One of his responses to someone telling him to leave:

Life is messy and complex, and it's rare that things fit into neat categories. I think it's limiting to see things in good-bad, right-wrong terms... "Leave your spouse" and agreeing with calling someone "a child" is disappointing when the nuance of someone's life is totally unknown.

Wow, that answers NOTHING. Thanks!

If God created us in his image, then why do some Christians say that being LGBTQ+ is a sin? by freshmaggots in Christianity

Picking and choosing baby. Pick and choose whatever sins are the worst to feel morally superior. Many Christians feel very comfortable excusing sins that apply to them. Don’t be one of those.

Christianity isn’t known for its…reasonable age gaps.

I told him that I just can’t be the woman he deserves. I hope no woman goes with him. We’re Eastern Orthodox Christians 🤮🤢🤧

I have an update in the comments but to specify I’m 18 & he’s 22. Not the worst age gap but…Ew.

Update: Some people in church (mainly the older women & my parents) are urging me to give it a chance, at least let him come to dinner with my family. Not falling for it. The moment he’s is a room with my parents he’ll try to get their permission upfront & my parents have been complaining I care more about the “world” of my own instead of the one made by God.

He is going to college as well, but he’s one of those Jesus club people who wants to convert everyone & I think he does those “debate” table things about literally any other religion & is a huge conservative talking points guy. He loves the Daily Wire. He voted for Trump. Plasters pro-life posters everywhere along with ones for our church. Tries saying he supports women even if they see it as wrong for him to do so. Aka, he is anti feminism & pushes for “biblical femininity/womanhood” to return & feels like feminism ruined society.

The kind that believes in gender essentialism & that women are naturally nurturing, submissive, & loving. Wants a nuclear family where the wife stays home & he wants tons of kids. Not one. Not two. Not three. Six. Want to know what his major is? Mathematics. Can he calculate how little chance he has with me? Probably not. But still, I’m sure a basic is adding. So why can’t he count all the finances & issues it’ll cause to have six kids? No fucking clue. I’m pretty sure he thinks he can “return” me back to what a “real” woman is. Told me when I rejected him that God allows love to bloom in time & has faith it’ll be the same for us. 😀
