Biden's Idea of Allowing Gender Transitioning from Age 8 'Unacceptable' - Russian Orthodox Church
Interfax ^ | 12/22/20

Moscow, December 22, Interfax - The Russian Orthodox Church has strongly spoken out about the proposal by United States President-elect Joe Biden to allow gender change for children from the age of eight.

"In regard to Biden's decision about an eight-year-old child being entitled to change sex, I perceive such statements as being blasphemous. I think that people propagating such ideas should be locked up in prison because, from my standpoint, it is a crime to maim an eight-year-old child or an even a sixteen-year-old," the Synodal Department for External Church Relations' head Metropolitan Hilarion told the Church and the World program on the Rossiya-24 television channel.

Children should at least grow up before making this kind of decision, because if someone, who transitioned, regrets it later, the process is irreversible, he said.

"To understand how this is all happening, just go to the website of some clinic that offers this sort of service, and read how the gender-change surgery is happening. It's hair raising what you'll read there, that's why even for a grown-up such an operation is none other than disfiguring and maiming a person," the Russian hierarch said.

"To inflict such surgeries on children is a crime which must entail criminal punishment, as does the propaganda of this sort of operations," he said.

It was reported that during his election campaign Biden said a child as young as eight can decide whether they want to transition.

In this world 🌎; there are two sexes - male and female

There could be as many “genders” as you like

That being said if you have any sexual functionality as a human being on this planet then I would tell you to stick with what the kids spirits above give you

Specifically if he would like to give birth to a child as a woman , or procreate as a male

Cutting up your genitals is a very poor idea - and you will regret it

The jury is not out on the subject

Taking hormones of any kind is incredibly stupid.

I don’t give a crap with any doctor says - you’re playing with 🔥

Again the most important word in the English languages is. relationship

Thank God - literally- that at least one churchman has the faith and courage to say this.

Biden is a very sick man. The worst of his obvious illnesses is that he utterly lacks a moral compass. And the acorn doesn’t fall far from the tree—look at his worthless drug addict whoring thief son Hunter. And his brother James. Scum of the earth through and through. A perfect tool, with the Alzheimers rendering him a drooling idiot, for the evildoer far leftist commies.

While it may be fun for people on our side to ‘bash the Russians’ (a bit of fond Cold War re-living), think of just who we’re now teaming up with when we do bash them...
