I feel the same about him as I did about Michael Jackson. If you are THAT unhappy with the way that your Creator made you, you have some real serious issues.

Ad hominem. It’s not about me. I just hate hypocrisy, on either side of the aisle. I feel we don’t have the right to rip the libs for their utter hypocrisy unless we attempt to remove it from our side.

When she was FL, Laura Bush WAS flayed for her traffic fatality on scorning left wing sites. Never here. It may have been mentioned here, but the treatment was more of What a shame; could happen to anyone. A lot of FReepers have probably rear ended other cars with theirs. Not everyone has done it on the curvy fast PCH with a grandma in front who may have lost control of her steering wheel. Yes, Bruce’s fault, but rear ending happens daily on the roads. No excuse but accidents do happen.

Your “kind and Christian” mocking of it is why so many kill themselves.

Who the hell do you think you are?

Caitlyn used to be THE most popular name for girls (real girls). Now it’s the moniker of a surgically disfigured sicko.

In terms of future popularity it’s probably going to go the way of Adolph.

I tend to agree. What kind of inner torture or debased, demented way of thinking could motivate somebody to subject themselves to the abuse and mutilation of their own bodies, not to mention enduring the contempt and ridicule that most assuredly would come from clear thinking people?

He is not brave, as some suggest, but very much deluded and confused. I understand that people that do such things have a far higher incidence of suicide . . . I suppose because the make-over does nothing to solve the root cause of their torment.

I have always wondered why any ethical doctor would preform sex change surgery. The long term physical affects of the surgery and especially the hormone treatments have to place the person having the surgery at greater risk of heart disease and maybe cancer. But doing this surgery to satisfy someone’s sexual fantasy the surgeon is shortening the life of the patient.

We’re all born with a proclivity for sin of all kinds. If any of us could be perfect; Christ wouldn’t have had to die. That doesn’t mean that we have to give in and follow our impulses just because it’s hard not to.

All that is required of Christians is to relate to Jenner what is going to transpire if he doesn’t repent and ask to be forgiven in the name of the sacrifice of Jesus, Our Savior. Christians aren’t required to give succor and support to one who continues to disobey The Word of God. We are rather to use The Word to reprove and exhort. Neither are we required, as Christians to eat with, associate with or have fellowship with those who defy His Word in spite of warnings. That particular falsity has evolved over time and has been used to feed many an evil cause.

Anyone who truly cares for one afflicted in this way will attempt to save their soul not their diseased mind and body.
Christians are to be servants of God, not of evildoers.

Applause isn’t the same as clap.

What about the woman he killed? What about the pain he has caused that family? Will the ESPY’s mention this poor woman? Did Vanity Fair?

I hope he is sued for everything he has.

No matter how you cut it, a lopadicoffme is nothing more than sexual mutilation.

Twenty-five years ago the American Psychiatric Association called what Jenner has a mental disorder.

Yes. Just like the vulgar Weimar Republic and we know the insanity and idol that environment created for the idiot Hitler Youth who believed whatever the “culture” vomited out and placed on a platform.

“Just” Republics are to promote “public virtue” always (Montesquieu). When you promote vile, evil behaviors and lies (He is a She), then that deforms the next generation. Children embed even irrational ideas since they are not capable of Reason in such a toxic, powerful environment where pictures are worth a thousand words to little children.

Normalizing evil, vile use of the body, like sodomy, is what the muslims do in Afghanistan (harem boys) and we all know how those boys grow up to hate and mutilate women and lust after males and boys and goats.

Culture matters-—and promoting Virtue is all that a Just Republic is supposed to do. Just Law can NOT promote evil, or vile use of human beings—they are unconstitutional, Null and Void-—CIVIL society demands people not deprived of DIGNITY ever—— which can’t encourage using human beings as a Means to an End-—like slavery, prostitution, sodomy marriage etc. can NOT be promoted in “laws” or culture. It has to be vilified (shamed) in a civil society where Individual Natural Rights are based on Right Reason (natural laws) and God’s Laws..

You are demanding that we set aside the truth of God in the context of this situation.

And the truth is that this is not an act of anguish on Jenner's part. It is an act of ultimate rebellion against his Creator.

Does the clay jar ask its creator, "Why have you made me thus?" So it follows: what right have we, who in truth are deserving only of God's wrath and judgment, to demand an explanation from the God of the Universe who knew us before we were knitted together in our mothers' wombs?

Your pithy, self-righteous demand that we ignore the sin smacks of cheap grace. And if Christ's sacrifice for my ongoing sinfulness is any indication, grace is astonishingly expensive.

Should we pray for Jenner? Absolutely. On the other hand, should we pat him on the back and tell him it's okay, that it's not his fault he's so tortured, that it's God's fault for making him so confused? Absolutely not.

It is better to tell the truth that hurts once and then heals, than to perpetuate a lie that kills always.

This poor, mentally tortured (man) could be given a clitoris and menstrual cycles and (he) will still not feel complete as a woman.

A brain transplant from a woman might work but, with his luck, it would be from a woman who was mentally tortured even after (she) was transgendered into a man.

I simply can’t fathom WHY someone born a man would actually WANT to have all the problems that go along with *being* a woman - the monthly menstrual cramps for years, the pains of childbirth, and all the other *stuff* that women are subject to in this life. - I was born a woman; there have been good and bad things that go along with the territory. - Bruce-Caitlyn will, I suspect, not find life as Caitlyn, the woman. to be the epitome of perfection.

Remember all the drama about photoshopping women on magazine covers to look artificially perfect? The libs had their panties in a bunch over that one.

The cover on Vanity Fair is no doubt the most photo shopped cover ever produced. Where's the hue and cry over making this freak look anything like a woman?
