Welcome to the conversations that matter

podcast my name is John Harris well I thought yesterday we were done with

Ed Lyton plagiarism they're calling it sermon gate some people at least that

whole issue I thought I've spent almost an

hour talking about it we can move on but as I thought about it last night and as the

story developed even further in this morning I thought you know this actually has some

legs to it this can go places that even the

critical race theory issue can't go or people are willing to bring it places they

weren't willing to bring that issue and so I want to talk about that. There's a real

political opportunity here for conservatives and it's kind of the last glimmer of hope I think

for those in the Southern Baptist Convention who are conservative because this could really actually end up with

Ed Lytton resigning. Now will he resign? I don't really think so and I think the

reason the main reason is the elites and the Convention will not let that happen.

But it's this is one of those situations

where you cannot be called a racist or it's very hard to call someone a racist

when they're making their issue edelitants plagiarism namely because the person who would take Edelitin's place if he were to resign

is a person of color and a very conservative person of color. So this is actually a very interesting

situation and I want to take a different angle on it and show you some new developments because this this is actually if you want to talk about something being systemic this may be systemic be. I don't know yet, but it seems like

there's a lot of plagiarism going on. It wasn't just that one sermon. There's a lot

more examples. And now that people are starting to look into his sermons and podcasts he's done and even

one person asking for his dissertation which I don't think is publicly

available which it probably should be there's now all sorts of questions
