The Vatican drops a transgender truth bomb on ‘Pride Month’

At the beginning of the so-called ‘Pride Month’, the Vatican released its own take on the LGBT gender identity movement by reaffirming that there are only two genders – male and female He created them…

CNA – A Vatican department has issued a sweeping denunciation of so-called gender theory, and affirmed the principles of human dignity, difference, and complementarity.

“In all such [gender] theories, from the most moderate to the most radical, there is agreement that one’s gender ends up being viewed as more important than being of male or female sex,” the Congregation for Catholic Education wrote June 10, in a new document entitled “Male and Female He Created Them.”

“The effect of this move is chiefly to create a cultural and ideological revolution driven by relativism, and secondarily a juridical revolution, since such beliefs claim specific rights for the individual and across society.”

The document says it aims to set out an intellectual framework “towards a path of dialogue on the question of gender theory in education.”

Published at the beginning of “Pride Month,” during which many cities and corporations mark the campaign of LGBT advocacy, the document says that the Church teaches an essential difference between men and woman, ordered in the natural law and essential to the family and human flourishing.

“There is a need to reaffirm the metaphysical roots of sexual difference, as an anthropological refutation of attempts to negate the male-female duality of human nature, from which the family is generated,” the document explains.

“The denial of this duality not only erases the vision of human beings as the fruit of an act of creation but creates the idea of the human person as a sort of abstraction who ‘chooses for himself what his nature is to be.’”

As a devout Catholic I never had any doubt that the church would uphold the correct teaching on this, and I’m very glad they did.

I just wouldn’t have predicted such a move by the Vatican right at the beginning of the gayest month of the year.

I’m sure this didn’t sit well with a few wayward priests, but it’s nice to see the Vatican has found its voice on the issue in such a timely way.
