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.

It should not be shocking to realize EVERY aspect of our society - that promotes hatred and division - is led by a patriarchal infrasture of white men afraid of change. Until we collectively agree to pick up a rock and smash the glass ceiling we are destined to wither on about it. White men have the money and power but they are in a postion of authority becasue we put them there ... and we can replace them with individuals that represent all of us.
@whippersnapper and the old white men are losing on every front and it shows in the hate they have for anyone who disagrees with them.

@markansas And just like that a man responds to my post and my faith in humanity is somewhat restored.
@whippersnapper hey i am a old white man . and please look at my profile and post and whitepages.. humm white pages is that racist wonder if i can change that color to grey. being all things are a shade of grey.
@markansas When I was a teenager I thought everything was black and white. I was quite unhappily militant and rigid in my beliefs. As I have aged I see the world completely grey and I am happier to embrace everyone ... not just people who look like me.

I have no idea if you meant to be funny in your posts but you have put a smile on my face. It's nice to interject levity in these trying times.
@whippersnapper the smile is what i wanted. and yes even i have changed in time for the better i think. and sometime if you dont laugh you cry. if you look at my friends and what they post you will see others that believe as i do or i should say as we do. i read your profile before i followed you . if i did not like what i saw i would have walked away and not replied. yet here we are finding common ground. so welcome home. yours mark
