Former SBC President Ed Young: Democrat Party is 'Some Kind of Religion ... Basically Godless'
Ed Young, the senior pastor of Houston's Second Baptist Church and a former president of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), said the
Democrat Party is some kind of "godless" religion and, because of the sin of abortion, "God will not bless America."
Young, host of The Winning Walk, made his remarks during an impromptu speech following the electoral defeat of Rep. John Culberson (R-Texas) on Nov. 6.
In his remarks, picked up by KHOU 11 News, Pastor Young said the Democrat Party is "no longer a party -- it's some kind of religion that is basically godless."
He also condemned abortion and criticized the courts for leglaizing the killing of children by abortion.
"[a]s long as America -- and this is represented by every Democrat I know -- does not believe in the sacredness of the life in the mother's womb, God will not bless America or make us a great nation."
Pastor Young is a strong defender of the natural law and Christian morality.
As reported in One News Now, for instance, Young was involved in a 2015 effort to overturn an ordinance in Houston that allowed transgender women -- males pretending to be females -- to use bathrooms used by biological females.
At the time, Young said,
"The bottom line is, if we open up our facilities when someone can choose their sexual orientation -- those who believe that men should use men's facilities, and women should use women's facilities – we will be discriminated against."
"It is totally deceptive, and it is deadly," he said, "and I trust that you will vote no, no, no, because it will carry our city further and further and further down the road of being totally, in my opinion, secular and godless."
The transgender bathroom ordinance was overturned by city voters.
