Christendom is being made a mockery of. I'd argue that the most important debate would be in the arguments to revitalize the "fear of God" and to spread His word to those who are welcoming to hear it. In many cases, people are curious and seek faith, but are bombarded by "feel good" liturgy and loose translations. This Judeo-christianity thing is a deception to pacify Christians and lead them away from the literal word. The "New Translation" is a weapon as well.
Politics is still interesting to debate though and the debate between the three systems is always fun. It's much more interesting than trump vs biden bullshit. It should be clear at this point left foot or right foot, we're walking down the same path regardless.
... but are bombarded by "feel good" liturgy and loose translations.
Tell me about it. When I first became a Trinitarian, I really appreciated “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” by Jonathan Edwards. I was new to Christianity, but I knew full well the fire-and-brimstone was a much more important message these days.
I no longer endorse Edwards as such as any authority, being now Orthodox. But the point still stands. People these days prefer having their ears tickled, over sound teaching. It artificially inflates the real numbers.
