There is a truly dark spirit of deception behind this movement which masquerades under the guise of human rights. Worldwide the old Anglo-Saxon nations are falling into institutionalised foolishness. The fish rots from the head. Not so long ago we had the bizarre situation of the British Foreign Office recommending that certain groups be careful when travelling to North Carolina and Tennessee because of their ‘discriminatory’ laws. The U.K. and US, perhaps the two most influential old ‘Christian’ nations, are now abandoning their heritage and celebrating an aggressive human rights’ culture which will only bring heartache and confusion to many people. Even big corporations such as PayPal are jumping on the bandwagon trying to display their ‘progressive’ credentials.
Story after story in the mainstream media in the western world brings us the latest manifestation of the advance of transgender rights. In the UK the Sun newspaper some time ago reported that children of four were being asked intrusive questions about their sexuality involving trans issues. PayPal meanwhile in the States under the Obama presidency threatened to pull its operations in North Carolina unless the state legislature rowed back down from its ‘discriminatory’ laws, one of which forbade a man or woman entering a public bathroom that does not accord with their birth gender. Common sense laws I would say! To destroy these norms is a pervert’s charter.
The Democrats are fully signed up to this ideology, just as their ideological cousins the Labour party are in Britain, and not only Labour, this thinking has now infested the Conservative party who recently had a consultation on transgender rights with a view to liberalising the law. It got to the point in the last US administration that we heard that the federal government of Obama was taking out a lawsuit against North Carolina over their ‘gross offence against human rights.’ When you have reprobate thinking at the very highest level in the most powerful nation on earth the western world is in deep trouble. At the time Obama was elected I saw him on television and said to my brother in law, ‘He’s a dangerous man.’ Nothing since then has changed my view of him. ‘Change is coming to America’ from the lips of the most un-American president I have ever witnessed became change of the worst possible kind. Sadly he was the symptom of the decline of a great nation rather than the cause. Funnily enough, Obama admitted that his support for transgender rights may have lost the Democrats votes in the 2016 presidential elections.
However Donald Trump, the Independent reports, is considering removing civil rights protections for transgender people and requiring American citizens to identify as the gender listed on their birth certificates. Another reason for the hard left to abhor a man that has destroyed their dreams. This is fodder for Guardian and Independent readers of course, who think this is just a case of trampling on minority rights and a catastrophic reversal of the rolling out of the worldwide progressive agenda. Opposition has risen up of course. An open letter opposing the Trump administration’s memo on the definition of gender had over 1600 scientists’ signatures. Meanwhile it has been reported that over 40 companies signed an open letter opposing Trump’s effort to ‘erase transgender people from America and strip them of their legal protections.’
Transgender rights swim in the same pool of destructive influences as militant gay rights, radical feminism, militant Islam and secular humanism, all designed to destroy Judeo-Christian civilisation, Magna Carta and the wellspring of liberty that has sprung historically from both these islands and the USA. All have been cooked up in Hell’s Kitchen to destroy the world many of us grew up in and will usher in tyranny and despotism on an industrial scale. The very fact that western governments and public officials are even discussing allowing men and women to use a public bathroom or washroom not of their birth gender shows that western civilisation has become a mere husk and foolish thinking has infected the highest levels of government. Across the main political parties in the UK the same slavish adherence to human rights and anti discrimination doctrine utterly undermines the ability of mainstream politicians to use the foundational gift of any statesman, the ability to discern between good and evil. Even the Conservative Party has fallen into this trap, no longer representing the natural conservatism of an England long lost but every shade of cultural Marxism utterly opposed to many good aspects of traditional culture.
Having said this let me make it quite clear that transgender people should be treated with kindness and respect as people just like anyone else, but why legitimise their state or behaviour as ‘normal?’ The traditional view has been that they are suffering from some mixture of emotional, psychological, moral and even spiritual confusion e.g. gender dysphoria, which needs special help as a mental condition. Reinforcing people’s feelings that they are ‘trapped in the wrong body’ will only multiply the spirit of confusion and deception around this issue. In particular to encourage this deception in children is the worst form of child abuse. There has to be another approach to help these people.
However a doorway has been opened with the transgender movement. Evil has been legitimised. You are dealing with a powerful bully that will steamroller everything in its path unless people start to stand up to it. People with a clear moral compass who will not budge an inch are needed as you are dealing with delusional thinking which is based on a very shaky foundation indeed. Now is the time for every decent concerned citizen to stand against this insanity. I rejoice every time parents protest as they try to protect our most precious heritage, our children, from this mindless spirit of confusion that legislators have let loose. I hope that many parents will create merry hell and pull their children out of the public school system, and home school or set up other schools to avoid poisonous government backed ideology. Meanwhile other political parties and leaders must rise up to confront and challenge the transgender movement and all it entails. It is heartening to see opposition arise to the transgender movement.
This is the danger, that decent people who are capable of changing the situation will stick their head in the sand and hope that this will all go away. It won’t. Now is the time to take a stand, not tomorrow or the next day. Evil triumphs when good people do nothing. The transgender rights movement is fuelled by deception and a completely wrong headed view of human nature, as well as anger and aggression. The end of this narrative is prison and the concentration camp. If you do not believe me just look at what New York has mandated, if you call a transsexual ‘he’ or ‘she’ when they wish to be referred to as a ‘zhe’ you could be fined $250,000. This is sheer insanity and if you fall for such deception you should not be anywhere near any position of governmental authority. You have been warned.
It is the usual suspects getting it in the neck over transgender rights. The matter came up in the Welsh parliament not so long ago and a Ukip member was suspended for casting doubt over the wisdom of transgender ideology. The three main legacy parties unfortunately have given themselves over to supporting or promoting this ideology, a particular shame for the Conservatives who have again proven to be anything other than Conservative in their policies. And why do I vote for ukip?
To cap it all the Church of England is finding it impossible to take a clear scriptural stance on this issue, choosing instead to follow the well trodden path of modernity, to avoid giving offence by all means possible to those who push the transgender agenda. It is the higher echelons of the church who are proving to be unable to stand clearly on biblical teaching. This is the real tragedy for Great Britain, that the church that should be going moral clarity and guidance to the nation has totally lost its way and is incapable of giving leadership to a rudderless world.
The church has the answer but is ducking the issue for fear of offence. A civilisation based on Judeo-Christian principles whose foundational sacred text states that ‘male and female created He them’ is severing that civilisation from its roots. Not without weight the famous passage in Romans in the New Testament says that ‘because they did not like to retain God in their mind that God gave them over to reprobate thinking. It’s as if God says, ‘ok, if you don’t want to follow my rules and my guidelines for living then I’ll let you get on with it and you can take the consequences.’
In reality the consequences are bearing themselves out, an insistence that we should be able to identify as whoever or whatever we want, which now not only involves identifying as a member of the opposite sex but being able to identify as someone younger than you actually are (might give you more success with the opposite sex!). Then we have ‘transitioning’ ex males assaulting woman in a female prison, male to female sportspersons competing against biological women, the frightening moves to get rid of all references to binary male or female gender in legal documents like passports, or the concoction of 71 different gender options on Facebook.
This is nothing less than an enthronement of self above the moral code that has been handed down to us, that we are entitled to extreme self fulfilment, the right to any behaviour, lifestyle or belief, no matter how bizarre even if this goes against science and nature. Man has an infinite capacity for self deception as long as he or she can do what they want to do. It is a denial of God as creator and sustainer of the universe and the ultimate fulfilment of God’s pronouncement against Adam and Eve that they would be as gods.
The church should be holding the line on these issues, but instead rolls with the culture and becomes completely irrelevant with a whimper, joining in with the mad destruction of everything normal and wholesome. Progressive liberals rip out fences that are there, just as church liberals are doing at the moment, whereas conservatives will ask the question, ‘why are those fences there in the first place?’ Quite!
