Christian doctors' view on gender transition:
Here are excerpts from the CMDA statement published (with 88 footnotes to medical articles):
“At the heart of disagreement over transgenderism is a difference in worldviews. If the human body is nothing more than the product of mindless, random, purposeless physical forces, then one may do with it what one wishes, even to demand medical and surgical cooperation in projects to alter, amputate, or reconstruct normal tissue to conform to the patient’s revised psychological sense of identity. If, on the other hand, our bodies are an inseparable aspect of our true selves and are a good gift from God, who has designed the sexes to be wonderfully paired, and who has a purpose for humanity, then respecting the gift of given sexual identity and the ensuing moral obligations to our neighbors is the surest path to human flourishing .”
“Sex is an objective biological fact that is determined genetically at conception by the allocation of X and Y chromosomes to one’s genome, is observable at birth, is found in every nucleated cell, and is immutable throughout one’s lifetime. Sex is not a social construct arbitrarily assigned at birth and cannot be changed at will. Human beings are sexually dimorphic. Male and female phenotypes are the outworking of sex gene expression, which shapes sex anatomy, determines patterns of sex hormone secretion, and influences sex differences in the development of the central nervous system and other organs …. CMDA recognizes that exceedingly rare congenital abnormalities exist …. Anomalies of human biological sex are conditions rather than identities, something one has rather than who one is. Disorders of sex development … do not constitute a third sex.” (more in the link) www.christianitytoday.com/2025/02/c…
