Humanity is fine but other than saying biologically there are 2 sexes male and female what else is there to complain about?  Nobody loses any rights a biological male gets male rights a biological female female rights.  JK Rowling agrees.
To keep the conversation towards Thailand, Thailand only put the birth gender on passports despite its acceptance of transgender people.
Certainly something that should not be politically dealt with by a religious leader.

You'd better listen again.

Why Rowling, you mention her as some kind of guru.

Trump's response -- he calls her NASTY.

 

Yet he calls himself a Christian and Christians call him one of their own. I guess not putting his hand on a bible (two were offered by Melania) is kind of a hint.

 

 

How about keeping the church out of politics? 

she is not up their speaking as she claims in the "name of her god" she is speaking to her own agenda

if she wants to turn her pulpit into a political forum, it seems any response she receives is fair game.

as for Trump calling her "NASTY," you are cherry-picking. The Video states he called her tone nasty -- a significant difference.

Just like her, you are misrepresenting things to forward your own interests.

The only church I follow is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

let us leave out grifting his own edition of the bible!

All other versions of The Bible are free to anyone who wants one are they?   Or are they all, without exception, for-profit business enterprises?

Hi Lou. How is that NOT obvious ?? Just watch the two of them around each other. It looks a poisoned relationship. And it's widely rumoured that Melania will live in NYC not the White House. You think she is in denial about Trump's serial philandery ?? Trump is basically a sleazebag of the first order and she knows that.

 

Replying to another Poster earlier, whatever the situation about pre-nups, Melania would be rewarded handsomely if she left Trump, because it would be worth billions to stop her, dishing the dirt !

I wouldn't go as far as to say she is a guru but she does have a common sense approach to woke'ism'

Anyways that lesbian bishop was not just eluding to lgbt she also had opinions on immigration what does she want to be a bishop or senator needs to make her mind up

About Melania. She has signed prenups and also updated contracts.

There is no way she profits from dumping him. 

I wonder why she was wearing sunglasses, even inside the church.

Well, there are plenty of organisations which make the bible available free - The Gideons spring to mind, but there are others.

 

Personally I would suggest that in Trump's case the bibles he sells are purely intended to capitalise on his name, and make money for him.

Sooooo, just like most of our Thailand residing posters with their oh so young brides. Mine was 30 years younger than I ( she was 30 when she married me ), and didn't get rich off me, so not money.

rather funny you should choose to use your own relationship to make a point when you have spent years on here moaning about how she dumped you flat on your ass.

Take a chill pill fella I always think there should be an element of humour on these forums rather than being so serious all the time x

[jas007]

After his first inauguration, Trump had the good sense to skip the National Prayer Service.  He should have continued that tradition.

My you really do have reading issues, don't you?

I have pointed out a simple vocabulary error and ignored your attempt at "humour." 

There is no argument -- at no point did I question your message. 

As you have so astutely pointed out, we do agree on that.
