'Betrayed the central tenet of Easter': Reactions to Biden's Easter trans day proclamation

Andrew T. Walker 

Andrew T. Walker, an associate professor of Christian ethics and public theology at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, asserted that the coincidence of the day falling on Easter Sunday is irrelevant.

Walker, who is also a fellow at the Washington-based think tank Ethics and Public Policy Center, argues that the Biden administration had a choice not to celebrate the “Transgender Day of Visibility.” 

“What matters is that our ‘Catholic’ President and his staff knew it would be controversial for it to fall on Easter and decided that appeasing the far-Left and offending Christians was an acceptable trade-off,” Walker wrote in a Saturday X post. “There is no law mandating that they recognize a clown world holiday. They chose to do so and are deserving of criticism.” 

“‘Transgender Day of Visibility’ is just the Biden administration’s celebration of resurrection through desecration,” the professor added in a follow-up tweet. “Mutilate the body, and it will arise anew, their false prophets say.”
