Is the venerable but shrinking Church of England possessed by a rainbow trans demon? Evidence suggests that it is.
The declining denomination's decision makers, meeting in York, have voted four to one in favor of the small but influential Church adopting special trans naming ceremonies.
These are worship rituals which celebrate and bless the new identity of a transsexual, including their name. For example, when Stephanie becomes Steve, she gets a blessing and so does Steve, when he fluidly transitions to Stephani.
While the small and getting smaller Church of England encourages people to have sex changes by blessing the transition, it draws short at calling the new rituals Baptism.
According to the BBC, “Such a service would not be a second baptism, however, as the Church’s teaching is that humans are made in the image of God – transcending gender – and baptism takes place only once.”
While equality advocates deplore the tiny denomination's refusal to fully acknowledge the new identity of transpersons by Baptism, they're encouraged by the Church's ban on "conversion therapy." The York Synod has even asked the UK's government to take steps to forbid the practice:
The Church of England has called on the government to ban conversion therapy and has condemned the practice, which aims to change sexual orientation, as unethical and potentially harmful.
Because the ancient but badly attended Church of England is possessed by a rainbow trans demon, persons of the gender fluid hive collective don't need conversion therapy when they get their sex change.
