From American Conservative<\/strong><\/a> [HT: BCM]<\/p>\n

A woman claims she was raped at a Southern Baptist seminary led by Paige Patterson, who urged her to stay silent about it (\u201cThey shamed the crap out of me,\u201d she told the\u00a0Post<\/em>), and then put her on probation for two years (the victim does not know why, but she senses that it was because she let a man into her home). And [Rick Patrick] the pastor of\u00a0First Baptist Church of Sylacauga, Alabama<\/a>, makes fun of her, of the rape, and of Southern Baptist men who have publicly spoken out against Patterson\u2019s prior remarks about women and violence!<\/p>\n

What is wrong with Paige Patterson, Rick Patrick, and men like them? What kind of Jesus do they serve?\u00a0Shame on them.<\/strong>\u00a0The anonymous woman in the\u00a0Post<\/em>story said she only told her husband last week about her rape. If that was the rape of\u00a0my<\/em>\u00a0wife \u2014 or sister, or daughter \u2014 that Rick Patrick was talking smack about\u2026<\/p>\n

How will the women in Rick Patrick\u2019s church take a word he says seriously after that? What kind of example is he for the boys and men of the church? And Paige Patterson, what kind of example is he?<\/p>\n

A very heavy reckoning is coming for Southern Baptists. It\u2019s already here. Those who defend Patterson\u2019s actions here, and Rick Patrick\u2019s, may think that they\u2019re standing up to liberals, but what they\u2019re really doing is destroying the denomination\u2019s moral authority.<\/p>\n

Think of it! A female seminarian says she was raped at a Southern Baptist seminary, was pressured to stay quiet about it and not to go to the police \u2014 and now a prominent conservative Southern Baptist pastor is\u00a0mocking her<\/em>\u00a0on social media.<\/p>\n
