Are Christians Obsessed With Gays and Abortion?

Are Christians Obsessed With Gays and Abortion?: I chuckle when I hear the common critique of the religious and secular left: 'Evangelicals are obsessed with gays and abortion.' The criticism is so common that it's often internalized and adopted by the church itself. Similar to our reaction to another leftist refrain ('Christians care about children until they're born'), we act as if the critique is legitimate—as if it's the result of some kind of empirical, good-faith analysis of Christian action in America. But it's not. It is, pure and simple, a talking point. And it's false. Demonstrably false.
