Mentally ill morons. Simple. Case closed..
Once again that statement that you quoted is an example of people talking only from a snippet of the bible and disregarding everything else. Take for example god wanted you do be a woman, and put you in a mans body so that you could overcome it. The statement works both ways. In my case for example, i was not religious before I transitioned now i am. I needed god to help me through my transition and it brought me closer to him. If my transition was wrong, only GOD can tell me, no one else has the right because only GOD is the final judge of your life, and everyone else is filled with sin and bias. If you read the bible fully it basically has a simple message, believe in god, believe in yourself, be a good person, and you will be rewarded, but people are too busy picking whatever lines suit them to see the whole thing. I once got into a biblical argument with a priest, he quoted one line after another why i couldnt be TS, i quoted one line after another saying i could its really not a battle either side could win, the key is to humble yourself and admit, i really dont know what god's thinking.. so i will leave it to god.
See when i started my transition i prayed. I had never done that before, but for the first time in my life i felt i needed more strength then what i had at the time, i also remembered "God helps those who help themselves". I decided to believe in that statement at the same time, I made a deal with god in a fashion, I would give the transition 100% of all i got, and he would have to do the rest, and so i did my part, and god did the rest.... i went from being a failure that only wanted death to being a total success that enjoys living everyday. Whether you believe god did this or not doesnt matter, what matters to me is that i believe it, and you are free to do and believe in whatever you like, its not my business.
