Mike Pence Doesn’t Get to Define Christianity

James Driscoll writes in the Washington Blade. Quote:

Vice President Mike Pence and Second Lady Karen Pence are expected to set a standard for America. Recently, Karen Pence resumed her employment in a school whose official policies systematically discriminate against LGBT Americans. Mike and Karen Pence excused this by claiming that condemnation of homosexuality is part of the Christian religion. Actually, it’s a social bias in violation of the religion’s ethical core, the Golden Rule. Cutting the Pences slack here sets a precedent that may be used to sanction more dangerous forms of anti-LGBT discrimination in the name of religion.
