Oh good, some more Lady Pigeon Chess. Let’s have it.
“Yes, I am a Christian. I believe in the Bible.
“Or at least in the parts that I think validate all of the prejudices I already have.”
I do not support homosexuality or “homosexual marriage”.
“Because Leviticus says it’s icky." (Goes to eat shrimp while wearing a polyester shirt.)
Yes, I still love you. Yes, we are still friends.
“As long as you live your life exactly how I want you to.”
No, I am not judging you.
“Well, okay, I totally am.”
No, I am not condemning you to hell.
“As long as you live your life exactly how I want you to.”
No, I will not let anyone bully you.
“As long as you live your life exactly how I want you to.”
But realize that name-calling and stereotyping those of us who stand for what we believe is exactly what you don’t want done to you.
“So quit being queer Muslin terrorists and alt-left Antifa thugs, you hateful freaks.”
We have a right to speak what we believe, same as you have a right to speak what you believe.”
“As long as your beliefs exactly match mine.”
