Quotable – Al Mohler
Posted by Quotable in Uncategorized
“We have an institutional policy that we do not change names on diplomas. That’s just the bottom line. If you’re married, if you change your name, if you move to another planet–it doesn’t matter. We’re not going to change the name on a diploma. That long predated anyone asking for it for this reason.”
Dr. R. Albert Mohler, President of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, quoted through the Religion News Service at ethicsdaily.com, defending the seminary’s refusal to grant a full name change on the diploma of Ronnie “Elise” Elrod. He/she is a former Southern Baptist pastor, known previously as Ronnie Eugene Elrod, and a 1998 graduate of Southern who underwent surgical alteration to become a woman.



i guess dr. mohler is still narrowing those parameters…aint he?
or, maybe there’s a groups of sbc’ers out there who think that we ought to pat poor ronnie/elise on the back, and let him teach preaching, or nt theology at one of our sb seminaries.
