[[Christianity]] teaches that all can be saved through Christ. In most cases, hermaphrodites are more male or more female. Doctors can then perform operations shortly after birth to correct the child to the dominant gender and most hermaphrodites will then lead perfectly normal lives in Christ.

Those who are not or can not be corrected to a dominant gender are not [[bisexual]], and are not permitted to be sexual libertines. Liberals often believe that any person with even marginally ambivalent genitals (or even feelings) may perform whatever sex acts they like with whomever they please. Christians, however, point out that there are many situations in which the Bible mandates [[chastity]]. Indeed, marital relations are a gift God gives humans, and a true hermaphrodite may simply not be given this gift, like a person born without legs is not given the gift of running. The latter is not justified in robbing an Olympic athlete of his medal, and the former is not justified in bedding anyone he chooses.
