This is a fascinating story about the Christian culture warrior penchant to not know exactly what's going on... But somehow be offended by it newyorker.com/magazine/2021/…

For example...

And without missing a beat...

I know that several people who share my faith tradition believe that ignorance is a spiritual attribute...

I come to bear witness... It is not

When in reality the truth is a revelatory device for our own prejudices

For religious leaders who suggested that his election as leader of other Chaplins was the seventh seal... Did y'all double back and apologize???

Or are y'all just gonna keep it pushing????

While persistent superstition is enthralling it's not an actual tenant of faith... Repentance on the other hand .. Is.

There is something else here... And y'all playing with something extremely harmful

What if your presumption was in fact true?

What if a secular humanist was as one outlet suggested "president"?

Does his election impact your faith

Moreover... What does your rancor say about how we treat people who do not share our faith tradition?

Are people who do not share your faith unworthy of care?

Or is care something that only straight, White assimilating, well to do, bible toting, neurotypical, people deserve?

What do we owe our atheist siblings?

You're going to have to find a way to love people who don't believe like you

Y'all probably owe that person an apology... And your congregations a retraction...

Yikes...
