I Don't Believe In God

ok so a popular topic of discussion on sw has been about transgender people and the media and so on.. You mostly hear from bible bashing morons who say its not natural and its going against gods plans and all that crap.
my question is do people actually read the bible? I assume those people don't, they just choose a religion to try to back up their beliefs..

anyway here is a actual verse from the bible
"but the lord said to Samuel, "do not consider his appearance or his height.... The lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the lord looks at the heart."
-1 SAMUEL 16:7

so how can people say being transgender and changing your body is against gods will, when apparently that isn't even important to the lord?

Plum: thank you. I don't consider myself religious because most religions I've encountered turn God into a bully (some more subtly than others) and do not fully understand the meaning of the gift of free will given to us by our creator.

I DO consider myself a believer in a loving Creator--and my belief is founded on faith--what God has revealed to my heart, not religion.

I believe God gave us the free will to do as we will and to find a deeper relationship with God by understanding ourselves better--and loving ourselves.

Soft breezes to you!
