That saddest thing is reaction among most of even the conservative evangelical Christian community seems to be little more than a shrug and a yawn. Christians in America have become like the 600lb Gorillia who has been convinced by the its really only a 10lb spider monkey and so instead of clobbering the opposition like they could if flexed their collective social and political muscle, the just scurry away and hide.

apillar: “That saddest thing is reaction among most of even the conservative evangelical Christian community seems to be little more than a shrug and a yawn.”

I think there are a least two reasons for that. #1 the media makes it seem like there are far more of them (leftists) than us. They certainly go out of their way to make the pro-homosexual position seem trendy and popular. #2 Christians see this as an inevitable sign of the times—something that we can’t change and probably wouldn’t want to change in the first place as it leads to Christ’s return.

#1 is simply an advertising campaign. As such, it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s reality. It’s simply the reality they are trying to create, and it isn’t guaranteed to work.

#2 There’s also no guarantee that these are the end times predicted in prophecy. Christians throughout the ages have tended to think Christ’s return is imminent. For all any of us know, we may be on the edge of a great revival brought about as a result of the left’s overreach on things like abortion and homosexuality.
