On Friday, the baseball team held \u201c<\/span>Pride Night<\/span>,\u201d dedicating the game to a \u201ccelebration of Pride and the LGBTQIA+ community\u201d that included \u201cpregame festivities, in-game celebrations, and appearances.\u201d The event featured same-sex couples renewing their marriage vows on the field in the presence of a drag queen, and the team celebrated the LGBTQ community <\/span>through rainbow-colored hats<\/span>, according to FOX.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A few players, however, took a stand \u2014 including Landen Roupp, who was raised in rural North Carolina and attended a private Christian school. Before heading to the mound, he inscribed the Bible passage from Genesis 9 on his cap.<\/span><\/p>\n

The verses describe God\u2019s promise to Noah and all future generations that he would never again destroy the earth with a flood, with the rainbow serving as the sign of that covenant.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd God said, \u2018This is the sign of the covenant that I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations: I have set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth. When I bring clouds over the earth, and the bow is seen in the clouds, I will remember my covenant that is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh. And the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. When the bow is in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.’\u201d Genesis 9:12-16<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

An article from The Athletic <\/span>expressed outrage<\/span> over their decision, saying the Bible verses \u201cmissed the point\u201d\u00a0 during a night that was \u201csupposed to be dedicated to support and belonging.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After the game, Roupp said his Biblical gesture reflected his moral convictions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Why was it important to write that verse tonight?<\/p>\n

ROUPP: \u201cThe rainbow is a symbol of God\u2019s covenant to us, and us as believers stand firm in that\u2026 There\u2019s no hate at all.\u201d<\/p>\n

What would say if somebody considered that derogatory toward them as a community?<\/p>\n

\u201cThe rainbow is a symbol of God\u2019s covenant with us, and we as believers stand firm in that \u2026 There\u2019s no hate at all,\u201d he told reporters. \u201cIt\u2019s just what I stand for and what I stand in, I believe in God.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhat would you say if somebody considered that derogatory toward them as a community?\u201d a reporter asked him.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAs a believer, I would push them to read the Bible. God has blessed me in so many ways, and I don\u2019t think I\u2019d be here right now if it wasn\u2019t for Him.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Roupp was not alone. His pitch reliever, Sam Hentges, refused to wear the hat at all, for a very similar reason.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t morally support it,\u201d <\/span>he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

A recent Gallup poll showed that Roupp and Hentges are not alone, revealing declining support for LGBTQ+ issues across the board.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The poll said same-sex marriage support dropped to 65%, which is down 6 points, and moral acceptance of gay\/lesbian relations stood at 62% \u2014 the lowest since 2016.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The decline in support was driven largely by Republicans, with only 35% approving of same-sex marriage, the lowest level since 2011. The percentage of Americans who view gender transitions as morally acceptable also fell to 38%.<\/span><\/p>\n
