Just as no self respecting gay couple is going to knowingly invite Rick Santorum to their wedding, neither are they going to ask a hardshell Baptist preacher who "loves them but hates their sin" (yeah sure) to do the honors.  I also doubt that very many self respecting women have any great desire to be a preacher in today's Southern Baptist church.  My late father in law was a proud Baptist for most of his life but became disgusted with the SBC in his later years after the fundamentalist faction "hijacked" his church!  He and his wife eventually left their church of 40 years to join a "Moderate" Baptist Congregation that eventually severed its ties to the SBC.
