I agree, but they don't deserve to be called fundamentalists the way they revise the bible

It's either all part of God's plan, or none of it is.

Broad strokes... I know plenty of people who are Christians who attend church and hold very progressive views. I'm sorry that your experience with believers has been so poor. Please do try to remember that nobody talks about the person who isn't bothering anyone with their beliefs.

The verse was meant to discourage religious eunichs, as so many verses were just meant to enact a change within a group of people long ago, the entire book of Deuteronomy for instance was telling Jews a specific code to live by, including sanitation and hygiene laws. Good way to encode your culture's safeguards, bad way to ensure their future peace.

i mean it's a little outdated

but some of the lines are fire

"easier for a camel to enter the eye of a needle than a rich person to get into heaven" and "love thy neighbor" were good

maybe it's time for a rewrite

Deuteronomy more like Neuteronomy

Goddamn I love that shit. You know how many times I've been told I'm wrong for being an Atheist because "the Bible says God is real!" That line never gets old, I tell ya what.

For there are eunuchs who were born that way, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others—and there are those who choose to live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it.

Matthew 19:12

Christian scholars condemned bodily modifications because they wanted to control your body instead.

Always has been.

The one thing brain worms McGee could have done and gotten a nod from me, and he fucked it up by throwing autism in there! Seriously though, I'm so glad my mom is as bull headed as she is and told the hospital staff to fuck off when they were pushing for that shit.

Like why is a cereal manufacturer still having us mutilate newborns?

Maga men also are much more likely to take steroids and/or penis pills. And let's talk about semiglutides. For people who think modern medicine is evil, and all doctors and pills are trying to kill you, they sure are conveniently unaware of their own convictions when it comes to vanity.

He probably existed and if he did was most likely a great speaker but his stories are at least massively embellished.

The Bible old and New testament is trans affirming although it has some passages against homosexuality. In fact the old testament says that eunuchs are allowed and even favored in heaven, but aren't allowed in temples. Jesus says that some people are made that way, some born that way, and some choose to be that way to serve God, but doesn't create a strong requirement to be kind to them, rather saying, those who can understand this should understand it. So both God and Jesus are trans affirming and says so in the Bible, but a man should not lay with another man and also there is a verse about a man should t wear the clothes of a woman, but I don't think that would apply to eunarchs which are not considered men or women or to have a gender.

This is actually a pretty cool loophole for gay people. If you are a bottom you could just become trans if you have to live in a religiously oppressive society. It gives at least one pathway to happiness and love, but I know there are many gay people who prefer to be masculine while also homosexual.

As a trans person I don't believe in religion myself but I do pray to God. Maybe an old habit. My idea of God isn't a skypervert, and authoritarian but more like a friendly spirit who helps people who have good hearts and teaches wisdom to those who have dark hearts, but still stay aligned with the ineffable platonic good.

Even as a child it always seemed really silly to me that a god would care about who you love or what you wore. That never made any sense to me. I always assumed God was more intelligent than your average human. People who believe those things are not really believers in my opinion. All their assumptions are obviously coming from a place of, not actually believing in God, but wanting to use it as a tool to hurt people they don't like. I see a totally different perspective. To me those people seem miserable and suffering in their own confusion and I always considered that to be justice for their own shittiness and their audacity to badmouth God out of their cynicism. God usually doesn't punish much, he will sometimes destroy, but when people abuse his name and know him not, then it's kind of fair game. They are in his debt and owe him for the trouble they cause him.

Nope, changing pronouns is compelling speech according to evangelical extremists. Oh and changing your name should only apply to last name's of women and young girls getting married, cuz we gotta keep in mind however many states still allow child marriage.

God is trans by common definition; not male or female, both, neither. God is non-binary.

They probably couldn't imagine such a thing to make it a sin. Evidence: because they totally would have.
