Transgender woman finds her way back to Christ
By - JAN BILES

Just Thought I would share this story i found today:

QuoteTOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — When Steven Michael Mott was 13, his father told him that if he could swim 100 yards, he could go to the river on their Eudora farm by himself.

The adolescent never worked so hard to reach a goal, and within a short time, he proved to his father he was a capable swimmer.

Going to the river alone meant Steven could borrow his sisters' clothing and be his "true self" without the fear of being discovered and punished, saying, "I didn't have words for it, but by age 7, I needed to express myself as a girl."

It would take more than four decades before Steven was ready to transition to Stephanie Michele Mott. The journey would be marred by alcoholism, homelessness, estrangement from family and, worst of all, a sense of abandonment by God.

Turnaround heck.  If he hadn't believed in God in the first place his life wouldn't have got so crappy that God himself had to intervene and change it's direction.  So what the article really said was: be an atheist and you mess up your life worrying about what God was thinking about.  Message Received! 


And if you don't think that's the message go back and read it again.  I'm quite sure that's not what he intended to say.  But it's the most elegant solution to the problem presented by the problem.
FIGHT APATHY!, or don't...

The alternative to Tekla's solutions is that you accept a modern view of G-d along the lines sponsor by the GBLT-accepting churches. But that would depend on your level of development
