(The Roys Report) The pastor of one of the country’s largest Southern Baptist churches on Sunday hailed disgraced former Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary President Paige Patterson as “the Winston Churchill of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC).”
The praise came just two days after Southwestern accused Patterson in the 2021 Southern Baptist Convention Book of Reports of stealing confidential information and valuable artwork from the seminary. The seminary also claims that Patterson diverted millions in donations to the Patterson’s nonprofit after his termination.
Patterson was also fired by Southwestern in 2018 for allegedly pressuring a rape victim not to report her crime and for his misogynist statements, including urging a woman to return to her abusive husband.
