Gender Dysphoria is a well-documented medical issue recognized by the AMA, both APAs, WHO, and every other credible medical organization.
Well credible places also say God isn't real. The flood never happened. Jesus never existed. Miracles never happen. And of course we came from the Big Bang.Gender Dysphoria is a well-documented medical issue recognized by the AMA, both APAs, WHO, and every other credible medical organization.
hmmmmm interesting...ok I will then keep an eye on this...thank you for your inputThere is no ban. The President made a tweet about it, however, the military does not see tweeting as official procedure so they're not going to change anything unless Trump goes through the proper methods to change policy.
Joint Chiefs: No change in transgender policy until Trump sends Pentagon direction
God does NOT make mistakes and doing this slaps Him in His face.Well credible places also say God isn't real. The flood never happened. Jesus never existed. Miracles never happen. And of course we came from the Big Bang.
And of course again I point out "credible medical sources" are not the bible. Granted I do believe the gender thing is some sort of mental issue. But changing ones genitalia doesn't somehow make the problem go away. It just reenforces the mental issue. That and changes ones genitals isn't actually needed to be a different sex. They can just pretend they are one as always. Though technically they can't be a different sex since God only created two.
Righteous judgment is different from those that judge due to looks.Um, well our view is based on God. So our view makes sense. Any other view about the issue is wrong because its not based on what God says.
But erectile dysfunction is an actual medical issue. Where as not having the other sexes genital is not a medical issue.
Hmm, given your response I'd say maybe the hate is coming from the other side. That and throwing in everyone who voted for Trump as being hateful and bigoted. That aside are you saying christians are also bigoted? Seems impossible given what the bible says.
I thought the point of the "Junk Drawer" was to have a place where people didn't have these sort of discussions?
tulc(is just wondering)
Well see here's the thing we have several places here on CF where we discss these things already, in fact those are the places I hang out most of the time. I was under the impression this fora was for lighter less confrontation discussions? That was my point. I was just trying to keep the fora for what it was for is all.The Junk drawer is exactly that..to talk about anything that is pertinent to these days..and to give opinions on what is happening today. If you want to keep your head in the sand then you are more than free to do so. I, on the other hand, would like to talk about political happenings be it fair or controversial. There is nothing wrong with this.
A number of transgenders that are half baked so to speak are coming into the military just for the operation and medical treatments by the 1000's each treatment cost the taxpayer close to 25,000 or more to complete..Billions ? Got a source for that ?

And like noses. we all can pick our own!Unfortunately, Opinions are sadly thought of as "fighting' which it isn't...its opinions and from the looks of a number of replies to this thread there are many people that have opinions.
Not a problem, sometimes things get...touchy so don't be surprised if this get moved to another section. Meanwhile: I'm hoping you're enjoying your time here on CF!and this "junk drawer is a lovely catch all for threads that can't be found in "OTHER PLACES." and it is a convenient place to be able to just go to and see 'what's up' and enjoy possible odd n sod controversial threads that one can throw out thoughts about. I find that if I have a thought I can come here and throw out a political or religious tidbit, and see what others say about it. no different than face book I think...
So your saying God made LGBT people to be unsure of what they are?God does NOT make mistakes and doing this slaps Him in His face.
If someone is willing to serve in the military and put their lives at risk for you and me I don't really care about their gender. The expense is extremely minimal -- far, far less then the military spends on Viagra -- it shouldn't be even under consideration.
This is just Trump coming up with some BS to distract people from what is really going on with him and his people. It's a tweet, not an order, and he is just trying to shore up his bigoted, hateful base.

How about if they agree either not to have any medical stuff done for their transness or they agree they have to pay for it out of pocket? Then is it okay if they serve?One being compelled to morally or financially support what stands against God is wrong!
God Bless,

I asked just because the "expensive surgery" is the thing I keep hearing bandied about, including here. Now it seems there are other reasons.The medical stuff is just one aspect. How about the he/she facilities, sleeping and bathing? How about others who want to serve but do not qualify? The deaf, the blind, the mentally ill, murderers, etc. ? Should special concessions be made for them?

Trans people do qualify, or at least, some do. The question isn't about letting in those who don't qualify, it's about banning some who do.
And I really do not think this can be compared allowing the deaf and blind to serve.
You seem to think I'm pushing for trans people to serve. I'm not. I just asked whether it would be okay if this one supposed problem everyone was talking about was taken away. Apparently not. I just wanted to understand the position.
Are gay men and women still okay, or no?
