The Problem with Christians

[Esquilax]

Then why was homosexuality listed as a mental health disorder by the American Psychiatry Association all the way up to 1973?

Entrenched, baseless homophobia promulgated by your religion?

If that's the question you're going to ask, like it's some kind of gotcha, then why hasn't the fact that the APA hasn't had that classification for over thirty years presented the perfect counterpoint for you?

If a male minor age 14 is interested in sex with a 22 year old female, how is that damaging?

How is that in any way relevant to the thing you were quoting?

Really??? Then how come the massive suicide rate among transgendered people?

"The prevalence of suicide attempts among respondents to the National Transgender Discrimination Survey (NTDS), conducted by the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force and National Center for Transgender Equality, is 41 percent, which vastly exceeds the 4.6 percent of the overall U.S. population who report a lifetime" UCLA School of Law.

With a suicide rate 10 times higher than average, the "treatment" is clearly an abject failure.

And you've ruled out contributing factors... how? Factors like, say, just for example, off the top of my head... the intense, constant, aggressive and oftentimes violent campaign of harassment, bigotry, and hate that your side has been waging against them for decades?

No, it has to be that they transitioned at all, I'm sure it has nothing to do with the out and out war christians have been fighting against these people who've done nothing wrong, nor the increased levels of harassment, assault, rape, and discrimination they face on a daily basis through no fault of their own, because of people like you. You think maybe their suicide rate might go down if you and yours stopped trying to hard to make it culturally acceptable to treat them as second class citizens?
