SBC removes sentence: "Confederate flag serves for some as memorial to loved ones who died in the Civil War."

The Southern Baptist Convention on Tuesday urged Christians to stop displaying the Confederate battle flag, recognizing that it is perceived by many as a "symbol of hatred, bigotry and racism" that offends millions of people.

The resolution, originally presented by African-American Pastor Dwight McKissic, had stirred debate and led to at least one call to withdraw it. The version presented to thousands of delegates to the denomination's annual meeting in St. Louis was less strongly worded.

    1. They are losing members, but as long as money is in the
      equation, they will probably accept it and become even more PC to the detriment of all.
