SBC exodus underway over rejection of CRT Wednesday, April 14, 2021 | Michael F. Haverluck (OneNewsNow.com) Spanish A notable exodus from the Southern Baptist Convention has been underway since 2020, when America's largest Protestant denomination reaffirmed its "Baptist Faith and Message 2000" (BFM) and rejected Critical Race Theory – resulting in many African-American pastors and prominent women leaders leaving the denomination. On November 30, 2020 – the 20th anniversary of the SBC's adoption of the BFM – the denomination unified behind a statement confirming allegiance to principles central to its Christian beliefs, which emphasized that it does not support or condone racism of any type … against blacks or whites.
