It's so stupid. A local church which was kind of a hip young church recently announced they were not LGBT affirming and were really nasty about it,, and like two thirds of their congregation left as a result. Even modern Christians don't approve of this anymore.
Ehhh, that greatly depends on the church. There are still a lot of churches out there that are totally on board with hating anyone who isn't perfectly straight. You know, that kind of hate that Jesus preached about all the time! People wouldn't have as many issues with Christians if they actually followed Jesus's teachings, but here we are.
Well some of them definitely aren't. My friend I mentioned and I go to a very affirming church and he is beloved as well as our other gay and trans congregation. Nobody would dream of being anything else.
