finnthetransboi:loopylupita423:@orca-boy-wonderThe comic is a more than sufficient response, but for those who like to argue here are three obvious rejoiners, in a religious vein, to the Mistake’s argument:1) “Exactly. God made my Spirit as well as my Body, and my Spirit is certain that this Body is not yet complete. We are all born with adversities which God means us to overcome and this is mine; it is obviously the path which God wishes me to walk because it was the path I was given, and God makes no mistakes. By walking it I only do God’s Will, and by decrying it you deny it and you deny me, you spiritual sibling, which Jesus taught you not to do anyway. How sincerely should I take your concern for God to be, when you ignore his Gospel where it is inconvenient for your prejudices?”2) “Sure, and God makes people who, at birth, need surgery to be whole and healthy all the time. Why do you object to that in my case, and not in others?”3) “That’s an argument against medicine, not Transness. If God makes no mistakes, then when people become ill, that is God’s will too. If we are to say seeking medical intervention in one case is counter to God’s will because it undoes something God has willed to happen, then we say seeking medical intervention in any case is counter to God’s will for the same reason. But of course this is ridiculous: the knowledge and skill of medicine, as of all Sciences and Scholarship, comes from God too, who is Truth. God wills us to know these things, or we would not know them. When we use our knowledge to solve problems, we make use of God’s gifts. If God makes no mistakes, then why does this treatment exist in the first place?” -- source link
