@knittingknots2 I am so tired of the media perpetuating the myth that: "It's not surprising," Penny Edgell, professor in the sociology department at the University of Minnesota, tells Axios.
"If you're more progressive, you might look at religion and say that the mainstream religious institutions don't reflect my values," particularly when it comes to topics like LGBTQ+ inclusion, she says.” Perpetuating this false narrative is doing as much damage to inclusive mainstream denominations striving to live the Way of Jesus as the white-Christian nationalist churches are. Maybe more, since it’s often left leaning, liberal, progressive media with significant LGBTQ+ & minority audiences that are pushing it. Let me be clear: the #EpiscopalChurch welcomes everyone. #BishopBudde in her marvelous homily the day after the inauguration did indeed speak the beliefs & values & actions of #Episcopalians across the nation. I encourage everyone to visit us & see for themselves. #christian
In Episode 52, Jumelle reveals she is a biblical scholar after watching a Bishop make a plea to President Trump.

The artist is Jerome Stueart and you can find more information about them at the site at the bottom of this post. Please consider buying them a coffee or purchasing a copy of the print.

Fun fact if I have any followers from the US: Bishop Mariann Budde is a cousin of an editor for Sweden’s largest news paper. Thus I find this interview in my paper:
I had been working on this one for a few hours. I liked where it was and didn’t really see it going anywhere else, and I had a few other tracks I was developing a little more, so I just wrapped it up. Heard the bishop’s words on Inauguration Day and was so moved by them. Last second decided to throw them on the track. #newmusic #trump #bishopbudde #lgbtq #music #president #inauguration
People all around the world are standing with #BishopBudde in the face of Trump’s attacks. Let’s show the Bishop that we support her. #HaveMercy secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/...
She called Trump out
I just signed the petition from #Avaaz to show my support for Bishop Budde now that she is being attacked for asking the new U.S. president to show a little mercy in his administration.

There are pros and cons about petitions, such as it’s only armchair activism. In this case I wouldn’t know another way to show support to her, so I have signed. #BishopBudde #Mercy #uspol
¿Te has enterado de la historia de esta obispa que incomodó a Trump al señalarle su crueldad? Ahora se le han echado encima y hasta ha recibido amenazas de muerte.
He firmado esta campaña para demostrarle que el mundo apoya su valentía y su mensaje de compasión. ¿Te unes? https://secure.avaaz.org/campaign/es/bishop_under_trump_attacks_loc/?

"Sadly, it appears that over the next few years in the United States there will be many situations justifying and requiring parrhesia directed at the administration and American society as a whole. It remains to be seen if those who exercise a prophetic ministry are up to the challenge."
"Throughout the history of the Church, preachers and others have exercised parrhesia toward emperors, kings, nobles and others in power, sometimes paying for their courage with their lives."
And as Grimm notes,
"Parrhesia is not directed solely at secular power. The bishops and superiors who covered up the abuse of children and vulnerable people by clergy and other Church workers have faced parrhesia."
William Grimm comments on Bishop Mariann Budde's decision to speak uncomfortable to Trump's face:
"There is a category of rhetoric technically known by the Greek word parrhesia, usually defined in English as 'speaking truth to power.' The word conveys not only the right to speak truth to those who do not want to hear it but the duty to do so regardless of the cost."

『トランプ大統領は、移民を標的とした大統領令や、LGBTQ＋（性的少数者）保護策を後退させる大統領令に次々と署名。それを、誰も止めようとしませんでした。
だからこそ、マリアン・エドガー・バディ主教は、大統領就任の公式行事である礼拝において、新大統領に真実を伝えなければならないと感じたのです。命の危険にさらされ、おびえている米国中の人々に慈悲の心を示すように、と。以来、主教は殺害予告とトランプの怒りに直面しています。
そんな今こそ、行動を起こすべき時です。説教壇から、無慈悲な大統領に慈悲を乞うたバディ主教の勇気とメッセージを、世界中の大勢の人々が支持していることを伝えるのです。ぜひ、主教宛てのメッセージに賛同のご署名を。多数のご署名が集まり次第、バディ主教にご署名を直接手渡します。トランプ大統領から攻撃される主教に、国際世論は主教の味方であることを伝えるために。』

#BishopBudde spoke truth to fascism. The fascist didn't like it.
