Look up LEVITICUS 20:13

Naw naw naw, that's only if you are jewish.

You see for Christians they are no longer under the law, as God, the all knowing God, creator of everything told man, whoops I got some stuff wrong, sent his son doon there, got him crucified and got man to write a new bit of the bible called The New Testament. 
But yeah the good old book, well there’s plenty of pretty extreme nasty stuff in there.

In full honesty it's all new to me anyway.
Although i was Christened i soon saw through all the bullshit and won't have anything to do with any religion whatsoever.
I don't get it, and i don't want to get it either.

  Strangely I was never Christened, my mother told me that by that time with three kids she just didn’t quite get round to it.  Anyway was raised a protestant - Church of Scotland.  My undoing was actually reading the bible from beginning to end.  Finished it, and well I guess I became agnostic, only eventually I realised I wasn’t too sure about that either, so now an atheist.  When you are raised in, indoctrinated, it takes time to work it out of your system anyway.

OH my heed :rollin, lets concentrate on the light fitting thread :lol

[mtread]

Leviticus 20.13 Jesus Christ! Next you'll be telling me that woman was created from Adam's spare rib. Now that is gender fluid  :lol

[celticdog]

Lots of things are fluid, alcohol is fluid, so is blood, time and money and facts, so why not gender?

Doubt you'll ever hear anyone asking for a pint of Gender down the local tonight.  :lol

Similar story to me. I was raised CoE, which was mainly through school - Everything was religion orientated.
I read the "Good Book" all the way through. It is a great book, very interesting to read. I think that many more people should read it all the way through instead of hearing the 'soundbites' that is spouted at certain times of the year.
I became an unbeliever - I think I already didn't believe and I just used the bible as an excuse to define it. I don't use the term Atheist as my understanding of the word (more than likely wrong as I haven't looked it up in a dictionary) is Anti-Theist and it is still referring to religion by the use of the word Theist.
I am not religious and I don't care what anyone else believes as that is up to them and not me. I do expect the same courtesy in return.


As for Gender Fluid... I don't really understand it. I understand the term and I can understand the reasons why someone may be unsure but deep down I do not understand it and I don't think anyone could possibly explain it either.

'Gender fluid' or just a total mess? The kid will suffer all kinds of torment at school, through no fault of his own.

A few years ago, I think I was gender fluid.....
If I spent too long a time with the opposite gender, all this white fluid used to come out.

I thought if you were born with a penis you are a man ?
Seems like a new trend for the youngsters to avoid fitting in.
oh well back to the garage then.. hide with the tools and ignore this rubbish

I'm with you Flooky, you can tell/kid yourself just what you want as long as it fits in with your life style and preferences.

Look at any other species, dog, cat, mouse, horse, mule, elephant, spider and list goes on and on, in all these species the male has the penis the female the vagina, I am not aware of any (Choice) gender dysphoria in the animal world. But it's all OK now, because 51% of the population say it's OK, so you can not challenge anyone. I put the word (Choice) above because some live bearing fish can actually be both sexes, guppies being one of them.

Clownfish.
Apparently a school of Clownfish is always led by the female fish at the top of the chain, but when she dies the most dominant male changes sex then takes her place!  :look

Seems to me Gender and Sexual preference/orientation are getting mixed up ! I you are born with male genitals .. well you are a man ( your gender)  - where you choose or are compelled to stick your genitals "after dark" is your choice and defines you sexual orientation.

Some things in life are binary- You are either a Man or a Woman

Here, here! the voice of reason

Yes indeed :rolleyes.

It was jolly funny tho :lol

Here’s an interesting one brought to my attention the other day that’s in The Bible apparently.
I doubt it’s mentioned too much in church though, probably due to the massive hypocrisy.

Look up LEVITICUS 20:13

Right, because the problem is with *that* child's parents and in NO WAY the fault of the parents of the little bastards who will bully and torment them...

[celticdog]

This is a very apt song for 'gender fluid', let me here you body talk! + I really like looking at vintage Olivia Newton John  :b

As you probably know full well, anything that strays from the 'norm' does incite some form of bullying - just look at what kids go through at school if they have to wear glasses. I am in no way saying it is right but I am just pointing out what's going to happen. That kids life could be hell and all because the parents think it's cool/funky/modern.
