A Texas pastor challenges the narrative that the Bible condemns trans people—claiming there are zero scriptural grounds for anti-trans beliefs. The panel explores whether this progressive stance holds up, the contradictions in Christian theology, and the deeper issue of using religion to justify exclusion. Can inclusion within faith ever be enough? Or is it time to leave the book behind entirely?

WHAT IS THE NON-PROPHETS?
The Non-Prophets is a internet show airing at 06:00pm Central time Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday each week. Where we navigate through current events, providing a secular viewpoint that adds depth to the unfolding narrative.
The Atheist Community of Austin is organized as a nonprofit educational corporation to develop and support the atheist community, to provide opportunities for socializing and friendship, to promote secular viewpoints, to encourage positive atheist culture, to defend the first amendment principle of state-church separation, to oppose discrimination against atheists and to work with other organizations in pursuit of common goals.
We define atheism as the lack of belief in gods. This definition also encompasses what most people call agnosticism.
