There is no "transgendered." You are the sex you were born, mutilation by surgery doesn't change that. People wanting a sex change operation need a a good psychiatrist, not a glorified plumber with a scalpel.

@tingo Because western religions are all about exclusion, even though they pretend to be about inclusion. Well, except the Jews, but even they used to be different before all the Europeans kept trying to slaughter them en masse.

You'd think fundamentalists would be more tolerant since there are probably more in their midst. I heard Ann Coulter used to be Andrew Coulter.

why do all western religions exclude, and not account for basic human psychology? The buddhists are the closest to getting it right in my opinion- what higher power could argue with live and let live? And why obey any other? If a 'higher power' told me to hate or exclude, then who's the higher power?

take the canoli: it is not "a Yeshiva," it's Yeshiva University. Yes, one could not possibly imagine any other response from the Orthodox. That would be like Sarah Palin and the rest of the Evangelicals escorting Palin's daughter to the nearest Planned Parenthood.

And here I thought the Evangelicals had cornered the market on hate. That said, it is a Yeshiva...wtf was he thinking?

As a gay Jew, I invite Torah law, Torah ethics, and Torah morality to take turns biting me.
