When I founded Conservapedia, 17 years ago, I did so because I believed the mainstream media was misleading the public. I was wrong. I've realized since that mainstream newsmedia and academic coverage, while imperfect, is far preferable to anything we can serve up by relying on partisan far-right sources. And as I've explored my gender and sexuality in recent years, I've realized that the Christian nationalist environment I was raised in, by a mother obsessed with restricting the rights of women and LGBTQ+ people, both denied me the chance to understand myself, and led me on a long path of perpetuating hatred against some of our society's most vulnerable members in a decidedly un-Christian fashion.

As our country faces an onslaught of hatred against minorities and oppressed groups, and the prospect of the return to the presidency of a serial rapist, hater of religious liberty, and bigot, I've looked to the writings of Frank Schaeffer, like me a scion of the religious right who was led to question his upbringing. Schaeffer writes that the motivating force behind conservative Christian theology is desire to repress women's sexuality. The only extent to which I disagree with him is that I think he fails to account for the desire to repress the sexuality of non-binary people and men who have sex with men. These perverse fixations of the religious right bring us farther away from God every day.

I will be sunsetting this wiki in 168 hours, with profound apologies to those we have wronged—those <em>I</em> have wronged. I would like to close with this note, remedying the greatest miscarriage of the truth we have perpetrated:

<p style="font-size:125%;">Trans rights are human rights. And trans children's rights matter most of all. We cannot as Christians allow them to be denied what they need to be safe, healthy, and happy. I hope that in this New Year, my fellow siblings in Christ can join me in recognizing this.</p>
