If one uses the argument from at least one of the Blues Brothers, then David Lowrie is unqualified to be elected president of the BGCT. He has recently attended a Texas Baptist Committed convocation. He (say it silently) attended a TBC meeting. That “evil” organization the Blues Brothers lament and cry about endlessly as being the “machine” that runs the BGCT.
According to David Currie, he attended the TBC convocation to see just what that group was all about. For that he gains my admiration. Seems over the years the TBC has been painted with broad brushes by the Blues Brothers as the worst organization in Texas and any affiliation with it disqualified you from having any worthy conversation with Montoya and Davis. I know Montoya used to be very involved with TBC. I am not sure about Davis.
So my question to them is, does this attendance at this meeting disqualify David Lowrie from being president of the BGCT? Is he now “in” with them and thus will push thier evil agenda? Did he really go to seek their approval? Hmmm, makes ya wonder.
I personally have no problem with David Lowrie. As a matter of fact, I consider him more qualified becuase he did attend. That tells me he is not closeminded and narrow in his associations with people from all walks of life. He is willing to learn about TBC from the ground up and what they are really about. I think he will learn that TBC is made up of good people, who just want the BGCT to stay away from rank and file fundamentalism. They are not out to destroy or control the BGCT. They care for and love the BGCT and desire it to be the best.
For the record I support the TBC. I have attended meetings with them and no I have not been selected or appointed to any key committees. I find that they are my kind of people. I have seen first hand the dangers and harm caused by fundamentatlist. There is still the looming danger of fundamentlist creeping around Texas. They are still a threat to our beloved convention. And TBC has and will keep us all informed as to those dangers and threats.
Honestly, it is a toss up as to who I will vote for BGCT President. David Lowrie has more of my respect for attending the TBC convocation. That tells me he wants to be informed and educated on the issues at hand. So good going David!
