Transgender Woman says DMV Clerk Warned of Hell

... many Fundamentalist Christians still don't even bother to differentiate the three! I'm sorry, but this is a huge berserk button for me.

Careful with those blanket statements. I am NOT a fundmentalist christian.

I don't differentiate between the three either.

Say i was not also attracted to men, Dotard... i would be a 'transexual' (as if i could change the sex itself?), but i would not be homosexually interested at all. Transvestites are just wearing clothes that are typically associated with a different sex, and perhaps the likes of makeup... nothing inherently sexual about that: it's just clothes 0.o

A few days after Amber Yust visited the Department of Motor Vehicles in San Francisco to register her sex change from male to female, she got a letter at home from the DMV employee who had handled her application.

Homosexual acts, he informed her, were "an abomination that leads to hell."

The same day, Yust said, a DVD arrived from a fundamentalist church warning of eternal damnation for anyone "possessed by demons" of homosexuality. The DMV employee's letter had referred her to the church's website as a source of "critical information for your salvation."

Fascinating. If a person is possessed by a demon... and you attempt to warn the person... wouldn't you rather be warning the demon that is possessing them?

What's more, the DMV had kept the employee on in 2009 even after he refused to process another transgender woman's name-change application, Yust said in a damage claim filed with the state, the precursor to a lawsuit.

I don't think the former was so damaging at all... she didn't have to read the letter. This latter breach of service is much more critical, and i certainly hope that the woman mentioned received some compensation for the man's behavior.
