This is not about individual christians being hypocrites. Do we get the implications of this or are we just going to implode on ourselves?

This reminds me of the "frog in the kettle" syndrome... I think by the time many Christians start to realize what's happening, the water will be already approaching the boiling point.
(But I do think you might have been a bit harsh toward Sis. Falla, though.)

I think Sis. Falla was just posting her thoughts--not really addressing the video. But really, what can be done? Christians can't take action against such people, so how does the "frog in the kettle" syndrome even relate? We can't exactly jump out of this kettle, even if it does start heating up.

The "frog in the kettle" reference has to do with the fact that I believe many Christians are understimating the nefarious agenda of the demonic radical HomoNazi movement, and the implications it could have for the church down the line as these people 1... become more and more physically confrontational with Christians, and 2... try to use the power of the law to further their persecution of, and hostility toward, the Church.
I believe confrontations like the ones we see on that video may just be the tip of the iceberg.

I agree, and I agree.

Exactly. If I was too harsh towards here then I apologize.
