Just as with most things scientific, old beliefs that helped explain what had been unexplainable, thunder was angels bowling, lightning was Zeus throwing fiery bolts at people, were replaced as facts came forward explaining how things really were.
Sometimes simple things were not all that simple, and certain beliefs and assumptions had to give way to evidence. That’s how we moved away from the Dark Ages and we came to realize the earth travels around the sun and not the other way around.
And just as with most things scientific, the Church fought to keep beliefs as they were.
Science has come to new understandings of gender identity, but Vatican remains in the dark ages preferring comfortable on myths, rumors, and falsehoods.
The Vatican has issued a statement rejecting Transgender people because the concept goes against nature as the Vatican claims it. The Congregation for Catholic Education has decided that Trans people are experiencing ‘nothing more than a confused concept of freedom in the realm of feelings and wants’.
The document is titled after the line in Genesis “Male And Female He Created Them”, and was released without prior announcement on 10 June.
Rather than being clear, the title almost contradicts the content of the document as, according to Genesis I, on the sixth day of creation God created Adam.
“So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them”.
Then after creation was done and Adam appeared lonely, in Genesis II
“The LORD God fashioned into a woman the rib which He had taken from the man, and brought her to the man.”
So, who was created n the sixth day and who when creation was all done?
“In the image of God He created him” yet he was a male and female “them”.
Perhaps we need to talk to the one sentient eye witness capable of speech who was present at the time from whom we can get an explanation on what was natural, the talking serpent.
The pope has previously claimed,

“Let’s think of the nuclear arms, of the possibility to annihilate in a few instants a very high number of human beings. Let’s think also of genetic manipulation, of the manipulation of life, or of the gender theory, that does not recognize the order of creation. With this attitude, man commits a new sin, that against God the Creator.”
I thought we Gays we tough what with our ability to cause floods, fires, tornadoes, and hurricanes, but these Transgender folk can cause nuclear annihilation.
Tread lightly, Pontiff.
The document goes on to say,
“Efforts to go beyond the difference, such as the ideas of “intersex” or “transgender”, lead to a masculinity or feminity that is ambiguous.”
And ignoring that straightening out dysphora eliminates ambiguity, the report then jumps to the it’s-just-a-phase stupidity by claiming,
“if someone is not cisgender, they are aiming to be ‘provocative’” and “’liquidity’ and ‘fluidity’ that characterize other aspects of post-modern culture, often founded on nothing more than a confused concept of freedom in the realm of feelings and wants, or momentary desires provoked by emotional impulses and the will of the individual.
The document also says that “gender theory” forces people to “move away from nature”.
Just ask the serpent.
The Vatican calls on doctors to ‘intervene’ on intersex patients, with unnecessary procedures intended to ‘normalize’ infants at birth even if parent don’t want the intervention ad even though these procedures may impact a person’s quality of life.
The only saving grace of the document is that it praises educational programs that combat ‘unjust discrimination’.
The Vatican falls back on equating GLBT people with libertine sexuality, something that has historically given tacit approval for hatred, bigotry, and violence against us, and drives those whose lives could be improved and completed by addressing their true selves to confusion, self-harm, addiction, and suicide and cause families to reject their children.
The Vatican, in rejecting science, is ill-equipped to discuss gender and sexuality in the modern world.
