A tenet of Christianity is that we ought to hold each other accountable, and correct and admonish.

Feel free to do that with each other, within your congregation. Telling non-Christians what they can and can't do because of your religious teachings would be like any of us admonishing a Tech grad for not singing the War Hymn.

---

Why come to the religion board and be surprised about a discussion on what you should and shouldn't do?

---

This would be a good point if your wishes to control other people were merely confined to discussions here.

Christians in this country do not oppress adulterers or drunks or greedy people. You know, cuz you care far less about those sins then the 'icky' ones. If you did, you probably would have an adultery pride month.

You still don't see the reactionary relationship here - we don't have Brunette Hair Awareness Month either. Or Green Eye Celebration Day. Because no one really gives a **** what your hair color is or your eye color is. We don't treat people differently for their eye or hair color (generally). These Days and Months and Celebrations exist because they represent people that have been treated differently. The more and more Christians rail and hate the LGBTQ community, the bigger this thing gets.

I'm not surprised by it at all. I'm telling you it makes no sense, but please do keep yelling at Red Raiders about how bad they are at being Aggies.

Yes I'm the boogeyman.

Actually I just want to nudge people in the right direction. Show them a better way. Keep them from destroying themselves with sin. Save their soul.

You seem awfully judgmental, and uncharitable with your aspersions for someone who calls everyone else hateful.

That's a lot of attributes to pin on me for pointing out that your aims aren't constrained to this religion (and philosophy) message board when you tried to say that they were.

I don't think I've called anyone hateful.

Do you object to being called a Christo-fascist for advocating an end to no-fault divorce and criminalization of adultery? Pretty sure the guy i responded to openly embraces that label. Do you think it's an incorrect one?

You're reversing the cause/effect here. One thing is handled in-house, within your congregations. The other spills out into how people are treated by society at large and by the government. If LGBT "sin" was treated in-house like adultery, there wouldn't be a need for any kind of movement to generate better treatment in the broader public sphere.

Like someone said earlier, you don't see Green Eye Pride parades either, but you want to know how to start making them a thing? You start publicly vilifying green eyed people, pass laws targeting green eyed people, and treat green eyed people differently in social interactions than you do people with other colored eyes. If you just shun them in your congregation, most people will just say "that's weird," and go about their business because what you do within your church has no effect on me, whether you're preaching the evils of green eyes, talking in tongues, baptizing babies, or whatever. Have at it.

As a Christian Easter Sunday is sacred and only to be celebrated as such. I understand this is a secular country and respect that.

Therefore:

As an American and a human I find transgender recognition day disgusting. I think it's icky and gross and I don't want to recognize or know them. They do not deserve violence or attacks of any kind. They should be able to live their lives peacefully as they choose. Everyone else should be able to live theirs without having to "recognize" them or celebrate them or even acknowledge them.

It's sick.

---

then don't recognize the day. no one cares.

I'm so damn tired of all this fake outrage. All the outrage over trans visibility day was pure manufactured outrage. I'm so over it. It's on March 31 every year, and happened to coincide with Easter this year and won't again until 2086. so what. Christians don't own that day. It didn't take away anyone's right to celebrate Easter and go to church. it only affected people who wanted to be affected by it.

in a normal world we'd all just see it and say "oh. ok." then go about our Easter. but we don't live in a normal world. we live in a world where everything is terrible and outrageous and we have to throw a hissy fit over everything that hurts our fee fees.

and Trump, a guy who has never touched a Bible in his life (other than the ones he tried to scam people with last week of course), threw a fit on social media over this just to rile up conservatives and get them all angry and pissed off and hating everyone who isn't in their tribe. Keep in mind, he has ZERO good intentions here. He does not give a flying molecular **** about Easter. He's just pandering to evangelicals to say "omg Biden bad. transgender bad. transgender want to take away Jesus."

i'm so over this ***** everyone who's still mad about this and let it ruin their Easter is a miserable person anyway.

---

I think I made it clear that I understand as a secular country that Easter has nothing to do with it.

I would just like to double down on the fact that I think it's gross, and I do not believe it to be worthy of any recognition, as if it was an accomplishment to have gender dysmorphia.

There is no fake outrage. I think it's wrong that our government is pushing these type of ideologies and trying to make them a normal and respectable behavior.

It's a mental illness and a vile disgusting one at that.

"Nudge them." The "nudges" have resulted in tremendous violence and harm towards people who cannot help who and what they are. The uncharitable judgement is from you and yours.

Alright, I'm out brothers! Christ is King! He is risen. Biden can't change that.

Being Christian is such a blessing! Repent, and walk with God. Reject the lust of the flesh, and the ideology of the wicked. Heed not the empty philosophies of men, or doctrines of demons. Be not carried away with every wind of doctrine. God bless you, go with God!

So here's where we see you're just trolling. You complain about comparisons to pedophiles and rapists but the logic you use is the same: they can't help who and what they are, can they? They suffer harm and violence because of it. So why marginalize it?

But consent and harm right? There are people on the left who have (and are) arguing those are social constructs. Remember the philosophers quoted earlier in the thread? When you've succumbed to critical and queer theories you've disarmed yourself. Be glad you still have Christian social mores left from the past to help you find a line.

There is definitely fake outrage. Fox News was reporting on this so much they may as well have said "hello viewers, please be outraged at this thing." Then all the crying from conservatives on twitter about how Biden and the Democrats are "out to get" Christians and eradicate Christianity. It's such annoying hyperbole and hyperventilating, and it's insulting to everyone's intelligence.

I really do not care how you feel about trans day of visibility. There are stupid holidays or days of recognition for everything. Today is Autism Awareness Day. did you know that? I didn't until I googled it. April 5 is International Day of Conscience (whatever that means). point being there's a silly thing to recognize every day of the year, why would trans day be different? Oh, because it's a touchy issue that riles people up. That's the only reason.

And no, it's not because it happened to fall on Easter. Easter can be any day from like March 23 to April 25. So any made up day that falls within that period will fall on Easter at some point. Big frickin' deal.

Not only that, but there is a heavy narrative (even on FoxNews) that Biden did this ON PURPOSE, which makes it even more insane, IMO

I mean, it worked. You've seen so many people here dutifully parroting that out, just as they were told to do. They'll keep doing it until they get their next assignment and then completely leave this one in the dust.

it's all completely dishonest framing to campaign for Trump.

"Biden hates Easter and Christians. Trump is a devout Christian man who loves Easter. Vote for Trump."

Truly appealing to the lowest common denominator
