ezs note:  I ran across Rev. Ed Trevors and got a breath of fresh air.  Most of what passes off as 'Christianity' is pure crap.  We may not see every line side to side (he is a [real] Christian, I am a Baha'i), but, geez, this guy is good. I'll do my bit to promote him.

By the way, if you're free on Saturday nights, Ed broadcasts live on most Saturday nights at 7:30 pm (Eastern time).  Look for :

ezs note: When seeing a doctor for the first time, don't be afraid to ask.  Like what school she/he went to.  Like how much coursework in transgender medicine was given as part of overall medicine.  If you don't ask, you are at their mercy!
