Oh, man. There was SO much I could have said that they wouldn’t have liked. There many falshoods in the video and stuff said during the discussion. I could have started by saying pointing out evolution itself as an example of intelligent design when the pastor asked everyone to point out the glory oof God in nature. But I didn’t argue. Why? Becuase I know very well that they just wouldn’t understand. And it would not help matters at all.

The basic problem with the Truth Project (which I didn’t mention), in common wiht a lot of other things in today’s church, is that it purports to be Christ-centered, but it’s actually culture-centric. The whole thing is about saving Christian culture form the tide of encroaching secularism, as I believe I’ve said before. Otherwise, Creationism would not exist. There is virtually nothing in these meetin is about the actual teachings of Christ. Where, for example, in the New Testement, does Jesus talk about gender, roles, sexuality, or the evils of evolution? Granted, these things didn’t threaten religious culture back then–Christ himself did. Which i why the Pharisees betrayed Him. For threatening their worldview.

Culture War Christianity is basically Darwinian-yep you heard that right. It is concerned with the culture’s survival. Much of what I’ve read in publications distributed by my own church back this up.
