Maybe that's the way magic works. Only so much to go around. If our rights, whatever they are..and if it even makes sense to talk about such things in a god fueled world....are in essence a magical substance flowing from a supernatural being...then who knows, right? That's the underlying cultural lesson to the proliferation of the divine. I think we can discard the contents and disparities between them all (and every other position) because this alone is an impossible situation for the organization of a community. In that it's become a matter of faith for a significant portion of our electorate that the country can be "fixed" by needling in on a half dozen athletes explicitly and the 1-2% of non binary people implicitly- we aren't going to find a tolerable resolution to "the trans issue"..but we aren't going to find any sort of resolution to any other issue.
It's an unserious way to organize a community, let alone run a country. The god fueled world (any of them, all of them, only one of them..whatever) may even work like that - but human societies don't. They fail like that. So I don't care why the nuts believe this shit. I don't think they even have a reason or an argument. In most cases I'd credit it all to pathology. It's not a rational position they were argued into so they don't know why they believe it and can't competently explain it. May as well ask a squirrel to bake a cake.
