There were several people in this group of people who had been through gender reassignment surgeries when very young children...

So what? The only thing that is being done is removing one type of genitalia in favor of another, and hoping in the 50-50 chance that exists that when the physical gender manifests itself it will be the right one.

How does that equate to God being fallible? Because this is not something God is doing, it is something parents are doing to a young child.

You are entirely missing my point...there are people saying that God does not make mistakes, and that the way a baby is born is not a mistake...I did not say that God made a mistake, what I said was that not all babies are born perfect, as some would assert, because they are claiming that God makes no mistakes...

Obviously there are babies born all the time, with birth defects, some minor, some serious, even life threatening...and those birth defects can be resolved, often surgically, giving the baby a wonderful chance at life...the parents are also doing that to their child, because it is giving the child a good chance at life...

No one is blaming God for anything..There are those who would say, that God created that child with its birth defects, others would say that the child was created perfect and something else caused the birth defects...fixing the birth defects is not a matter of laying blame on anyone...its a matter of trying to do what is in the best interest of the child...
