OP-ED: No One Ever Deconstructs into a More Faithful Christian
Deconstruction=death
Name a single person who ever deconstructed and came out more biblically faithful, more conservative, and more of a fundamentalist in their word and deed.
They don’t exist, because deconstruction=death.
You ever hear someone say “I deconstructed and now I hate sin even more?”
You ever hear someone say “I deconstructed and now I’m even more against same-sex marriage and unbiblical sexual activity”?
You ever hear someone say “I deconstructed and now I have an even more particular and emphatic view of what the gospel is and what one must do to be saved”?
You ever hear someone say “I deconstructed and now I’m even a more ferocious defender of the exclusivity of Christ”?
You ever hear someone say “I deconstructed and now I’m more pro-life and even more of an abortion abolitionist”?
You ever hear someone say “I deconstructed and now I have an ever higher view of the scriptures and a greater intolerance for bible twisting and exegesis?”
No. You don’t.
All you hear is “I deconstructed and now I don’t go to church and am more open to other truths and also love is love and maybe it’s ok to curb stomp a fetus.”
Deconstruction is spiritual strychnine, and those looking to indulge in it never come out the other side whole or healthy, but rather passers-on of the very theological poison they claimed to reject.
