That dude has a secret Grindr account for sure. His username is probably "Yankn4Yeshua"

Proselytize Religion

Take away the tax freedoms. This is obviously a political organization.
As a Christian and former pastor, I'm 100% in favor of taxing religous organizations that exist to serve political interst in theory. Separation of church and state makes both institutions better. But it's difficult in practice. Short of a preacher saying to vote a certain way, it's difficult to nail down if they're being political.
Sometimes there are issues relevant to churches that become super political.
Matthew 25 says that Christians will be judged on their treatment of the poor, the hungry, the sick, the imprisoned, and the foreigners. It's pretty much the only time when Jesus directly threatens damnation. Our government is committing atrocities against all these groups. Should Trump have the power to effectively close churches that preach messages he doesn't like by taking them out of existence?
This. You start making these money making machines chip in their fair share to the local infrastructures they leech off of, and all that political shit will stop real fast.
Lunatics like that just don't have a concept of politics that can exist disconnected from religion, religion is the only legitimate politic. This is as old as the existence of cities. It's so hard to make a civilization that breaks off from that and to maintain it that way.
Quick reminder of everything Jesus said about LGBTQ+ folks, you can look these up!
". . ."
He did say to "love your neighbor" quite a few times, but they are going to ignore that as it is far too woke.
Matthew 25:40:
"40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me."
“I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.” ― Mahatma Gandhi
sign it if you want to get smited by angel or god for being so sacriligeous
Who is this trash human to speak for a god?
These Christians apparently don't realize that Christians cut off their balls for many centuries, until the 1800s. The first council of Nicea was convened because of this very subject, to stop their priests and other eager converts from castrating themselves.
Jesus said it was fine, cut those buddies off! But, priests at Nicea Council disagreed, saying it's all metaphorical, stop doing that even though Jesus said you should do that.
So, if they are right and their God is the boss, their entire religion, from early days to Catholicism to today, is based on blasphemy.
Anyways, they should be if anything exuberantly trans.
So, if you're a real christian, you should cut your balls off, got it.
Jesus Himself said "All men cannot receive this saying, save they to whom it is given. For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it."
So, you don't have to cut your balls off, that's silly. BUT it's perfectly fine if you do.
Colorado tends to deal with these nutjobs fairly well. We don't tolereate people like this.
When you have to threaten the sheep to comply with your ignorance and hatred, you aren’t the shepherd- you’re the wolf.
We now gave definitive proof that Jesus isn't real, because if he were, he'd come down here and punch this guy in the fucking face.
You know what they say:
God helps those who help themselves
Whatcha say? Wanna go punchin'?
Fuck you AND Jesus!
Hey asshole. Come over where I am (plus some friends) and say that shit. We love and support our Trans community, you fucking piece of shit.
There would be no LGBTQIA+ community without transfolks fighting for our rights
Ain’t no love like Christian love.
I thought it was Ain't no hate like Christian love?
This guy fancies little boys assholes, just like MJ.
I'm not overly familiar with US laws or anything, but isn't a church that messes with politics at risk of losing their tax exemption?
Not really, in practice. Thanks to Scientology, the IRS is extremely gun shy at doing anything to churches that violate their tax exempt status, or anything vaguely church-shaped for that matter.
I would happily pull out a bullhorn I keep for such occasions (as I'm sure everyone does, it's totally normal) and yell into his face "YOUR JESUS SAID TO LOVE YOUR NEIGHBORS AND SAID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT TRANS PEOPLE"
But let's all remember that in those times, your neighbors were your people, your family and tribe; not just a random stranger (which could very well be your neighbor today).
And the word he used for “love” means to actively provide for their needs and well-being. That would include HRT.
