DEBATE: LGBTQ+ in the Church? | Andrew Wilson Vs Matthew J. Distefano
"I agree with you that I'm actually not a Christian. I'm post-Christian. I spent 25 years as a Protestant, so I might concede here and say I'm not a Christian."
During a contentious debate on LGBTQ inclusion in the church, Matthew DeStefano openly conceded he does not identify as a traditional Christian and questioned core doctrines including the Trinity. When pressed by Orthodox Christian Andrew Wilson on whether Jesus is God, DeStefano hedged, saying he's 'agnostic' on Trinitarian theology and prefers 'mystery' over certainty, undermining his claim to speak for progressive Christianity.
