As I've mentioned before, I have determined that due to the apparent liberalism of the ABC, I probably will not consider an ABC seminary. I just finished reading the Policy Statements and Resolutions section of their website www.abc-usa.org and I am heart broken over their policy to continue dialogues within the denomination regarding 'human sexuality' which includes homosexuality. What dialogue is necessary? What I don't understand is that under the homosexuality section the policy states that homosexuality is "incompatible with Christian teaching." <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/scratchchin.gif" alt="" /> Also, and I've known this for a while, there seems to be no problem with ordaining women as Pastors.

So here's my question: Would it be unwise and presumptuous to assume that one could attend a biblically sound seminary and then go back to serve in an American Baptist Church, or is the goal to change one church in the denomination futile?
