This was a poor pastor.  There is a time and place for this discussion and this wasn't it.  Furthermore, SCOTUS has ruled on abortion and gay marriage if that's what she's referring to as LGBTABATMAN rights.  So she's barking up the wrong tree.
She was on The View via remote video.  The View just gushed with admiration for her.  Not once did they question the appropriateness or propriety of using her public appearance the way she chose.

the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.

According to scripture, the terms bishop, pastor and elder refer to different roles but can refer to the same person.  In most cases, the terms are interchangeable.

Quote
In contrast to the complicated hierarchies of some denominations, if we
pay close attention to the biblical data, I would propose that the terms
elder, bishop/overseer, and pastor refer to the same office of church
leader and are interchangeable. The term elder emphasizes the general
nature of church leadership being one of maturity and wisdom, the term
bishop/overseer references the function of the church leader being one
who oversees the church, and the term pastor (i.e., shepherd) refers to
the method or process by which the leader leads the people of God.

So what should you call your church leader? Feel free to call him bishop,
or pastor, or elder. They are technically all one in the same.
