Sadly, the transgender community has been mistreated for a while, just like other minority groups in history, and even today. I happen to believe that the transgender community simply just wants respect and kindness, like we all do. It isn't for me to judge if they have an agenda, but rather to show them the love of Jesus.
What is "the transgender agenda"?
I think the gist is "social acceptance of transgender people is new and therefore disturbing, why can't things be like they were on Happy Days when everyone looked and acted the same?". If ever there was something that deserved a TL;DR. Why not just summarize coherently.
I do have sympathy for genuine cases ,butUmmmm except that when mentally they are female the heal is to make the body comport to their mind, the mind is dominate, what someone looks like isn't often who they are, and shouldn't the thing that is dominate decide? You can stick a human brain in a cats body and they are still human, just in a cats body.
It does seem that there are genuine cases of people truly feeling they are one sex ,while having the body of another ,and this would be a nightmare to live out .If genuine, it will start in early childhood ,and if treatment means changing the gender identity to fit the body ,yes it will bring some relief .However behind this , the reason it is all happening ,is that humanity is caught up in the lies and distortions created by the fact that Satan, after having been banished for a time, is now well and truly ruling us, until Jesus returns .People should not base medical decisions on personal beliefs. Or we end up attempting to beat demons out of people instead of offering treatments that are actually effective.
All sickness is of Satan since the Fall ,all of it . Sometimes it comes through inheritance , through the family 'sins', including tribal ones ,but we were not sick in 'paradise '. When familes teach false ideas about God and His truth there is an inevitable consequence to the générations which follow .We are not Individuals in the way the Anglo /American West would have us believe ,but connected ,and when we promote 'sin' in public we are responsible for the 'sin of others, especially the young .Satan isn't behind transgender people. Indications are pointing toward hormone interaction in the womb causing the brain to develop opposite of the body. Just like how hormone interaction can cause the body to develop opposite of the hormones.
Asking for respect doesn't "force" you to do anything, let alone to "enter into their disphoria".
Tonight an ordinance in my city which, among other things, allowed men to use women's restrooms was defeated.Social justice warriors, UNITE!!!!!!
I won't cry. I'll just roll my eyes at so much ignorance and stupidity congratulating itself for being obnoxious.Tonight an ordinance in my city which, among other things, allowed men to use women's restrooms was defeated.
The overriding sentiment in my Facebook feed is best characterized as "Keep crying, liberals, we love your tears".
I won't endorse that position. I sure won't condemn it though.
You're funny. I like you.
It should be common sense that therapy is better than colluding with Gender Identity Disorder, and certainly preferable to self mutilation.Do you have a source for your previous statements? Two people asked you. One. Two.
As for the "popular myth", I am not sure what you think is a myth. Given the post you quoted, I'm guessing that you might be referring to the evidence of brains developing opposite of the sex of the body. Since there is evidence, by definition, not a myth.
Lacking "firmly established etiology" doesn't make something a myth. Continuing to call Gender Dysphoria by the outdated term "Gender Identity Disorder" seems like a desperate move to hold on to the idea that it is a disorder even though it isn't.

Can you imagine ever, under any circumstances, choosing to undergo gender reassignment therapy for a "fad"?I have great compassion for genuine cases but I think it's just become a fad for people rebellious to God.
It's New Age stuff where they aim to control the world with computer transgender robots
Houston? My mom was talking about that proposition a few weeks ago and how she didn't want to go to restrooms with men. I've always personally wondered the point of those bathroom laws because I don't understand what really stops transwomen from using women's restrooms or transmen from using mens, nor creeps disguising themselves and sneaking into restrooms.
Kindness perhaps ,but respect involves agreement ,and that is not for sale .Sadly, the transgender community has been mistreated for a while, just like other minority groups in history, and even today.
