All humans should be treated as such and never less than or loved. The thing people are afraid of will always be a problem. It is not homosexuality. It is the fear of those who have a mental illness who violate others. Look in the news here in Tn. Some guy. Put a camera in the women’s bathroom a predator. Crime has no gender no sexaul preferace it is to make fear dominate control and force. Transcended people just had surgery to make their outside match their in. No same in a human not wanting to live a lie being someone they ate not.

I’m Christian and I do not support gay marriage because I believe Biblically, marriage is between a man and a woman. HOWEVER, people such as this have the right to live life how they see fit. Mental illness is no joke, who are we to deny a person treatment? Mental health counselors know that they must work with a very diverse population, LGBTIQ included! #socialworkerinthemaking

As a trained counselor, this bill is in direct conflict with our professional code of ethics. If clergy can be allowed religious freedom to perform their duties according to the tenets of their faith, then why is it okay to force another profession to go against what amounts to its own tenets of faith?

I am a therapist and mortified by this attempt to codify bigotry!
