Abstract
Societal views of the place of transgender and intersex individuals and the right of such individuals to participate in activities and institutions previously made unavailable to them based on sex are changing rapidly. While many institutions are allowing such people to engage in activities previously reserved for the sex opposite from their biological sex, the Catholic church must stand firm in its fidelity to the truth of human sexuality. However, groups within the Church have expressed differing views; namely, the German Synod and its recent text titled, “Dealing with Gender Diversity.” This paper seeks to examine the synod’s conclusions and refutes them using appeals to Orthodox Catholic teaching.
