| #ReversePetitionForPositiveSocialChange What if one petition could open millions of minds and hearts to cherish and affirm “rainbow” (LGBTQIPoly++) persons? People don’t change their hearts without changing their minds. At the heart of most phobia is a misunderstanding of religion. A majority of Americans claim some sort of biblical faith. It’s time to set the record straight about not being straight. Why is this called a “Reverse Petition”? In a normal petition, a mass ground-swell of people appeals to one resource for social change. In this Reverse Petition, one resource appeals to each person in a mass ground-swell for social change. We can’t even begin to imagine the number of people who’ll be welcoming and affirming, once they know that God’s not phobic! How can you change the bible belt into the bible fabulous? 1. Visit www.SermonHeardRoundTheWorld.com and see the free resource you’re sharing. Proving from the bible that God is not phobic, it’s something anyone can print and share with religious friends and family members. OK, so at least skim past all that technical bible stuff they’d like, to see the conclusions at the end you’d like. 2.

Check back in a week to see if they’ve read it yet and ask them to continue to spread this Reverse Petition. Please don’t let it die out. NOTE: You might be atheist, agnostic or shaman. This is not about your beliefs. It’s about theirs. Within a pluralistic respect for their right to have their beliefs, you can show them their avowed foundations of their beliefs do not require them to be phobic. Even if they’re not convinced of all conclusions therein (such as Poly or Charismatic), their conceding on basic points of identity and orientation could make Thanksgiving dinner more pleasant.
