On June 15, the Supreme Court issued its Bostock opinion redefining "sex" in discrimination law. Beyond the word's common biological meaning linked to an innate and unchangeable characteristic the Court says "sex" can now be used to protect homosexual behaviors and transgender delusions. By acknowledging "sexual orientation" and "gender identity" as valid concepts (while leaving them essentially undefined), the Court has embraced sexual-radical dogma.
The absurd Bostock opinion will unleash unimaginable chaos unless there is significant push-back. The disruptions that have followed rampant "gay rights" demands are well known, and will surely multiply. And the ruling has given new life to transgender demands for their special "rights."
While Bostock specifically addressed employment law, commentators predict that its new definition of "sex" will be applied in any case dealing with discrimination on the basis of "sex." There are over 100 federal laws that use that terminology.
The power of imagination
In a glaring admission of his belief that the Constitution is a "living" document, Justice Gorsuch's majority opinion says this of the 1964 Civil Rights Act: "But the limits of the drafters' imagination supply no reason to ignore the law's demands" (to protect LGBT identities). The Justice goes on to "imagine" various scenarios to justify his argument. But in his arrogance, he doesn't realize how limited his own powers of imagination are.

America’s robed mullahs? Doubtful. They have the duality of bad (”settled”) law built into their pronouncements.
The SCOTUS decision means NOTHING
For it to become law the legislative branch has to write it into law and the President sign it into law.
That is HOW our Republic works.
Because thus “ruling” is contrary to nature, it should be ignored.
Consider the example of the dude in Canada a couple of years ago who called himself a "woman" on his auto insurance application just so he could get a lower rate on his insurance.
There were howls of outrage over it from professional malcontents all over the country up there, but legally there was nothing they could do about it. The problem with recognizing "transgenders" is that you have to recognize them on THEIR terms, not by any objective measure that stands up to legal scrutiny.
So, if I walk down the street with my male parts hanging out, and get arrested for exposure, or whatever . . . .
Then I declare I am female and those are not my parts . . . .
How is that all going to work out?
I’ve said before and I’ll say it again: BIG problems arise when governments pretend things to be true that aren’t true. Some examples:
- Witch trials and executions resulted from a government pretending that there is such a thing as a witch.
- Slavery resulted from a government pretending that black people aren’t people.
- The Holocaust resulted from a government pretending that Jewish people aren’t people.
- Abortion resulted from governments pretending that preborn people aren’t people.
- All kinds of problems have resulted from governments pretending that homosexuality is normal.
Congress can over ride the SCOTUS however we don’t have a congress right now we only have Hotel California members seated in it.
The USSC has for too long been accepted as the actual and total Rulers of the nation insofar as they choose to be.
Quite right. Thank the horrid 17th Amendment.
All it says is if you tolerate a certain behavior from a man you have to tolerate that same behavior from a woman.
Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."
Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.
Leviticus niv
18:22 Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.
20:13 If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.
Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them;
they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it.
Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.
================================================
2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight.
They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.
Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.
1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done. Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.
But there IS hope!!!
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...
I’d suspect there would be many who would gladly remove those parts that are not yours free of charge.
