Back to the Stone Age.

Ugh. This is so sad. Please pray for JP Sears' ex-wife. She deserves so much better than what he did to her.

This saga has reminded me why I lost interest in church in the first place: Because I found myself constantly surrounded by weak, effeminate men. If you glance around this site, you’ll notice that virtually everyone recognizes there’s a problem with our recently-famous internet power couple except for a significant portion of one group: the loud and proud Christians. Everyone running cover for them falls into the Naïve Christian camp. Since a large number of these folks are struggling with the moral math, I’ll spell it out: A married woman who constantly brings attention to her promiscuous past has not truly repented of it. To repent is to let the old version of yourself die and to bury it as you commit to becoming something better. As a wife and a mother, you have responsibilities to your family that supersede any good that might come from constant, public retellings of your hoe-to-homemaker redemption story. One is to safeguard and promote your husband's reputation so that he can be effective in acting on behalf of the family. The behavior of a man’s wife directly impacts the respect he commands from other men. Making TikTok videos about all the men who used to rail you is kryptonite to your husband’s standing. Thus, the effect of Ashley’s hoe-branding is to promote herself at the expense of her husband and, by extension, her family. This is true even if her gay, retarded husband doesn’t realize it. So the problem with Ashley is not her past as much as her present. She’s living to exalt herself at the expense of those closest to her. And she’s found a new, clever way to do it: she packages her words in a tidy little pitch that she calls “her testimony”. And with this label applied, NPC Christians take to their conditioning to automatically sanction her deranged behavior without considering the wider implications of what she’s doing. And where does this NPC conditioning come from? With that question, we’ve arrived at the real problem: The modern church is rife with pudgy, gay-faced pastors who themselves have little actual virtue and are unfit to lead –– yet who are annoyingly well-practiced at hand-waving bad behavior with whichever Bible verse they find most convenient in the moment. To put it bluntly: any adult man who cannot quickly and easily tell you why this couple’s behavior is wrong –– and who is willing to publicly do so –– has absolutely no business leading a church. Yet many are coming out of the woodwork to provide cover for them rather than call out their bullshit. They’re doing this because they –– along with Ashley and her gay, retarded husband –– are participating in the process of inflating their own status without grounding it in any real virtue while falling back on Christian psychobabble to cover their tracks. Christian Status Laundering, you might call it. Misappropriating Christian theology to pretend that they’re admirable and virtuous because they all need the others to do the same for them. And so the racket continues as anyone with actual virtue becomes demoralized and detached from the church, and the perpetual degenerates stick around and provide cover for each other.
