The Vatican City announced sex change operations and surrogacy as a challenge to human self-esteem. They claim that these practices offend the god plan and natural order.

The office of Vatican City issued a document named "Infinite Dignity "which is a 20-page declaration document that has been in the work for five years. After a thorough recast, it was approved on March 25 by Pope Francis. who directed its publications.

The city again denied the concept of "gender theory". It claimed that God created women and men as different beings, and they must not mess with that plan.

The document said that any sex change interference, as a rule, risks intimidating the self-worth of the person. The document emphasizes the fundamental right of a child to a natural origin and not from artificial intervention. This origin should show the inherent dignity of both the child, as the recipient of life, and the procreators who bestow this gift. In light of this principle, the document argues that a genuine desire for a child cannot be equated with an absolute "right to a child" that disregards the inherent dignity of the child as the recipient of the gift of life.

The reality of the document was verified in recent weeks by the new Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, Argentine Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernandez, a close friend of Pope Francis.

It recognizes that some people may have surgery to cope with "genital abnormalities", but highlights that ''such a medical procedure would not consist of a sex change in the way they are claiming refer.

Rejecting the ''gender theory", the document also condemns countries like Africa where homosexuality is prohibited, Francis said that homosexuality is not a crime.

The Assembly for Catholic Education denied the idea that humans may decide or change their sexual identity, which resulted Vatican issuing its stance on gender in 2019.

The release of the document shows resistance to transgender society, including USA, where state legislatures led by GOPs are making a plan to bring a new legislation that would not allow medical care for transgender and even for adults in certain circumstances.
