Robertson called the procedure “radical”

What's with the scare quotes; if gender-reassignment surgery isn't a "radical" procedure than what is?

That passage deals with garments, not body parts. Pat may be right about the fact that there's no specific mention anywhere in the Bible about this being a sin - probably because there was no way of anyone changing their sex in those times. So now, to confuse matters, if we accept that it's not a sin for a man to become a woman, then after this change, based on the passage you cited, does he/she sin by wearing a dress or a suit?

I agree with Mr. Robertson. We are dealing with the physical flesh, which can have its abnormalities. I believe Transgender people may have been twins or something happened during the growth process inside the womb. I learned during my medical class many years, that there were medical abnormalities where a baby is born without genital (Boy nor Girl). Also if many of you notice, a female can have a male voice, facial hair, and may have attributes that of a male. Just like a male can have feminine attributes.

As for the Bible, I agree with Mr Robertson it is not a sin, but simply a physical abnormality that with today technology can be corrected once the child is a little older for him or her to decide which side the child leans to. It is not good to operate on them when infants only to learn later that was not the sex the child desire. For example, I recall a documentary where a child was born with no genitals - period. The parents decided they wanted a girl so they had the child operated. As the child grew older, the child became frustrated because the child felt male not female. When he became an adult he had a sex change operation to undue the damage of making him a girl when all the time he felt like a male.

Also I used to believe what many of you here think, it is a SIN. I can tell you from my experience it made me rethink. As a child, my family raised chickens. One day we had to round them up because we were moving out. As I was among them, at the corner of my eye I thought I was dreaming. I swore the hen just crowed. I shook my head in disbelief and thought I was just dreaming. Again it crowed and I turned to find the hen crowing. I thought this cannot be. I grabbed the hen, and I realized something I did not notice. The Hen had a body of a Hen, but had Talons of a Rooster, and a Comb of a Rooster. It made sense to me, the Hen hatched some chicks a year before but were taken away because she was trying to kill them. She would be motherly to them one day and turn around and try to kill them. I thought “this cannot be - God makes female and male period”. I then realize what if this Hen was meant to be a twin and just did not grow right. Can it be possible that it can happen to a Human? YES

I do not believe God makes mistake, I believe Children born with abnormalities is God’s way to make us see how we treat others. I will not jump on the bandwagon to be rude or crude because one is born like that.

Pat lost it a long time ago. I remember when he said that a man could leave his wife if she had Alzheimers because she wasn’t really “her” anymore.

Pat is provably a false prophet - always has been.

Okay. We donate to CBN because of its work in helping with disasters and feeding children overseas, while spreading the Gospel. That stops now. There are other organizations that do the same thing.
