I believe in rationality and scientific facts.
Transgender people don't choose their gender identity voluntarily; this is demonstrably true and not up for dispute. And can you actually cite any examples of rapists dressing up as women to get into a bathroom? No, of course you can't. Why? Because a rapist isn't going to bother putting on a disguise for the 10 seconds it takes to get into the washroom. They don't have to -- they just wait until no one's paying attention.
Anti-transgender bathroom laws are based solely on irrational hatred for and fear of transgender people. There is no practical justification for them. And it's pretty bold to proclaim that your faith is the absolute truth on the subject, especially when facts on the ground prove otherwise. Besides, the US supports freedom of religion; if a person's actions aren't harmful (and using the toilet certainly isn't), why do you get to impose your purely religion-based rules on them?
Religion is an all encompassing word, just calling you human and criticizing you for it. Unless of course you claim not to be human but trans species, which would not surprise me.
Furthermore, it was YOU who claimed some sort of biblical context NOT ME. All I said was it is that unisex bathrooms are tacky and unacceptable and will never work. I never mentioned the Bible, but you ASSUMED it, in typical atheist fashion.
