He is having mercy on trans kids. Far more than anyone who thinks encouraging their delusions and removing parts of their bodies is helping them.
Just finished reading a book from the 50s where a side-character, a bishop, is relentlessly mocked for only supporting the worst criminals for forgiveness, ignoring their crimes, and the worse they are the more likely he is to support them. It was a mockery of current progressives in a nutshell, including treating it as the other side of the coin of sensationalist tabloids cynically appealing to base human emotions for a profit.

You can make bits of the Bible mean anything you want if you take them completely out of context. For example:
2 Kings 2:23-24
"He went up from there to Bethel, and while he was going up on the way, some small boys came out of the city and jeered at him, saying, "Go up, you baldhead! Go up, you baldhead!" ...and he cursed them in the name of the Lord. Then two female bears came out of the woods and tore forty-two of the boys."
Without any context, or knowledge of the Bible, imagine what you could make of that.
He went up from there to Bethel; and as he was going up by the way, there came forth young lads out of the city, and mocked him, and said to him, Go up, you baldy; go up, you baldhead. He looked behind him and saw them, and cursed them in the name of Tʜᴇ Lᴏʀᴅ. There came forth two she-bears out of the wood, and mauled forty-two lads of them.

"God, in his promises to hear our prayers, is desirous to bestow Himself upon us; if you find anything better than Him, ask it; but if you ask anything beneath Him, you put an affront upon Him, and hurt yourself by preferring to Him a creature which He framed: Pray in the spirit and sentiment of love, in which the royal prophet said to Him, 'Thou, O Lord, are my portion.' Let others choose to themselves portions among creatures, for my part, You are my portion, You alone I have chosen for my whole inheritance." -- St. Augustine of Canterbury
