Was this a competition? I wasn’t aware. Congrats, you won!
No, it’s not a competition, but you implied that because you identify as a Christian and I no longer do, that you’re in some sort of position of authority over it. (“If that’s your only idea of Christianity” you said after tossing out some wild strawman I had nothing to do with.)

Oh you’re making demands of my belief system, when this thread is about whether Christianity is compatible with being trans? No Christianity, a dogmatic religion with Old Testament in its scripture is not compatible with being trans on an ideological level.
One is a hateful ideology that hates anything different. And one is just existing as a trans person. There’s no “trans ideology” that is being tested against it, but you’re asking as if there were, since the ideology that Christianity has to fight is progressiveness; “being woke”, as the kids say. The very thing that Star Trek enshrines.
What’s atheists have to do with this? I’m not an atheist, as I’ve told you.
And no, I won’t be hopping to your demands. You’ve answered none of my questions or explained your views even when I asked nicely. You simply ignore facts about Christianity, literally, and say “well that’s no longer the case” “you don’t actually have to believe in this sort of thing”.
You made a point about a gay man going to an imam. Don’t you think that with how large Muslim society is globally that there’s literally millions of LGTBQ+ youths who are battling against their even more dogmatic religion? Don’t you think it’d be kind of the same thing for a man to be gay and still defend Islam, as if you are (I’m not assuming anything and hopefully haven’t at any point) trans and defend Christianity?
Why is it different to be a gay man and defend Islam, than being trans and defending Christianity?
What “status” are you talking about? You do know why the nowadays politically incorrect phrase “dark ages” existed, right? Europe had the dark ages while Asia was bloomimg. First universities were Islamic.
Hell, Christianity got rid of Europe’s smartest. And forced it’s dogma down everyone’s throats for a few thousand years. Christianity came out on top because it was the least accepting and most punishing.
The amount of progressive sociological concepts that Christianity put down in just ancient Norse religion is massive. Greece too.
Do you think a gay man would have had trouble living 2500 years ago in Greece? No. Absolutely none. What about after Christianity took over…?

I added this comment as an edit to the earlier reply but it was so much later O thought yo write this as a specific comment as well. Edit dammit, sorry I forgot to add the part I meant to write about how being trans and Christian on a practical level is completely different and mostly up to the people in any given local religious community. ideologically it doesn’t fit but if you’re trans and are asking whether other Christians can accept you? Yes, ofc they can. Christians are great at hypocrisy.
