Religious Liberties Are Not Even Biblical!
Recent and possible upcoming Supreme Court rulings, battles in conservative states over books and transgender human rights – and remembering back to a clerk in Kentucky, a baker in Colorado, a florist in Washington... All of these, in one way or another – sometimes direct, sometimes indirect – are all discriminating against LGBTQ+ people, women, children, people of color, and many others, all in the name of 'religious liberty.'
It is indefensible to just add God to it, and expect to get away with all this hate and harm.
Well, we are doing this episode because we want to join the growing voices who will not remain silent, who are not going let them get away with it anymore.
