As we reported previously, Tennessee Baptists rejected the Analytical Tools of Identity Politics in a resolution denouncing Critical Race Theory and Intersectionality as “inconsistent with a Biblical worldview and theology.” It was a strong condemnation of the use of Critical Race Theory by Christians. It was the kind of resolution that Southern Baptists would have preferred over the disaster from Birmingham in Resolution 9—which approved the use of Critical Race Theory and Intersectionality as “analytical tools.” Good news. Tennessee may have company in condemning the Resolution 9.
Georgia too is considering a resolution against this form of Identity Politics infecting the Southern Baptist Convention.
