Southern Baptist pedo conspiracy?
This was one of the most under-reported stories of the year 2008, according to Time magazine:
"The Southern Baptist Convention rejected a proposal to create a central database of staff and clergy who have been convicted or indicted for molesting minors."
SBs are well known for being, well, unevolved--some of them seem to think that Jesus spoke English, Adam and Eve rode dinosaurs to church, and that every word of the Bible is true. (In their defense, however, they probably never read the Book of Exodus.) Still, this seems a bit over the top.
Maybe they think that comps are tools of the devil--which seems probable, now that I think of it. Anyway, since SBs tend to be strongly anti-Catholic, it seems odd to me that they should try the same sort of cover-up that the Inquisitor Pope is trying to do away with.
