I started using Busuu yesterday: I like it too for the languages they have, and while they don’t have all languages they make up for it with good learning materials.

Though I’m not sure about the inclusive words for French due to my convictions as a Christian.

What do you mean by "I'm not sure about the inclusive words for French due to my convictions as a Christian"?

Oh, there’s a new course on Busuu for French that I don’t like that deals with inclusive terms I’m probably not confortable talking about anymore since they deal with genders and sexuality.

I’m trying to be a Christian instead and not talk about those things in my faith, but that doesn’t mean I’ll be learning what is supposed to be teaching me French with weird terminology.

Nice excuse for your own laziness and immaturity. My advice is to stop learning other languages if you can't handle the tiniest of opinions. Part of language learning is cultural humility, you're just a culture pig who needs their feelings coddled.

You have a bad and selfish attitude.
