Many of these churches are a lot like the political parties. They make their statements but that doesn't mean you have to agree or follow all their pronouncements in order to be a member.
That said, Southern Baptists are run by a generally conservative group of older white men. Jimmy Carter was an active member all his life, but joined another Baptist group some years ago over the equality issue.

And as for some of the remarks in here about Catholics, surely many of us know Catholic women who practice birth control and are otherwise quite Liberal. I certainly do.
