Student called ‘despicable’ by teacher after challenging peer who identifies as a cat
NY post ^ | 6/19/23

A 13-year-old girl was called “despicable” by her teacher at a Church of England school in the United Kingdom on Friday after asking a classmate how she identifies as a cat.

The schoolgirl and her friend were reprimanded by their teacher at Rye College in East Sussex at the end of an eighth-grade “life education” class, where they were told that they could “be who you want to be and how you identify is up to you,” The Telegraph reported.

Following the lesson one of the students asked a classmate: “How can you identify as a cat when you’re a girl?”

The teacher told the students they were being reported to school administrators and would no longer be welcome at the school if they continued to express the view that only boys and girls exist, according to a recording of the exchange.

In the clip, taken by one of the students, the teacher starts off by saying, “How dare you, you’ve just really upset someone” by “questioning their identity,” according to The Telegraph.

The student replies: “If they want to identify as a cat or something then they are genuinely unwell – crazy.”

You don’t get to define “Christian”.

Let me try that excuse with the IRS. I identify as a cat, cats don’t pay taxes.

My nephew (13 years old) has a girl in his class that identifies as a cat. He thinks its insane too but knows he can’t say anything. He just ignores her and tries not to laugh when she makes cat noises. It is true that a portion fo the young generation is being raised to be certifiably insane. But a large portion of the young generation is being raised to have zero faith at all in any institution.

If they can get you to think a boy is a girl and a girl is a boy, they have control of your mind and can get you to do anything.

Especially when they punish people whose minds refuse to be controlled.

God’s word, the Bible, defines Christian, you ignorant wretch. Your argument is with Him.

This idiocy will continue until it all collapses on itself, or there are real consequences that scare people. Why else would it stop?

Collapse will take a very long time. Our population doesn’t have the stomach to enforce any consequences on the weirdos. It will get worse.

Often .... not always ...

the people who tat up or deform or just act weird .. are just screaming for attention from some one ..anyone.

I have walked up to some pretty wild looking/acting folks and
said ... That’s some wild body art you got there.
generally get a deer in the head light look ... they are used to being invisible to people like me.
then I say something about a particular aspect .. Thats good color ...something like that .
I usually get a bit of a smile on that one.

Then the question ..where does that Idea come from, how did you see it before you did it? I would never have imagined that.

At that point you may find yourself in a conversation with a lonely child looking for some answers about life .

Just take it from there.....

Collapse Happens Slowly… and Then Very Suddenly.

cats don’t pay taxes.

A long time ago (1970s) I read of an incident in which the IRS attempted to impose fines and penalties upon and collect personal income tax from Miss Elizabeth R. Tunnel of Norfolk Virginia.

The comptroller of the Elizabeth River Tunnel Authority responded that a highway structure is not liable for personal income taxes ... that more or less ended the matter.

Perhaps we should "identify" as bridges, tunnels, and suchlike ...

Precedent is on our side.

Beg your pardon, Lou, but Lutherans ARE Christian in every shape form and fashion. I’m LCMS: We believe in Salvation through Faith in Jesus Christ, and that Faith is by Grace alone, a Gift from the Holy Spirit. Do you define Christian in some other way?

Name-calling is the first resort of people who cannot win an argument.

Have a nice day.

“Satan is truly blinding people to truth and common sense. It is shocking how thoroughly this kind of insanity is taking over, but the bible tells us these things must happen in the end times as evil begins to take over more and more. It’s just maddening though to sit back and watch the Insanity when the truth is so obvious, but the other side refuses to accept the truth.”

Yes, it is maddening to watch...except that is exactly why God and Jesus warned us these things would happen...so that we could deal with it when the time comes. These heathens and cretins don’t realize it, but their insanity and anti-Christian tyranny is validating the Bible and God’s word and prophecy.

Yep. Bad as they are, at least they’re still somewhat grounded in reality.

Ok. I’ll ask (now you’ve done it).

How, exactly, does one “confuse a cat”?

This insanity is going to lead to more bullying and isolation thus suicidal actions. It must be stopped but the genie is out no going back.
