On the Streets of Babylon: Gender Non-Binary Clergy Spotted on the Streets

Babylon is fallen, is fallen,..
 Come out of her, my people,

Revelation 14:8/18:4
 
There seems to be some  "gender non-binary clergy" spotted on the Streets of Babylon...

"An increasing number of individuals who identify as “gender non-binary” have emerged among the clerical ranks in mainline Protestant denominations.
Following the ordination of transgender clergy in the United States, non-binary clergy appear to be the next wave of sex and gender revisionism.

According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, non-binary is relating to or being a person who identifies with or expresses a gender identity that is neither entirely male nor entirely female.
In the United Methodist Church, The Rev. M. Barclay is the first non-binary transgender individual to be commissioned and to be ordained a deacon.
The Rev. Anna Blaedel is another member of the United Methodist clergy who identifies as queer and uses “they/them” pronouns.
Another notable member of the non-binary clergy is Jess Cook. Cook was the first non-binary Minister of the Word and Sacrament to be ordained in the Presbyterian Church (USA) in June of 2019.
In the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), Megan Rohrer is a pastor and writer.  In 2006, Rohrer was ordained and became “the first openly transgender/non-binary person to be ordained by the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.” 
 In the United Church of Christ, according to the UCC 2019 Statistical Profile, 0.2% of ordained ministers are transgender/gender variant. Among the commissioned ministers, 0.9% are transgender/gender-variant."
