I’m pretty chill and down to earth, feel like there’s a lot of hate towards us.

    I think everyone is different honestly. I don’t think just because someone is a conservative (like myself) that they incorporate the ‘old school’ Christian beliefs. Such as being against gays.

    It’s 2023 and ppl are understanding how times have changed.

    I myself, and several others, don’t care if gays get married or have children and so forth. We’re not against that.

    I also don’t think gay ppl are bad, they are normal ppl. And if you think about it, Jesus wants you to love everyone and not have a heart full of hate.

      But if you’re voting republican, you are voting for people who do believe in those things. They are also working to punish them every chance they get.

        I think there are some old schoolers in the Republican Party yes, but I don’t think all Republicans stand for that. Just as I am different. Yea im Christian but I don’t go to church every Sunday.

          Doesn’t matter what you stand for, if you vote for the antichrist.

          You just seem to want to jerk yourself off that you “aren’t like other Xtians” more than you want to admit why you support the worst people.

      As a self-identifying conservative Christian you must be aware that almost all antagonism towards LGBTQ+ people comes from your churches, your leaders, and your peers.

      And not just gay people. Trans people are even more in the “culture war” crosshairs, and are just as important a part of the queer community.

      Do you disagree with your church and your leaders about this? If so, how can you continue to self-identify as a conservative Christian, knowing what your identification supports?
