Tensions are running high as conservative Christians and gays and lesbians clash in a re-ignited culture war. New York Times readers were treated to a full-page ad on Friday accusing gays and lesbians of religious bigotry and
mob behavior.

The signers of the ad, a cadre of religious-right figures calling themselves No Mob Veto, said, "beginning today, we commit ourselves to opposing and publicly shaming anyone who resorts to the rhetoric of anti-religious
bigotry."

I'm an anti-evil bigot, I'll admit to that.

My gender identity and sexual orientation are part of my religion. The right wing is infringing on my freedom of religion.

And if you think I'm kidding, I'm not. The last time I was in the hospital, my spiritual care survey ran through my needs for correct name and pronouns.
