The Bible nowhere explicitly mentions transgenderism or describes anyone as having transgender feelings. However, the Bible has plenty to say about human sexuality, most of it in the "shalt not" category. And as Christians will often point out, that is in the OT, and Jesus gave a new order to things, so you can ignore those things. Unless they pick or choose of course, right?
The usual argument goes something like this: God created two (and only two) genders: “male and female He created them” (Genesis 1:27). Any discussion to any other possibility is foreign to the Bible, regardless what science shows.
But then, the Bible is pretty ignorant about science generally, so is that a big surprise?
Science is man made so of course, it wouldn't be based on the bible. It's the living Bible's author which created man in the first place. So man has no authority over Gods truth.

One of the discussion point is that "our children are in the danger of being molested in bathrooms". However, as this article shows, a child is much, much, MUCH more likely to be molested in church by church leaders than in any bathroom at Target or any other public place.
I completely believe this. This is because just as the bible had more heretics than believers, same is here on earth. BE EXTRA CAREFUL as the heretics LOVE to infiltrate the churches. Thanks for this reminder

As one commentator said: The more fundamentalist the church, the more prevalent the sexual abuse.
Sad, isn't it that this is a reality.
I don't know what fundamentalist is, it is likely not something found in the truth aka the Bible. So I think you are saying the more secular the church, the more prevalent the sexual abuse. That makes perfect sense.
OP, God says in bible to kill homosexuals. Most trans people are homosexuals. That is what the bible has to say about it.
God never says to kill homosexuals. God allows killing in the OT to show us how NOT to live in the New Covenant. How we cannot successfully govern ourselves and we are NOT to kill each other (except in self defense).
Again, the above is completely bogus. It's the EXACT opposite.
I don't know whether someone who simply feels more comfortable dressing in the opposite genders clothing has a sexual perversion or not. Or " if most of them do" as you say. But that is a stretch IMHO. Maybe because for many years as a kid, and well into 8th grade, I wore jeans and tshirts.
I can't think of anyone anywhere who would want their 13 year old son showering in the same locker room after gym with a girl. But what does that have to do with what bathroom a person uses at Target? And we all know how prevalent it is to have children molested in churches, right?
Don't you think that safe guards need to be in place in church settings as it pertains to children and youth? Unisex bathrooms are often available, and no one seems to be concerned about them, right?
No, they are not homosexuals. They are transsexual. Their psyche does not match their genitals.
Besides which, the bible says a lot of things you don't follow. Do you wear mixed fabric? Why?
You are quoting the Old Testament. It is our Tutor, nothing more. Christians live in the New Testament aka the New Covenant. Also known as the New Testament (NT) Of course, most of the moral laws are re-iterated in the NT though some of the ceremonial & custom laws are eliminated.

The only mention in the NT is Paul, not Jesus, about homosexuality. The New Covenant came from Jesus, not Paul, right? So, by your logic, homosexuality as a sin is also eliminated, right?
1 John 4: 1-7 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; 3and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world. 4You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. 5They are from the world; therefore they speak as from the world, and the world listens to them.6We are from God; he who knows God listens to us; he who is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.
God Is Love 7Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. 8The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love.
This is another example of how you know who is a heretic. ^^^ but there is more criteria provided in the bible to help us rightly discern the truth
