Russell Moore is smug and insulting, but now we know he is vindictive too. He has marginalized and ostracized evangelical scholars who don’t agree with his leftist policies. He uses his links to evangelical mega-groups like The Gospel Coalition (slouching leftward) and even Catholic groups to punish conservatives. Even more troubling is that he abandons Southern Baptist brothers to attack from secularists. If not to defend Southern Baptists rights, then what is the purpose of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention?
While Russell Moore was breaking bread with the Human Rights Campaign in 2014, the organization was trying to destroy Southern Baptist Robert Oscar Lopez, a professor at Cal State-Northridge.
