Your sermon sounds a little different than your earlier small t message...

...Not ban them because there’s enough of that from the left these days but publicly shame such nuttery. The light of truth is the best weapon against disinformation otherwise more retreats into even more shadowy realms of the Internet solve nothing...

To, uh, resurrect an oft used phrase from the not so distance past, what would Jesus say of shaming someone for thinking differently from the acceptable norm in a search for truth? Did Jesus attack every Pharisee? Was he patient with every disciple?

Publicly shaming nuttery is not the same thing as shaming people as persons.

Jesus had some very harsh words to say to Pharisees. But for their obstinacy. Their refusal to accept the Truth in front of them.

Shame the nuttery (the ideas). That’s what I was saying. I thought it was clear. Sorry it wasn’t.
