A story we're following is covered by the Los Angeles Blade ("Southern California's LGBTQ News Source"):
Anti-LGBTQ student group threatening legal action at UNH Law.
A Christian student group opposed to same-sex marriage, abortion and the rights of transgender people is threatening legal action after the University of New Hampshire Franklin Pierce School of Law student governing body failed to act on its petition to form its inaugural chapter at the university.
New Hampshire Public Radio (NHPR) correspondent Todd Bookman reported that the Free Exercise Coalition is an organization with the stated mission to “equip religious students in their free exercise of religion,” according to paperwork filed with the school.
As you might expect from "Southern California's LGBTQ News Source", the Free Exercise Coalition is
described:
Student board members of the group pledge to uphold “Judeo-Christian” religious traditions and beliefs, as well as oppose gay marriage, abortion and transgender people.
I can believe they oppose gay marriage and abortion. But what does it mean to oppose "transgender people"?
What does the pledge actually say? I think that's
here.
I believe that the Judeo-Christian belief system is incompatible with Transgender Ideology, and that a person is either born male or born female according to the Divine’s decree.
Not quite the same thing, Los Angeles Blade.
The Blade cites
Todd Bookman's report for Commie New Hampshre Public Radio , which
is
here.
As you might expect, it makes the same invidious caricature:
Board members of the group pledge to uphold “Judeo-Christian” religious traditions and beliefs, as well as oppose gay marriage, abortion and transgender people.
Again, that should be "transgender ideology." Not people.
The NHPR report also contains a quote from a local atheist:
“When people realize the school is not really friendly, not really supportive to DEI, and that the school is not friendly, not really supportive of religious persons and beliefs, no one is going to want to come here,” he said.
Did he really say that?
