Every once and a while, a woke liberal pastor says something so honest that it’s hilarious. Anthony Bradley is a research fellow at the Acton Institute and an academic. He recently put out a clarian call for a church with a multitude of interracial couples, especially in leadership, but he had one stipulation that got everyone’s attention.
Bradley’s insistence that White/Asian couples do not count towards his interracial couple quota is absolutely hilarious, because it is among the most prevalent combinations. As dating data would suggests that White males and Asian women have the highest interracial preference for each other whereas Black women and White men have the lowest preference for one another, despite Hollywood casting. Speaking of:
“It is a church, not a Tide commercial” is a perfect rebuke of people trying to impose racial quotas on the local body of Christ.

Any church that promotes this crap should be mocked and avoided. Becoming Brazil isn’t something to strive for nor the Tower of Babel.
When I was on Twitter years ago, the only person who ever blocked me was Anthony Bradley.
Bradley blocked me because he was bragging about being in the PCA but that he was not a “fundamentalist.” I noted that the men who founded the PCA (D. James Kennedy, Frank Barker et al.) were fundamentalists. By any telling of theology in the 20th Century, that would be a true statement.
Bradley immediately blocked me without comment.
I concluded after following Bradley for a while on Twitter and then having this exchange, that Bradley was very thin-skinned and not really strong intellectually.
Your article reinforces that judgment made years ago.
I assume that, say, German and Spanish wouldn’t count, I mean actual Spain Spanish. He probably means Aztec, or at least Mestizo with Indian traditions. Latin Americans of European descent wouldn’t count, marriages between English-origin Americans and those people aren’t really interracial, and few of any people have ever had strong moral objections to them.
