The PCA's Newest "Anti-racist" Resolution is a Deadly Joke

The Presbyterian Church in America is about to make a huge mistake.

That sounds dramatic, sure. But then again, so is what they’re about to do. The PCA has issued a resolution so broad, so poorly conceived, and so marinated in the language of woke posturing that if passed—and all signs point to it being welcomed with clasped hands and misty-eyed moral satisfaction—it will officially become a theological disaster wearing a virtue-signaling mask. This isn’t biblical clarity. It’s DEI catechism in a clerical collar.

At first glance, it may look innocent enough… a declaration against racial superiority. Nobody’s arguing in favor of that. As far as I know, nobody in the PCA is standing up shouting racial slurs from the pulpit or giving Nazi salutes during the benediction. So what’s the point of this resolution?

Why now? Why this?

The proposed text of the overture is promoted in an article titled “A Tale of Two Crosses: Race or Grace at the 52nd General Assembly,” proudly penned “this Juneteenth in the year of our Lord 2025.” Go ahead. Read it. Marvel at how a church can recast basic statistical observation as wicked ethnic superiority.

Here’s the exact wording, so you don’t think I’m exaggerating:

"The 52nd General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in America does hereby join with the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church (221st General Synod) and with the Reformed Presbyterian Church in North America (193rd Synod) in condemning without distinction any theological or political teaching which posits a superiority of race or ethnic identity born of immutable human characteristics, and does call to repentance any who would promote or associate themselves with such teaching, either by commission or omission."

Let’s break this down, because the resolution itself refuses to.
