    I’m not “spreading misinformation”, I’m sharing my lived experience. I’m aware that I haven’t personally checked with every single church but my experience is typically that they all say we’re god’s creation and should be respectful, but there’s always that whispered “except them”.

      I also have experienced discrimination and bigotry from churches, but I know now there are plenty of inclusive big churches and I wanted people to understand that.

      I went through 4 years of high school at a Born Again church because my parents forced me there and every day was hell. They suspected I was gay and being called the f-slur was the least of my issues.
