In these times of extreme political polarization, hunger, poverty, terrorism, homelessness, failing education, and increased warmongering, it's surprising that leaders in the Catholic, Lutheran, Anglican, Baptist, Presbyterian, Churches of God, and Muslim faiths can still all find a way to come together in harmony and be united on what's obviously the most important issue for these churches and the world right now...making sure that everyone knows, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that they still think LGBT people are icky and shouldn't have the same rights as everyone else. Ugh. 🙄 I've never felt so proud....to no longer be religious. www.usccb.org/issues-and-action/marriage-and-family/marriage/promotion-and-defense-of-marriage/created-male-and-female.cfm

And until such time as they can get rid of same-sex marriage, the Ministry of Truth... I mean, the Trump administration ... will do all it can to help by making sure government agencies don't go encouraging these dreadful LGBT people or offending God-fearing people by referring to them. Hallelujah.

Yes, such brave souls they were to come out with this proclamation right after MiniTru announced that the CDC can't say "transgender" anymore.

I just love it when massive authoritarian establishments manage to piss off large hunks of the population in a single blow. It makes my job so much easier.

Ugh, figures. And, given that she's not just a higher profile evangelical, but a female evangelical with a higher profile, I very much doubt she'd be getting the same treatment if she were a man. I sense a lot of " women should keep silent!" motivations behind the hostility she's gotten.

It made me sad. She sounds like a genuinely lovely person.
Sounds like she is sticking to her guns, so power to her. Hopefully she'll reach some (women at least) in the evangelical community. I've no doubt there's some sexism in the reaction to her.
