as gay dude i've largely always been grateful to grow up in a nation with Christian roots. and im grateful we got the rights everybody else has. and it does suck people are trying to take right away rights or gain more rights than everybody else in our name, I'm sure Christians cant relate to that at all ;) churches arnt actually required to marry us so i guess i just dont really get the focus on my sin, jesus died for all of our sins, meaning we all sin. not saying just go out and sin, but its between us and him. for all you know my one sin is being gay, for all i know people who focus on that could be sinning up a storm. if you see gay people a certain way you should see everybody that way, even yourself, and you should know you're no better than me or anybody else. and even if you are, you're not the one who will judge that. ------- there are many people who've given their take about how we've gotten here, and while frued, his cousin eddie bernays, and kinsey are important figures in this puzzle, i've found this to be the most concise explanation: doctrines called critical theories were formulated under the authority of disaffected socialists at "the Frankfurt school of critical theory" by positively observing the most authoritarian regimes in history for revolutionary tactics. these doctrines were created to target minorities and youth identities, such as ideas around their race, gender and sxxuality, to destabilize people so they're easier to isolate and control. (radicalize) ---- i've never been prideful of my sexuality and ive always been adverse to the movement, especially the parades. if it comes to it, i just tell these people i don't participate in their doctrine and i will call them anything i please, but usually it doesnt have to come to that. most of the time you just do you, take the rainbow flag off your name tag or w/e his wife's example was, most of the time nothing will happen. its how a lot of smart people kept their jobs during the pandemic without getting the shot. --- why focus on the demons that surround you when you're so sure of his light? to me this is a time Christians need to focus inward to become representatives of him in all his glory, that is what will bring more people to him. in fact i'm compelled to tell you should take better care of your psychical needs and well being. you honor god with your body, as it is a gift from him, it should be respected and cared for. stay humble kings. im praying for you ;)

if you see gay people a certain way you should see everybody that way, even yourself, and you should know you're no better than me or anybody else. and even if you are, you're not the one who will judge that.

great thoughts. thanks for sharing @YeIsCorrect
I like what you said at the end about pride world view being a separate religion. never thought of it that way. That would make sense.
