I suppose this Second Baptist Church believes that Jesus always was and is, based on some identifiable, but ancient, verse in the Bible.

Still, if the deity, by any name, creates all humans, then Steve must be a creation of that deity as well. I'm sure the pastor of that church would tell you that everyone is God's creation. Simple logic dictates that.

As I said: Stupid.
