There are so many things wrong with this picture!
Obtaining a sex change is serious matter. If the person knows this and still deliberately continues with this, they are committing a mortal sin.I know of nothing against sex changes and participating in mass.The priest probably knows the reason for this. He is still more than welcome to continue to do his music ministry.
You might be right but can you give us the CCC or canon law references to this because I can’t find anything there.
This is an excellent analogy, and can also be applied against those who are trying to legitimize homosexual behavior in society by encouraging sexual activity that is not only morally reprehensible but physiologically and psychologically damaging on many levels.
Youv’e Better read up on you facts before you go off spewing half truths like that… No one just walks in a doctors office and gets a sex change. There is much couneling, testing and so on before one is even approved for hormones much less any operation. Testing to see that the brain and the body are not in alignment. Please don’t carteblanche assume gender and homosexual issues are the same thing, they are not. With all the mention of sin here, Ill remind everyone that superficiality is a sin also. God designed the human brain so that humans can look byond the surface in all issues. I see nothing but surface issue thinking in this thread.The rationalizations for sexual realignment are very telling. A commentor on my blog enlightened me that there are cases of people who always believed they were meant to be an amputee and voluntarily have healthy and functioning limbs removed. So follow this and see the disconnect:
–An anorexic women walks into a doctor’s office skin and bones and says, “I’m fat. Give me liposuction.” What should the doctor do? Answer: get her to a specialist in eating disorders. You don’t under any circumstances give her liposuction.
–A man walks in to a doctor’s office and says, “Ever since I was a child, I’ve imagined myself without my left leg. Amputate it.” What should the doctor do? Answer: get him to a psychologist. You don’t amputate.
–A man walks into a doctor’s office and says, “Ever since I was a child, I felt like a woman trapped in a man’s body. Give me a sex-change operation.” What should the doctor do? Well, common sense would tell us to to do the same thing we did with the anorexic and the wanna-be amputee. But *nooooo, *because this is a pelvic issue that is somehow different.
Anyone who has paid any attention over the years and doesn’t have their head in an ideological fog readily sees that the defenders of homosex and gender-bending are less concerned about fairness than with waging war on Truth and Goodness.
What is this test of brain and body alignment? I’m curious because I have been diagnosed bi-polar and I never had any kind of test done. My diagnosis seems to be on opinion only. What is this concrete test? Please enlighten me. Tim
This is scary & sick at the same time. Like a Holloween movie.I tried therapy for that with christian therapists for 10years, all it did was lead to suicide attempts, four of them in my case. The folks I met along the way would either drop out, or end up killing themselves. I think I lost about four or five ‘therapy friends’ to suicide. Some of them just vanished off onto the street in homelessness, the therapy made them so emotionally conflicted they lost their job/home/livelihood. None of them were suicidal until they started therapy, just confused. The therapy made it much, much worse. No one ever studies the washouts, or the dead bodies, they only want to hear about the people that say ‘I’m cured!’
Nobody just walks in a doctor’s office and gets liposuction or gets a limb removed either. The points are still analogous, after the process, 1 and 2 don’t get done, but 3 does.
The anorexic will literally be killing themselves by going through with that, it is assisted suicide essentially. Meanwhile, the person requesting limbs cut off will become a burden on society and divert money from those who have such a state naturally or by accident.
Every surgery causes some sort of burden on a medical system. That burden is then compensated either by the individual, or their insurance, or the state. For the anorexic, that would literally be their last burden on society. As for the amputee, thousands of people without limbs or with malfunctioning limbs contribute very well to society. A transsexual would also contribute as they did before.
