From the San Antonio News:
It's not about personalities and individuals. It's about organizations," [Jim] Richards said. "The SBTC stands ready to dialogue with any group willing to affirm our faith statement."
This is supreme arrogance (if true). It's amazing that we (hopefully anyways) invite people to come to Christ as they are, but we can't invite OTHER CHRISTIANS to come as they are to work together to build the Kingdom.
