American Christianity Has a Hypocrisy Problem

"American Christianity became a clanging cymbal when it sent missionaries to other countries but refused to accept these same "foreigners" into their homeland....(and) created destabilization throughout the world by enthusiastically endorsing military interventions and devious foreign policies...this pattern doesn't glorify God, and it became a form of colonization disguised as religious charity.

American Christianity became a noisy gong when it gained political, social, cultural, and economic power at the expensive of vilifying LGBTQ individuals, oppressing people of color, deporting immigrants, denying refugees, abusing children, and assaulting women.

American Christianity promised eternal salvation in heaven while refusing to save refugees on earth.

American Christianity promoted citizenship in God's kingdom while denying citizenship to asylum seekers. American Christianity evangelized under the premises of grace and mercy while ruthlessly deporting people using cruelty and legalism. American Christianity claimed to be based on the pillars of truth and honesty, but endorsed politicians who lie and cheat. American Christianity pretended to worship the Prince of Peace while perpetuating endless wars across the world. American Christianity paid lip service to love and acceptance, but thrives on fear and oppression.

American Christianity became nothing when it promoted salvation by grace through a middle-eastern refugee who was arrested, incarcerated, tortured, and given the death penalty under Roman law, but refused to address a broken justice system infested with police brutality, unjust incarceration rates, state-sponsored torture, and the immorality of capital punishment.

American Christendom was founded upon the genocide of Indigenous nations, and the few who survived were enslaved, along with those brought in from the African continent....the patriotism American Christianity...is a revisionist lie that celebrates generations of white supremacy and the brutal suppression of others..."heretics" were killed, "witches" burned, humans sold as chattel, and all of this was baptized under the rationalization of "Christian law" and "missions."

The American Church must validate their pain, and accept our horrific failures. Religiosity, theology, nationalism, and patriotism were used to cloak our atrocities..."

Church’s Handling of Sexual Misconduct Allegations

"The full leadership team of the Chicago-area megachurch Willow Creek has resigned months after megachurch pastor Bill Hybels stepped down in disgrace due to a series of sexual misconduct allegations. Calling past internal investigations into Hybels’ behavior “flawed,” the committee of church elders said in a Wednesday statement that “Willow needs and deserves a fresh start....'Trust has been broken by leadership, and it doesn’t return quickly'...

Their departure comes days after the resignation of Steve Carter, Larson’s co-lead pastor The church will also launch a new internal investigation into Hybels’s alleged behavior, due to the fallout from news reports. These developments follow the Sunday publication of a New York Times report detailing additional allegations against Hybels...."

Yet more sexual hypocrisy from the church. Its leaders preach one message and do another privately.

Look up the meaning of the word "hypocrisy"

Then look at some of our pop cultural depictions of women

in movies and magazines

in commercial advertisements

on billboards, bus stop shelters, and the sides of buildings

and then tell me we deplore the sexual objectification of women

and then tell me why we must say we deplore the sexual objectification of women

and then tell me what's wrong with the sexual objectification of women

Here's what I think:

Women like to talk about sex.

Men just like to think about it.

Moe sexual hypocrisy from a church that preaches about sexual behavior:-

Former New Mexico Priest, 81, Sentenced to 30 years for Child Sexual Abuse


"A former Roman Catholic priest who fled to Morocco before he was returned to the United States and convicted of sexually abusing an altar boy in New Mexico in the 1990s was sentenced on Friday to 30 years in prison, prosecutors said.

US District Judge Martha Vazquez imposed the sentence in Albuquerque federal court on Arthur Perrault, 81, a onetime Air Force chaplain and colonel, US Attorney John Anderson said in a statement.

'There are few acts more horrific than the long-term sexual abuse of a child,' Anderson said. 'At long last, today's sentence holds Perrault accountable for his deplorable conduct.' "

Not all people, we, think the same.

Our culture is hypocritical, sending contradictory virtue signals about sexual objectification; this results in cognitive dissonance (a form of hypocrisy) in those acculturated to those mixed signals. You're right -- we don't all think the same; but whatever we think, there's a contradictory signal in the air so to speak that makes for uneasiness in our belief. Look through the early pages of the thread where you can observe this dissonance played out in the posts of members.

Culture can't be hypocritical because it doesn't speak with one voice.

So what if one group does one thing that another group says not to do ?


A group or church saying something like adultery is bad, and speaking with one voice, is hypocritical if an officer of that church who supports its position on adultery is hypocritical.

Research in the field of hypocrisy and the concomitant SSP disorder has turned up an exciting correlation in the form of the latest dance craze of the Swinging Sixties.

In Wittgensteinian terms, there is a family resemblance here.

Utter Hypocrisy - a CHURCH PASTOR caught fleeing NAKED while cheating on his wife:-


"...a Tallahassee pastor named O. Jermaine Simmons apologized to the congregation at Jacob's Chapel for sleeping with a married woman and being caught by her husband.

According to the woman involved, her husband threatened to kill Simmons (for his hypocritical adultery) when he found them together in his daughter's bed. Simmons fled the house naked while the man charged into his bedroom to get his handgun..."

UTTER HYPOCRISY:

"I used to be a pastor's wife. My husband was a successful soul winner and an excellent speaker. He had charisma that attracted people and won their friendship. For many years his commitment to serve people was genuine. Unfortunately, he let himself become too close to the women of the church.

For 25 years his warm personality and flirtatious manner won him many lady friends. I accepted this as part of his sanguine personality. Then some thing happened. He committed adultery..."


Church preaches fidelity - thou shalt not commit adultery - and then one of its pastor's gets caught doing exactly that.

Your perseverating posts on religious hypocrisy remind those of us of literary bent of the climactic moment in Comrade's classic sea story in which the somniloquent utterances of the titular character disclose the nature of the beast to an astonished crew. Did you have that character and scene in mind while posting, I wonder? Have you read the story? The resonance is uncanny!

No but you seem familiar with it. Like sexual hypocrisy.

40% of pastors admit to having extramarital affair!

"Forty percent of pastors surveyed admitted to having an extra marital affair after entering the ministry! 40%! How does that happen? Of course, it is common knowledge that there have been pastors that have had moral failures, after all we are dealing with human beings. But to have a whopping 40% admit to an affair? ... "


Sheer hypocrisy from 40% of people trying to persuade us a god exists and has 10 commandments...one of which is THOU SHALL NOT COMIT ADULTERY


Absolute HYPOCRISY. And these men preach that the Bible is true and a god is waiting in judgement. Total lies and hypocrisy.

No I didn't read the answer to the questions because it's not there. So I'll ask again (a simple yes/no answer will suffice):

If so, do you agree they're examples of "sexual hypocrisy" ?
