Thanks Trent. I'd be interested to hear what you ultimately decide. I do pray for PFOX to be led and blessed of the Lord.

Randy, I agree on what I skimmed through. I get PFOX's regular mass email and I'm increasingly concerned that they are looking just like militant homosexual activists. The trend I've seen in the last 8 months or so leads me to believe they are indeed trying to pick a fight and I've considered dumping the subscription.
I'll echo all the pro-JESUS comments.

Great post. Picking a fight doesn't show love, we must get rid of the ex-gay vocab and proclaim Christianity. We are identified in Christ alone. When will all this back and forth stop?

Sure thing. Thank you Vicki. There are religious liberty concerns across the board but the same issue we could possibly face as people on a post-gay journey fall under that heading. We don't need protected class status … in my humble opinion of course.

I would assume that the shareholder is doing this because they are trying to protect people on a post-gay journey. This is the way gay activism has worked in the workplace so it probably seemed like that was the only option. I don't know the shareholder so I could just be talking out my ear about it but that is my assumption as to the why.

But regardless, my concerns are based on the action/consequences and not the motivation.

Good, I am glad to find others in agreement. I love Regina personally and I think they and this shareholder have good hearts but I just … well, I think my post adequately shares my concerns.

Excellent article; good points. I'm inclined to agree with you. Let our identity be in Christ, nothing else. “We are defined by Christ alone.” Thank you, Randy.

I do not know the heart or motivation of the person involved in pursuing this with Disney. I also agree with you Randy from a biblical and philosophical perspective. Having said that, it is a tactic that can be used to take the power out of the gay pursuit and use of the same tactic. If all of the sudden every variation on the theme must now become protected, how ridiculous it becomes to do it at all. Just a thought
