Faith should affect politics. Religion sucks so hard.

He expresses his belief in the bible and at the same time he refuses to weaponize the bible which so many "believers" do. And they do not realize, that by doing so, they make themselves common with every other religeous fanatic.

Go read Romans 1:21-32 and see how God feel about it. He only made make and female. Anything else is own mind understand. God was against man on man and woman on woman back then he still is even in the new testament

Reality: the Bible is very bold on what is more important of the ten commandments-1. Love the lord 2. Love thy neighbor! Bigots are the ones who corrupt the teachings of the Holy Scriptures @cnnee @cnn @dallasyoungdems @firstdallas

He should not walk back that God is nonbinary. God doesn’t have gender. Theologically accurate statement. See God in others. See God in nonbinary people. Find ways to let go of your bigotry.
