“Peter Tefft, my son, is not welcome at our family gatherings any longer.
I pray my prodigal son will renounce his hateful beliefs and return home.
Then and only then will I lay out the feast.
“His hateful opinions are bringing hateful rhetoric to his siblings, cousins, nieces and nephews as well as his parents.
Why must we be guilty by association?
Again, none of his beliefs were learned at home.
We do not, never have, and never will, accept his twisted worldview.”
