If I ever get confronted by a Christian specifically, I have John 6, 37 locked and loaded.
Other than that, I want to try my best and have an actual conversation and explain things. It seems to me that many transphobes just don't know jackshit, and fearing or hating the unknown is all too common.
I guess that'll depend on how I'm feeling on any given day though. I know won't always have the patience for it.
Ooo. I like that. Using their tactic of spewing random passages from THEIR religious text (as if it means something to me)
Thanks for your input ! đ©·
The entire Gospel of John is basically all about how God and Jesus love everyone, no matter who they are or what they do.
Funny how this part of the Bible never comes up when they make an argument
What is 6 37
I'm still at the point im seen as a cis boy but in my country most ppl are catholics specifically
Specifically the second sentence:
Those who come to me, I will not drive away
Oki
But yeah, as said before, the whole Book of John is a stark contrast to everything a religiously motivated bigot would say. But then again, these people will always find a way to twist the argument in their favour.
Can't explain things to someone who isn't open to it.
Yea. The only real way to deal with transohobes is a blÄhaj made of steel /j
