Stop Baptist Predators offers a powerful account from a reader about sexual abuse suffered by a 16 year-old boy during a Southern Baptist Convention in the 1970s. As much as we pick on Catholics, we would do well to remember that the Southern Baptists are no strangers to abusing children either. And in some ways, they seem to be even less willing to help victims than the Catholic church.
I am encouraged to see that this issue is receiving more attention in the atheist blogosphere. By helping to call attention to abuse by Southern Baptist clergy, we are making sure people are informed.
