One of the Templeton fellows today gave a presentation about transgender Christians and the church. During the Q&A, someone in our group put forth a question that hadn't occurred to me, concerning this issue. If we accept that people who claim that they need to have sex reassignment surgery to make their bodies conform to who they believe they truly are, then on what basis do we deny people who claim that they need to have one or more limbs amputated to feel whole their moral and/or legal right to the desired surgery?

There is a good point in it that if you want an amputation and get disability, it is not the same as getting srs. I don't think people should be paid for choosing to have their limbs cut off or creating intentionally any other disability.
