Profound--and it cuts through the BS like a hot knife through butter. I'm a progressive, pro-choice, social-justice oriented Christian, but as a whole, I STRONGLY dislike "Christians", "Christian" organizations, and "Christian" activism. They/ It reek(s) of hypocrisy, paternalism, misogyny, privilege, rigidity, racism, a pro-apocalyptic world-view, and a refusal to engage with reality in any kind of way that could truly meet the needs of those they claim to care about. It would break my heart if it didn't leave me so constantly enraged and appalled. Sorry for the rant--and thank you for shining a light on their game plan!
Sending solidarity from the UK. I am an AP. I follow events in the USA with interest and always appreciate reading your erudite thoughts on the subject of adoption. I have felt the Role v Wade decision this week as a punch to the gut, it is sickening. Thank you for your writing.
All of this.
all of it.
Thank you for bearing witness, Tony.
