In an address to a Committee on Oversight and Reform hearing on Thursday in which the Trump administration was accused of undermining LGBTQ rights, radical Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) claimed that Jesus Christ Himself would be “maligned” and “rejected” from Congress as a “radical.”
“If Christ himself walked through these doors and said what he said thousands of years ago ― that we should love our neighbor and our enemy, that we should welcome the stranger, fight for the least of us, that it is easier… for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into a kingdom of heaven ― he would be maligned as a radical and rejected from these doors,” Ocasio-Cortez pontificated.
AOC went on to claim that discrimination against trans people is unChristian and that “White supremacists have [used Christianity to justify bigotry], those who justified slavery did it, those who fought against integration did it and we’re seeing it today.”
In fact, it is the left and the bullying LGBT lobby that use Christianity, as AOC did, to justify bigotry against Christians, not the other way around.
