"Many hundreds of kids have been raped, sexually assaulted, and sexually abused by Southern Baptist pastors. Southern Baptist leaders have known about this for decades, and in 2019, the Abuse of Faith series brought widespread media attention to the problem. Since then, it seems every week has brought still more headlines. …

The film attempts to discredit survivors, both dead and alive."

Christa Brown, a survivor of sexual abuse at the hands of a Southern Baptist minister when she was a teen, responds to CrossPolitic's recent film claiming that the Southern Baptist Convention has gotten "played" by a conspiracy of women eager to undermine evangelicalism:

"The film is deeply misogynistic. It’s also a propaganda film of abuse denialism."

And the defensive posture coming from groups like this always freely employs lies, since lies told to do the Lord's work aren't, they want to imagine, lies at all.

Meanwhile people with eyes wide open are walking away from religious groups like this (there are definitely strong parallels with sectors of US Catholicism) — walking away in droves for very good reasons.

They are furious that the Southern Baptist Convention apologized for its support of slavery and segregation. They want to claim that it was forced to issue that apology by wicked forces trying to tear the SBC down.

When you start from these starting points — I'm right; I'm holy; God is on my side; you are not right or holy; you are on the devil's side — there is nowhere to go except on the defensive.

Their starting point: women are trying to undermine evangelical churches, because women are (fill in the blank: wicked is the starting word). Also key to the starting point: evangelical churches are always right and holy and never make mistakes and anyone calling on them to admit or apologize for mistakes is doing the devil's work.

"The Trump years are similarly giving up the white evangelical game. ...

It’s not just about abortion. The fixation on abortion is revealing of larger tendencies in white evangelicalism—prizing order and control, gravitating toward certainty, simplifying moral complexity—that has made those within it susceptible to authoritarianism."

"At least it’s the one they most often cite, and you would be a fool to take them all at their word. ...

In truth, on the movement level, abortion has always been a fig leaf for other, less defensible issues since the 1970’s, when Religious Right leaders seized on it as a new, politically galvanizing cause, once defending segregation in religious schools became too gauche."

Raised in the household of Southern Baptist missionaries to Africa, Holly Berkley Fletcher knows the "pro-life" ethos of white evangelical Trump voters inside out; she used to promote that ethos herself. Now she's calling the bluff of white evangelical "pro-life" folks on the abortion issue:

"Abortion is THE reason white evangelicals have supported Donald Trump, the basis of their devilish bargain."
