As I was playing with the plot of the prompt that I've chosen for the
lgbtfest, my brain went into the weird direction of religion... as in what are the Marvel-verse version of various common American religious denominations stands on mutants?
Frankly, I think it's going to follow whatever that religion's take on women and gays are, with the take on mutants being the far outlier.
Which means that the Unitarians, Metropolitan Community Church, and the United Church of Christ are probably the most welcoming churches for mutants, that Reform Judaism is the same for Jewish mutants, (and what for Muslims? I'm lost there, really). The Episcopalians are splitting over the issue, and the Catholic Church has a stance of "it's all right to *be* a mutant, if you never do anything with your abilities and don't mind being a second-class member and possibly barred from religious orders".
And canonically we have the Stryker movement, which is some kind of disturbing fundmentalist evangelical Christianity that preaches hate at its core.
