ezs note:  North Carolinians (and other conservative states) - one way you can change things is to VOTE. Every election.  From President down to dog catcher.  Another way is to present another view.  Let's say your parents are conservative Christians.  Well, there is another side.  If you haven't checked it out yet, I suggest that you try Ed Trevors.  He's an Anglican priest who is unabashedly Christian and unabashedly accepting.  Either tell them about him,  or surreptitiously 😅 slip it into their computer.

ezs note:  I do hate to rain on Mr. Kluge's parade, but there is a Christian school in the very same town!  While I do respect Christian values, (even though I strongly disagree with the particulars)  if you're gonna teach in a public school, there are certain standards which you have to follow.  And you didn't. And you got fired.

Good.
