That opinion is fine if that's what you believe, but it can't
be a fact as we have already seen Time Lords change their
gender whilst regenerating on-screen... so your opinion on
it counts for
No we have not. That was deranged fan fiction like the moon
hatching into a giant space dragon which flew away with 90% of
it's mass and then with only 10% of its mass remaining in the
broken shell it all came back together within seconds and
looked and weight exactly the same as it did before.
You really didn't like that episode, did you?!
nothing as it has already happened. We can't unsee it now!
Everything from Kill The Moon onwards can be considered to be
cannon.
It can, by you or anyone. As there is no official BBC Doctor Who
canon so you can include or exclude anything you like. (I do.)
A bit like bi-generation... I think it was a stupid idea but
Totally deranged fan fiction.
I'll stick with stupid idea.
it's happened and been seen to happen in "The Giggle"... so
it is what it is. Believable fiction or not it has now
become part of "Doctor Who" lore.
No it has not. Doctor Who had already ended by the time that
piece of degeneration fan fiction was written by RTD on LSD.
<rolls eyes>
Just when I thought you were starting to takes things
seriously...

Nobody ever claimed Time Lords were any kind of fact. We’re
all aware they’re fictional.
That doesn't change the fact that Time Lords can't change
gender during regeneration. Fiction has to be as constant as
reality in order to be believed.

Only because the idiot RTD purposely did it to jump on the
Politically Correct bandagon (as well as appeasing BBC
"equality" checklists), so he lazily hijacked an existing
character rather than actually do something creative like make
a brand new character.

We can blame RTD for a lot of things but he didn't bring the
Time Lord's gender-swapping regenerations into the show. That
was Steven Moffat... who introduced Missy and also gave us the
on-screen regeneration of the General from male to female in
"Hell Bent". Then Chris Chibnall followed it up with Jodie
Whittaker's Doctor.
Although RTD will probably be disappointed that he missed out
on that progressive tick-boxing, but to compensate he did gender
swap Jodie Whittaker's Doctor in to David Tennant. Which funnily
enough, nobody seemed to mind!

Sorry, I’ve only just realised… Are you saying the Daleks are

If we're gonna do it... we might as well do it right! ;-)
That’s why I tried to keep my choices to books that are in
all versions of Christianity.

Er... <gulp> do you mean that they're not?
I thought Terry Nation used Christianity as his basis for Daleks?
You know; Davros is like the Pope, the supreme leader. So the
Daleks follow the true religion, as preached by their pontiff.
Whilst the Thals are the prods, rejecting the true word and
thinking their way is the right way.
(How do they cross themselves with a plunger?)
You can't see what the mutants are doing inside their travel
machine! All you are seeing is a casing. Trying to make out
that faithful Daleks are not following the correct rituals is
blasphemy!

You mean... Christianity has different versions? How weird. I
mean, you either believe in Jewsus or you don't. What
differences could there possibly be?

What about
Matthew of the Daleks?
If you’re going to include proper names, start with Joshua and
continue from there.
What about Judges of the Daleks?
What about it? Judges isn’t a personal name. You don’t get
people called Judges Smith or Judges Brown, do you?
(Anyway, I already said that one.)
