Really?? That’s terrible. I always say either all of us have rights or none of us really do. Likewise, It’s either all of us are children of God or none of us are. jfc

Yeah, he called transgender people an affront to human dignity and said we are a threat as grave as nuclear weapons.

Which is so odd because he's met with trans people www.ncronline.org/opinion/gues...

Thanks. I hope the new Pope evolves. I read he may be more conservative on this issue. I'm glad about this meeting. It's a start.

Here. I found this. He was against surgeries. I have not found that he was against transgender folks, but he came out strongly against the surgeries. www.newsweek.com/pope-francis...

Like, it's the same phony wisdom that brings us sentiments like "you can be gay, just don't act on it."

When people learn better, a number of them do better. Many older folks came around to accept LGB people. It's never a lost cause.

Sure, but there are orders of magnitude more LGB people than trans people and the medical aspect icks people out in more profound ways than mere attraction. These factors are why we are so easy to target and so easy to censor from public life entirely. So what I'm saying...is time isn't enough.

I am well aware. Knowing this doesn't change the speed at which the church evolves, unfortunately. As more people outside the church evolve, it will feel more pressure to do the same. The new Pope is 69. At that age, change is slower. Younger generations will have different ideas.

It's not coming at the speed we need it to. All we can do is keep pushing back, against the hate.

Well the surgeries are a pretty significant part of it for us, so if he's against the surgeries he's against us as a whole. Inseparable.

You took that at face value. I don't know if it's true or not. I've never heard about it. glaad.org/pope-francis...
