I had a post here on the Paige Patterson situation. I have removed it, not because of what I said, but because I think I need to take my own advice and think more about this situation before commenting at length.
However, I do want to say this much: there is an on-line petition signed by 2400 people directed to the trustees of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary which does not ask for Patterson to be fired, but certainly the implication is there. I want to ask two questions of those who signed the petition:
1. What is the biblical basis for doing such a petition in such a public manner?
2. How many of you have any real connection of any kind to Dr. Patterson beyond what you've consumed via media?
