Good for her.

Still it’s weird staying with the homophobia but Carl being a cheater being the breaking point. Idk. It’s prob more complicated than that. It is a cult after all..

christians are hypocrites like that.

A bit simplified but basically "I'm okay with destroying the lives of queer people, but I draw the line at marital problems."

Genuine question, as I have no idea about Hillsong and have managed to steer clear of it mostly, but what is their actual stance on homosexuality? I always see a guy pop up on my search feed on Insta (I can't find him right now, but I'll come back if he comes up on me feed in the next few days) and he seems to post really pro-LGBTQ+ stuff and I'm pretty sure he's a pastor for Hillsong and has lots if followers, so I'd assume quite high up.

Are they of the "Hate the sin, love the sinner" line of thinking? If so, huge side eye that THIS is what made Selena move on.

They do conversion therapy.

exactly - I rolled my eyes hard. She'll just move on to another conservative church dressed up as hip.
