Great job dodging the question. Re-read the original post, and maybe you'll see how my question was related. But you clearly don't like thinking about that kind of thing, so I won't be holding my breath. Yes, the Bible is very clear that we should not tolerate sin, but it's also very clear that we should tolerate sinners. I'm sorry that you don't have God's love in your heart to shine it like a lens upon others to brighten their lives and help guide them away from sin. But that's a matter between you and God alone. I will not defend "simping" for prostitution, because I don't believe such a thing can be defended. I think we agree completely, there. I *am* saying that I'm against prostitution. I'm glad that you're against people being weak and simping and trying to be a white knight; I'm against that, too. I'm also against people trying to pick fights everywhere they go, like a chihuahua, and lying to themselves by avoiding simple questions that they would prefer not to think about. But those who do so are still my fellow travelers on this road called life, and while I hate those behaviors, I still love those who behave that way. So call me a simp (because now I'm simping to you, eh? 😅), call me weak, call me a "white knight"; it doesn't matter. I will continue to do my best to be honest with myself and shine God's love on everyone, including you. Later! 👋

Oof. I never said that we should hang out in the red light district and have prostitutes feed us wisdom from their poisoned cup. I also never said that "anything goes", nor do I believe that (though I do agree 100% with Matthew 10:34, which you quoted). You're putting words in my mouth; so are you projecting, or are you simply incapable of nuanced thought? Something tells you that I'm reading the Bible wrong? Well, given what I just pointed that I *didn't* say, my comments certainly couldn't have told you that, so exactly what source are you getting your hate from? Please stop looking for enemies among friends. In general: I. Agree. With. You. But it's possible to love and weep over a vile sinner while also recognizing the vileness of the sin. If you had the love of God in your heart as much as His Word, you would have already known know that.
Actually, you know what? I'm sorry I ever said anything here in this entire thread at all. Clearly, these are the kinds of things I should just keep to myself. So I'll be muting this whole conversation now.
