  • 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.

Not unless someone wanted to share their experience but opinions vary on what is necessary.
Plenty of info was provided already HERE.

This is the same old worn out game where the 'show evidence, documentation, statistics, data' challenge is made.

Then the challenger dismisses it and keeps goading for evidence that was already presented.

That was pretty random. I'd suggest that your time is better spent searching for a single example of something you say happens all the time.
I don’t see how you think it was random. But I can’t help other’s comprehension.

So are you saying that you won't be able to find any examples we could discuss where you could show that an operation of some sort was done unnecessarily?
They all are. That has been my argument all along. And anyone who says otherwise is promoting evil.

But you have no details. If I said some child had a major medical procedure and asked if you thought that was wrong, then you wouldn't be able to tell me. You'd want to know the specific details. But you are saying the same thing. That a minor has had an operation and it was wrong - but with no details about it whatsoever.

So I want you to put up. If you have an example of a minor having an operation then let's hear about it. I'm waiting for a single example.

I guess you haven’t been paying attention. But it’s difficult in a thread like this, I admit.

Let’s pretend that there’s never been one. That would be cool. But if there a law that allows it, it’s evil because the surgery would be evil.

Any law that cannot be passed for the glory of God.
Did not ask you which laws are pagan, I asked you what paganism is the basis of our laws in your formulation.

I want one example. I don't want some figures on how many have been done. That's not what I want. We need to discuss an example where we can discuss the pros and conns of that one example. Just one. You keep saying that there have been many, but you can't even give me that. If you keep saying it's wrong then I'm going to keep asking for you to show me.

There is no such thing as 'evil surgery'. You say realignment operations have been performed on minors. So give me one example and we'll discuss it.

Please don't repeat nonsense. It doesn't make it less nonsensical. We're not going to pretend there aren't any. We're not going to pretend there will be none. They will continue. If someone needs genital surgery for whatever reason, be it gender based because there was a medical condition, because of an accident or disease then the relevant doctors will make that decision.

If you have an example that you want to discuss then put it forward. Whatever the reason, whatever the age. Otherwise your position is plain for everyone to see. It's a position whereby you complain about something happening but cannot even give one single example of it.

What a waste of time.

The study at Vanderbilt just links to another NR article.
I don't know where you got what you posted
Is it from JAMA?
This whole Schtick that it isn't happening had been debunked many times.

Now that we can definitively say it's happening I'd like to see the investigations started by those who said they would. But I wo t hold my breath.

There is gaslighting going on at best and flat out lying at the worst.

If there isn't any going on why are they so desperate to keep it legal? Why is Minnesota a sanctuary state for kids to be able to get surgeries?

As always the answer to that is it's about putting a stop to it before it happens. If no one wanted it to happen, then lengthy arguments about it wouldn't be occurring.

The results are minimal and short term. The only way to get conclusive results is to go full procedure on a large scale and then wait ten to twenty years to see how it worked out.
Oh it's happening. In the article on the research I provided the median age of the surgeries of kids that received it between 12 and 17 was 16. That means there were kids under 16 that got them. And 100% of them all were under 18. Not adults.

I guess you don’t understand hypotheticals.

I have a policy of only seriously engaging good faith actors. A good faith actor is someone who demonstrates a willingness to listen, objective look at the facts and respect for authoritative knowledge i.e. doctors, scientists etc...

That isn't the case here or in these anti-Trans hate threads. There is a saying that you can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into, and this saying usually proves true.

There's no point in trying to present science, "what if" scenarios or appealing to non-existent compassion for the lgbt like many here attempt endlessly. I just sometimes interject on these subjects as an actual transgender person myself and then mozy on.
There isn't any good science on this subject. What about the scie tests in Europe who have declared that the research is bad?

This is part of the issue the transing the kids supporters refuse to admit. The systematic reviews of the scientific research on this issue have proven that the research is faulty and untrustworthy.

But like you said, there are those who refuse to look at the facts and respect the authoritative knowledge of those who have conducted these reviews and told us the findings. They have also put actions to their finding by no longer participating in the Affirmative Care model and are limiting care to psychological care.or clinical studies that are heavily restricted.

I wonder who is really failing to act in good faith here.
