In the Moscow-Pullman Daily News:
As I understand it, one of the surgeons at Pullman Regional Hospital wants to complete his abilities in surgery by learning how to make biological physical changes in the sexual appearance of a man to a woman by removing male organs and providing female hormones. As well as change female fixtures to male.
Even if permitted and if being successful, he would not be able to change the chromosomes in the cells. That would not change. Deep down the person would remain female or male or whatever the person was before the operation.
The new female would not be able to have children unless she was supplied with a uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries from some other woman. The brain of the person would remain the same as would the memories.
In the beginning God made one male and one female. He has been making 50 percent of each ever since. My suggestion is to not attempt to change God’s creation. It would only mess things up in the person’s life and the family of that person.
I do not think that the vow of the physician includes sex changes.Jim Wilson
