Why don't you bring that little protest over here

As we have seen over the last several years the Christian church is very good at playing the victim. While the Mormon church may be tiring of the attention, other churches are trying to get some. A Dallas church advertised a sermon on "Gay is Not OK" and when that drew protesters, they announced the next week's sermon would be, "What to Say to a Gay Person." And when that draws protests they will claim, "See, I told you. Gays are trying to destroy Christianity." Churches can choose the venue, put their own cameras on the protesters, and dub in the spin of their choice. A response to that is, "So? They're doing that anyway." Perhaps we can turn the debate a bit and start talking about how their theology isn't really Christian.
