Colorado Republican lawmaker Gordon
Klingenschmitt has proposed an exorcism for Caitlyn Jenner to rid her
of the demonic “spirit of insanity.”
Voters in 2014 elected Klingenschmitt,
a Christian conservative strongly opposed to LGBT rights, to the
Colorado House.
In his latest Pray in Jesus Name
YouTube program, Klingenschmitt responded to rumors that Jenner is
planning to transition back to male. (A
claim Jenner has denied.)
“[I]t would be a dumb statement for
someone to try to say that he wants to stay a woman, because he's not
a woman,” Klingenschmitt
told his audience. “He's never been one. His DNA has never
changed. He still has male XY chromosomes. He is not a woman. He
is a man. In fact, he still has male parts, I'm told.”
“The spirit of insanity inside this
man, Bruce Jenner” has made Jenner choose sin and “has brought
him down a path of destruction,” Klingenschmitt said. “It is a
mental illness. Of course, we think it is a demonic illness. The
man needs an exorcism.”
