You mean, the same traditional religion which has oppressed women since time immemorial? Seriously? (She claims to support "women's rights", see [[../../03|entry for 3 August]]...)

* '''Claim''': Bad things happen when you get rid of traditional religion
** '''No,''' they don't. People get on with their lives and make better decisions.
* '''Claim''' (implied): It's a religion to believe that trans women are women.
** '''No.'''
*** The idea that trans women are well within the scope of womanhood is backed by science.
*** The idea that trans women should be legally treated as women is backed by science.
* '''Claim''': People need some kind of religion for moral guidance.
** '''No.''' That argument was ''thoroughly'' refuted back in the early 2000s.

Looking at this from a larger perspective, she's (intentionally or not) revealing the role of "traditional religion" in maintaining the status quo: basically, ''"If traditional religion loses its hold on the public, they'll start getting crazy ideas about '''improving society''', and that's '''not okay'''."'' (There are few things that social conservatives dislike more than "improving society".)
