143. Homosexuality: Homosexuality is an abnormal lifestyle choice. We believe there should be no granting of special legal entitlements or creation of special status for homosexual behavior, regardless of state of origin, and we oppose any criminal or civil penalties against those who oppose homosexuality out of faith, conviction, or belief in traditional values. No one should be granted special legal status based on their LGBTQ+ identification
144. Gender Identity: We oppose all efforts to validate transgender identity. For the purpose of attempting to affirm a person age 21 or under if their perception is inconsistent with their biological sex, no medical practitioner or provider may engage in the following practices:
a. Intervene in any way to prevent natural progression of puberty.
b. Administer or provide opposite sex hormones.
c. Perform any surgery on healthy body parts of the underage person.
145. No Taxpayer Funding for Sex Change: We oppose the use of taxpayer funds for any type of medical @#$%& treatments or sex change operations and/or treatments. This includes but is not limited to military personnel as well as inmates in federal, state, or local prisons or jails. Inmates must be housed according to their biological sex. No Federal, state, insurance, or probate monies may be allocated for the use of such treatment.
146. Counseling Methods: Therapists, psychologists, and counselors licensed with the State of Texas shall not be forbidden or penalized by any licensing board for practicing Reintegrative Therapy or other counseling methods when counseling clients of any age with @#$%& or unwanted same-sex attraction.

How far can one stretch the "Equal Protection for the Preborn" which they say the US Constitution recognizes from the moment of fertilization.
Can you claim a fertilized egg as a dependent? Will it count in a census? Can you use it as a passenger for carpool lane access?

For the record...
"The phrase "under God" was incorporated into the Pledge of Allegiance on June 14, 1954..."
AFTER a number of forumites were born (or "preborn").
