Nowadays, there's only a certain belief system you've got to follow. If you don't follow it, society won't only condemn you as ignorant and contemptibly old-fashioned, but heartless, narrow-minded, hateful, judgmental, stubborn, arrogant, and/or an inhibitor of progress. These are only some of the qualities that may be assigned to you if you depart from the belief system that's generally accepted today.
To be considered one of the "moral" and "upright" people in society today, you must (1) Not only accept all those who are homosexual unequivocally, but also believe in the strong morality of homosexuality, such that you would be one if only you were "born" that way, (2) In the serious nature and existence of global warming as well as the strong necessity to reverse it (which, even granting its existence, doesn't by any means imply human causation of the effects, and without that assurance the idea of reversing it is laughable) and (though this isn't nearly as bad as the others) (3) Evolution is real and all the physical evidence supports it, so anyone against it is just believing in unproven fantasies.
Honestly, under normal circumstances I wouldn't care what the heck people thought was a good opinion and what wasn't, except that now you see Christians trying to reconcile what society says they should think with what Christianity (or, more accurately, God) says they should think. Well, I've got something to say to you! If you have to adjust your Christian beliefs to conform to society's expectations of you, you've got your priorities all mixed up!! GOD should be your priority - it doesn't matter what other people think! People who are trying to conform to society's expectations of them are boarding a sinking ship!!
The fact is, if you're doing that already, later you're going to have major problems!! It's going to get hard, people are going to think we're altogether horrible people for being the way we are. It's okay. But we've got to stand strong. Honestly, until a couple of weeks ago I used to inwardly sigh and roll my eyes when people have said "the end times are coming fast, they're almost here." I thought, "Wow, they've only been saying that every century for the past 21 centuries!!" Seriously, though. God woke me up, and he really shook me up in the process! It is coming soon. Whether it'll be in my lifetime, I don't know! However, I know it's coming, and I think it'll be here within a few generations at most.
I just look around me, and I see so many Christians trying so hard to live up to society's expectations of them, but that priority has got to go! You'd best kill it completely, because if you keep reconciling your beliefs with society's skewed view of morality, you're going to find yourself in a trap. As society's morals get more and more skewed, and their opinions more and more reprehensible, you're going to have to make a farther leap to get to a point where they won't toss you aside as ignorant or narrow-minded. However, they'll be just tiny baby steps. You'll just take one little one so they won't reject you, and then one small other one when the time comes, and another one. Soon enough you'll be across the street, with God waving at you from a distance and a bus passing between you. Please don't let that happen to you!! You have to be willing to take some disgusting junk for God! I mean, for now it's easy. People are just like, "Oh, please. You believe that? Psh." Later it will be much worse. Don't be afraid. God has his expectations of you too, and if to keep up with them you have to be hated, disdained, mocked, laughed at, or even physically beaten, you have to be willing to do it!! The worst anyone can do to you is give you death. They give you death and you gain the world. They are powerless. The end.
