Preferred pronouns — Mike cannot use false pronouns because it constitutes dishonest support of a delusion

Mike wrestles with the tension between honesty and compliance with authority. He says he cannot personally use false pronouns because it feels like unjustifiable lying — supporting a harmful delusion. He acknowledges the practical stakes: possible job loss, conflict with authority. He frames it as honoring God at personal cost rather than a political statement, but admits he is still wrestling and will not dictate to others.
