Envy vs. gratitude and service.
There is some negative commentary on this forum (not a lot, but some) about her apparent comfort and acceptance of the LBGTQ..whatever lifestyle, and I understand that criticism, but for me, it is tempered by the fact that she is a woman.
Again, not all women, but many women.
That may sound sexist, but one cannot view the current landscape and have conversations with many women without concluding that not only is there far broader acceptance among women of this lifestyle, but on examination, appears to be tied into the female traits hardwired by biology.
If someone does not believe men and women are biologically different in ways that are beyond simply defining a woman as an “XX” chromosome type (which in my view is enough) then this observation will hold no water at all for that person, but...that does not mean the observation does not in reality hold water.
I do believe men and women are hardwired differently in our brains, and there are good and natural reasons for that. And I attribute this “acceptance” of the LGBTQ...whatever lifestyle in Dolly Parton to that fundamental difference.
I understand why many take issue with that conclusion, but regardless, I believe it...”carries water”.
I don’t know if she ever found Christ even though she has made many statements about belief in God, and I don’t know either if she is someone who believes that “good works” amounts to being a Christian.
But that is between her and God, and I leave it to that. It is apparent she has done her share of “good works” in this world, and that is what many are celebrating today.
