On Sunday, an unplanned liturgy of “ICE out!” and “Justice for Renee Good!” erupted in the sanctuary of a Southern Baptist church in St. Paul, Minnesota.
Makes me sad and mad. I grew up in a Southern Baptist church and was a preacher’s kid. My dad must be rolling over in his grave at what is happening. Back when he was a pastor, Southern Baptists preached the gospel and fought for social justice.
Wow! Just ... wow. Why am I not surprised that ICE has a Southern Baptist pastor in a leadership role.
I know. It tracks, right?

I'm reminded of the great Mahalia Jackson hymn," I can't go to church, shout all day Sunday
Go out and get drunk and raise sand all day Monday"
I'm gonna live the life I sing about in my song.
