Wasn't the SBC moving in a (relatively) more sociopolitically moderate or agnostic direction as recently as two or three years ago?
I think there was quite a big internal struggle. Relative moderates like Russell Moore were certainly winning some victories, but they did face blowback. I haven’t been following any of this recently, so I’m not sure what the outcome of all that was.
Both sides in that dispute firmly agreed that homosexuality was a sin, however. There never really was significant internal division among Southern Baptist leadership about these issues.
