Do you get to not have an opinion on the whole NFL flag/stand/kneel/Trump/protest deal going on?
Because holy smokes people. It's everywhere and once again everyone has an expert opinion.
I don't know if there's a right answer to this question. Maybe there's no way to not have an opinion on this because you're either with Black Lives Matter and against injustice towards poc...or you're not. OR maybe it's that you're either with veterans and those who are currently serving and those who have lost their lives for your rights...or you're not.
Or maybe, just maybe, you don't have to have a set opinion and you see the complicated mess of inequality and human sin that has led to this battle of words and symbols.
But what you do have to be is uncomfortable. I think, in that, we don't have a choice. No one can comfortably stay on the outside of institutionalized racism and blatant brutality. No one can comfortably stay on the outside when (good) core ideals of America are attacked.
One can navigate the opinions and learn from each side. One cannot stand by as sins of commission and omission tear apart the Body of Christ.
