And to be clear, lost custody of their transgender teen they were refused to accept as transgender in order to appeal to a false god people like them made up to better control the populace that they will likely never meet.

Imagine claiming that God would create a universe chalked full of the worst things imaginable and that you must ignore all of the torture pain and horror for the chance of being with them.

Sounds a lot like an abusive relationship don’t it?

Right, and the child was removed from their care because they tried treating her eating disorder by sending her to a religious counselor to convince her she's a boy.

according to the arguments Christians themselves use in court, bigotry is a core religious value of theirs. they deserve no sympathy
