Media Engage In Anti-Christian Witch Hunt

It’s more than a little troubling to know that Rev. Louie Giglio was ousted from President Obama’s Inauguration over a sermon he gave on the sin of homosexuality sometime in the nineties. We expect the “tolerant-oppressives” on the Left to attempt to smear Christianity as de facto bigotry; it’s just another weapon in their never-ending crusade to destroy religion. But the media and our White House taking an active role in such a thing marks a new era for Christians and Christianity, and, I fear, not a good one.

We have now officially reached a point where the elite media and a sitting president not only believe Christianity is bigotry, but that this bigotry is worthy of ostracizing from public life those who believe in the teachings of the Bible.

The context is important here, as well. As far as we know, Giglio gave one sermon over a long, varied and respected career. Moreover, he kept his remarks where they belonged, on behavior, not humanity. Had Giglio been railing against homosexuals and singling them out, that would be something entirely different. Had Giglio attempted to demonize people over who they are as opposed to specifying behavior, that would also be risible.

But Giglio never came close to crossing those lines and even talked about how “we mustlovingly but firmly respond to the aggressive agenda of not all, but of many in the homosexual community.” Many Christians, like myself, believe this is how most personal sin should be approached. This even includes, yes, sins committed by those who are not gay. And, yes, the Bible also contains a whole host of sins surrounding the sexuality of heterosexuals.

What we’re seeing with the left and the media, though, is that believing in the teachings of the Bible, and more importantly, espousing and professing those beliefs, is now treated as though it’s hate speech, bigotry, homophobia, or worse.
