It requires some courage, but this was awesome. It is like Andrey rayan from the game Bioshock 1 intro, at the first time descending underwater towards the fallen city. I may post a link to a video for additional laughs if wanted.

 I have what I would call a fairly religious social media following. 
60k OR SO followers give or take 10,000!

I purposely list that I am TG & SUPPORT 🏳️‍[emoji304]!

I HAVE found, like you all, most people are clueless as to what TG / CD / QUEER ETC...  mean..

WHEN I took time to state some facts I got fifty questions by some  real tough hombres.   

BOTTOM LINE IS that what I found as a result of this endeavor was impressive.  For me at least!

May not translate to this or it may, because living the life is way more significant of a challenge IMHO. 

My point, my key learning, the holier than now religious folks will out themselves in 10 seconds.  They unfollowed me and told me how it was, I simply told them to [emoji867] off![emoji19][emoji6]!

Amazingly, 99% of religious folk that responded, did not care!  At all.  We're supportive.  I had not made a big deal out of the fact I was TG!  They got to know me and then BAM, They liked me and appreciated my views and when I told them, it did not matter. 

IF YOU ARE looking for approval of all, you will forever fail. 

Congrats on your success!  Perhaps you are one hell of a lady as it appears, and they love YOU, over fears or titles.   

IMHO, THE GIRLS / GUYS in my counseling group really struggle with acceptance. 

Stories like yours, my followers and hopefully some of you alls here, DEMONSTRATE a glimmer of hope that times are a changing. 

And BTW, When a religious person throws it at my face I as them ... " so tell me when your son, daughter, grand child comes to you and says they are LGBTQ etc...  you will cast them out like yesterday's rubbish then huh.  If you say you would, you are a liar! 

You need to think before you talk, because what you stated to me means you would.  What does it say about you?  Not much.

I think they avoid my place now because every time they turn my housemate asks them if they have a moment to hear the good word of Charles Darwin.

Me too!! I just look at them blankly and say I'm an atheist who studies the spirituality of all the great religions. If they keep going, I tell them I have studied religion for years and would never choose Christianity. If I had to pick I'd choose Buddhism. That usually runs them off.

QuoteWhen someone that fit into those two categories knock on my door I would answer it and ask if they had read my sign. If they said no which they invariably did I told them to read it and slammed the door on them.

QuoteI have no tolerance for door to door bible thumpers. I will tell them politely I'm not interested.

I live in a condo.  In Ontario, where I live, it's illegal for people to go door to door on private property.  So, I tell them they're trespassing on private property and tell them to leave.  If they don't leave, I call the police.  I used to have a problem with JWs coming to my door, but not since the police talked to them.

I'm not born again.  My mom got it right the first time.
