Every child is expected to be conceived with XX or XY chromosomes, grow up to be either a man or a woman, to have internal and external sexual organs which are clearly male or female, and to be sexually attracted to members of the "opposite" sex when they mature. Finding Home -- I wandered in darkness until I was 23. That was when I went to my first NA meeting. "God, grant me the serenity to accept the thing..." God? That''s been little more than profanity for the last 15 years... what am I supposed to do with this? I found out what I was supposed to do: Heal. Five years later, I found a new name for God. Allah.

Intersex Support Group International -- Welcome to the Intersex Support Group International, Intersex Support for and by Christian Intersexuals Intersexuality and Scripture -- It is not uncommon for Christian fundamentalists, faced with intersexuality as a brute fact, to adduce scriptural grounds for the condemnation of avowed intersexuality, at least, as ``unnatural'''' and as something which is at odds with the will of God as expressed in the order of creation. Minister works toward love of difference -- "Brad was taking a course from noted Christian ethicist Karen Lebacqz called "Ethics and Difference," and while his classmates wrote about skin color, disabilities, and gender (in the more binary sense), he decided to do his final paper on the topic of intersexuality.

Secondly, if they are, than guess what? Jesus still loves me for who I am."

The present bipolar nature of our society is part of the rejection of the ''third'', and the emphasis on opposition. Some of us want to reclaim our thirdness, not only for ourselves, but to go beyond, having the thought that it may be a necessity for the human species and even for this planet." Third - Bibliography of Transgender Spirituality Bookmarks -- Bibliography of TG Spirituality Transitions -- This was written to be presented to the Unitarian Universalist fellowship to which I belong, as part of a series of Welcoming Congregation services to help open up the fellowship to gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered individuals.
