The union of the LGBTQ community with Planned Parenthood has produced an offspring they call "Gender Spectrum."
Parents and grandparents should be informed---your K through 12 child is.
Planned Parenthood is well identified. They essentially abort unwanted babies under the guise of "women's health care"---and have recently been caught selling body parts from the unwanted babies.
The LGBTQ movement has several siblings---the ACLU, Lambda Legal, and Human Rights Campaign.
PP is in a panic, preparing for Roe v Wade to be overturned, while the LGBTQ movement is emboldened by the undying support from the uninformed progressive Left, who have agreed that skin color is the equivalent to sexual behavior.
The two groups have formed an unholy alliance and given birth to the cult of "transgenderism" under the banner of "Gender Spectrum."
And it's being taught from K to 12 in public schools. PP has also created material to (mis) inform uninformed parents so they can support the indoctrination taking place in their kid's public classroom.
Gender Spectrum.
Planned Parenthood introduces its gender spectrum section with this:
"When it comes to gender, ideas about what it means to be a girl or a boy are everywhere, and these ideas have a big influence on your preschooler. Learn how to teach your kid that their gender doesn't limit them, how to talk about different kinds of families, how to know if your kid is transgender, and more."
PP says, "Your genitals don't make you a boy or a girl."
The "Gender Spectrum" has its own website. In the introduction the parent or concerned adult reads, "Gender Spectrum helps create gender sensitive and inclusive environments for all children and teens."
Ryan Bomberger in writing about this newest assault on kids and families says, "Welcome to the cult of transgenderism, where hucksters sell their poisonous ideology, the victims are scammed, and a liberal media spotlights the #fakenews face of the movement."
He says, "The Left controls so much of the discussion, because they control so many of the primary institutions that redefine the language---public schools, academia, the medical profession, legislatures, the entertainment industry and news media."
To change the culture, the Left has changed the meaning of words. And in doing so has created a new kind of slavery.
I call it "Intellectual slavery."
Bomberger notes that "words are revolutionary." Indeed they are.
God's Word brought the world into existence. Words start wars, bring healing, destroy and shape a culture. They have meaning. When God spoke, "Let there be light," the darkness was scattered. We see the reverse of that in our culture today as the Truth that illuminates is blotted out.
George Orwell, who is well known for his insightful novel, "1984," also said this in "Politics and the English Language" regarding the deliberate decay of language and the intentional lack of precision: "Thus political language has to consist largely of euphemism, question begging and sheer cloudy vagueness."
Webster defines slavery as "submission to a dominating influence." Bomberger says,
"We live in a society that wants to pretend scientifically irrefutable truths (binary gender, only women can become pregnant, male and female are determined at fertilization) are hostile to the concept of freedom. So instead, in a world that is desperate for objective truth and moral clarity, thought leaders ( including many pastors) prefer a subjective surreality where confusion is celebrated, and afflictions are affirmed."
This defines most of the institutions in our culture. Sadly it defines too many Christian churches in our country.
When a church identifies itself as "affirming" or "inclusive" or "celebrating diversity," it is certain they are a church living in the world of "sheer cloudy vagueness" in denial of the Truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ that forgives, restores, and sets people free from their slavery and bondage.
A generation ago, no one was discussing "gender-inclusive" or "prostate carrier" or "transgender"---and my Christian grandmother often said she was feeling "gay" because she was having a good time. She was happy.
You ask, "What is a prostate carrier?" You need look no further than "Teen Vogue" magazine which tells teens that it is someone whose anatomy includes a prostate. (Whisper) We used to call them males or men.
The Teen Magazine also teaches kids how to "properly" have anal sex. Parents, please be aware.
I have mentioned Teen Vogue before in this Faith and Freedom Daily article. They are the banner carrier for the Planned Parenthood--LGBTQ union.
This is one of many examples of sheer cloudy vagueness in our words. Purposefully created to bring a generation into intellectual slavery. And abject confusion. And ultimately destroy them by advocating destructive behavior.
Why should we stop at gender? What if some days I feel like I'm an Asian? Or some days I feel like I'm Middle Eastern or a black or Hispanic because I'm hungry for some Mexican food?
Maybe I don't like my age. I can "identify" as a Millennial.
Overstating the case? Not really.
Remember Rachel Dolezal in Spokane, Washington? As a "black," she was the director of the NAACP in the area.
However, her white parents from Idaho stepped forward and said: "No, she isn't black, she's European white." Rachael explained to the national news media she was not white like her biological parents---she was black because she "identified" as black.
Freedom is found in Truth.
Even PBS has had to admit that scientifically my male gender was determined by my DNA the moment I existed---at conception. In addition to being encoded via DNA on day 1--it can also be visibly determined via ultrasound as early as 11 weeks and done so with 99% accuracy after 17 weeks gestation.
However, Planned Parenthood and the LGBTQ folks continue to teach kids that sex is "assigned at birth." Or later based on how a child "identifies" him or herself or "its " self or whatever.
This lie is affirmed by the media, public education and too many churches. Laws are created to protect this abuse of science, the intellect and the child, while churches rewrite their theology and doctrines to accommodate it---and to appear "welcoming." And "caring." And "Christian."
Too many pastors and churches and denominations want to give Scripture reassignment surgery confusing capitulation for compassion.
To parents and grandparents.
Please. Read the material offered by Planned Parenthood I mentioned above.
Also, to understand more about this so-called "transgender" and "gender spectrum" pseudoscience, please read this report "Sexuality and Gender" from renowned psychiatrists Dr. Paul R. McHugh (former psychiatrist-in-chief at Johns Hopkins Hospital) and Dr. Lawrence S. Mayer (professor of statistics and biostatistics at Arizona State University).
Everyone deserves to be treated with dignity. And that starts with being told the truth.
There's too much at stake to merely wave this off as "personal freedom" or "Love Wins" or an act of "tolerance" or "kindness" and continue in the lie.
This generation of kids are worth the effort to be informed and take action if necessary.
And to tell them the Truth. Which will set them free.
Be Informed. Be Discerning. Be Vigilant. Be Prayerful.
