Aug 25, 2022: Spiritually Cracking Up: Christian Punchlines
The Christian right isn’t the only one spitting out accidental comedic fire. Let’s see what our progressive Christians are saying:
“I would rather get an abortion than have a Brown child who ends up being adopted by white evangelicals.
It is not a kindness to children of the global majority to give them to people who’ll traumatize them with self-ancestral hatred.
An abortion is an act of love.”, Jo Luehmann
Doesn’t this make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside? According to this social media post, all white evangelicals are on a global hating spree on all non-white evangelicals. Come on! Is this 100% accurate? I don’t think so. I have relatives that are white evangelicals with a “brown” child, and they love him more than anything. This isn’t to say there is issues our white evangelicals have to come to grips with when it comes to Trump worship and racism.

It is a sad sight to see Peter Lumpkins in full attack mode on social media after Braxton Caner's funeral. Peter and others have been on social media since the funeral attempting to blame Braxton's death on critics of Braxton's dad, Ergun Caner.

It really kind of flamed up in 2016...In fact, First has become what we call a lighthouse congregation. ...That’s a new initiative in the conference and several other ones just trying to signal to the community that we’re not considering leaving the denomination and we want to deliberately provide as safe and welcoming space, especially for folks whose churches are closing, or if you were disaffiliated that wanted to remain United Methodist.” --Reverend Stacey Lundy on the UMC General Conference decision that all individuals, including homosexuals, are of sacred worth to God and should have protected rights
