Comment on community for lgbtq+ christians or those learning about christianity

So… Christians

Never personally meet one that did. I’m sure there are, but the only time somebody rejected evolution on the grounds of religion was a Muslim, and a zealot.
I’m not judging all Muslims because of him, neither all Christians because the worse of them.

I think there’s a level of literalism that people talk about. The claims made about homosexuality come off as very literal as they’re letters to a congregation. The creation narrative was likely oral tradition written down after many generations, so you can attribute symbolism to it.

You see how easy is to chose what parts you want you follow literally and which ones you don’t?
Now let them have a less toxic religion.
