[QUOTE="diesel96, post: 278791, member: 9859"] ­­More than 50 evangelical leaders have signed a paper affirming a statement on the family adopted by the Southern Baptist Convention in June…98' The husband should “love his wife as Christ loved the church,” it says. “He has the God-given responsibility to provide for, to protect and to lead his family.” The SBC statement also addresses the wife, who is “to submit herself graciously to the servant leadership of her husband, even as the church willingly submits to the headship of Christ.”… Among those signing the paper, which reads, “I affirm the statement on the family issued by the 1998 Southern Baptist Convention,” were: Prison Fellowship founder Chuck Colson. Promise Keepers founder Bill McCartney. National Religious Broadcasters President Brandt Gustavson. Gov. Mike Huckabee of Arkansas. What...:surprised: (doubletake) Huckabee ? Gender discretion ? Archaic ? Ok, It's not perfect, and certainly not like the injustices occuring in the middle east and in Asia, but don't act like discrepencies don't occur here with some evangelicals and some hardline Christian followers. I trust, the above statement is a fairly orthodox statement of the Christian view of marriage. And is Huck going to be able to plead that after having put his name to a statement explicitly affirming this particular bit of doctrine? Huck’s signing up here specifically for wives as subordinates. Is this sort of thing going to come up if he’s the nominee and some voters [I]are[/I] going to wonder about it if he can’t explain it to their satisfaction. He’s reaping plenty of benefits from his religious stature; these are going to be the costs. Which may explain why he’s reluctant to publish his old sermons. [/QUOTE]
