Nebraska. Republicans gather to celebrate banning healthcare for trans kids and simultaneously eliminating abortion access in the state

In Jesus’ name.

A Jesus who:

Hates science
Hates gay people
Hates trans people
Hates poor people
Puts gun rights above children
And needs your money

Think about the kind of person it takes to celebrate hurting others.

For many of us, this isn’t just the face of the GOP. This is the face of Christianity

@flexghost just because they put Jesus on their poster doesn't mean they are Christians. Dont offend the entire Christianity religion by saying that they are represented by these people.

@tizi they are Christian. Your reaction is proving my point.

I'm not sure how much we should try to separate the rational religious from the extremists. The rational religious people are rational to the extent that they reject edicts of the bible, like stoning unruly children or murdering queer folk. The rational ones provide cover for the extremists.

@Jeramee that assumes religious rationality exists to begin with.

Yes. That's why I said they are rational to the extent they reject their religion.

Where do you think my reaction is coming from?
Just curious.
