In the Mormon Church, the new guidance prohibits those pursuing gender transition from working with children, and bans baptism for those who have transitioned both medically and socially.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints expanded its discrimination by baring people from being baptized even if they have transitioned only socially, by changing their appearance, name or pronouns.
So many hierarchical religions use discrimination to create and maintain hierarchies, this one based on gender orientation. Of course all in the name of Jesus Christ who taught people to accept others and not be judgmental.
In a typical fashion of clueless people building hierarchies, a spokesman for the church, Doug Anderson, said the updates “seek to help Latter-day Saints follow Jesus Christ’s example of ministering with love, patience and respect.”
