Calling a student what they want to be called. Oh, the humanity!
Jesus Fucking Allah Buddah Mohammad Baphomet Christ on rubber crutches. How godamned hard is it to leave your hate-filled religion at the door and just be a decent human being for 8 hours?
Background: We have one of those fucking stupid "religious freedumb" laws on the books. "It won't be used to discriminate", they lied. Bullshit. This is exactly the kind of crap they want to use that law for. Goddamn, I hate this state. Can't even do the bare minimum of not being a piece of shit.
Jesus would NEVER EVER stand for calling students what they want to be called!
Haven't you heard? Evangelicals are now rejecting the teachings of Jesus.
Don't judge others.
Love your neighbour, and this means anyone in need, especially ones from ethnicities your nation shuns.
Look after the poor, the widows and the foreigners.
Pay your taxes.
But seriously, number one and number two are love God and love your neighbour, according to Jesus, and he got really really cross about the religious leaders making up all kinds of rules for everyone else to follow, and for making the temple all about the money.
He also said that you can't love God and money.
It's just not a very Republican kind of line of morality, you can see why they're rejecting it.
