It's time the Church addresses these issues.  This is Socially directed, the attack on our children, elderly, minorities,  poor….and now Women is hardly Christian.

GOD's table is big enough for every view point to be CIVILLY, and RESPECTFULLY discussed.  we as the body of Christ are as diverse as GOD GODself. let us enter into tough  conversations while always recognizing Christ in the other person/people.  i’m sorry you feel that way. if you disagree with even starting a civil discussion surrounding current events, i fear that is one way that the church will move more and more to being seen as “not relevant” to this generation and the future. just avoiding the tough topics doesn’t make them “go away” or make “everyone agree.”
