Kris Gambardella didn’t know Feral Pines, one of the 36 people who died in the Dec. 2 Ghost Ship fire in Oakland. But when Pines, a 29-year-old transgender woman, was identified in official accounts by the male name she had been given at birth, Gambardella, who is a trans man, took it personally.

I think that for the purposes of this particular discussion you are nit picking.

Males with Klinefelter syndrome are still males.

For all practical purposes, among human beings, there are two sexes.

However, suit yourself.

I don’t accept mental illness as normal. It only hurts the victim.

“If gender is fluid, then homosexual conversion therapy is back on!”

Excellent point.

Um, you must be one of them. Or be a vegan sympathizer ;-).

You apparently didnt hear, get, or appreciate the joke:

“How can you tell someone’s a vegan? Don’t worry, they’ll tell you in a few minutes.”

Don’t worry about it, satire, sarcasm, irony is wasted on a lot of people.

‘“There are no absolutes.” Francis Schaeffer said it best: “When there are no absolutes to govern society, society becomes the absolute.”’

Exactly. And in today’s terms “society” means the government.

You are the first person to respond to Schaeffer’s quote. I have posted it so many times, yet you are the first. Thank you. His son, Franky, has strayed from the faith of his father. Read his “The god who is there” and “How should we then live.” Classics in Christian thought and evangelism.
