A young man arrived to demand a change of name on his baptismal certificate, from Luis to Samantha, a change from boy to girl. The dialogue became intense. Obviously I did not agree. 1/3
Him: it is my body, my decision. Me: creation is God's, you were born a boy, it is God's decision. Him: the state recognizes me as a woman and I demand that the church also recognizes me. Me: blessed be God there is separation between the church and the state, therefore, the church has 2/3
its own rules and the change you intend in your documents is not feasible. God and the church love you as all their children, but in this I cannot deceive me nor deny you, it is not possible. The young man withdrew vociferously. 3/3
