“Along with their anger about abortion, they grouse about not being allowed to punish students “for being homosexual or transgender.” They also argue they should be able to penalize teaching assistants for “cross-dressing,” by which they appear to mean allowing trans women to wear skirts.”
Religious extremists always use the “slippery slope” argument against progress, because that’s what they want.
If anyone ever tells you they have to do something because their religious texts says so, you need to immediately look at the craziest shit that’s in there.
Because either they’re lying about their reason for doing the first thing, or they’re working their way up to the craziest shit.
And regardless of what religion it is, there’s going to be some absolutely horrible shit in there.
I know a lot of people that will cite Leviticus to explain how homosexuality is bad, yet none of them like to talk about the parts of Leviticus that condone and regulate who you should enslave and how you should treat your slaves. 🤔
Or not cutting the hair around your temples, or wearing clothing with mixed fabric or, I dunno, eating shrimp.
