Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone of San Francisco slammed puberty blockers and other transgender procedures for children last week, calling the experimental practices “terrible” and an affront to the “created order.”
“There’s so much scientific evidence of the harm this does to children, giving them puberty blockers, and not just in terms of their sexual development but otherwise, too, [and] in other aspects of physical health,” the archbishop said in a video interview with the Daily Caller.
“It’s terrible,” he said. “But the other side has captured the narrative and many people have been duped into thinking this way. It perplexes me, I don’t know how anyone could think that something that’s so obvious as ‘a boy is a boy and he needs to grow into being a man,’ … can be a question.”
Cordileone identified transgenderism as a consequence of a broader rejection of sexual complementarity between men and women. “I think it’s the next step of getting further and further away from the original created order of ‘male and female he created them,’” he said. “God created the human race male and female with the sexual complementarity, and the more we deny that and get away from it, the further and further away it goes.”
The archbishop also revealed to the Daily Caller that bishops are currently working to “give some guidance” about the “very alarming” trend of transgender procedures for minors. “This is a discussion that is emerging among the bishops and we are in the works of trying to grapple with this and give some guidance to our people,” he said.

The bishops take so long to do anything they’re usually years behind the times in responding. The society will have moved on to cyborgs and transspeciesism before the bishops get around to addressing transgender ideology.
This pink shirted father is damaging his daughter and the smiling doctor is in on the abuse. The poor girl is in the hands of monsters and she doesn’t even know it.
I encourage readers to listen to the actual interview with the Archbishop. His candor is refreshing and inspiring.
In addition to the transgender issue, he addresses Catholics in public life, religious liberty and abortion.

Where’s her mother? Why does she feel more acceptable as a male? We know non-reproducing Satan can only have children by causing people to morally sin.
Always explains why Satan goes after reproduction and sexually. He can never bring life, only death.
Think folks. Always pay attention to the end game.
Your comment makes no sense. Pay attention to the end game? Think? Maybe take some of your own advice. Just more trads with their self-delusions about having secret knowledge about endgames that others aren’t privy to. Think about this… if the devil wants more people in hell, he should want more reproduction and then tempt people. It makes no sense that the devil would want to stop reproduction. No sense.
Anonymous at 5:17 p.m., I don’t think you made an effort to understand Marie, who characterizes the transgender movement for kids as satanic, an idea for which I am in total agreement. The end game is both physical and spiritual death and the realm of sexuality is a favorite arena, albeit not the only one.
Unfruitfulness — sterile sex — is a very useful tool in turning people away from God and into licentiousness. Oh, and I attend a Novus Ordo parish.
Let me take a guess Marie. The young woman is probably being raised by two men and is taught to hate herself and wants to please her father, or the mother is a lesbian who agrees with this whole sick, sick scenario.
I don’t think that’s necessarily true. This problem of ‘transgenderism’, runs across the board. I am secular, don’t really care for religious theology but am very against this fad of transgenderism, ‘Drag Queen Story Hour”, and allowing biological men in girls/women’s sports.
I have always supported Gays, along with anyone to be treated decently, and fairly. But pushing this garbage onto children is absolutely despicable, and breaks my heart.
As someone who considers myself liberal there are people like myself who agree with religious organizations in regards to these matters. Maybe, publicizing more (if possible) or announcing these are also practical parental/cultural concerns, whether one is religious or not would help defeat the onslaught.
Well, LR, if you are more liberal on giving some tax money to poor families and more conservative on the moral issues, I would consider you moderate to moderately liberal, but if by liberal you mean supporting such things as “so-called same-sex marriage”, I would consider you wrong as such relationships encourage activities that destroy men’s bodies and take benefits that should be going to two heterosexual parented families and gives them to those who are not morally entitled to them. Children deserve both a mother and father whenever possible.

Child abuse, plain and simple!
This is all sickening. What in the world has happened to our world and the children and trying to change their sexual preference.
My God. God is not happy and unfortunately as long as Biden and the swamp are in the White House nothing can be done.
I have a feeling that the ones who are going to rise up in the near future are the ones who have been maimed by these people, and I would not want to be in the shoes of those who did or supported the maiming when that starts to happen.
God could have prevented Biden from being in the white house, but he didn’t. So at some level God must be happy with things.
Maybe God is giving him just enough rope to hang themselves as he did Judas. Biden still could repent, but that is very, very doubtful. People usually die at the end in the state of mind they lived. Read on line “Killing a Conscience in Seven Steps”.
So God makes the country suffer more just to prove a point to or with Biden?
It is happening, isn’t it. People commit the sins as God gives us all free will. He allows it, but does not condone it as your previous post implied. Those who suffer because of righteousness have their rewards, some now, some later in the afterlife, but you seem to doubt the afterlife.
God is not happy with things. God has told us to pray and to obey. Pray the Rosary daily. Pray for the end of the pandemic. Pray for the murders and suicides to cease. Pray for the conversion of sinners.
If God is not happy, why would you want to spend eternity with God?
God is probably allowing this evil be become more manifest so that we have to choose. Choose life or death. Choose good or evil.
