Southern Baptists sidestep direct attack on critical race theory
---“If some people were as passionate about the gospel as they are about critical race theory, we’d win this world to Christ tomorrow,” Reverend Merritt said.---
Despite calls from some members for a harsh condemnation of critical race theory, the Southern Baptist Convention adopted a resolution on racial reconciliation that was more broad and general.
The Rev. James Merritt, chairman of the resolutions committee, made a direct appeal for the 15,680 messengers to not focus on critical race theory.
