I recently engaged with some folks on Twitter regarding the topic of Bruce Jenner’s recent speech at the ESPYS and wanted to post them here in hopes that they may help you engage with others on this topic. In addition to these tweets be sure to check out this RTRQ to hear what I would say to Bruce Jenner if I sat down with him for a few minutes.
It is a tragedy & a disservice to celebrate #BruceJenner in his mental illness & foolish to think highly of your self for doing it #ESPYS

When political correctness hurts people it is NOT correct, loving or magnanimous. #BruceJenner #ESPYS #professingtobewisetheybecamefools

.@IdahoSportsRyan No Mam, not at all. Luke 6 is completely true but thinking love means supporting someone's error is not loving or true.

.@hellyeahmaia Ina…can you share with me as a fellow follower of Christ, by using God's Word, where anything I said was "crazy ass"?

.@JoansPants Joan…hello again. I want to love people not "support" them. But endorsing every choice someone makes is not how to love.

.@bwstarr @psyvho I understand that is your position. As we discuss the wisdom of our different takes let's do it well & w/o calling it hate

.@iTokyoDavid Let's try and help each other Tokyo…if something is true no amount of scrutiny will affect it.

.@hellyeahmaia agreed…but we are talking about more than "being different" when we talk about contradicting what is real/true.

.@Jellybean897 @Court_Carlton @hellyeahmaia Who supports anti-gay bullying? Not loving children with grace AND truth is today's problem.

(Edit: Since this blog post was published @Jellybean897’s Twitter account has been deleted. Her original tweet said that my statements contributed to anti-gay bullying. The Tweet above is in reply to her Tweet.)
.@bwstarr @psyvho agreed…and we should tolerate everyone's opinion but not make "tolerance" mean every opinion is equally true.

.@JoansPants I support their right to choose & will defend them against any hate for that choice but cannot support their choice as wise.

Good for #BruceJenner that he acknowledges his struggle/mental illness-bad for him that his country celebrates it & awards him for it #ESPYS

.@ProtoAtheist here's one. http://t.co/eVV8XAMSs7 that doesn't make it right but since you asked. BTW Science changes…truth does not.

Heartbreaking. 15 year olds can't decide if they should drink, who to vote for or if they should smoke, but they can http://t.co/tuewM9Kgcj

A good reminder to us all…those changing common sense realities feel zero need to be consistent or logical. https://t.co/NbYZiLwMqJ
