  It’s in March 31st every year. It doesn’t just go away on the rare occasion Easter also falls on March 31st. Trying to blame Biden for this wreaks of desperation

    It would have been trivial to pick a day that would never fall on the same day as Easter

      Why should whoever was responsible for TDoV have to?

      Trans people were around before Rome, much less, Jesus.

      Lmao it would be even more trivial to notice this doesn’t impact your life in any way and let it the fuck go.

    Yeah Jesus accepted everyone.

    Jesus didn’t tolerate sin but he loved the sinner.

      What does that have to do with being trans—a thing which is not a sin?

      Jesus’ intelorance was always loving

      Tolerance may do well, unless people are in danger. My son might believe it is safe for him to run across the road but I’m intolerant of that belief and behaviour. Instead, because I love him, I shout ‘stop’ and grab him. My friend might believe that alcohol doesn’t affect his driving ability but I’m intolerant of that. Instead, because I love him, I’ll take his car keys and drive him home myself. Jesus knows that people whose views, beliefs, and behaviours differ to his own are in danger. Jesus knows that certain beliefs lead to death, and judgement, and hell. Jesus knows that certain lifestyles are actually harmful to those who practice them. If Jesus had simply tolerated different views and behaviours he’d have smiled, waved, and done nothing. He’d have left people in deadly danger. But instead, Jesus loves people whose beliefs and behaviours differ from his.

      This is why Christians get so much criticism.

      They couch their intolerant behavior in religion and expect us just to accept it as the love of Jesus manifested through them. But that’s not what it is. Sure, Jesus knew certain beliefs lead to death, judgement, and hell but he didn’t bully prostitutes or shun lepers. He also didn’t rape little boys and steal them from their families and claim it was love. And the primary object of his greatest act of intolerance was with the church that claimed to represent him and his father.

      Christianity is under attack. By so-called Christians doing deeply un-Christian things. They play the victim as they victimize others. Their love is narcissistic. And their actions are evil.

      #NotAllChristians or whatever.

      From one of my favorite authors and her blog:

      I don’t think God is calling us to look out for ourselves.

  I remember Jesus hanging out with an AMAB water carrier, but by all means, tell us more about how Jesus has a problem being associated with "the least of these".

    Hes clearly a man, never referred to as anything but a man. How did you get queer from this?

    10He answered, “When you enter the city, a man carrying a jug of water will meet you. Follow him to the house he enters, 11and say to the owner of that house, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?’ 12And he will show you a large upper room, already furnished. Make preparations there.”

      Carrying water was a woman’s gender role in the culture in which our story takes place

      A person calls them one, doesn't make them one—nor did I state explicitly they weren't a man.

      How did I get Queer from a 'dude' doing feminine-coded labor?

  Easter is different every year. Most other event day/holidays are the same every year. Why are people so retarded.

  I always find it odd how many Christian relations are LGBTQ relations given their vociferous opposition.
