The statements seem like a reiteration of common Christian held dogma but there is plenty of criticism.

have come under fire from Nashville's mayor and critics on social media.

Screw these people using 'social media" as a bludgeon to suppress anything they don't like - but especially people of principle need not go weak in the knees because some goober with a cell phone calls them names.

This is historic Christian teaching.

The fact that it is so controversial speaks to its divine origin.

We could feed Nashville's mayor and critics on social media to ISIS in Syria.

ISIS will "sort out" their problems with religion...

2013 Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops (USA) Statement on Marriage and Sexuality

http://assemblyofbishops.org/about/documents/2013-assembly-statement-on-marriage-and-sexuality

We Orthodox say essentially the same thing as the evangelicals. But most social media basically ignore us, because we are fewer in number in the US, and don’t make as big a splash politically. But here we are—the oldest continuing historic Christian Church!!!!

You’ll notice the statement has no real penalties attached to it. So this is a “We only care because you disagree with us” response.
Meanwhile, AntiFa threatens to kill people they don’t like.

SCIENCE agrees with the Evangelicals.

It is NOT scientifically possible that two genetic males or two genetic females could “create” a baby together — without artificial “help”.

Therefore, there can not be an INHERITED or NATURAL life-style-choice “gene”.

Therefore, as scientists have known for thousands of years, sexual deviance is DEVIANCE.

You need to quit worshiping demons, Deray. Nothing good lies at the end of the road you're on. REPENT, Deray! Turn aside from you wickedness and seek The Lord!

Stupid MSM.

Who? Never heard of it, whatever it is. Definitely sounds like someone I wouldn't want to meet or know.

The insularity of the MSM really boggles the mind. I doubt that even 5% of Americans have heard about or care who this chump is. Maybe that's why the MSM fancy themselves as so awesomely "leet".

I get Denny Burk’s newsletter because on the internet I sparred with him on ECT vs CI (He’s ECT and I’m CI). He’s actually located at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary near Churchil downs in Louisville. I drive by it every day and keep thinking I need to introduce myself.

I heard him on Medved yesterday. This whole thing is comical. His group is simply re-affirming what the bible says. It is not writing laws. It is similar to, in a particular church, writing down what your particular congregation believes.

The fact that it is being attacked shows the ludicrous and ignorance based boldness of the left which, truth be told, is their attempt at bullying Christianity. Fortunately, Trump is not Hillary so they can pound sand.

But the day will come when they will win...before they lose once and for all.

Correction above. I'm sure that's true.

And what would be the name of that god? Baal?

John 15:18 applies.

The ancient texts are clear. Jewish and Christian doctrine is unequivocal.

God made male and female.

Period. Full stop. End of story.

It is sad and indicative of the age that these things have to be reiterated. I think the audience here is not the non-Christian population but to Christians themselves. Many of them in the evangelical community have gotten drunk on the “love” part of Christ's message while basically giving in to accepting the rot of same sex marriage and activity. Other words many are becoming products of the age, like pacifism infected the Christian Church in the 60s, rather than products of the truth.

Less harmfully we see this in attitudes on the environment. The command to have dominion over the earth has been twisted and turned into a “Christian” doctrine on environmentalism. More harmfully the example of Paul's church has been seen as a justification for socialism. And under the guise of “loving the sinner” homosexuality is being tolerated.
