor promoting a ‘different religion’

The Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary hired a professor who promotes a “different religion,” through support of the Revoice Conference, according to conservative Southern Baptists.

The point was made in an important article from Dr. Tom Ascol, “Rosaria Butterfield has stated, speaking of the Revoice conference, ‘Gay Christianity is a different religion.’ Yet, President Danny Akin, President of Southeastern, has hired Dr. Karen Swallow Prior to teach at his school when she has unapologetically endorsed a conference that, in the words of Dr. Butterfield, promotes a different religion. And he expects Southern Baptists to sit back quietly and pay her salary.
