Ignoring the biblical directive to show all the children of God love and grace… and forgiveness. Who, on a side note, never said a word about homosexuality but did tell us to gouge out our lustful eyes. We realize that, in fact, Paul was not promoting slavery. A person whose sexual orientation is homosexual, or bi-sexual, or queer can no more separate themselves from their sexuality than a heterosexual person can.

Taking care of church members. We become more skilled at interpreting the original Greek and, over time, we decide to stop quoting the Bible to support slavery or the subjugation of women, or racism, etc.

We Christians are good at a lot of things. They probably would not specifically agree on a single term, but they would most likely name something that is, in every way, the opposite of the oppression, belittlement, hatred and marginalization represented by the numerous atrocities committed by the Christian Church.
