I think there is a very large expanse between “not having perfect answers” and saying “the church needs more hostility.”
Elsewhere, on another matter:

condescending post from you.
“the church needs more hostility” is a deliberately poor characterization of persons pointing out The Truth, that when life is failing, returning to God’s perfect plan, is hostile. (clever wording!) - you get credit for that.
but it’s not helpful, not godly, and reflects a dark spirit. are you sure you want to live there?
i’m not convinced you do. i think you’re better than that. “sin is such a liar.” sin loves confusion+division. LOVES it!
nett:
I have not advocated for hostility towards the people who are struggling with these things,
but rather towards the very real and conscious agendas that want to destroy those people.
Christians cannot continue to pretend that all these institutions, born out of modernity are their friends.
i believe this is correct, both in nett giving context to his words and intent, and his advice/warning that “the world” does not have answers that resolve problems. Only temporarily+superficially. No substance.
Are mistakes made? - you betcha. evil does not rest. “don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater!” sin is such a liar.
This topic has many shocking examples of exploitation of children+teens. One after another.
Many adult homosexuals, adult trans, others de-transing, are 100% against child mutilation.
That’s the power of organized political blocs/lobbies/organized political ENTITIES.
They have no need nor intent to listen to anyone - not even those they purport to represent! They lie. They bully. No restraint.
They don’t even pay for their own tools. They steal from taxpayers to fund their wild antics. So ugly.
