im pretty sure Paxton isnt pro transgender, doesn’t support Abortion for starters. you are criticizing Christian voters for opposing Talarico when all of his positions are opposed to Christian beliefs…right ?
Edit to add, not arguing with you just surprised that you’d be surprised Christian voters would be opposed to Talarico, the guy is pretty radical.

Oh lord, I am diving in.
The 'six genders' claim is, from what have seen, actually a comment on how there are six sexes. It was from 5 or so years ago and he was arguing about a proposed bill by pointing out that there is more than XX and XY.
Go look up what XX and XY mean now.
Reality is that there is more than those two combinations. They are uncommon, but exist as a biological reality.
This isn't a 'woke' claim...it's just science.
Paxton recently basically released a child rapist, was impeached by his own 17ing party through trial, has cheated on his wife, and pled out for securities fraud
He has decades long history of corruption.
It is bonkers that Paxton has power and a chance to help lead the country.
The dude has shown over and over that he is unethical...he literally took an ethics course as part of his plea out for the securities fraud.
The hyperfocus outrage on sex and gender is exhausting.
17ing Paxton type people stick around as a result of being able to whip enough people into an emotional tizzy over biological realities or over someone viewing themselves as different from their sex.
It's pathetic.
Paxtons Positions aren’t openly protransgender and pro abortion. The end.
Saying your are a Christian and being a Christian are totally separate things.
Talarico “acts” closer to the teachings of Christ than Paxton could ever possibly be.
But he says the right buzz words and the seals clap.

Gonna have to disagree there Pars, Talaricos openly endorsing some truly repulsive things.
Name them
And name the things Paxton has actually done
He was impeached by his own party.
a republican in Texas during this maga madness was impeached by his own party

JT running around telling people god is non binary.
yes that’s true but that’s not what he’s saying: he’s playing a part to try and get both sides of the votes. Aka he’s lying.
Yeah, if you prioritize voting for a guy that has years and years of documented ethics violations, adultery, and more because the simple existence of transgender people is what infuriates you...then Paxton is your guy.
I won't be surprised if you continue to reference '6 genders', despite knowing it is not just out of context, but flat out incorrect.
Running around? He said it 5 years ago. Hardly 'running around saying it'. If he is running around saying this now, that's news.
I grew up understanding that God is spiritual in nature and not of human form and that 'He' is commonly used in Scripture due to historical and cultural reality that men wrote the Books, ran Christianity, and were basically in charge overall.
Is this somehow an extreme position? It seems quite tame and reasonable.
He parroted every bs woke talking point. He couldn't keep his mouth shut or just ignore total nonsense that sounded idiotic to the non-woke then and sounds monumentally stupid and cringey 5 years' on. 
Again, you take refuge in the refuge of a small mind. In your case, a VERY small mind. Arguing against yourself is very simple minded.
Good lord, I just looked Paxton up. My only beef with him was that Trump endorsed him in violation of Reagan’s prime commandment. Since Trump negated that,Paxton was overwhelmingly impeached in TEXAS? That guy in normal times is completely unelectable. That goes for anyone who tried to violently overturn the results of an election too. Since these aren’t normal times…..
Next thing you are gonna tell me is you’d vote for graham platner over Susan Collins?
I've already expressed my views on Paxton and I'm not remotely interested in discussing who is the most Christ-like politician.
People traveled to DC to stop the certification of the election so it could be overturned.Violently overturn
Violence was widely used to intimidate and gain access to Congress.
The attempts to revise history and claim it wasn't violent is shameful. Members of Congress have said on record they fled in fear of their lives. Police were attacked and have said on record they weren't sure if they would be live through the violent day.
It really isnt a wild position for Christians.
- Being 'pro trans', which I guess means being supportive of trans rights and equality, directly aligns with the general overall tenets of Christianity.
Gender identity has nothing to do with Christianity. Someone identifying as trans is of not going against Christianity in general, just like someone identifying as cis-gendered is not going against Christianity in general.
- Being 'pro abortion', which I guess means being supportive of a woman's right to choose whether to carry a pregnancy to term, is heavily supported by Christians in the US. Countless Christians think abortion should be legal in 'all or most cases'.
In reality, the issue is split amongst Christians.
The Pew chart below is a collection of over 35,000 Christian's views from all 50 states.
Talarico walks back comments on religion and gender after Paxton's win
James Talarico appears to walk back some of his comments on religion that have become a line of attack in his race for the Texas Senate seat against Ken Paxton.

So you are just using a black child to make your point for you? That’s racist.
For anyone that is actually triggered by my response...this is a well known gif that is not typically used for actual racist issues/comments. Its for humor.
Duh, he's a scumbag too is my point. Why ask what my point is when you state it yourself?
Scumbags to the left of me... scumbags to the right of me.... sounds like I'm in DC

Trans people have the same rights as everyone else. Fact.
the Bible is pretty clear about homosexuality and men and women.
just bc I don’t want Men in women’s sports or in women’s changing rooms doesn’t mean I hate trans people. It also doesn’t mean I can’t say it’s mental illness to want to cut your body parts off.
Let’s play a game. Can you say “biological males can’t get pregnant”?
I don't even know where this is going. I've never in my life heard anyone disagree or take issue with the objective biological fact that transwomen ("biological men" in your framing) do not have the necessary organs to get pregnant. You will not find a single person on this board who pushes back on this statement.
But what does he really believe? He wants to get elected so he's no longer parroting woke talking points.Talarico walks back comments on religion and gender after Paxton's win

But you'll find an avoidance of the term men in wider society even in the medical industry and research literature. For such people, the preferred term to mothers and pregnant women is "pregnant people." The trans thing is a really weird one for Dems and libs to fixate on to the degree they do. I have no idea how many trans people for instance have genuine gender dysphoria and have a sense of self different from their biological sex. I do know there's such a thing as autogynephelia, something a not-insignificant number of transwomen, biological men, have along with austims, mental issues that can explain some of this. There have been a number of detransitioners and the number of young people identifying as trans has declined suggesting there is a social contagion component to identifying as trans or some other gender identity. Anyway, for some reason, Dems are really insistent that biological males who go through male puberty must be allowed to participate in women's sports the minute they claim to be women. That just strikes me as a bizarre, absolute position to have.
What in the balls are you talking about?...you are just going further off the rails while thinking you are making awesome points.
- Some states have recently removed discrimination protection for housing, employment, and more.
That means a landlord can evict a tenant for being trans.
- You brought up homosexuality, but that is different from being trans.
...you do know those are different things...right?
Gender identity has nothing to do with Christianity. A person can be a non-binary practicing Christian and nothing bad happens. They are simply a person practicing Christianity amongst others in the church.
There is no harm. There is no conflict.
- I don't know why you are bringing up womens sports, bathrooms, or changing rooms. Those aren't religious issues. Those are social issues.
I have not claimed or suggested you hate trans people either, so you saying you don't hate them isn't needed.
- Biological males can't get pregnant.
What do I win for saying that?
