Marty Duren, over at SBC Outpost, has written about a proposal before the trustees at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary regarding the transfer of 90 million dollars in endowment funds from the Baptist Foundation in Texas to the Southwestern Seminary Foundation, to be managed by an organization that invests in, among many other things, breweries, tobacco companies and gambling companies. Marty raises the inevitable question of how this can be proposed in light of Resolution #5 at last summer’s Southern Baptist Convention meeting.
I wonder if the voices that castigated those who opposed Resolution #5 will sound the alarm over this proposed action by SWBTS?
