Bree's faith


So Bree obviously isn't a practicing Christian; she can barely find the words to pray for a meal. But she makes a couple extremely Christian remarks.

"So you don't have a right to belong to a church? My body may be a work in progress, but there is nothing wrong with my soul. Jesus made me this way so I could suffer and be reborn the way he wanted me!"

This holds the Gospel of Jesus in its essence - Creation ("made me"), death ("suffer"), rebirth into God's goal. In Christianity, every person is a work in progress - on our way to becoming more like Christ.

Agreed. That's the spiritual truth that all of us searching for and usually find on our journey. As we're getting older the more we're finding ourselves, our potential, our purpose in life and the essence of who we are, which makes sense why some ts people starting transition so late, some people simply have strong sense of themselves early on, and some build it later on.

I'm not certain if this is so, as something that has always baffled me is how so many transgenders are sexually involved with women (marriages, etc.), fathering 2, 3, etc. children as males, then after transition they claim to now only be attracted to men. I must admit, this is something that I've never understood. Weren't they attracted to men before, and if so why did they marry women?

I'll admit, being transgendered myself, I'd vomit if I had to have sex with a woman. That just isn't something that I've ever been interested in or wanted to do. Couldn't even 'fake' it.

Pressure from society/family/religion, or they just haven't figured themselves out yet or aren't willing to admit it to themselves.

Social expectations and norms.
