Yes I'm the boogeyman.
Actually I just want to nudge people in the right direction. Show them a better way. Keep them from destroying themselves with sin. Save their soul.
You seem awfully judgmental, and uncharitable with your aspersions for someone who calls everyone else hateful.
"Nudge them." The "nudges" have resulted in tremendous violence and harm towards people who cannot help who and what they are. The uncharitable judgement is from you and yours.
So here's where we see you're just trolling. You complain about comparisons to pedophiles and rapists but the logic you use is the same: they can't help who and what they are, can they? They suffer harm and violence because of it. So why marginalize it?
But consent and harm right? There are people on the left who have (and are) arguing those are social constructs. Remember the philosophers quoted earlier in the thread? When you've succumbed to critical and queer theories you've disarmed yourself. Be glad you still have Christian social mores left from the past to help you find a line.
Are you saying that trans people are equivalent to rapists? Are you that incapable of understanding the difference? Your religious ethics are a social construct as much as government laws and social mores. There are reasons for the lines that we have drawn and those lines do move. Your interpretation of religious ethics and requirements is not the same as Medieval or Late Anquity Christians. Why? Different societies constructing different understandings of their texts based on a range of influences. You can cherry-pick problematic arguments from certain people and claim "that's what all LGBTQ people want," but it's not the reality. It's just how you justify your bigotry towards transgender people.
