I’m only praying Christ returns soon and the Holy Spirit will clean up the mess we are in. I trust in God and his mercy.
I’ve never understood this sentiment… I’m a Christian too, but it’s hard to not read this as “I can’t wait for millions of people who I think aren’t as good as me to die agonizing deaths because the idea the person in the next stall isn’t dressing to match their physical gender is too irritating.” Kind of like rolling up to a family reunion and saying “man, when are you all going to die so I can collect my inheritance and not have the hassle of seeing all you people?”

The implication being that I have no important women or girls in my life and thus I don’t care, I guess?

I don’t know what you do in bathrooms or locker rooms, but when I’m in one or the other, the person in the stall next to me could be a woman, man, or aardvark and I would neither notice or care. I tend to be focused on my own self and my reason for being there vs playing a game of “whose sex organs don’t match the gender I assume they must be?”

I promise you, you’ve shared a bathroom with a trans person and had no clue. Most trans people don’t walk into the bathroom and scream “hey I’m trans!” They walk in, do their business, and leave, all without fuss or fanfare or even really standing out. Men survived the “but what I’m sharing a locker room with a gay guy and they see me naked?!” panic of 1975-2000, women will persevere though the “what is the person in the stall next to me packing?” panic of 2023-2024.

Seriously, it will be ok.
No, I never stated that. I’m sure you know plenty of girls and women you care deeply about.

For those who don’t accept the trans agenda, things are more complicated.

Just because you are fine with using a restroom with a biological male, doesn’t mean all women are.

If someone is a biological male, then yes, I will speak out if they choose to use the ladies restroom.

Their feelings or fetish do not automatically override the rights of all women.

I’m all for trans people living as they want. Just because they identify as such doesn’t make it so.

Blessings

What are you talking about? I never stated any of that.

I don’t see God as a monster, and believe he loves all.

I never wished an “agonizing death” on anyone.

For those confused about your gender:

If you have a penis, you’re a man!

If you have a vagina, you’re a woman!

If you have both or some, you’re intersex and have a birth defect!

Your feelings and sexualization of trans people doesn’t automatically override their rights either.

How do you even know if somebody in the bathroom with you is biologically male? Is there a screening that is done that I’m not aware of? I feel like you are thinking transgender people all do bad drag and are easily identifiable when the reality is very different. Most transgender men and women I know are indistinguishable as their physical gender and would be far more out of place going into their birth-assigned gender restroom than in the one that matches their outward identity.

Me thinks you best reacquaint yourself with what will happen when/if Jesus comes back.

How can I know? If you go off based on Matthew 24 he will divide the sheep and goats based on those who loved their neighbors as themselves. The dead will rise again.

No pain for the righteous, eh?

I mean, I’m a male, so your point is kinda moot.

I’m sexualizing trans people? Lol. what?

Anyway, I’m sure most trans men and women should just use unisex restrooms or the sex they truly are.

They have no right to deceive anyone or make anyone uncomfortable.

They made their choice.

Maybe I don't want to see a guy naked in the locker room, that is my right.

You got the term right. It's a fetish and it's trying to masquerade as normalcy.

This is one of the reasons why I do not want to have kids, cos I do not want my daughter to have to go to the bathroom with guys or deal with this trans nonsense. Other reasons why I do not want kids include having my hypothetical offspring grow up during climate change and heatwaves, and the possibility of Russia nuking the world.
What a terrible reason to not have children.

Amen! You have every right to tell men to STAY OUT. Period!

I think people are at their limit of this nonsense.
Trans people are mentally ill and deserve our compassion, however. We must NEVER validate their delusion. Simple.

I agree. I think that's why Trump is popular (because the left has gone off the deep end).

I would have to agree with that. Now, if the Republicans could put up a better candidate that is well-spoken and more centrist, then everything would be perfect. Joe needs to stop pushing this trans stuff on us.

Well said. He has a daughter! He should be ashamed.
