Letters To The Editor Writer's Name Corrected A letter to the editor, entitled "NCSSM Admission Process Is Thorough" and published July 3, was written by Jennifer Harrod, who was erroneously identified as Jennifer Howard. leaders are among them. It is an error to say that conservative Southern Baptists hold to a "verbatim dictation" view of scriptural inspiration or that we believe our moderate friends are "anathema." There is no "purge" of our seminaries being sought; only a place and a respect for the conservative position concerning the authority and integrity of the Bible. Tolerance was not "trashed" in Dallas; it was responsibly demonstrated. And the p\:esident's ruling out of order an attempt to alter the convention's autonomy in independently appointing its Committee on Boards rather than turning it over to Baptist State Convention officials was a necessary, constitutional ruling. And again, Dr. Stanley is neither a "bishop" nor a "Moral Majoritar~an." He is, howeverhobvious1y "born again." What's wrong wit that. How about telling the Durham community about the $12 million given to world hunger by Southern Baptists over the last 18 months, about the vast ministries to minorities throughout our country, about the 3,000missionaries carrying on a $loo-million missionary enterprise in a hundred nations on Earth, and about the influence of 14 million Southern Baptist people in 36,000churches across this land of America? Say sometnmg good about this constituency of Baptists who live in your city, subscribe to your paper and buy your ads. JULIAN M. MOTLEY The writer is pastor of Gorman Baptist Church in Durham. ott
