It’s PRIDE month. LGBTQ citizens are exercising their right to be themselves, to openly declare their gender and sexual preferences without fear of prosecution and generally without interference from the rest of society. This wasn’t always the case and that’s why PRIDE month is so important. It’s a show of solidarity. It’s not just LGBTQ peoples’ opportunity to stand up and be counted – it’s our opportunity to show our acceptance of our fellow men and women.
I’m so tired of uninformed, unfeeling and above all uncaring Christians having a go at Trans people.
I’m so tired of uninformed, unfeeling and above all uncaring Christians having a go at Trans people. It’s what Christianity always does – they can’t demonstrate the reality of the deity they claim to believe in; they can’t make any reasonable arguments for its existence and they can’t persuade anyone of its truth without resorting to lies, distortions and ad hominem attacks.
It used to be ‘fornicators’ they attacked until people started being more open about their sex lives. It used to be gay men and latterly women until reasonable people realised that other peoples’ sex lives are none of their business. It used to be those who need an abortion until, apart from in the states, people began to accept that wider social and economic issues take precedence and now it’s trans people.
The church always needs someone to hate – a visible but not too strong minority to be the bogeyman. Unfortunately for Christians though the world moves on – secular morality develops and outgrows the nonsense of Christianity as the church hops desperately from target to target trying to keep up.
