As a Christian, I can tell you that is not a Christian sentiment at all, that is hate. Jesus preached to love your neighbor, not condemn them and toss them aside. It is through unconditional love that we are to show people what we stand for. Just look at who Jesus hung out with: prostitutes, tax collectors, and other social outcasts. No wonder why he was unpopular at the time.
It is so disheartening to see people proclaim themselves as Christian and not understanding and living its core values. I don't care whether or not the Bible says it's a sin. Sinner or not, that doesn't affect how I treat people. It is a tragedy when anyone is targeted by bullying, and it hurts even more because of their death. We should be pushing for change to give trans people safety, not casting them aside. That is what a real Christian would do. "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."
Big fan of genocides that one. Also a lot of straight up lies in the bible. There's no evidence the israelites fled from the pharohs in egypt, for instance.
We are a religious state and we are going to fight it to keep that filth out of the state of Oklahoma because we are a Christian state — we are a moral state. We want to lower taxes and let people be able to live and work and go to the faith they choose.

I fucking hate my state. And country. I just want to leave.
I swear growing up there were all these positive things about our country. But as I continue growing up those positive things started being unmasked and all the ugliness started to become apparent. And trump has brought all that ugliness out of the underbelly into the daylight. It's depressing.
This stuff, right here, is why I have distanced myself so hard from the Christian church. They feel like a hate group now, and it's depressing. None of these people behave the way I was taught to.
Ah yes, just like Jesus said in the New Testament...
And Jesus said to his followers, "screw all the trans teens for they are filth, and murdering them is totally okay. Especially in Oklahoma." -Bubba the Bigot, 7:12
Seriously though, these pieces of shit should stop referring to themselves as 'followers of Christ'. They are disgraces to the human race.
Oh man has he never read his own state's Constitution?
"no inhabitant of the State shall ever be molested in person or property on account of his or her mode of religious worship; and no religious test shall be required for the exercise of civil or political rights." source
Also the word "Christ" or "Christian" never shows up in the state Oklahoma Constitution, so I'm not sure where he's getting his "Christian state" idea from except possibly out of his own ass.
It goes even further to exclude state money from going to religious purposes:
"No public money or property shall ever be appropriated, applied, donated, or used, directly or indirectly, for the use, benefit, or support of any sect, church, denomination, or system of religion, or for the use, benefit, or support of any priest, preacher, minister, or other religious teacher or dignitary, or sectarian institution as such." source
