>>23381100>Trannies are believers too.Eusebius, the first and greatest Early Church historian, says of this young man’s act:
“While Origen was teaching in Alexandria, he did something that gave proof enough of his young and immature mind, but also of his faith and self-control. He took the saying, ‘There are those who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s sake’ (Matthew 19:12) in too literal and absurd a sense and he was eager to fulfill the Savior’s words and also to forestall any slander on the part of unbelievers for despite his youth, he held forth on religious matters before women as well as men. So he quickly carried out the Savior’s words, trying to do so unnoticed by most of his students. But however much he wished it, he could not possibly hide such a deed. Demetrius learned of it later, since he presided over the community there. He was astonished at Origen’s rash act.” Church History 6.8
Surgical castration is bilateral orchiectomy (removal of both testes). It drastically reduces the production of testosterones. In male animals it is called spaying or neutering.
Origen’s youthful and reckless audacity gave way over the years to a mature and disciplined mind. He produced a body of over 6,000 works that laid a firm foundation for Christian theology, apologetics and homiletics. Origen, one of history’s most genius of minds had no distractions/erections.
"And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell."
