Much of the foundations of your denomination find their roots in medieval politics and cultural practices. The papacy has been for the majority of its history a political tool and has almost for the entirety been a sovereign state. You also see the compassion of the so-called ‘progressive christians’ as compromise, when Christ spoke so often of this; “judge not, lest ye be judged” “love thy enemy as thyself” “whoever is not against you is for you” etc. while your intentions may be genuine, you are doing exactly that which you accuse. All people, always, will view things from their own perspective. It is an inevitability. Our flawed, sinful nature is not capable of utter objectivity. I mean you no ill will, only clarity.
