"...It reveals the destruction that liberalism has caused in many Baptist colleges. This same damage has happened at Belmont University in Nashville, TN."Belmont is certainly suffering. Just this year: They still have a Board of Trustees...you know, the very same Baptist men and women that Tennessee Baptists' elected/approved, then summarily vacated back in May, but who are STILL running the university. They are suffering through a record enrollment of over 4500 students. They are suffering over a brand new dorm, two new parking garages, a new health sciences building, and an upcoming new theater facility. They are suffering over an unprecedented fifth consecutive year of academic success in conference athletics (not to mention an NCAA tournament milestone). They are suffering through growth in the School of Religion and their 7 new majors. They are suffering over breaking into the U.S. News and World Report's Top 10 list. Damn those liberals...see how they are destroying Belmont!
Meanwhile, the conservative leadership in our Baptist Convention is celebrating(?) yet another year of decreased percentages in Baptisms across the convention...and attempted to elect a convention president whose Tennessee Baptist Church didn't give a dime to the Cooperative Program in 2005. Hmmmm, perhaps conservative Baptist pastors and denominational leaders should do a little more work on their congregational flocks before throwing up smoke screens, diverting attention away from their own failings (bless their hearts).
Meatloaf sanwiches...now there's a dish that Belmont's cafeteria could use to support the suffering on campus. But then, they'd probably mess it up with a liberal coating of sauce.
