Daily Wire host Matt Walsh blasted mainstream churches for their “milquetoast” and “lukewarm” response to transgender ideology at a Wednesday TPUSA panel with Charlie Kirk, declaring that some have essentially become “LGBT cult” institutions rather than Christian houses of worship.
During the panel, Walsh expressed that mainstream churches’ failure to oppose transgender ideology wasn’t just an oversight, but “a deliberate choice” and “a deliberate surrender,” despite the Church’s role as “the vanguard against this kind of evil.”
“I wish … that I could say we were asleep at the wheel because if you fall asleep at the wheel, it’s not necessarily your fault. That’s something that happens accidentally,” Walsh said.
Matt Walsh tells how the biggest problem about transgenderism is that the church is milquetoast and lukewarm about the subject, right up to the pastor. Some even can be considered an LGBT cult.@mattwalshshow @mattwalshblog @Charliekirk11 pic.twitter.com/6ixm5tKZlV

Walsh recounted his experiences fighting transgender ideology from 2016 through 2021, noting the absence of religious leaders alongside him. “I was more likely to look over to my side and see a liberal feminist standing with me on this issue than a Christian pastor,” he said.
When pastors did address him, Walsh noted it was often to “condemn me for being too rude, for being too mean.” His response: “You don’t like my approach, what’s your alternative? Because your approach is nothing.”
Walsh blasted “woke churches” displaying rainbow flags, “If you have a rainbow in your church, it better be a part of some art display that references Noah’s Ark, because the rainbow flag is anathema, it is heresy.”
Still, the more significant problem than “woke churches,” according to Walsh, is the “milquetoast, lukewarm” churches that avoid addressing transgender ideology. These establishments might not say anything necessarily “wrong,” in Walsh’s view, but “it’s what’s not being said” that is of bigger concern.
The panel was hosted in Atlanta by Real America’s Voice, and streamed on TPUSA’s platforms.
