In this episode Chad Rhodes gives Charlotte Elia some space to rant about the hate being spewed online by the so-called Christian Right, and then your hosts discuss both the wisdom of trying to respond to it and some tactics should one choose to witness against it.

"Ultimately, beyond scriptural evidence, the tradition, what Paul may or may not have actually meant in these clobber passages- beyond all of that, I do not want to participate in the demeaning exercise of debating the basic dignity of others." -Charlotte Elia

"It just makes me so mad to see my faith maligned and used in this way by people who are not only intentionally trying to hurt other people but are doing that for their own economic benefit and basically for clout- that that's the way you want to build a career is off of twisting the Christian faith into something hateful as a way to build yourself up. Like, you don't get it. I don't need any more proof than that. I don't need your 'This verse out of 1 Corinthians and this verse out of Timothy.' You don't get it. If that's the enterprise you're after, you don't get it." -Charlotte Elia

“I’m telling you this stuff isn’t Christianity, and it’s so far removed from the gospel that I don’t even know if it’s worthy of being addressed other than to say, ‘That ain’t it, buddy. My God is love. My God created us for love, to love, to be loved, continually calls us into love, will ultimately bring us into the fullness of his love, so if you’re opposed to that, you’re not on the agenda.’” -Charlotte Elia
