There was a statistic that I saw that said only 4% of trans youth still attempt or commit suicide with family support.

"with family support"

this sounds very scientific

I don't see how passing judgment on someone because of their race, sexual preference, gender, etc is any different than passing judgment because of someone's religion. No matter what you think about Christianity, lumping everybody who has a certain faith together as all being close-minded bigots isn't fair or correct.

eh, I'd argue it's different because race/sex/gender are all things that you're born into, whereas religion is something you choose. It's always more 'fair' to criticize someone over something they can control/choose than something they can't

(I do agree with your general point though. I still find it weird that a large portion of this nation can be so sensitive to the separation between muslims/jihadists yet act like all Christians are basically the WBC.)
