AP News: England is limiting gender transitions for youths. US legislators are watching

I finally had a chance to catch up with the grand Rev. Ed Trevors. Here are some clips

What I love about this one is that he talks about it is not his job and he doesn’t have the right to force or demand you to live his life, his ways.   Nor do you have the right o demand or force it the other way on him.  He says it is not his job to make you the same religion he is.  He says it is his job to show you the love of Christ in the gospels and if you decide it is not for you or you want a different church he is very fine with it.  He is not charged by his god to make you be the same religion / faith or join his church.  His job is to live god’s love, and by example show you that love.  He says if your faith says don’t do something, then you shouldn’t do it.  But only those who also believe like you, everyone else is free to do it.   What a refreshing thing to hear a religious person say.  Hugs.   Scottie
