Baptist Have Busy Week Suing Other Baptists

Ethics Daily provides a professional sounding breakdown of three Baptist lawsuits reported in the news this last week. Here is the not-so-professional version of the same stories: Some of Jerry Sutton's flock seem to think that budget transparency is worth suing over. A former, female professor, at Southwestern Seminary takes her shots at the great white hunter's hiring/firing practices. And, Belmont and the TBC continue to build the pot in their poker game of which institution can prove to be the most stubborn. 'Not a great week of headlines for Baptists.

There was a glimmer of hope in the Ethics Daily post,

"Georgetown College and the Kentucky Baptist Convention agreed to loosen ties amicably in 2005, after both sides conceded it was in their best interest to avoid a legal battle."

Imagine that. Rational Baptist people resolving their differences outside the realm of a civil court. Where, oh where, could they have ever conceived such an idea!?
