A commenter in a previous post where I take issue with some Mohler attitude, objects that

SBTS is owned by the SBC, which has the right to require that the programs and professors of SBC institutions actually affirm the mission statements and abstracts of principles of the seminaries themselves. That was the issue at that time.

Oh yeah, they have the RIGHT. They can do whatver they want. But people who wish to have a true education must look elsewhere. People who want to pursue Faith-based Social work must look elesewhere for social work programs that have the right to question the ethics of government, or to suggest alternative Biblical viewpoints and interpretations. That, obviously, is no longer possible at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, and that is SAD. I feel for the generations of trainees there (of course, the fact that they are even going there is probably indicative of the fact that they have swallowed the whole present Southern Baptist climate, and think that this dogmatic, narrow , often “Anti-Christ” supporting theology is just what the doctor ordered.

We had many of those students there as well when I was there, but there was a place for left as well as right, and there was a sense even from the “Right” that those on the “left”, like those involved in “social work” as a faith-based ministry, where responding to the call of God to reach out to those in need. That idea rarely exists today. Al Mohler casts suspicion on naybody who dares to difffer with his “biblical worldview”, which seems to me to be limited to “his own little world”.
