A “bishop” who thinks God made a mistake on its sex. Okay.

First they want you to tolerate it, then accept it, then celebrate it then participate in it.

The Lutheran Church deserves all the pain it gets from this nutcase. You let an alligator into the living room, you’re going to get bit.

“It’s been really baffling to me the level of explicit transphobia...”

She is surprised that normal people find her revolting?

This is why freedom on association is so important.

These LGBT types disgust me. A kid is told he is a boy or a girl by his parents or at least his mother. God does not make mistakes.

Gangstas are “straight outta Compton”. Depraved masqueraders are straight outta San Francisco.

He or she or it was misgendered? And this is part of the lawsuit?

Hiring a “trans” person/thing/whatever is just a lawsuit waiting to happen.

Three little words I never, in my lifetime, thought I would see in a news article:

transgender Lutheran bishop

The ELCA reaps what it sows. Only it is not a church and it is definitely not Lutheran

God doesn’t make mistakes when it comes to gays. When we’re talking about genders tho, He was way off the mark!

You have to be brain dead to be a liberal these days.

They probably made all kinds of concessions to admit this person in the first place.

And this is how he/she shows gratitude?

This person is obviously not internalizing the messages he/she allegedly went there to learn.

Use the correct pronoun. “It” seems appropriate.

This “bishop” could have made these same allegations if someone opened up a Bible and read from it.

I can’t figure this one out.

So, she is a woman pretending to be a man?

And she wants to lead her flock off the cliff?
