The vote on O15 today at the #PCAGA (the annual General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in America) is painfully disheartening and undeniable proof the denomination as a whole is dealing with profoundly ugly homophobia. Here is the text that was approved by a 54% majority:

This thread tho 😳
I was invited to give an MLK speech today and a small number of members of the group hosting me wrote and then leaked emails opposing my giving this speech, as it dishonored Dr. King for me to do so. They called me a "discredited activist" "unworthy of such association with King"
