This community does not affirm practiced LGBTQ+ lifestyles

Rule 8 of this community is in clear breach of the first goal from the lemmy/mastodon.world code of conduct

    “WHO AM I TO JUDGE” – THE POPE’S COMMENTS ON GAY PEOPLE (dilw.ie)
    Giving this post the old litmus test to see how admins vs mods handle this. Tread carefully :3 Nobody’s closer to Jesus in rank than the Pope.

    Does anyone else feel churches are pushing gendered Bible studies way too hard? (kbin.social)
    Maybe it’s because I was growing out of youth groups, but It seemed to me that coed Bible studies used to be more of the norm. Now all of a sudden we have men’s groups and women’s groups. And men’s groups are all about Bible, throwing axes and equating 400 pushups to mountain climb your way into heaven. And women’s…

    This Sunday, pray for missionaries that are overseas. (kbin.social)
    You can pray for missionaries in general (which is great), or you can ask your church about specific missionaries they support (which is also great).

    What was being preached? Did you learn anything? Do you have anything we can pray for?

    Tech difficulties meant worship was disorganised this morning, but 5 people were baptised in the sea so it was awesome…

    What are you grateful to God for today? (kbin.social)
    I’m feeling convicted about some sin I’ve been struggling with. Thankful that I can approach the throne of grace with confidence where I can find mercy, be freed from shame and cling to God’s strength as I seek to be holy. Praise Jesus for his love that has made this relationship possible…

    Ace Lifestyle? (kbin.social)
    I was reading the rules and it said “This community does not affirm practiced LGBTQ+ lifestyles, with the exception of the ace lifestyle in certain contexts.”, what is an “ace lifestyle”?

    What do you need prayer for? (kbin.social)
    There’s only a few of us right now, but we should pray for one another. What do you need prayer for?

    How important is love to Christianity? (kbin.social)
    Is love simply one of the attributes of God, one of the more important attributes of God, or is it the entirety of who God is?..

    Introduce Yourselves (kbin.social)
    Greetings, everyone! As many of you know, there is a huge influx of new users coming to Lemmy from Reddit. This includes yours truly, by the way. Whether you’re a Reddit escapee or coming from somewhere else entirely, please feel free to introduce yourself here - not your real name, of course (don’t doxx yourself!), but a little…

      Well, that first thread on your list there was in response to the bigotry that informed rule 8.

      If you want to talk to me again, please refrain from huge pointless text dumps.

        You’re the one claiming they are like stormfront, and I’ve just shown otherwise. Want to try again?

          No, scroll waaaaaay up and re-read what I wrote. I said that bigots already have many platforms on which they were welcome. The guy defending bigots whined that this isn’t one of them. I said that he was upset because he would prefer everywhere to be more like stormfront.

          All you did was dump a wall of text that omitted the bigotry central to the discussion. Because not only are you irritating enough to dump a wall of text in the service of bigotry, you’re dishonest enough to deny it where it exists.

          Not every site is obligated to be complicit in the spread of bigotry. No good community welcomes bigots.

            So, why not install one of the members there as mod to clean up the rule (which has never been enforced). As it is, it’s been nuked - the community name is banned forever, and the members are sol.

            edit: The community was deleted less than an hour after this thread went up, there was no effort made to correct the problem whatsoever.

              They were removed for being bigots.

              Good. Hope to see the admins doing so consistently.

              there was no effort made to correct the problem whatsoever.

              Sure there was. The problem was solved by the ban.
