After decades of refusing to reckon with clergy sex abuse, stonewalling survivors, putting up dog-n-pony shows, using survivors as props & pawns, spinning PR from toothless task forces, & ugly #AmicusBrief, SBC Exec Comm announces new abuse response department.

Sub-zero credibility. #ThisistheSBC
The SBC hired its first-ever abuse response coordinator. This new FT administrative position, to be filled by nonprofit leader Jeff Dalrymple, will contend with diminished enthusiasm following earlier task force efforts not completing top-priority abuse reforms. www.tennessean.com/story/news/r...

Anyone looking to ban a book from a school should have to prove they read it by presenting a book report to the school committee.

If you don’t have a local library card, it should be your New Year’s resolution to get one. It’s an easy resolution to keep and you’ll actually use it, trust me.

The alleviation of women's abuse "is made less likely by the mandated subservience of women by Christian fundamentalists. What is especially disappointing...is the docile acceptance by so many strong Christian women of their subjugation & restricted role." - Jimmy Carter (RIP)
