The two Gay men look like the ultimate respectability Gays, but it doesn’t matter, the Christians are upset.

The controversy seems to stem from a lot of the Evangelical Christians being supporters after Chip and Joanna Gaines mentioned what serious Christians they were when they had their fixer upper show on HGTV, a channel with reality shows about homes and renovating homes and where people do dreadful things, in opinion, to houses.

Chip Gaines defended the show.

Talk, ask qustns, listen.. maybe even learn. Too much to ask of modern American Christian culture. Judge 1st, understand later/never

It’s a sad sunday when “non believers” have never been confronted with hate or vitriol until they are introduced to a modern American Christian

The attacks follow.

The following X post of Graham had 3,300 comments, 3,400 reposts, 23,000 likes and 1.6 million views.

The Christian Post is now running an editorial against them attacking their character.

Christian Post, July 22, 2025, “Chip and Joanna Gaines: When popularity wins over God’s truth.”

Far from being family-friendly wholesome entertainment, “Back to the Frontier” marks a tragic surrender to the sexual revolution and the LGBT agenda. By choosing to feature two men pretending to be married, along with their commodified children, Chip and Joanna Gaines have publicly traded biblical truth for progressive applause, turning their shiplap empire into a modern-day Sodom and Gomorrah.

And the bottom line is really about their bottom line: They decided that compromise with — and approval from — the world is more profitable than obedience to God.

The article is full of statements like these.

While money may have been the driving factor in this choice to trade Zion for Sodom, here’s what’s at the root of the confused theology they are using to defend themselves:

This whole affair is an instruction as to what Evangelical Christianity is, a demanding belief system intolerant of any divergent views.

The whole episode is good, since the Christians have been pushing their New Homophobia where their homophobia is presented as loving and concerned for LGBT people, but the whole mirage collapses with the controversy over the Back to the Frontier show.
