Ok, so all of us have heard this line before, "What you are doing is against God's plans for you." I got tired of getting mad at this so I sat down and honestly thought out what people are saying. I personally believe that the nation is comprised of 50% idiots and 50% fools, but that dosn't mean they don't get it right every now and again.
So after some thought I came up with my own reasoning, we are MEANT to do this. Now some might say 'duh!' to this but hear me out. When a child is born with anything that remotly is recognized as a disorder, they get sympathy and care. A child born with any metal imparment gets the same deal, but what does a trans child get but scorn and hate? Now it is recognized that we are born this way, and it is also recognized that trans is not in the bible. So if you go by what religious people have said for centuaries that if a child is born ddifferent, that this is God's will, where does that leave the trans child?
I beleive that we are born trans so that we can further human compassion and understanding. So that we might better understand this complex and intricate beauty called the universe. People look at God and forget what it is they are trying to define. God is God, and if we are created in his image, well, as crafty as humans can be, God has had millenia more practice at it. Afterall, if God created the universe, who are we to say he dosn't have the house advantage? God could and probably does have plans that strech centuries and millenia, with such subtle clues that only in hindsight can we start to see the plan.
A case in point is the way my mother and brother are still alive in again. Here is my roadmap...
Joined Navy->Got help on being trans-> Discharge-> came to chicago and found apartment-> had mother helping me move, who had brought little brother with-> at the same time, other family car wreacked at salt lake, with only my sister and father in it.
Had I not gone though with my discharge, my brother and mother would have been in that car, the chain of events leading to that car trip probably were not affected by me. But it was my life that affected my mother and brother enough to keep them in a car crash that reportably had paramedics expecting to find bodies, not minor injuries.
So tell me what you all think, how do you think being trans does or does not fit into the grand scheme?
