Rays players make ‘faith-based decision’ to shun Pride Night logos
Most, but not all, Rays show their LGBTQ+ support With rainbow-colored logos added to their jerseys and caps for Pride Night, players had to make a choice about opting in. - "Adam, chosen by team officials to speak for the players who opted out, said it was primarily a matter of religious beliefs and not wanting to encourage the 'behavior' of those in the LGBTQ+ community.
"'A lot of it comes down to faith, to like a faith-based decision,' Adam said. 'So it’s a hard decision. Because ultimately we all said what we want is them to know that all are welcome and loved here. But when we put it on our bodies, I think a lot of guys decided that it’s just a lifestyle that maybe — not that they look down on anybody or think differently — it’s just that maybe we don’t want to encourage it if we believe in Jesus, who’s encouraged us to live a lifestyle that would abstain from that behavior, just like (Jesus) encourages me as a heterosexual male to abstain from sex outside of the confines of marriage. It’s no different.
"'It’s not judgmental. It’s not looking down. It’s just what we believe the lifestyle he’s encouraged us to live, for our good, not to withhold. But again, we love these men and women, we care about them, and we want them to feel safe and welcome here.'" [ed. note: lol these broken people]
