Department of Public Works employee Eric Batman claims that having to see a Progress Pride flag flying outside the department’s Alhambra, California, headquarters during the month of June effectively forces him to “celebrate, recognize, and solemnize conduct and actions that he views as sin” in conflict with his sincerely held Christian religious beliefs, according to a lawsuit filed in March by anti-LGBTQ+ evangelical nonprofit the Liberty Counsel.
Meanwhile my church:
(ALT: The words “The Episcopal Church” in white above a variation of a shield graphic that has a blue field in the upper left with a series of white crosses forming an X shape; pink, blue, brown, black diagonal stripes on the right; the classic Pride rainbow colors of purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, and red forming the remaining sections with a white cross holding them all together)
EDIT: I tried to use a spoiler tag/format but I apparently suck at that. Sorry. Don’t sue me!
Wow, everyone is so impressed that you’re able to do the bare minimum required to be a decent human.
I mean, I only shared it in reference to the supposedly Christian guy getting upset at the sight of a pride flag as though it’s completely counter to Christian belief and practice, meanwhile there are Christian churches that solemnize same-sex marriage, ordain openly gay and trans clergy, etc. Wasn’t really aiming for social points. But thanks for the comment!
