Why do they do this? This is a mad case of double think.
While I support the idea of a human born male deciding they are more suited to being female I also recognize someones actions being in the name of Islam if it follows the teaching of Islam to some degree. So they are a Muslim.

Ofc liberal elites hate this as they are so happy for scores of Muslims to settle within their countries.

This is a fine case of liberal logic where their ideology is so intrenched lots of doublething is required most news stories being printed.

I think the double think you refer to is a result of so called victim hierarchy.

Muslims are seen as more of a victim than women and maybe they are, i don't know.

It doesn't justify a victim hierarchy. All victims matter and movement's that undermine that are the enemy. Like feminism.

Your premise is cockomany.

No he isn't. He can cake on make up and put on dress. Cos-play/Role-play.

Just how many have you read about that make false claims re Muslim?

I thought he was talking about how some people refuse that many terrorists are Muslims. Like they believe once you conduct terrorism, you are no longer a Muslim.

It's like a defense against anti-refugee attitudes. Most the refugees are Muslims but the terrorists aren't.

Well, that's my point. If someone claims to be a Muslim but their actions are unpopular then they are told that they are not really a Muslim even though they take said actions in the name of Allah. Who are we to decide if they are not Muslims due to their actions? Islam doesn't have a central body like other religions so as long as you follow parts of the Quran then you can make a claim on Islam.

Liberals are so set on saying these Isis members are not real Muslims but they have no right to say such.

Okay, Yes some other religions lack a central body but still call themselves Christian. But we're moving off topic now.

OK so back to the topic
> Why do liberals insist on allowing labels they agree with but denying labels they don't?

Just taking a stab at this but my guess is that Liberals are more liberal about labels and its the conservatives that are more rigid.

All the churches I am aware of in Christianity will allow you to enter the sanctuary. Mormons have hard as fuck rules to keep you out. Under the current rules Jesus and his band of merry men would not qualify for entry.

Nor can I see one reason why my version of cockomany, does not convey a meaning that everyone here will understand. It wood meet with Mark Twain's apporval.

I was invited to a Mormon church by 2 young women once. They didn't seem too closed to me, actively recruiting. What do you mean?

But isn't it a double standard that liberals support people's choise to change ones gender at will then enforce their gender pronoun but then deny someone else the religious label they live under?

Oh yes you were invited. Now do this for me. You were formally invited. Now go to that local Church and see if they will let you in.

Good luck with that. Yes they want you to join. Does not mean you can walk on up and walk on in.

I've gone to Mormon church more than a few times just tagging along with a friend. They had me go to their youth group and closed dances as well. Very open.

I have family members who cannot enter the temple. What can I do to help them feel included in my temple?

This can be a tender subject. Since the temple is the house of the Lord, dedicated to Him, those who enter must hold a current temple recommend, which certifies that they are living by the standards He has set. However, those who do not have a current temple recommend are welcome on temple grounds, and most temples have a room where they can wait while family members are being sealed. A couple with family members who cannot enter the temple may invite their bishop or another Church member to stay with them in the waiting room.

I don't see the cognitive dissonance in this one because these people always invoke the No True Scotsman fallacy with regard to Christianity as well.

I think the point being missed here is that religions have established doctrines and ideas associated with membership. Granted, these are frequently broken by practitioners and some pick and choose which ones they feel are important to follow and which aren't. On the other hand, there are no defined doctrines of what being a woman means. Sure, you could go by chromosomes, but it won't stop you from having to deal with people who aren't comfortable with the expectations associated with their chromosomes. You could go by ability to reproduce, but there's plenty of women who are completely barren. If you disqualify people who can't reproduce as being not female, (and not male for the parallel case), then what are they? After all, they are still human, and still capable of participating in the act of sex, even if it is only recreational. At the end of the day, how we present ourselves is all we can control. How we are perceived is entirely out of our hands.

Aaaand, as usually happens, I'm not quite sure where I was going with this thought. This is why I can't write papers. Fuck.

Star Wars sums main stream religion right up with psychological approach that is dual. Which I kind to like, to choose.
