The Truth Will Set You Free

I've been saying that education is the key, the answer to the question "why are trans or gay people (who are just trying to live their lives and have equality)  so despised?"

Lack of education, *false beliefs and peer pressure keep us in the dark from earliest childhood.

So, education has to start early, as in kindergarten or earlier with parents taking charge but most are already "brainwashed."
You certainly couldn't have gender variance taught in public elementary school or preschool, where it would really make a difference (or is it being done somewhere besides this private school) because of Christian fundamentalists and others that are just afraid of change.

Some will say "God doesn't make mistakes," and that "we are born either male or female." I agree that the Almighty doesn't make mistakes but He does make everything in nature different. Why is that so hard for people to understand? Nature is gloriously and infinitely diverse.

Can people not see the beauty in the diversity of nature? Unfortunately, most cannot because our minds are clouded from infancy. Our parents did the best they could based on their pasts, as did their parents and so on. Old ideas are ingrained and our environments tend to keep things as they've always been. We perpetuate old ideas by participating in rituals. We keep ourselves "brainwashed." Because of this, I cannot fault anyone for the way they think. I can, however, fault them for not trying to think.

What does it say for Christians, or for that matter, anyone so against this truth of nature, that they feel hatred? Do not most faith based religions believe that love is the ultimate goal? And along with love, acceptance?

What does it take to break through minds that are consumed with the idea that theirs is the "only right answer?"

All I can do as one person, is live the life I was given in the most loving and forgiving way I can.
