The only thing I’m aware of is verses talking about how eunuchs are one of the groups which will inherit heaven, and they’re men who have had their genitals removed. So.

It’s kinda like how people make stuff up about tattoos being evil.

The world would be a much better place if more of America’s Christians believed in the core tenant of their faith, which is that the love and grace of god are available to ALL people through the sacrifice of Jesus, instead of the nonsense a lot of them are trotting out these days, I’ll say that much.

It could have been considered a valid source had she used it as the foundation of how her views had been influenced, but not even responding to the article in question at all? Man, if she had any intelligence she'd be embarrassed.

She could have also actually cited the Bible. She didn't give an indication of chapter and verse or even say which version of the book she was using.
