Christianity IS A RELIGION. Look up the definition. No problem. It's a religion. Where does Jesus practices hate? John 4:20.: "If anyone says "I love God" and hates his brother, he is a liar." I'm not talking about Jesus. I'm talking about religion being used to ostracize people who don't live in the same bubble. |

Sure, there are bad people out there abusing Christianity, and other people abusing other religions, as well. Like I've said, the people abusing their religion are not actual Christians. They just give Christians a bad name. |

It's definitely political, as well. You don't have to respond here if you don't want to. Nobody does. It's not. It's a personal choice. Someone's gender identity is their own. Can it be made a political issue? Of course. But at its core? Not so much. The came could be said about vaccines. It's a personal choice. Or abortion. |

I'm curious about your thoughts, if you want to share, on giving rights to transgender people being able to use Women's or Mens Restrooms, and your thoughts on transgenders competing in Mens sports. The bathroom thing, if a man is dressed as a female and identifies as one, then she can use that bathroom. The urinal bathroom is for men. If a female identifies as one, what do I care if she uses a stall. Transgender people in sports, in favor of inclusion in sports through middle school, biological sex high school and up for CIF sports; for high school college club/recreation level sports, people can do whatever they wish. |

Someone choosing to identify by what they wish in their own life doesn't endanger anyone but the person being marginalized. |

I think that opens up a can of worms. How do you know they're going to use stalls, etc.... It can also be a free invitation for Pedophiles to disguise as a transgender and potentially molest someone. It's definitely happened. There has to be boundaries. Separate bathrooms should be the way as they are for Female and Male right now. Transgender Females participating in Female sports is simply unfair, point blank. |

Someone choosing to identify by what they wish in their own life doesn't endanger anyone but the person being marginalized. Abortions kill babies. Yes, it can turn out to be a horrible situation where the mother has to make a choice between the baby's life or hers, but that's rare. The person who decided to change their identity is hopefully, doing so sincerely instead of masking it to get away pedophiles tendencies. |

Prior to that point, it's a fetus. A fetus is not viable until 22 weeks. And no, it's not rare at all. Multiple women have died in the last two months because they were refused life-saving care. And then there's this. www.google.com/amp/s/www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna171631In addition to that, infant mortality rates have risen since Roe v. Wade was overturned, much of that due to congenital anomalies that would be detected in utero where a pregnancy could be terminated, where there's no chance at life for the fetus. I have a congenital birth defect, I'm lucky mine wasn't as severe as others. Now, do you know where a disproportionate amount of sexual abuse originates from? |

The came could be said about vaccines. It's a personal choice. Or abortion. Not at all the same thing. Vaccines save lives. Abortions save lives. Someone choosing to identify by what they wish in their own life doesn't endanger anyone but the person being marginalized. Depends on the vaccine. The COVID vaccine is effective at lowering the severity of infection, Not the infection frequency. The social benefits of the COVID vaccine are very marginal. The social benefits of vaccines that prevent infection are much higher. Abortion mostly ends lives, technically speaking. Also, both sides make the abortion thing way to black and white. There is grey area there. There is social benefits to bringing a child into the world, primarily the benefit to that child itself. so again, very similar. |

I think that both of these hypotheticals are corner cases... not the average normal situation. |

Ton of wrong information in there, too. And you cherrypick COVID when it's been scientifically shown that vaccines overall save lives. |

Transgender Females participating in Female sports is simply unfair, point blank. Which is why I delineated CIF sports/NCAA college sports, from recreational sports. Fairness is really important for the really competitive sports. It's not as important as social inclusion for elementary and middle school children, and for people doing recreational clubs. |

A source! I'm blown away. We're learning. However, the abuse stemming from the clergy is MUCH more prevalent. |
