Abandon reality ye who enter there

Kelly Boggs of the Louisiana Baptist Messenger does not list, link to or provide pictures of a single item in his "litany" of "positions" he says liberals take regarding sexual matters.

He chooses instead to make it up, asserting as fact:

When it comes to all things pertaining to sexuality and sexual expression, ardent liberals advocate for nothing less than sexual anarchy. A litany of the left’s positions affirms that the previous statement is an ironclad truth.

Reality thus abandoned, Boggs thunders right along to endorse as our collective guide to sexual sanity British anthropologist J.D. Unwin's 1940 paper "The Sexual and Economic Foundations of a New Society." As though Unwin's theories were fully developed.

Unwin, who was not a Christian, didn't live to fully develop his theory of "the sexual foundations of a new society," notes Christianity Today. Although the incomplete works were published in Hopousia. Boggs nonetheless uses Unwin's scholarship to forecast the fall of American civilization. That does, however, fit nicely with the attention to facts with which Boggs launches his argument.
