A Major Church’s Vote On Transgender Mutilation Of Kids Is Dividing Christians

The Presbyterian Church USA (PCUSA) voted last week to support access to “all medically necessary, evidence-based gender-affirming healthcare” for all individuals, including minors.

Presented by the Cherokee Presbytery during the 227th General Assembly, the overture builds on the PCUSA’s existing non-discrimination policy regarding gender identity and sexual orientation by declaring support for access to “gender-affirming healthcare.” The organization views the 27 states banning or limiting youth’s access to life-altering gender procedures as banning “healthcare for minors.”
