[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Remember when catholic schools forced left handed kids to write with their right… because of the devil. Same thing.

Or priests could not marry interracial couples, same thing.

Or divorced people could not receive communion, same thing.

Or women could not do certain things on the alter during mass, same thing.

or women could not be part of the Dicastery, same thing.

The Catholic Church as it is currently run by the corrupt men in the US is often pathetic and behind the times.

No you can’t discriminate… it’s against the law and against Jesus.[/quote]

No, it's not the "same thing." Not even close. For one thing, most of the items you have listed here affect adults, not still developing and impressionable children.[/quote]

I’m showing you the church is often wrong and eventually gets with reality.

Yes it is similar, forcing left handed people to use their right because they did not believe in science.[/quote]

The church has been wrong about many things through the years, yes of course. But there is nothing in the Bible that specifically states all people should be right-handed. There is, however, very clear instruction that God created us, male and female, each according to His purpose. That is a very different thing.[/quote]

That is sex not gender nor is it gender identity.

Also what about those born Xxy or XYY or intersex.

What does the Bible say about that?[/quote]

Actually, in Deuteronomy (old testament), the Bible does speak about expression of gender identity. Look up Deuteronomy 22:5   And those that are born intersex - you mean the half of one percent that are born with ambiguous genitalia that is almost always surgically corrected to match DNA before the age of 2?  Or those even rarer cases of Klinefelter or Jacobs syndrome, which generally do not present with ambiguous genitalia, thus establishing that the person is male or female?[/quote]

Lol Deuteronomy? “A woman shall not wear a man’s apparel” are we forbidding women to wear pants now? Okay is Green Bay also going to outlaw shrimp?

You think god only cares about 99.9% of his children? You trying to erase their existence? Oh you know people just ignore what god created? Are they not created in gods likeness too?

Xxy and xyy … are all male due to the Y? Really? They all have male genitalia ? Science.[/quote]

The disciples questioned Jesus about divorce (he said no, unless the marriage is unlawful), and they asked, well then isn't better just to not get married? [lol to that, Matthew 19:10]. Here is what Jesus said, according to the Gospel of Matthew, as translated and cited on line by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops:

10 [His] disciples said to him, “If that is the case of a man with his wife, it is better not to marry.”
11 He answered, “Not all can accept [this] word,* but only those to whom that is granted.
12 Some are incapable of marriage [b]because they were born so[/b]; some, because they were made so by others; some, because they have renounced marriage* for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. Whoever can accept this ought to accept it.”

Pretty obtuse translation, that. Other translations here: https://biblia.com/bible/kjv1900/matthew/19/10-12  It is interesting to read multiple translations as you can see agendas and choices in how to interpret ancient words in modern translation. Which also makes it odd to make yourself a slave to any particular translation.

He "made them male and female" for the purpose of marriage and becoming one flesh. But he also made some of them be born incapable of marriage. Given that there is much debate over what is meant by a person being born incapable of marriage, and given Jesus' clear acknowledgement and acceptance of eunuchs (including in some interpretations, eunuch's by birth, eunuch's by acts of others, and eunuchs by choice), who are we to say anything other than that Jesus acknowledged that not everyone was born male or female?
