Warren later contemplated the notion of faith and how it holds strong influences on people's beliefs about the LGBTQ community. It's not the people but rather the faith that conditions them to think in a certain way. During the show, she recited a poem she first learned while like a child in Oklahoma, “They are yellow, black and white. They are precious in his sight. Jesus loves all the children of the world".

Warren expressed disappointment at the people of faith

She also reflected on her childhood days, she said that she gradually gained faith in community and her exposure was slow. There was less number of people who used to live in Oklahoma in those days. However, she further added, it was disappointing to witness how people of faith treated those of the community, she was shocked to see so much hate. She rather enlightened the crowd by saying that when people make decisions, it is always about them. Those decisions certainly don't guide others about their code of conduct, therefore that becomes their personal choice.
