ezs note:  I ran across Rev. Ed Trevors and got a breath of fresh air.  Most of what passes off as 'Christianity' is pure crap.  We may not see every line side to side (he is a [real] Christian, I am a Baha'i), but, geez, this guy is good. I'll do my bit to promote him.

A North Carolina school district told educators to ‘out’ trans students. Can they refuse?

Carthage, NC (Moore county seat)

please press: www.usatoday.com 

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.
