Seminary student expelled after years of graduate work for having a valid same sex marriage that would be celebrated as a marriage in many mainline Christian denominations.
This is religious freedom?
So says Bill Barr.

latimes.com/california/sto…

This marriage is valid in all 50 states, could be reported in the New York Times and even the Social Register, could be celebrated by an Episcopal priest or bishop under marriage rites in the Book of Common Prayer ....
But it's an expulsion offense in a seminary?
Sad.

Why don't they just rename this the "William Barr Theological Seminary" so at least students know what they're getting into?

Transgender As A Form Of Social Contagion.

I'm going to cover five different periods of time, and what I believe are four different changes within society. The backstory is needed to set up the first change, and I'll cover the ways in which that change increased exposure.

2/

I'll also be taking some breaks as I write. The parts are -

1). Before mid-to-late 90's.
2). Rise of Transgender and adding "T" to LGB.
3). Butch Lesbian out-migration
4). Rise of social media and self-identification.
5). Development of ROGD as a phenomenon.

3/ The Early Years

Transsexuality started as a study of a different type of person from the usual cross-dressers and transvestites[1]
from what were commonly seen by therapists and sexologists. These were people who sought physical changes.

[1] Descriptive, not pejorative

*Mega Thread* containing over 125 elected antisemitic @uklabour officials

Labour was an anti-racist political party but then @jeremycorbyn became leader with his garbled world view of Israel, and like many of his fans, he can't differentiate from anti-Israel views & antisemitism

@jeremycorbyn

1: People like ALAN BULL a Holocaust denier were protected by @jeremycorbyn's inner circle because they thought he might stand a chance of winning a marginal seat

NB: his partner is now a councillor in Peterborough

@Uklabour

2: ALAN MYERS @Uklabour council candidate was suspended for stating:"if you say anything against them they cry antisemitism & harp back to the holocaust to curry sympathy"

Has he been expelled from Labour for this form of Holocaust revisionism? Who knows? thenorthernecho.co.uk/news/15250825.…
