Christianity and transgender

Within Christianity there are a variety of views on the issues of gender identity and transgenderism. The many Christian denominations vary in their position, ranging from condemning transgender acts as sinful, to remaining divided on the issue, to seeing it as morally acceptable. Even within a denomination, individuals and groups may hold different views. Furthermore, not all members of a denomination necessarily support their church's views on transgenderism.
Abrahamic religions have scriptures which describe God creating people "male and female", which is often cited in debates on this subject.
== Cross-dressing or gender expression ==
The Torah contains prohibitions about men wearing women's clothing, and women wearing men's clothing.
Because the Torah banned cross-dressing, it was once considered taboo in Western society for women to wear clothing traditionally associated with men, except in certain circumstances such as cases of necessity (as per St. Thomas Aquinas's guidelines in ''Summa Theologiae II''), or in the case of the "holy transvestites" (cross-dressing female saints), of which there were many. The limiting guidelines on acceptability seemed to focus on ''passing''; the taboo was most strongly focused on the blending of genders.〔Schibanoff, Susan. "Fresh Verdicts on Joan of Arc", ''Transvestism and Idolatry'', p39〕 Cross dressing is somewhat cited as an "abomination" in the Bible in the book of Deuteronomy (22:5), although even in the Middle Ages, its applicability was occasionally disputed and still is.
The 15th-century French poet Martin le Franc, concerning Joan of Arc:
:Don't you see that it was forbidden
:That anyone should eat of an animal
:Unless it had a cleft foot
:And chewed its cud?
:To eat of a hare no one dared
:Neither of sow nor of piglet,
:Yet should you now be offered any,
:You would take many a morsel.〔Merkle, Gertrude H. "Fresh Verdicts on Joan of Arc", ''Martin Le Franc's Commentary on Jean Gerson's Treatise on Joan of Arc'', p182〕
However, there are arguments about whether Jesus abolished the Torah law about clothing.〔Ph. D. G. G. Bolich,(Crossdressing in Context, Vol. 4 Transgender & Religion ), 56p〕 Jesus mentioned "Do not worry about clothes" on Matthew 6:25, Matthew 6:28, Luke 12:22.
