http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/trump-nominee-transgender-kids-part-satan-plan-article-1.3509987 One of President Trump’s nominees for the judiciary once lamented transgender children as part of “Satan’s plan.” Jeff Mateer, nominated to uphold the tenets of the constitution as a federal judge for eastern Texas, railed against homosexuality and transgender bathroom use in a 2015 speech, first reported Wednesday by CNN. Mateer, who now works as the first assistant attorney general of the Lone Star state, gave a 2015 speech at his job at the First Liberty Institute, where volunteer lawyers take on “religious liberty” cases. The address, which focused on First Amendment rights, included a laundry list of “disgusting” potential evils being forced on the country from the left-wing, including people marrying trees and people marrying pets. When discussing a transgender child’s suit about bathroom use in Colorado, he said, “a first grader really knows what their sexual identity? I mean it just really shows you how Satan's plan is working and the destruction that's going on." |

Happened in 2015 but first reported on yesterday...no agenda here.

Using the term "cultural Marxist" would have been more specific, and less religiously contentious.

As long as he doesn't let religion dictate his job I guess I'm okay with it
ETA: From personal experience with those types it is EXTREMELY difficult for them to keep religion and everything else separate. |

Trump, Transgender, and religious topics all rolled into one. This should go well.

My kid doesn't know what he wants for breakfast. How the fuck do you expect him to express gender? I do know that he likes staring at boobies so I can take a guess.

Good god that judge has no place in the judiciary. Talk shit about transgendered all you want, but blaming mental problems on the devil is insane.

Sounds good to me,
maybe we need to think about ruth bader ginsburg's comments when the liberals go nuts on this...... |

Teaching/encouraging kids to be ghey is Satan's plan.
If the kid is ghey already, leave him/her be. Had a coworker who as a boy wanted to be a girl. |

"Transgender" kids are victims of social justice warrior parents. If an adult chooses to live their life as the opposite sex I really don't care and wish them the best. Where I draw the line is when people are legally allowed to change their sex/gender, use the wrong bathroom, and play sports in the wrong league.
Tom can live as Sally but in the eyes of the law he should still be Tom. |

Promote that man to the Supreme Court, and have some of these "accepting" parents charged with child abuse.

Don't give a shit.
Trans people are defective people. You know how I feel about those. |

Of course not. But you also don't get to publicly declare how your religious beliefs impact your judicial decisions. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes |

Headline of the article not just twists his meaning, it's actually the exact opposite. The nominee believes that adults telling young children they are transgender is "Satan's plan", that adults twisting a child's unformed personality, forcing them to live as another gender and inflicting what he believes to be a mental illness (I'm reasonably assuming) is evil. He clearly believes that it's impossible for a six year old to be transgender, and I agree with that although I don't think Satan is involved.
Nominee: transgender first graders don't exist, trying to create them is evil because it inflicts life long mental illness Left wing press: he just said that transgender first graders are evil |

View Quote Look how far bent our country has become, without morals or teaching those whom would otherwise be left in the dark about Him is a good thing I suppose, if you follow Satan. Just like it says in the Bible: "Proverbs 22:6 - Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it." I guess that works both ways, but you're comfortable with that, eh? |

That's really worked out so well for us, hasn't it? Teaching children about God is bad, but teaching them about gay/transgender is good, am I right?

and people wonder why the left is trying to apply a religious test to judges.
Leave the Satan crap out of your professional speeches and come up with another way to phrase it. |

Would all the atheists in this thread have been in agreement if he used evil instead of Satan when saying adults who tell a child he can be whatever sex he wants to be are advancing an "evil" plan?
How about "insane" instead of evil or Satan??? |
