  1. I don’t understand why the actions of the Southern Baptists in this case are considered brave. Was there or is there something to fear? Who or what do they have to fear? I would think that all Christian denominations would support what they are doing. Will someone suggest that their action is against the teachings of Christ? Will someone suggest that they are really not Christians at all but merely imposters wanting their own way concerning a particular problem (as they see it) in our society? If so, will they then know how to deal with such an accusation?

    I cannot see anything to fear here, hence, I see no great need for undying courage in this case. What is it that I don’t know?
