As a Christian, I can tell you that is not a Christian sentiment at all, that is hate. Jesus preached to love your neighbor, not condemn them and toss them aside. It is through unconditional love that we are to show people what we stand for. Just look at who Jesus hung out with: prostitutes, tax collectors, and other social outcasts. No wonder why he was unpopular at the time.

It is so disheartening to see people proclaim themselves as Christian and not understanding and living its core values. I don't care whether or not the Bible says it's a sin. Sinner or not, that doesn't affect how I treat people. It is a tragedy when anyone is targeted by bullying, and it hurts even more because of their death. We should be pushing for change to give trans people safety, not casting them aside. That is what a real Christian would do. "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."
