Health/Medical Title: Princeton Prof: Transgenderism Not Scientific, ‘Superstitious Belief’ Robert P. George, the McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence at Princeton, sent out a tweet late Sunday evening questioning the science behind the transgender movement, in reaction to the Obama administrations threatening letter to educators mandating accommodation of gender-confused teenagers. There are few superstitious beliefs as absurd as the idea that a woman can be trapped in a mans body & vv. But in the Age of Feeling . . . Robert P. George (@McCormickProf) May 15, 2016 George, who is also the Chairman of the US Commission on International Religious Freedom, sent our another tweet warning of the effects of the Obama letter on parents rights to educate their children in a safe environment. With Obamas bathroom edict, the right of parents to direct the upbringing and education of children is in graver peril than ever. Vouchers! Robert P. George (@McCormickProf) May 15, 2016 Georges concerns over the transgender movement echo the recent statement by the American College of Pediatricians, which argued forcefully against encouraging young people to question their own biological sexuality. A persons belief that he or she is something they are not is, at best, a sign of confused thinking, the doctors stated. When an otherwise healthy biological boy believes he is a girl, or an otherwise healthy biological girl believes she is a boy, an objective psychological problem exists that lies in the mind not the body, and it should be treated as such. The pediatricians noted that children who think they are a different gender than they are suffer from a recognized mental disorder called gender dysphoria. The letter from the Obama administration treats gender dysphoria as if it were a healthy, rather than pathological, mental condition. Transgender describes those individuals whose gender identity is different from the sex they were assigned at birth. A transgender male is someone who identifies as male but was assigned the sex of female at birth; a transgender female is someone who identifies as female but was assigned the sex of male at birth, the letter asserts. Though preceding the Obama edict by nearly two months, the Pediatricians statement reads like a direct response to the unprecedented measure. Endorsing gender discordance as normal via public education and legal policies will confuse children and parents, leading more children to present to gender clinics where they will be given puberty-blocking drugs, the physicians warned. Conditioning children into believing that a lifetime of chemical and surgical impersonation of the opposite sex is normal and healthful is child abuse, they concluded.

He is smart enough to fear God, not man. For Christ Himself has said: And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear Him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Yep
