To be clear and that we're on the same page, hermaphroditism is a physical genetic condition. It is not mindset, worship, behavior, crossdressing, role replacement, etc, or (do I need to say it) transgenderism.

Now that we're on the same page, the attempt to pull masculine and feminine into a single "thing" is an advanced concept, really, in that it is not only the recognition of the binary but in the duality that exists and then mapping it into a desire to become one with source (God, universe, whatever context we're looking at here). It's an abstract concept. Human brains aren't wired to understand abstracts; we have to learn and train it. So it's advanced.

This is generally initially fueled by loneliness or separation and a desire to express it. Return to God, ashes to ashes, and so forth. Many early religions expressed this. Sometimes in primitive ways and sometimes more advanced. For example, the Hindu concept called "Ardhanarishvara" is a melding of Shiva and Parvati and includes an in-depth story. There were, however, almost no worshipers of this and the only cult of this form died out quite a while ago. Another example, more recently, is Baphomet which does not represent any figure of entity but is an attempt to merge the gender duality within the framework of its host religion.

The attempt to reconcile the reality of that duality with another abstract concept (divinity), is a natural progression of the genetic requirement to advance and evolve.

So we're clear: the idea of merging the duality of gender into a single representation or even symbol is a fulfillment of evolutionary imperatives, the desire to mate and not be alone, and is almost always initially driven by the concept of divinity. I know what you're thinking here but hear me out, okay?

So now if we take a look at the how that merging is expressed, it invariably comes back to how it is influenced at conception. Take Baphomet. The host religion would be Satanism though modern "sources" try to link it to the Templar Knights which just continues the slander of them by Catholic organizations. Fittingly, it contains all of the "obscene" imagery you would find in the Malleus Maleficarum and other propaganda of the time and subsequently adopted by the Catholic opposite of Satanism and Paganism (as a general term)

For Jews, that would be their original Ba'al or Molech (depending on your source). Unquestionable evil entities bent on destroying what is perceived to be the inherent divinity of humanity. As such, we get perversion and transgenderism.

You notice what we don't have? Perversion of it in Hinduism. Sure, we get the occasional follower who would want to have an expression of that merging in their own body and thus be doing "transgender therapy" however I consider that no different from asceticism and other severe forms of religious practice which do not pervert society.

You notice which else doesn't have that perversion? Christianity. We have the Madonna/Whore dichotomy (a classic trope) around Jesus and even some traditions which place Jesus and Mary as husband and wife as a way to reconcile the dualities of both divine and wretch, male and female but in a more, shall we say, traditional way though this still sullies the purity of Jesus while at least trying to show divine love for all living beings. While the message technically could be seen as wholesome, it is still a perversion using the framework of man to create the corruption.

You know where else we don't see that perversion? Islam. It went a completely different direction by demonizing men through the subjugation of women because apparently men can't control themselves and so women must be covered, beaten, etc.

From an ideological viewpoint, the entire subject is fascinating and pathetically sad simultaneously. Of the ones I've covered here (the examples could go on and on however), I think the ones of Hindu and Christianity have it the most correct. Those are intended to be purely symbolical as no one suggests to a man "Go marry a whore" and few people would go through the lengths of hormone therapy for religious faith though I can understand either and if I were presented with such individuals I could only respect them provided they weren't trying to corrupt anyone else.

Of the remaining: Catholic, Jewish, Islam... those have taken it to perversion levels of varying degrees. There's a contempt for those religions in many and while it's easiest to understand the hatred of Islam, Jews are the ones constantly asking "Why hate us?" and pretending that it's not a perversion. And Catholics... well, that a whole different fucked up ball of wax but it's still a perversion and subjugation with a shade of "holy lipstick" slapped on a pig. And even though Catholicism has a major corruption and perversion going on, I can still respect the attempt of intense holy respect even though it's a facade but where they got it right is the intensity of the intent.

Lucifer is the Roman god of the morning light. His name literally means Light Bringer. Lucifer has nothing to do with Satan. The two were purposely conflated to drive Europeans away from their native gods, much like the Finnish god Perkele, god of thunder, came to mean Satan.
