Title: Conservative Christian Bias Against Trans People/Link to Radio Show
Post by: juliekins on November 24, 2009, 12:20:42 PM
I was alerted to this broadcast on a conservative christian radio show. It is an interview between the host and a representative from Coral Ridge Ministries. The topic is the "New Civil War in America".  The taped show is one hour, and covers everythings from Pres.Obama's "socialist/communist" healthcare bill to homosexuality and ->-bleeped-<-. 

Listen between the 17:20 minute down to the 12:00 minute mark. (minutes left in the show)

The caller is a transsexual Chrisitian woman who is proclaiming to be a believer who just wishes that the hate speech simmer down. Not only do they say she is deluded, but also that her "lifestyle choice does not allow her to be a believing christian".

They also blast the recently passed Hate Crimes legislation since it picks on christians who pray at gay pride parades. TG'ism is also a 'mental disorder', they say and encourage the caller to find a compassionate christian counselor to help this caller with her sinful nature and problem.

Do you think that they both know that they are losing the war on ignorance?

What I found interesting is after the transwoman, who talked about over 100 TG people murdered, call ended the host and some other caller said this was the "transgender agenda", that anyone who doesn't support them is committing a hate crime.  Then they went on to dehumanize transgender people.

No, there's no hate there!
