On March 27, 2023, a tragic incident transpired at The Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee—a mass shooting that resulted in multiple casualties. The alarmingly ubiquitous reality of such disturbances underlines the importance of trusted news outlets providing real news on events as they unfold for those who hold a Christian worldview.

The shooter was identified as Audrey Hale, an individual identifying as a transgender leftist. A ‘manifesto’ penned by Hale was kept away from public knowledge due to requests for confidentiality from the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department and Brent Leatherwood—the head of Southern Baptist Convention ERLC’s activism wing.

Recently, the full manuscript of the manifesto has been unveiled to the public. The contents are deeply troubling and leave one dumbfounded over why Leatherwood would strive to conceal it—particularly when considering the recent escalation in transgender-perpetrated school shootings.

The manifesto reveals Hale’s destructive mindstate. She expressed deep-seated resentment towards her father, termed him with derogatory language, and even voiced intentions of murdering him.

Despite being non-affluent and acknowledging her parents’ conscientious efforts to prevent homelessness, Hale fostered racial self-loathing due to their Caucasian descent—propagated by advocates championing left-wing critical race theory sentiments.

Hale exhibited explicit misanthropic behaviors: deriving pleasure from fantasies about performing lewd acts on young non-Caucasians while identifying as male; voicing vehemence towards Valentine’s day; believing finding love would only happen postmortem; legitimizing human fatalities rationalizing that “animals kill animals” and “bugs kill bugs”; seething rage when addressed with female pronouns; suspecting an underlying agenda between politically motivated gun violence arguments and firearm regulations.

Incomprehensibly struggling mentally despite any apparent LGBTQ+-friendly accommodation shown—like JD Greear’s promoting ‘pronoun hospitality,’ Audrey asserts she felt justified upon being addressed as male at a comic store but continued to loathe her physical form, even eyeballing ‘pronoun hospitality’ as deceitful.

In her manifesto, she also expressed the disturbing belief that she would assume a male body after death. Her disparagement towards God undeniably portrayed desperation and an unfortunate ignorance or outright denial of gospel truths.

This incident accentuates the need for real and trusted news outlets in disseminating occurrences from a Christian worldview, as well as addressing social issues linked to such events. Moreover, it emphasizes the criticality of conveying unequivocal truths in lieu of interim satisfactions like ‘pronoun hospitality.’ Only through faith in Jesus Christ leading to transformative salvation can individuals burdened by such torment truly find liberation. To quote Proverbs 8:35-36: “For whoever finds me finds life and obtains favor from the Lord, but he who fails to find me injures himself; all who hate me love death.” Audrey Hale’s manifestation of God hatred led her path inevitably toward death—an eternity that doesn’t offer escape.
