“Today, when we cannot agree on what makes a marriage, or even on something as obvious as whether one is male or female, the tyranny is starting to resemble anarchy and nihilism.

NO CULTURE CAN WITHSTAND SUCH A BASIC UNDERMINING. PROBLEMS OF THIS SORT ARE CIVILIZATION KILLERS!”

Nobody can seriously argue that point.

His points are all well, and good, and they aren't wrong.

But there's another point: The unbeliever is at great risk of going to Hell. Christ COMMANDED us to preach the Gospel to all nations, and to baptize them:

Matthew 28:16-20King James Version (KJV) 16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. 17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted. 18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Are the unbelievers unbelievers because we believers have fallen down in our duty to 'teach all nations'?
