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.

They are entitled to their beliefs but despite what many "freedumb" people say that they have freedom of speech, I'm also equally entitled to express my own opinion. If I disagree with them and say so, that's not disrespecting beliefs, it's just natural discourse. If I think their comments are hateful, I think I'm allowed to say something.

Freedom of speech and freedom to challenge beliefs are equal as far as I'm concerned.

Absolutely! I tend to answer in the same tone they use with me. I wish I had more self-control. No, I don't.

@Randi1125 I am the same way, I have self control to an extent but if they keep being nasty, I can be nasty too. That's why I just call them the "freedumb" people, they just want the freedom to be stupid rather than freedom of speech. They want to say anything they want and not get hit for being a moron 😆

Ha! I can so relate. And for me, misogynist women are the worst! I wish I could just keep my mouth shut but I can't.
