It isn't enough to be forced to politely tolerate madness, now we are being legislated into playing along. <br /><br />It took some time for our culture to recognize that forcing another to breath in secondhand smoke violated their (previously undefined, but self-evident) right to breath air untainted by tobacco smoke. How long will it take to realize that our "right" to hide our nakedness from persons of the opposite biological gender is being taken away to bring in a new, legally imposed (im)morality? Someone needs to articulate these previously undefined rights before they are trampled roughshod into oblivion.

Her testosterone injection was ordered. As a Christian, I could not, in good conscience, give this injection. I was going to ask someone else to give it, knowing I might have some repercussions. Fortunately it was ordered for the next morning and I wasn't working. Now we are going to have more and more situations like this to deal with. It may even mean the loss of a job!

If I didn't trust God completely, it would be hard to face that possible (probable?) future. There really ought to be an audience for Christian speculative fiction on the kind of... well not post-apocalyptic, but certainly dystopian society that could likely result from the current changes in cultural thinking, up to and including the issue of "gender fluidity." Not just to prepare us for what's likely to come, but also to put flesh on what the struggle will mean for disciples of Christ and whatever remains of the Church in such a toxic atmosphere.<br /><br />But better yet (and ever so timely) will be sermons on the prophecies that apply to our immanent struggle. Pastors who follow this blog, take note.

After reading it, I was wide awake with no caffeine.<br /><br />Once again, the only antidote for the schizophrenic and bipolar cultural wind shifts is the gospel. And in light of the ever-increasing proclamations that "sin is the new holiness", we had better know it, believe it, live it, and teach it.Randy Talleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09442598590753709382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21212024.post-17007163103014565092015-07-01T07:28:26.743-07:002015-07-01T07:28:26.743-07:00Ahhh!

And we can see in Belgium that they are opening the doors for those who feel mental anguish to seek this "remedy" at any age.
