Thoughts on the Nashville Statement?

Not that it affects me personally, but it's a bunch of trash.

I hope there is a timeline where we successfully managed to gas all Christians.

"Hey let's just ditch basic decency and modern ideals about treating women as self-actualizing people and then DOUBLE down on smearing the LGBT community. Christian^2 amirite? Now EVERYONE loses in our game of Sharia Christianity!"

Also
> Anyone who persistently rejects God’s revelation about sexual holiness and virtue is rejecting Christianity altogether, even if they claim otherwise

Reeks of self-aggrandizing hypocrisy and impossibly overinterpreted standards of piety. I get the idea of respecting "traditional" Christian standards if one chooses, but they don't get to redefine the whole thing or restrict it any more than the flawed ideologues who came before them and anyone who will come afterward.

Just another reason young people are leaving churches faster than ever before. Many believers still miss the forest for the trees and screech about "You can't just live any old way and cry about it when you're told how to live pure" while they feed their crepey, embittered, geriatric flock their own brand of candy-coated hogwash belying everything we know about being human. If it doesn't look like their own temptations, it must be sin! Otherwise carry on, right? They throw out time-honored interpretations of the Bible that people haven't honored since enlightenment or even the Old Testament yet wax political about how disagreeing with them on observed, immutable sexuality is tantamount to heresy–like there can't possibly be a more important core ideology behind the faith.

Nope. Sorry. There are plenty of Christians who agree to disagree with you. They aren't going anywhere. Respect is a two-way street. CBMW can keep wedge-issue baiting and ignore the best tenets of hospitable faith through Christlike actions if they want. Feel free to cherry pick your convenient 19th century biblical narrative if it makes you feel higher on God's pecking order. Just don't forget we live in a pluralistic society.

Otherwise, I'm not worried about this subterfuge.

Throw Mudslimes and Jews on the pile as well please. The big three desert religions are poisonous.

I found this interesting:

Huh, interesting way to deliberately offend a city. What can be done with this information?

I don't know that the conference was a purposeful attempt to offend Nashville. I think it means that the Nashville Statement group was appealing to a southern cultural consensus that's beginning to break down.

Sure, the idea was happened upon by chance, but that hardly prevents it from being weaponized.

How much red have you visited I live in a very red place, never had issues.

>>8807139
Yeah, worth noting that living in a red area doesn't guarantee trouble.

The worst that has ever happened to me was being called a fag by a bunch of high schoolers driving by in a shitty car. They would likely have no idea I was gay so they are just being faggots.
