There are scripting extensions to SQL that definitely are. There are some features in some SQL servers that make it Turing Complete even without scripting stuff.

Like HTML5+CSS3 being Turning Complete, it's easy to add features that accidentally make you hit the threshold. Many would argue that it's a sign complexity has run away from you, and I tend to agree.
