In reply to the discussion: Christian Bias [View all]Dorian Gray
(13,836 posts)would never start this OP, I do want to jump in right here.
I think that there are plenty of Christians who are doing a lot for equal rights and talking the talk. Look at the Nuns on the Bus, the Episcopal church in the US, Martin Luther King, JR's legacy, etc.
Just in my neighborhood alone, there are a whole bunch of Christian churches that provide gay and lesbian alliances.
It doesn't matter to some people, though.
Having said that, I don't care what "some people" say. I understand that some people don't like Christian theology, and I have no problem with that. I understand that the Catholic Church has reaped it's own bad reputation with its history, and I get why people are (deservedly) angry.
While I would love to see more of an understanding that Christianity is varied and not monolithic in nature, that there are liberals involved in trying to make positive changes, I get why people plug their ears to that, as well.
