While there may be “perfectly decent people on either side of the conflict” among those actually calling the dance for the Left who are insisting insanity and perversion be held normal to be doctrinally pure there are no good actors.

Past a certain point they’re either koolaid-sipping bat-poo crazy too or lucid and culpable as indctrinators and fellow travelers with the Marxists behind cultural Marxism.

I enjoy authors whose political or personal views I don’t like.

If I ever had to agree with them, I could never read a book.

The biology of sex is real. Facts are stubborn things.

Its no use stating the obvious to our cancel culture.

Rowling and I are political opposites. We both agree on the unity of human nature and that the parts are the sum of the whole.

This is an indisputable fact. This isn’t the place for rational people to cede ground.

Everyone gets a serious encounter with the Lord.

Not everyone get theirs while there’s still time.

One of the most insidious things about how homosexuality or genderism is billed in our so-called culture is that it essentially paints the sin to be bigger than the Lord. They cannot change, it’s inborn they claim, so of course they ought not to repent as well as cannot.

But while many blame the Lord for the cesspool they’ve waded into, acting as if it’s His fault, the truth is that at some point they let some emotion or fantasy run away with them. Who without knowledge (and better: faith) can argue with a heart flutter or a whim as if they were rational processes?

Some time ago, addressing different circumstances and about different matters, when I was saying what the Lord had done for me one guy came back saying that it was remarkable what imagination could do but when I shot back that an imagination run amuck cannot be corralled in an instant by more imagination, such that terror be replaced with resolve, he went silent. That shut him down ... that day. Sadly my witness bounced off his noggin to no discernible effect.

Transgenderism is sooooooo yesterday. Can’t these people find new things to be offended by?

The lunatics are running the asylum. A generation ago common sense was common place.

Today, its a miracle that people can agree on anything at all.

"It amazes me that the tranny lobby is winning every battle that it fights despite the fact that it represents probably less than one percent of the population."

Not unironically, they lost one percent of their battles.

"Polls show the transgender ideology is deeply unpopular, especially among women and parents. In 2017, former President Barack Obama told NPR that his promotion of the transgender ideology made it easier for Donald Trump to win the presidency ."

Now just think of how in-your-face we will be able to re-cast Obama's fears with new faces in the summer of the 2020 Olympics...

Yes! How did it come about that society at large must agree with someone’s denial of reality? Where is the little kid to say the emperor has no clothes?

Anything besides heterosexuality is aberrant.
Young people, early to mid-teens, CHOOSE not to be heterosexual...and CHOOSE to be homo/bi/non/Q. There is NO truth that there is/was anything normal about those aberrant sexuality choices. Everyone is BORN heterosexual.

Every society/nationality, etc., accepts heterosexuality as the NORM and anything else is wrong, sinful and/or aberrant.

When asked about this issue, I say, “Why should I have to accept their reality, when they cannot accept reality.”

There’s a truism I come up with a while ago: Some things just take too long to say unless you’re preaching to the choir.

So I hear you, preacher. But to those who cannot no amount of words will convince them to hear ... getting camels through the eyes of needles ... that’s the Holy Spirit’s job anyway..

People always have choices.
One can always pray to the Holy Spirit for guidance, wisdom, strength, peace, hope and a better understanding of what our Lord wants from us.

However, if one wasn't brought up to know the Holy Spirit or Jesus or our Father in heaven, then one seems to have to rely on him/herself. And that's a no-win.

We ARE also allowed to ASK our Lord for His sustaining grace.

Our Lord listens to us, always.

God created man and woman. People created mutilated freaks.
