  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I have a hard time seeing how that could be part of an approved treatment plan for gender dysphoria, He would probably have to wait until he was eighteen.

Likewise, they ought not to cut his penis off unless they consider his present condition psychologically dangerous, The penis isn't "cut off" anyway. You ought to look into how it's done.
Okay split open and peeled back or whatever. The end result is no penis

Some of them know how to use a gun so should we teach all of them how to use guns?
Just because some know about something it's not an excuse to start teaching it
If they know how to use guns, or are around people who use guns, isn't it a good idea that they should learn something about guns and gun safety?
These kids are of an age where at least some of their schoolmates are sexually active, and some of them will already be LGB or T, active or not. Shouldn't all kids know something about it? What's the point in trying to keep the existence of LGBT kids a secret?

Gosh. I guess all the religious people who freak out over anything they deem deviant will not be voting for him. Shocker.
Pardon the extreme plagiarism.....

And if all involved are satisfied with the results, what's your gripe?

They're not satisfied in the long run
Ten to 15 years after surgical reassignment, the suicide rate of those who had undergone sex-reassignment surgery rose to 20 times that of comparable peers.

Define "peers" in the context of this study.

I can just see it now.....these 'trans-gendered' persons as adults screaming at their parents; asking them.....no demanding answers from them as to why, as parents, they let them as children go thru with these permanent and disfiguring medical procedures.....that they were supposed to protect them from making stupid and childish decisions instead of supporting and even encouraging them to do so. You want to talk about a lot of dysfunctional families....well.....we are seeing the seeds for that being sown right now.

Tell us you don’t know how the process works without telling us you don’t know how the process works.

If his parents and his doctors think it's the right thing for him, then it's not mutilation any more than it would be if they took his appendix out.
Change “cutting penis off” with “being sexually active at 9” and see if that still works.

So you think because you think yours is right, yours should be legislated? What if a radical fundamentalist from any other religion who also thought their religion was the right one (as most people don’t follow religions they believe to be wrong) started imposing their values legally?
I don’t care if they practice their religion, though I would hope that they’d convert to Christianity. However, our laws should be based on God’s word, and not various forms of paganism. I would think you’d agree.

I would, but I need to go to my cabal of evil people conspiring together to give me a hysterectomy.
Since you are apparently under age, we will have to visit your membership. You must be at least 13.

Could you please be more specific?
Ok.

You clearly don’t know how the process to get gender affirming surgery works but would like us to believe you do.

See, that's it. They're "evil." As a medical person you could make an argument that they were just wrong to do it, but it would have to be on a case-by-case basis. You could also, as a Christian, easily make the case that they are sinners. But to say they are "evil" implies some further sinister motivation or objective on their part. That's the part we are having a hard time seeing.
I didn’t say they were evil for evil’s sake. Good grief.

So only so-called gender dysphoria can be treated with reassignment? That is pretty shallow thinking.

Well that must be the secret. I’m in my mid 40s and I need a hysterectomy but the process to get it has taken well over a year and a half. Apparently if I’m 13, they just hand them out to everybody. No screening. No nothing. An idle wish and, blam, out comes the uterus.

OK, so you can't be more specific because YOU have no concept of how things work so you project your own ignorance of a subject onto others.....you could have just said that and we would both be just fine.
