Why Nearly 40 Percent of Gen Z Identify as LGBTQ [10/20/21]
American Thinker ^ | 16 Feb, 2022 | Vince Coyner

It’s guaranteed that you won’t find this absurdity in nations where people struggle for food, water, shelter and freedom.

I was shocked not long ago when I read a piece on the Newsweek website. The headline read “Nearly 40 Percent of U.S. Gen Zs, 30 Percent of Young Christians Identify as LGBTQ, Poll Shows.” That, aside from Joe Biden providing free crack pipes to help address racial inequality, is the most absurd thing I may have ever read. Not so much for the data itself per se, but rather, an illustration of exactly how malleable (and lost) young Americans are.

Whatever the natural percentage of LGBTQwhatever people in the United States is, it’s sure as hell not 40%. It’s probably closer to low single digits. Whatever it actually is, somehow with the left’s championing the of the rainbow, magically 40% of young people identify with it… not tolerate it, not say no problem with it, not even say, good for them, but against the tide of tens of thousands of years of human history, are now, or at least “identify” as, LBGTQwhatever. That tells you a lot about the state of America today.

I am a proud member of the LGBFJB community.

I think you nailed it.

What kind of life is it for a straight White male in todays' world? Miserable, I suspect.

But with a little play-acting the same SWM can become 'special' and gain social status.

Look at the advantages. You just have to make a declaration. You don’t have to do anything. Just the statement or the implication that you belong to the “LGBTQXYZ” group is enough to award you special privileges.

You are now unfireable. You can get any coworker fired within seconds. You will get special help if you open a business. People watch what they say around you, knowing that you have the power over them and are now their master.

Your insignificant actions will be redefined as heroic accomplishments.

Membership in the “LGBTXYZ” group is free, and gives you lifetime privileges.

From the article: when I read a piece on the Newsweek website.

Writer Vince Coyner willingly or ignorantly lets the Left control the narrative. Who cites Newsweek as anything more than tabloid propaganda? Who cites a biased poll as anything more than an agenda?

30 Percent of Young Christians Identify as LGBTQ

Correction: 0 Percent of Young Christians Identify as LGBTQ. Anyone who "identifies" as LGBTQ is tautologically NOT a Christian.
I've been witnessing the progressive bastardization of the English language for most of my long life. The Sodomites may be winning the battle in the social media and in the culture but they won't gain an inch of ground in our minds if we don't let them.

Answer: Five

Lincoln: Wrong! It's still four. Calling a tail a 'leg' doesn't make it a leg.

For practical reasons I find it comforting to know that I can change my gender whenever I want just by saying so.

That Canadian dude who "transitioned" to a woman a few years ago had the whole thing down pat. He never changed a single aspect of his personality or behavior, but he called himself a "woman" just so he could save money on his auto insurance.

I'll bet that GEICO gecko lizard couldn't do as well himself.

I would guess that a good percentage of the 40% are being raised by a mother only.

And the percentage of true Christians in this category is zero.

It’s a cult that operates under its para church, the leftist elite.

The schools and woke companies punish anyone not on the grievance ladder of CRT. “CIS white male” is the supposed cause of every woe. Take a letter, become protected. No letter, become persecuted. That’s all.

The first chapter of Romans alone gives one reason to believe the Bible speaks truth. I’ve spent hours, amazed, in that chapter.

There’s probably dozens of reasons we can find for truth in Romans 1.

Most Christians rarely spend time in Romans. That book is like a dagger of truth to the soul.

I was younger. I remember Lynda Carter and Erin Gray.
I wasn’t sure why, but I knew I liked looking at them…

"they want attention. same as 24/7 posts on social media."

And acceptance. Humans are herd animals, so they're doing what it takes to be accepted by the herd.
