I don’t want to hear a single “egalitarian” who does not affirm LGBT+ people attempt to speak against the #SocialJusticeStatement.
Don’t pretend to be indignant when you are still complicit in the systems that made this possible. Save it.

Say you affirm PoC all you want.
Say you affirm women all you want.
But what about trans women theologians?
Married gay Hispanic men?

Queer people are not “opinions” or “ideas.” We are not nebulous, abstract concepts whose existence & loves & callings you can “disagree” with.
And if you believe so — discredit the racism & sexism in that “statement” all you want! — you’re no different than John MacArthur.

If your theology dictates our gender & sexual identities are products of a “fallen world,” that the only way for lesbians/gays to live within “God’s design” is celibacy, that we cannot assume church leadership positions:
You are killing us.
Yes, *including* QPOC & queer women.

(You know, the same PoC and women you pretend to champion, yet you slice their gender and sexual identities out of the picture so their existence becomes more palatable to you.)
