Naperville, Ill.-based anti-gay activist Peter LaBarbera appeared on a Christian radio program Jan. 2 and disparaged, among others, Good Morning America host Robin Roberts, who publically came out in December.
While a guest on Voice of Christian Youth America’s Crosstalk, LaBarbera said that “every coming out is a tragedy,” advocate.com reported.
LaBarbera also said that trans individuals “are people who believe that their biological sex, male or female, doesn’t match what they feel … Satan really works through feelings, doesn’t he?”
The host of the program, Vic Eliason, later characterized trans people as “freaks.”
