Amos Moses:
The philosophical contradictions of the trans worldview - Lifesite
An argument about transgender identities will be much more persuasive if it concerns who someone is, not merely how someone identifies. And so the rhetoric of the transgender moment drips with ontological assertions: people are the gender they prefer to be. That’s the claim.
Transgender activists don’t admit that this is a metaphysical claim. They don’t want to have the debate on the level of philosophy, so they dress it up as a scientific and medical claim. And they’ve co-opted many professional associations for their cause. Thus the American Psychological Association, in a pamphlet titled “Answers to Your Questions about Transgender People, Gender Identity, and Gender Expression,” tells us, “Transgender is an umbrella term for persons whose gender identity, gender expression, or behavior does not conform to that typically associated with the sex to which they were assigned at birth.” Notice the politicized language: a person’s sex is “assigned at birth.” Back in 2005, even the Human Rights Campaign referred instead to “birth sex” and “physical sex.”
The phrase “sex assigned at birth” is now favored because it makes room for “gender identity” as the real basis of a person’s sex. In an expert declaration to a federal district court in North Carolina concerning H.B. 2, Dr. Deanna Adkins stated, “From a medical perspective, the appropriate determinant of sex is gender identity.” Dr. Adkins is a professor at Duke University School of Medicine and the director of the Duke Center for Child and Adolescent Gender Care (which opened in 2015). Adkins argues that gender identity is not only the preferred basis for determining sex, but “the only medically supported determinant of sex.” Every other method is bad science, she claims: “It is counter to medical science to use chromosomes, hormones, internal reproductive organs, external genitalia, or secondary sex characteristics to override gender identity for purposes of classifying someone as male or female.”
This is a remarkable claim, not least because the argument recently was that gender is only a social construct, while sex is a biological reality. Now, activists claim that gender identity is destiny, while biological sex is the social construct.

From the "Media Bias/Fact Check" website: "Life Site News"
EXTREME RIGHT BIAS
These media sources are moderately to strongly biased toward conservative causes through story selection and/or political affiliation. They may utilize strong loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes), publish misleading reports and omit reporting of information that may damage conservative causes. Some sources in this category may be untrustworthy.
Factual Reporting: MIXED
Notes: LifeSiteNews “is a non-profit Internet service dedicated to issues of culture, life, and family.” The website was founded by the Campaign Life Coalition which has a far right bias. Both sources are anti-abortion and opposed to gay marriage. (11/25/2016)

Enniscorthy:
All your name calling aside, it's prudent to check your sources before posting to make sure they're reputable and not far-right jokes.

Amos Moses:
all of your opinions are dubious .............. and repeated lies ........ so dubious coming from you is ..... well ...... ahhhhh ..... DUBIOUS .........

Enniscorthy:
No, I cite reputable sources. You just happen to oppose those sources.

Amos Moses:
nope .... you cited a source that endorsed PEDOPHILIA [edit: The American Psychological Association] ........... and then took it back ..... and that is NOT REPUTABLE ....... "You just happen to oppose those sources." .... as you do SCRIPTURE ..... again ...... SO WHAT ................

Enniscorthy:
It didn't endorse pedophilia. It said that pedophilia might be an orientation. Once again, you fail to understand.

Amos Moses:
YUP ... it surely did ............ and you fail to acknowledge the truth ...........

Enniscorthy:
No, it didn't, but you're welcome to find the text that gave them free license to abuse children, either before or AFTER their retraction. I'll wait. Let's see how honest you really are.

Amos Moses:
yeah .... that is why we have homo-marriage .... because they said it was okey-dokey to play pokey wherever you want to ...... and they were about to do the same thing ........... and you are wrong .... and you are hurting people ............. and what you are saying is a lie ..... and so you are still a liar ..............
