You weren’t aware that Douglas Wilson is outrageously racist? That’s fair. Well, here are the receipts proving that he is, and now you can’t unknow this. Pastors, do not bring this man’s influence into your church. And be a true shepherd if it has taken hold and root it out.

Conservative Brazilians were the ones who were instrumental in Doug Wilson being removed as a keynote speaker at the upcoming Brazilian conference in February. Not the leftists, not the liberals. For the record, we at Examining Moscow are conservative Christians as well.

Wilson is saying he was cancelled in Brazil because the “intolerance of the left”. I was once a speaker at CC and I affirm: IT WAS NOT THE LEFT All the left has done was an article with his views on slavery. Like many of us who didn’t want him here, I’m a reformed conservative

Joe, Emilie was a student who was groomed, not an adult in a consensual affair. This was not an affair, it was sexual assault. Nance should be in prison.

@KSPrior @douglaswils It provides a good opportunity to illustrate the point. I can, without hesitation, condemn the sinfulness of both Jim *and* Emilie (including the fact that Jim’s sin was unquestionably worse). My question is: would you condemn the sin of *both* of them? Or only Jim’s?

About a month ago I had a 3 hour conversation with a former Christ Church member, a gentleman in his 70s. One takeaway: that even after 20 years of living many states away from Doug Wilson and having had no contact with him, he was still terrified of Wilson. Think about that.

Another day, another report of abuse in a Christ Church family. This time it’s brothers raping their prepubescent sister. Some days the things we hear are simply unbearable. And then I think: the victims don’t get a day off. So we’re not going to take a day off either. #EDWAM

@Sledteamcaptain If you believe that men are saved by faith alone in Christ alone, yet women are saved by faith in Christ + doing the works of childbearing, then you are believing a false gospel that is a true heresy.
