I see another post by a homophobic christian. She's entitled to her beliefs, isn't she?

It's really not surprising how many Christians are homophobic and anti-BLM. That was a huge thing that made me realize how NOT Jesus-like Christianity is.

It’s no coincidence that the ex-vangelical and Christian deconstruction movement happened at the same time as the movement for Black lives. Christian Supremacy is such a huge source of injustice in the US. One of the most important aspects of my own anti-racism journey started with deconstructing the Christian faith that I was raised in.

This is controversial because Christian supremacist ideology is really pervasive in Black churches too. They don't like the racist parts but they do embrace the homophobia and sexism. And they don't see how it's all related.

When you think beyond White supremacy to see that's it's just one part of the umbrella of Christian supremacy, it's really a game-changer. Christian Supremacy is multiple forms of oppression and Supremacy, all wrapped into one.

The issue is that most of the truly hardcore Christian homophobes don't even know why they are against it. They've been brainwashed their entire lives to despise homosexuals as "sinners", thieves and adulterers are sinners too but the Christians don't hate them, they are willing to "forgive them their sins" but robbery and adultery aren't genetic or biological, they ARE choices. Homosexuality isn't a "choice", it's biological, same as it is for straight people...

Brainwashed. That's exactly what they are. And the fact these neanderthals are creating laws for EVERYONE based on their beliefs?! Unreal.

@Randi1125 Yes, they aren't only brainwashed though, brainwashing can be overcome, these people don't want to change, adapt or see that the world around them is changing!
