If I ever get confronted by a Christian specifically, I have John 6, 37 locked and loaded.

Other than that, I want to try my best and have an actual conversation and explain things. It seems to me that many transphobes just don't know jackshit, and fearing or hating the unknown is all too common.

I guess that'll depend on how I'm feeling on any given day though. I know won't always have the patience for it.

Ooo. I like that. Using their tactic of spewing random passages from THEIR religious text (as if it means something to me)

Thanks for your input ! 🩷

The entire Gospel of John is basically all about how God and Jesus love everyone, no matter who they are or what they do.

Funny how this part of the Bible never comes up when they make an argument
