We are seeing increasing episodes of delusional people, some of whom are in powerful positions, calling good evil and calling evil good.
George W. Julian was a Free-Soil Party congressman during Abraham Lincoln’s terms as president. According to Julian, during a discussion about issuing the Emancipation Proclamation, Lincoln posed a particular riddle on how many legs a dog has (Lincoln actually said “calf,” but it has come down to us as “dog”):
Abraham Lincoln faced with some thorny issue that could be settled by a twist of language, or a slight abuse of power, asks his questioner how many legs would a dog have, if we called the dog’s tail, a leg. “Five,” the questioner responds confident in his mathematical ability to do simple addition.
“No,” Lincoln says. “Calling a dog’s tail a leg, doesn’t make it a leg.”
The particulars of this story apply to today’s society and the world in which we live. Things and persons are what they are. A tree is a tree. You can call it a bush as often as you wish, but it is still a tree. A fact is a fact. You can wish it were something else, but it is still a fact.
Where am I going with this, you might ask? Let me answer that for you. Today, we are witnessing all too many delusional people who seem to think that if you call a man a woman, that makes him a woman (or vice versa). That just is not true. I will agree that a person of either sex can dress and look like the opposite sex if they wish, but that person is simply a transvestite, since there is no way any individual can alter the sex chromosomes with which he is born.

Legs? Legs? I don’t know about you, but the real issue is healthcare for pets. I want Obama Care for my pets, and it better include abortion and sex reassignment surgery.

JUDITH: Here! I— I’ve got an idea. Suppose you agree that he can’t actually have babies, not having a womb, which is nobody’s fault, not even the Romans’, but that he can have the right to have babies.
FRANCIS: Good idea, Judith. We shall fight the oppressors for your right to have babies, brother. Sister. Sorry.
REG: What’s the point?
FRANCIS: What?
REG: What’s the point of fighting for his right to have babies when he can’t have babies?!
FRANCIS: It is symbolic of our struggle against oppression.
REG: Symbolic of his struggle against reality.

“SYMBOLIC OF HIS STRUGGLE AGAINST REALITY” is where we are now today.
