The thing I always find hypocritical about stuff like this is that churches that espouse Liberal dogma get a pass in the media.
Churches or individual believers who are Conservative have the mythical separation wall tossed in their faces and threats to have their tax exempt status revoked.
There are a few reasons for that.
To begin with, these arguments are almost always started by liberal attempts to change something. Whether or not they're ultimately correct, liberals find it a lot easier to connect the Jesus of the Gospels to "liberal dogma" about things such as "inclusion," judgment, care for the poor, and so on. There's a certain emotional appeal to it. Conservative counter-arguments tend to be intellectual and practical in nature, which by its nature is a harder argument to make; and moreover, there's often a kernel of truth to the liberal argument that more conservative Christians need to acknowledge.
The weakness of liberal dogma is that it often relies on wishes and pretense as opposed to reality, or actual human nature (i.e., we must accept Bruce Jenner's claim to be a "she;" same-sex unions are no different from traditional marriage....). The weakness of conservative religious arguments is that they often deal with actual people as abstractions (e.g., "the gays", as opposed to people we actually know). Christian solutions probably ought to fall in the middle -- acknowledging the liberal claim that there is a problem; and the conservative way of dealing with it in a way that is honest and realistic.
The conservative response is generally intrinsically a harder sell; the media generally buy into the liberal dogma, have no problem highlighting our weaknesses and misbehavior while turning a blind eye to, or failing even to recognize, the difficulties of the liberal side.
Unfortunately, we conservatives often defend our positions in ways that make us look bad: mean, provincial, stupid, vindictive... what have you. We can often look not very much like the sort of Christian that Jesus talked about. Liberals are great at pointing out the hypocrisy of others, and unfortunately they get a lot of mileage out of our behavior.
