The Deconstruction of Manwell Reyes and his "God doesn't love gays" Strawman Argument

Manwell Reyes, from the Christian hip hop band Group 1 Crew, is apparently another Christian influencer that is deconstructing his faith. And as usual, with deconstruction comes some sort of shift in sexual ethics. In his Convos with Manny podcast, he shared an interview with a patron from his Nights at the Round Table Patreon community, Melinda, who shares her story of identifying as gay and then feeling unloved by her church but still loved by God. Manwell claims that her saying she's still loved by God is triggering to conservative, Bible-believing Christians. I say that's a huge strawman argument. So, let's watch major portions of his interview and explore the theological approach and worldview Manwell and Melinda are using, along with some responses.
