Tucker Carlson has raised controversy, which he is the master of doing, with a TV segment where he argued that trans ideology and Christianity are in inevitable conflict as the doctrines have irreconcilable philosophical differences. The trans ideology holds that people can be born with the “wrong” sex/gender, and this needs hormonal, surgical (perhaps) and cultural transformation, and it is right to do so, as sex and gender are social constructions. Of course, the medical interventions seem somewhat inconsistent with this, as if it as all a social construction one could simply transform oneself through acts of will. But, anyway, Christianity, at least the non-woke version that we hold to, holds that people are not born in the wrong bodies, and were assigned a sex at birth. There are rare cases of inter-sexuals, people who do not have typical male or female sexual characteristics, but intermediate types do not invalidate the norms, any more than the existence of organisms having characteristics of both plants and animals show that there are no plants or animals. As Tucker Carlson strongly argues, these distinct philosophies are in direct conflict, and there seems to be a period of stormy conflict ahead. Lots of references to guns follow in the articles linked below, which is interesting given that the Left, elsewhere, are so strongly opposed to guns. Oh … that is guns in the hands of conservatives!
