by Fr. Ioannes Apiarius –
\nBeing transgender is impossible. Humans cannot change their biologically determined sex. There is no such thing as a \u201ctransgender man.\u201d There is no such thing as a \u201ctransgender woman.\u201d No man can transform himself into a woman. No woman can transform herself into a man. It\u2019s stark raving madness. It\u2019s insanity. It\u2019s delusional, or more accurately, it\u2019s transdelusional.<\/p>\n
From the beginning God created us as male and female. \u201cSo God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them,\u201d (Genesis 1:28). Our biological sex, male or female, is determined by the X and Y chromosomes. Maleness or femaleness is established when a child is conceived. An embryo with two X chromosomes (XX) will be a girl and develop into a woman. An embryo with X and Y chromosomes (XY) will be a boy and develop into a man. Our sex is hardwired into our individual DNA and stamped into every single cell of our bodies. Sex cannot be changed.<\/p>\n
Men and women are genetically distinct individuals. This is an absolute scientific fact.<\/strong> This is a definitive biological reality. According to Dr. Michelle Cretella, executive director of the American College of Pediatricians, you \u201ceither have a normal Y chromosome, and develop into a male, or you don\u2019t, and you will develop into a female. There are at least 6,500 genetic differences between men and women. Hormones and surgery cannot change this.\u201d Those who undergo hormone treatments and sex reassignment surgeries do not become the opposite sex, they only feminize or masculinize their outward bodily appearance. It\u2019s medically and scientifically impossible to transform a man into a \u201cwoman\u201d or a woman into a \u201cman.\u201d<\/p>\n Men and women are genetically distinct individuals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n A man can have female hormone treatments. He can get breast implants. He can have buttocks augmentation. A man can have his testes and male member removed and reshaped into a counterfeit female sexual organ. (A transgender \u201cvagina\u201d is actually a permanent open wound that must be continually prevented from closing). But, he is still a man. He will always be a man, no matter how many female hormone treatments, breast implants, and other surgical modifications he undergoes. Every single cell in his body will still be male. He will continue to be a man, even when his outward appearance is contorted to simulate a feminine form.<\/p>\n Castrating a bull, removing his horns, and strapping milk jugs to his underside, does not transform him into a cow. He remains a bull; a very unhappy and irritated bull, but nevertheless a bull. Every single cell of his body remains a bull cell. He cannot be magically transformed into a cow. It\u2019s impossible, it\u2019s delusional. It\u2019s insanity.<\/p>\n But accepting madness as sanity is precisely what the LGBTQ cultural enforcers demand of us.<\/strong> They insist that we accept fantasy as reality, delusion as normality, and insanity as sanity. They demand that we call a castrated and dehorned bull a \u201ccow.\u201d They insist that a castrated man wearing a dress and high-heeled shoes is a \u201cwoman.\u201d Even if a man hasn\u2019t had sex reassignment surgery, but pretends he\u2019s a \u201cgirl\u201d while wearing women\u2019s makeup and clothes, we’re forced to call him \u201cmadam\u201d and let him use the women\u2019s bathroom.<\/p>\n Transgender fantasy is not reality.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n If you refuse to accept and affirm this delusion, the LGBTQ tyrants malign your refusals as \u201chate\u201d and accuse you of \u201cverbal violence.\u201d If you decline to use the required pronoun you\u2019re accused of \u201ctransphobia.\u201d If you refuse to play along with the transgender insanity you will be denounced and attacked. You risk losing your job, your business, and the ability to raise and educate your children as you see fit. You will be canceled. Already many LGBTQ activists want you to be punished for \u201cmisgendering,\u201d and some believe you should be in prison for refusing to comply with their preposterous speech codes.<\/p>\n In spite of such threats, we must stand our ground. We cannot comply with lunacy. We cannot embrace lies and call them truth. A lie remains a lie no matter how many times it\u2019s repeated. Transgender fantasy is not reality. Transgender claims are not science. Transgender procedures are based on lies. And lies cannot heal minds, bodies, and souls. Lies do more harm and lead to greater suffering.<\/p>\n lies cannot heal minds, bodies, and souls<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Transgender medical treatments do great harm to suffering patients.<\/strong> The catastrophic and deadly results of transgender procedures confirm these truths. Studies have shown that the suicide rate among transgendered individuals who undergo sex reassignment surgery is 20 times higher than the suicide rate among the general population. Evidently sex reassignment procedures don\u2019t really heal the patients. That\u2019s because it\u2019s not possible to solve psychological disorders or spiritual confusion via the chemical castration of healthy bodies or surgical mutilation of healthy organs.<\/p>\n We cannot live by lies, believe lies, embrace lies, speak lies, and lead others astray by perpetuating lies. It\u2019s impossible to help others by lying to them. It is not loving to enable someone\u2019s transgender fantasies. It is not compassionate to embrace and deepen a person\u2019s gender confusion. It is not loving to encourage anyone to harm his or her healthy body in the false belief that he or she can transform his or her sex. It is not compassionate to shove someone further into self-deception in order to appease the LGBTQ bullies.<\/p>\n The truth is that transgenderism is madness. It is not science. Its assertions are impossible. No man or woman has ever been able to change their sex, ever. It\u2019s an absolute lie. It\u2019s transdelusional.<\/p>\n \u2013 Fr. Ioannes Apiarius<\/p>\n by Fr.
