A plan to sneak actual Wine instead of Grape Juice into the communion cups at a number of key Southern Baptist Churches was thwarted earlier today...
Purgatorio reports the plot was uncovered by a special SBC anti-alcohol unit known as the RES #5 Squad. Apparently, after loosening him up with a few cocktails, the Squad got a confession from a disgruntled former Founders Ministry member. He informed them of a secret coalition of young Calvinistic Baptist bloggers intent on forcing members of the denomination to drink.
A former president of the denomination, who wishes to remain anonymous, reflected “Had they succeeded, and had Baptists actually consumed real wine, the results would have been catastrophic and blown the SBC to bits”.
If convicted, the conspirators could be forced to go to Jack Chick evangelism training and give up their Derek Webb CD’s.

Hee hee… I love the Chick comment the best. Those tracts are THE BEST! And now they’re on-line, digital, new, and improved! Thanks, Todd, this oughtta undo some of the last few days’ damage here at MMI…
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh THAT explains a LOT!
Thanks for providing some laughter on a topic that is really quite sad!
Ummmm, I don’t get why this is humorous. The SBC takes VERY SERIOUSLY its own abstaination, and ANY threat to the practice and doctrine of the SBC in regards to said practice will be dealt with in the MOST SEVERE of manners, uh.... verily!
Why just this morning I was talking to “Upper G. I. Barber” who as you know is a distinquished veteran of service to these fine UNITED STATES of AMERICA and also a world reknown authority on the doctrine of ab"stain"ation.... and he said “Verily, this is a great day in the war on secularism’s inflitration of the elect!”
I say, let them boys be made an ex-zample to other infidels who partake in shenanigans and hooliganisms!!
Com-m-muni-mum was extra h-h-happy at my ch-church this week. Hiccup…
I saw where you were a Derek Webb fan. We just finished wrapping up an interview on our podcast with him. Thought you might enjoy it.
