A major part of CRT is its presuppositions—which it demands you accept, including:
• Racism is engrained in the fabric & system of the American society
• Power structures based on white privilege & white supremacy exist & must be overthrown.
Does this seem like a “boogeyman”? 1

Therefore, "Does racism exist in this situation" is never the right question. Rather, it& #39;s, "How is the racism we KNOW is present here working?" CRT demands that you assume racism. Suggesting otherwise is racist. Even asking for evidence is racist. 2/
The only hope of being (partially) justified in the CRT worldview is to:
1) accept its presuppositions, admit the inherent if unconscious racism of all white people & black people who disagree because of "internalized whiteness," 3/

2) give yourself to lifelong penance by becoming an "anti-racist," which means committing to seeing racism everywhere in all people, rebuking it (& them), calling attention to it, & dismantling it. This form of atonement is lifelong.

If a white person questions any of this he is a racist. If a black person questions this he is dehumanized as not "authentically black." That is, he has a "black body but not a black voice."
CRT is materialistic, Godless, unfalsifiable, & committed to deconstructing society. 5/

Calling CRT out, renouncing it, & warning against it are no more divisive for Christians than is renouncing gnosticism, materialism, bigotry, or adultery. To see Christian leaders suggest otherwise is a commentary on them. Failure to renounce CRT is a dereliction of duty. 6/
Any Christian leader who understands CRT & refuses to reject it is not a trustworthy guide in the battle that is raging. Anyone who promotes it is either too naive to be a leader or has become complicit with the enemy against Christ.
