not teaching that LGBT is OK, is failing to help LGBT people against bigotry whether it’s from Christians or not. The fact you even mention cohabiting people is astonishing, as if there was any reason whatsoever to be against it!?

This is a doctrine of Christianity. The Churches that do what you wish are essentially vaguely spiritualist humanists, populated by old people who still think “christian” is a synonym for “good”

It is not the bronze age anymore.

This is where humanism fails. Morality changes, as per the culture and time. In some ways, they can even just be flat out colonialist with trying to force their culture on others. There are examples of times when things which were morally horrific were accepted by the culture. People twisted scripture back then as those “progressivists” are doing now. The fruit comes from the same tree.

The difference is, Christians have a justification about wishing to “save” people whether you agree with it or not.

Humanism is based on ethics that evolve with increased knowledge from scientific evidence. For instance the bible teaches us that animals have no soul, and for that reason Christians can conclude it is OK to mistreat animals, because they don’t actually feel anything. ( For instance Descartes)

Scientific evidence on the other hand, show this to be very clearly false. The emotions of many animals are almost exactly similar to our own emotions. And anyone who isn’t a deranged psychopath can see that with their own eyes.

1. I don’t know any Christian who believes it is okay to mistreat animals. We’re still stewards of creation, which also extends to protecting the planet against pollution and global warming
2. Humanists throw this whole argument out the window when the subject is a human foetus. Which can have feelings and feel pain.

As for your theological issues, that’s just Christian doctrine, but you massively misrepresented it. Most religions believe in good and evil (such a thing is absent from atheism) and Christianity just makes a point about everyone being evil, and a divine forgiveness. It also takes away the stress and provides comfort to those scared that they’re not “good enough” for heaven
