Sigh. Pat Robertson is 'supportive' of transgender identities the way Iran is. He's coming at this from the perspective that males and females have gender roles assigned by God and therefore a gender-nonconforming person is 'in the wrong body' (not sure how he explains that if he thinks God doesn't make mistakes, but whatevs). It's just the new conversion therapy.

I feel bad for the LGB, being sold out by their own 'rights' organizations.

I read an article about four years ago that talked about how popular transitioning children was among some US religious conservatives, the thought being better a "daughter" than a gay son.

Transition in a good % of cases is pure gay conversion therapy.

I'm really hoping this finally flips on a light switch for some people.

Pat Robertson cheated on his wife. I say, “let’s check his hard drive!”

I was just about to post this. I always imagined religious people, especially Christians, would be offended by the idea that God made a "mistake". Guess I was wrong.

In the world of parallel universes, I must have diverged into a strange time-line. Did I make decisions that led to me reading this? Am I responsible for ending up in the transgender time line? And what new decisions could I make to revert back to the time-line I was adjusted to?
