It’s a bit hard to grasp but most practice ‘ social’ Christianity. Church is a social space to hang out, sing, read the Bible and be with people they like and are like them. Cookout and camping Christians. The people discriminated against as ‘sinners’ are just people they make them uncomfortable and they don’t want around.
So the poor, homeless ,trans, gay are vilified because they. Really really don’t want them to show up in their church. It would make them uncomfortable.
On the same side there is 0% backlash against the guy who drinks to excess specifically looking to hook up with as many hot women as possible on Friday or Saturday nights. As long as he is from the in group it’s fine to them and will be forgiven.
There is 0 remorse, thought or strain over this. You’re judging them by rules they don’t consider important.
Exactly. The alcoholic cheater who sometimes hits his wife is a fun guy to them, a good Christian who’s trying his best. But a trans woman who spends Friday night driving around to pick up food for food not bombs needs to repent and live as Jesus said.
I’m not pretending Christianity is amazing, I’m an apostate for a reason, but I’ll say this: I’m still a better Christian than a large portion of Christians I know despite the apostacy and the paganism.
