  • I’m no longer a baptist (or even a Christian), but I grew up in a baptist church and heard all about Saddleback Church and Rick Warren and read his books. 15-20 years ago, he was quite popular and well-liked in baptist and many non-baptist Christian communities, at least in my area in central California.

    But 1 Corinthians 3:14 is pretty unambiguous. I don’t agree with it because I think the whole bible is a bunch of nonsense, but this is basically the expected outcome of taking the bible literally. Also the extreme politicization of SBC has been there since the beginning, so this kind of thing isn’t really a surprise.
