Paul Ryan Tells Conservatives To Stop Fighting the Culture War, Because It's "Polarizing"

Behold the cvck:

David Strom comments:

Ryan is wrong about us having a choice about fighting a culture war because, frankly, we are not the aggressors in this war. Conservatives are not opening women's locker rooms and women's sports to men; conservatives aren't grooming children with porn in the schools and hiding their children's mental health from parents; conservatives aren't engaged in pushing a "not-so-secret" queer agenda in children's programming. And conservatives are not pushing a radical ideology that begins with the assumption that America is evil and that Western Civilization needs to be destroyed.

The Left is, and they own the institutions. They can censor us, cancel us, deprive us of jobs, sic the FBI after us, and even change laws in a manner designed to protect pedophiles.

Unless you are willing to submit to their demands, your only alternative is to fight back.

Paul Ryan is arguing we should submit.

No. Hell no!

...

Paul Ryan is just plain wrong, and he is wrong because he believes that conservatives are trying to fight against an inevitable social movement and that the game isn’t worth the candle. What he fails to understand is that there is nothing organic about the social changes happening–they are the result of an effort to undermine our social order, and that effort can be blocked.

Relatedly, Megachurch pastor Rick Warren is fighting for more female pastors.

Southern Baptists are meeting in New Orleans for their annual convention this week. Megachurch Pastor Rick Warren, author of the bestselling book The Purpose-Driven Life, is waging war with the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), hoping to push the denomination to the left on the issue of female pastors.

Warren, now "retired" but still listed as the Founding Pastor on Saddleback Church's website, is pressuring the SBC to allow female pastors, contrary to clear biblical teaching that pastoral roles are reserved for men.

Warren has been all over Twitter, TikTok, and YouTube this past week, viciously attacking his opponents (while calling for love and reconciliation). He's become increasingly combative, calling his opponents "angry fundamentalists," "angry fighters," and "legalist showmen." (I'll leave it up to readers to determine who's playing the role of "showman" in this debate.)
