In heaven we'll be neither one sex nor the other... so why are transsexuals treated so disrespectfully ?

Answer 1

The old men who normally come up with those rules and incite others to attrocities involving alternative sexualties and so on are themselves unsure of their identites and sexuality. The best way to keep the heat off of yourself is to turn it up on someone else.

Answer 2

I don't know where you got the idea that we will be neither one sex nor the other in heaven. If that were so, why would God have created both male and female on earth? I don't believe that He does things for arbitrary reasons (and I do believe that the being we call God is a *He*).

On to your actual question, the reason transsexuals are treated so disrespectfully is the same reason why any person or group of people are treated disrespectfully. I believe it basically boils down to fear. Fear of the unknown, fear of what is different or that we don't understand. It could be fear of admitting that we don't know everything, and are thus fallible. Perhaps even sometimes fear that others might think that we are the different ones and treat us poorly in response.

Being disrespectful to ANYONE for ANY reason is a defense mechanism, trying to make up for a strength that we lack in ourselves.

Answer 3

Transsexuals are treated the way that they are due to fear. Since the beginning of time anyone that had the nerve to be different from the rest of 'crowd' (which ever crowd any particular follower was apart of) has been mistreated due to the fear of the unknown. I'm sure that transsexuals mistreat others due to a fear of not knowing as much about that person or group of people as they do about themselves. The best any of us can do is to treat everyone as if we were expecting a mirror response from that person. If we all acted in that fashion then we would all receive the treatment that we deserve.

I personally do not believe that heaven is anything more that a way for the strong to control the weak. Even though I place myself into the category of the weak I refuse to be controlled by anyone other than my bill collectors and at least I get something for the control they have over me & my money.

Answer 4

According to Baddeley's model of working memory, you have a phonological slave and a visuospatial slave. They both access your subconscious which, according to Freud, is the part where you put the sex and violence possibly specifically connected to alleged justice issues that you don't want or know how to think about. The visuospatial slave can be further subdivided into two sections - the attributes of objects such as shape, colour, and texture and spatial attributes such as location and movement. Autogenic training is a technique which uses you as your own hypnotist, using visualisation and self-affirmation techniques to train yourself. Personally, I think this is just a band-aid to get yourself in something of a working order so as to go out and face the world after you've done nothing (or not known what to do) about sex and violence you've encountered that hasn't seemed just. You can keep on going with it, cry over it, tell somebody about it, but using it as a springboard to spiritual heroism because you've "seen" it is only going to stretch your working memory resources thin. Conversely, there are those who worship messengers who repeat what they've seen (Colossians 2:18) so there's a situation where people are reconfirming each other's attitudes about awfulness.

There is a lot to be said for blaming cult members for cults, rather than the leaders who are often kept away from reality by the members so that they will make decisions that are favourable to "freedom" as if more information about the world will elicit less "permission" to live.

In any event, transsexualism is Stage 7 of autogenic discharges. If you try to be your own hypnotist because you don't trust anybody else to be, you will send yourself into a psychosis. This is essentially what cult members require of gurus. They can virtually keep them under house arrest simply by failing to realise that when the cult leader has a "headache" and can't move, THAT'S NOT A SIGN OF SPIRITUAL INSIGHTS COMING THROUGH. I can't stand violence or neglect. There's so much of it, and it doesn't help when people write STUPID questions like this one. Have you never heard of a dictionary, an encyclopedia, or the internet for research?

I don't understand why there are so many questions on this forum that repeat each other? Don't you people know how to read? I haven't asked that many questions and I write long answers. Spend more time on each question. Are we real human beings here, or just fooling around the edges?

And stop talking about everything religious like it's the new perverted person's beach ball. It's not intelligent. And leave Jesus' backside alone. He allegedly died remember?

Walt, I admire your allegiance to nature themes in order to express those more intimate moments you share - pines and shell are truly very inspirational.

Answer 5

I see little to no understanding about transsexuality/transgenderism from some of the other answers here so I will try to give a better one.

People fear what they do not understand. Many people do not understand people who are transsexual and do not understand what goes through their minds and what all they've gone through.
I urge people who want to learn more to actually go read up on transgender and transsexual persons, more specifically go look up gender identity disorder (GID) or gender dysphoria. Check my source below.

Answer 6

You'll have to be more specific. Transsexuals make me uncomfortable because I don't like going to the ladie's with them. Actually, I feel uncomfortable all round. I suppose I like people to be pigeon-holed.
I've known quite a few, loved one or two, but I don't understand them.
However, I would never treat them disrespectfully. People are people, until proven otherwise.

Answer 7

It has nothing to do with heaven. It has to do with most folks not understanding the transsexuals are people first and trapped in the wrong biological body second.
Transsexuals, male or female, are only trying to "become" , in whatever way they choose to do so, the gender they know they are inside.

Answer 8

If there is no differnce between the sexes in heaven I'm not going. What a boreing place it would be.

Answer 9

Why is joking a sin? Where is the sin. Besides I'm not even a Christian. Did my smoking question strike a nerve? Kisses BB

Answer 10

That is a good point!

I think that each religionist makes up the criteria to get into heaven themselves, so they include/exclude whomever they feel like it.

That's why religion is completely unreliable as a moral code system.
