    Are there any actual liberals here?

    I didn't think I had to clarify what a liberal is. It's not an obscure or ambiguous concept. A liberal is a liberal.

    One fact check showed everything you just said to be wrong.

    Mainline Protestant churches are dying

    The RCC is hemorrhaging members as well, in addition to evangelical Christianity in general (except maybe Pentecostals, i think). It has nothing to do with the theological or political liberalism of Mainline churches. The west is simply secularizing. It has been for decades. Eventually there...

    Are there any actual liberals here?

    Is there actually anyone here who is liberal theologically and/or politically, or is this forum just conservatives arguing against liberalism?

    Woke Churches?

    There is no racism against white people in the US. Racism is systemic. It's a power differential. It's more than individual prejudices. The riots happened because people of color were outright murdered by their government. Without cause. But yes, more than 90% of the demonstrations were...

    I have a massively destructive behavior pattern that I need help with. I don't know what to do.

    I'm positive it's oppositional defiant disorder. I've always had it. Kids are supposed to grow out of it. It's gotten worse as an adult if anything. I view the world around me, society in general, as an oppressive fascist master. Even my peers and loved ones. It all has to be opposed and destroyed.

    Woke Churches?

    You can't take a stand against social equality in one breath and call others racist in another. Yes, many children keep their sexual orientation and gender identity hidden from their parents for their own safety and well-being. As some of them should.

    Woke Churches?

    Are you openly saying you're against social justice, diversity, equity, and inclusion? Are you sure that's the hill you want to die on?

    Shouldn't all Evangelicals want Christian Nationalism?

    I absolutely oppose Christianity being spread by means of right wing authoritarianism. I shouldn't have to explain why.

    Thank you all for your kindness. I was expecting a heavy rebuke on this one.

    I'm a believer. Baptized. Usually attend services. Daily prayers. Bible reading. All of that stops when this behavior is switched on

    I have a massively destructive behavior pattern that I need help with. I don't know what to do.

    Please, I really don't need judgments or condemnations. I know what I'm doing is wrong and I'm giving myself plenty of it. I need help. I have this behavior pattern I've done my entire life but has recently been accelerating. I like to push people to their breaking point via verbal abuse...
