The View From (Ab)Normal Heights (http://transadvocate.com/autumnsandeen/archives/1493)

"Would Jesus approve of baring false witness against transgender people? Is that what conservative Christians now support — baring false witness to make "Christian" points?

Well, if you're Theresa Rickman of the Citizens For A Responsible Government, it's apparently okay to bare false witness against transgender people. If you're a professional Christian like Matt Barber or Martha Kleder — both with the Concerned Women For America (CWA) — it's apparently okay to use pejoratives like "she-male" (Matt: here; Martha: below) — and suborn baring false witness by not pointing out that your podcast guest created a media stunt, specifically to slander transgender people's alleged bad behavior in bathrooms and locker rooms."
