'Lack of Belief in Transgenderism' Is 'Incompatible With Human Dignity,' UK Court Says
h/t Instapundit
[PJMedia] In June 2018, David Mackereth, a British medical doctor and disability assessor, was effectively forced out of his job for disagreeing with transgender identity. He cited his Christian belief in Genesis 1:27, that God created humans male and female, along with basic genetics. He sued his former employer, the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP), claiming discrimination for his beliefs. Tragically, the employment tribunal ruled that he was not discriminated against, while actively demonizing ‐ if not outlawing ‐ his beliefs.

In a decision handed down Wednesday, the court ruled that Mackereth's disagreement with transgender ideology is "incompatible with human dignity."

...Ironically, the judges claimed to be upholding religious freedom.
Now let see you tell it to a Muslim doctor

#1 Belief in the junk science around 'transgenderism' is incompatible with mental competence.

It's in the same category as vaxxer madness.
