Only my wife calls me prince, the name is Greg, and this is not a fedora on my head.
BTW, isn't menudo made when you ad hominem?

When I was a Southern Baptist, I was surprised at all the areas of agreement SBC and RCC appeared to have:
Large Church which is structure where Truth is now only what filters down from the top.
The quickness to label someone a heretic and banish them from the church.
The readiness to appeal to its governmental structure as proof of it being the truth Church.
Most in the SBC are not "Calvinist" anymore.

I've been SBC since 1986. We average between 1200 & 1300 in Bible study each week. We still believe in the priesthood of the believer, not a Sr. Pastor with access to the Father more special than any other believer. And ours is a democratic polity. Our deacons are servants of the church, not dictators.
It's far better than the Free Will Baptist churches where I spent my first 34 years.
Here's a site of SBC Calvinists that might interest you:

I got tired of debating theology a long time ago. I just try to emphasize where we do agree. I live in Dallas, heart of dispensationism and I am amill. I believe the events of 70 AD are what Jesus is referring to in the first part of his discussion in Matthew. The second coming is not something that follows a "great tribulation" though I do believe good and evil will fight each other until the Second Coming. I get all sorts of funny looks when I express my view, so I tend to change the subject.

I agree, There are very few in the SBC church I belong to.

Talk about the last minute. The funeral home was finally able to get the life insurance straightened out late yesterday and so we are having the memorial services this evening near Dallas, TX and then the burial in Baton Rouge tomorrow. My dad has a burial plot in Baton Rouge that has been his since sometime around 1948. He will be buried next to his mother, and my mom's ashes will be in the gasket with him. Look forward to the Second Coming even more now when we will be able to see dad, mom and my wife Christy again.

Man the eschatology folder is so full of pure speculation like always. What will the millenium be like? We don't know. Is May 21 2011 the date of the Rapture? we don't know. Why do people refuse to live in the tension of waiting on the Lord's return and not knowing when it will be? It could even be hundreds of years in the future. WE DON'T KNOW!!!!
