Not everyone ask God for help, and follows his will in dealing with their suffering. Just recognizing suffer and living in your suffering will only bring you more pain.
Most people may see another person suffering from this mental disorder and have great sympathy for them. Seeing another human suffer should always bring great compassion and love. That doesn’t mean I agree with their remedy to mutilate their body. Again the answer is Jesus Christ. Mental disorders are not cured by surgical means.
Hi,
This is so difficult. If you read Romans 13: 1-5 do you know what that says and means? It say and means that God tells us He makes laws for civlian governments, and we are to follow those laws. The civilian laws even the Federal Government of America say, if you are transgendered, you are to get medical help, which includes hormones and includes surgery. Not everyone needs everything, but it amazing how just getting hormones helps relieve the suffering of the transgendered.
Do you know what that means, in the context of Romans 13 1-5? It means the church is not following what God says to do in the Bible. Are they allowed to ignore the Bible? Are they?
A clue is the government also told them what to do about pedophiles, and they did not follow Gods Laws as described in Romans 13 1-5. They chose another course of action, from the laws of the civilians in every country of the world that I know of. Transgenderism and even Homosexuality are covered by civilian laws.
On another issue that of the Catechism and one even on Saints and their perceived infallibility consider that both have shown errors from time to time over the years. One such item is that of unbaptized babies who die. That was treated as the topic of Limbo, in the Cathechism and as a lesser Hell by Saint Augustine.
What does that mean?
If Augustine and The Church are totally infallible, then babies for years were sent to Hell, by God.
Later Limbo, was removed from the Catechism.
What does that mean to most Catholics?
It means that from then on, babies who were not baptized no longer went to Hell, as Augustine said.
Augustine is a Saint. People think every thought and word out of a Saint’s mouth is infallible.
The Catechism is made by the Catholic Church, and they changed it. That too is considered infallible by Catholics, in their opinions. So to Catholics, infallibility is changeable? No. Saints and the Catechism are infallible, only ex-cathedra items, only those, are infallible, nothing else they say or saints say is. Nothing else, except if they are telling us something that God told them. Then that is infallible, but never ever called that and not actually usable that way anymore since roughly 50AD.
Now it is considered just private revelation and no matter how true it is, it is not considered something all of us have to follow.
The problem was and is neither Saints in all their words, and neither the Catechism is really infallible. They are not, and you can check on this, but please, please, please do not just find a person who agreees with you, listen to those who do not also. Did not God say to test all things? If He did, you must test, and to do that requires you know all there is.
On the issue of intersex, where babies are born with ambiguous genitilia, John Hopkins made a horrible horrible mistake, and was able to get the whole world to follow them in their thoughts. Years later, meaning now their mistakes are no longer followed and the intersex lead fuller nicer lives.
John Hopkins is not only not infallible, they have made huge world wide mistakes before, and should you listen only to them, on the issue of being Transgendered, then?
This John Hopkins Psychiatrist is widely known, not narrowly, but widely known to not use science correctly on this issue. He is known a pushing his own personal opinion, for whatever reasons he is doing that.
He in the world of transgender science is one of the few, who do not agree with all of the other observations and work out there. That would be fine, if his words were accurtate, as he could be the only one telling the truth. Suicides are dramatically lowered in that community now. When suicide rates are compared to treated and non treated transgendered folks, the suicide rate, is much lower in those who are treated.
So, how could he site a report, that says otherwise, bringing up fears of a cover up? That is an unknown to this research scientist. Almost all countries now face this issue now, not that it hasn’t been around for thousands of years, and all of them are finding that it is not a mental condition, and treating this works.
Did you know that Europe and America have books talking about Psychiatric conditions. In America this is not a mental condition. It is stated as such. I don’t think it is stated as a mental condition in England, or in Europe. Only that Psychiatrist says otherwise. Did you know that long term no one but no one has ever been cured of trangender conditions? Not one single person who has gone to therapy either has been cured of transgenderism. Not one. Yet, the horrors of their condition is relieved by what is called transition. Transition is also known by another name therapeutically, it is the only treatment that has ever been shown to work.
Love,
