Contrary to the impression that some received about the proposal to the Southern Baptist Convention for parents to remove their children from public school, the measure was defeated, unanimously, in the resolutions committe. I have spoken to people who were there, and my impression is that the proposal was viewed as ridiculous by the vast majority of the attendees.
I know that at the time the news reports about this were not clear, and many were confused about the status of the proposal. I bring it up now because I recently spotted it in an otherwise interesting article by one Tom Sine about American evangelicalism and politics. (There is also a pdf available straight from the source.)
