There are a lot of topics which are taboo in the Baptist church. Some less today. But despite the claims, traditions exist in church that need to be killed.
Drinking, dancing, wearing shorts, poker, and gambling. Oujia boards, D&D, playing FPS Video games with excessive language and watching Monty Python's Life of Bryan.
Some things are more taboo than others. Some things I would probably never do because I've been catechized in old baptist traditions. Some I wouldn't do because I'm uninterested. Some on the list are more condemned than others. But honestly none are outright sins to do.
Imo, the worst offenses happen every Sunday when Scripture is taken out of context to suit a way to have a better marriage and speaking on a subject like this as if God has proclaimed this truth of marriage to be gospel. That's worst than playing with a Ouija board. That's taken the Lords name in vain.
Where Scripture does not specifically deal with an issue, I believe the church must be careful how it draws lines. That's my thoughts. Agree? Disagree?
