The Tasmanian Greens draft legislation to ban sexual and gender orientation conversion practices in the state – known as conversion therapy – is now under threat, after Deputy Premier Guy Barnett wrote to anti-trans group Women Speak Tasmania saying the legislation could outlaw conversations between families or prayer.

There's a clear difference between a conversation at home and paying someone to torture your child.

Conversion therapy should be banned.

If your prayers demand you be a bigoted anti trans piece of trash it's time you rethought your diety. Any maximally good diety would be judging your hatefulness, so you are praying your God will strike you down, or you are praying to a hateful petty god.

I really enjoyed the last conversation I had with a Christian about this topic... He did not.
