  6. As Mark Wingfield recently reported, Dallas attorney Gene Besen, who represents the Southern Baptist Convention, has stated publicly in a tweet,

    "If want [sic] you want to hear is that Pressler was is [sic] dangerous predator who exploited boys based on his power and his false piety — I whole heartedly agree."

    There are credible allegatinons, confirmed by an attorney for the SBC, that Pressler "exploited boys."

  7. A number of folks replied to my thread linked below. As they've noted, though I spoke of Southern Baptist right-wing leader Paul Pressler abusing men, Texas Republican leader Jared Woodfill, an anti-gay activist, has sworn under oath that he knew from 2004 forward of credible allegations that Pressler had abused a child — and Woodfill did not cut his ties with Pressler.

    But when one of their own — e.g., Paige Patterson and Paul Pressler, chief architects of the hard-right turn of the Southern Baptist Convention — falls, it's crickets. Nada.
