In the UK, the National Health Service has thrown out a doctor:
A doctor has been sacked as a medical assessor for a government department after refusing to renounce his Christian belief that gender is determined at birth, the Sunday Telegraph can reveal. Dr David Mackereth has worked for 26 years as an NHS doctor but was told he could not be employed as a Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) disability assessor if he refused to identify patients as being of a sex that they did not see themselves as.
The 55-year-old father of four believes sex is genetic and biological, so established at birth.
Wait a minute. Holding the view that people are born male or female is now a theological belief? Do you see how radical this is? Heres the theology angle: this doctor was fired because he blasphemed against the militant new religion.

Gender lunacy is just an example of the broader diktat that reality itself is socially constructed.

Madness.
This is all part of mind control of society so that individuals cant rely on their own senses and knowledge to know what it right. They must be told by authority to keep them in line.

“Christian belief that gender is determined at birth”
How is that a “Christian belief”?

Sadly, England is just a year or two ahead of us. The father of lies is winning this one at the moment.

I wonder if Muslim doctors are put to this litmus test. Of course, Islam allows lying for self-protection, so I could see a Muslim doctor agreeing vigorously in English or French that gender is fluid, and white people can be operated on willy-nilly, but going home to his/her family and saying, in the native tongue, that this is just more infidel madness, and any teen who tries this at home will be drowned in the family pool.

Yes, it’s interesting how coordinated these new NWO rules are...almost like they got together and decided to force the idiocy on us for some reason. Perhaps the reason is to get rid of that pesky Christianity in which we believe in God and not government.

...Christian belief that gender is determined at birth
How is that a Christian belief...
It may have to do with God’s creation of two sexes Adam and Eve.

It's not a belief, it's a demonstrated fact.

“Gender fluidity” is the same kind of “science” as globull warming.
