Child taught LGBT indoctrination supported by the Church of England - parents object

Image
  A Church of England primary school has justified secretly teaching 8-year-old children that they can be born in the wrong body and encouraged the idea that 3-year-olds can declare themselves as ‘non-binary’ to their parents. Parents, Calvin and Nicola Watts, who are being supported by the Christian Legal Centre, have been forced to remove their children from St Michael’s Church of England primary school in Tenterden, Kent, after discovering that their 8-year-old child and classmates were being given extreme teaching on gender identity. Following parental complaints, however, the school, whose website states that it is ‘proud of its Christian values’ justified the teaching based on the Church of England (CofE’s) own guidance, ‘Valuing All God’s Children’. It also did not rule out showing similar content to children in the future. The family was alerted by other parents that a video of ‘It feels good to be yourself: a book about gender identity’, by Theresa Thorn, had been shown ...

Bethany Christian Services - now just services

Image
“Bethany,” refers here to Bethany Christian Services (BCS), which had been one of the nation’s largest evangelical agencies involved in adoption and foster care. The “pivot,” points to its policies regarding LGBTQ issues. BCS recently announced that it would now place children in same-sex households and other families identified as LGBTQ. This can only be described as a watershed pivot—a pivot away from orthodox biblical Christianity and towards the aims of the sexual revolution and its new morality. CHRIS PALUSKY LGBT JUSTIFICATION FALLS SORT OF SCRIPTURE BETHANY CHRISTIAN SERVICES NOW JUST SERVICES NEITHER BETHANY NOR CHRISTIAN COURTESY NATE BOLT The phrase, “Bethany pivoted,” is attributed to Robin Fretwell Wilson, a professor of law at the University of Illinois at Champaign. Professor Wilson previously advised Utah lawmakers on the bill known as the Fairness for All Act. Make no mistake: This is exactly the pivot that is increasingly demanded by the moral revolutionaries. They wil...

Why Do 1 In 6 Gen Z Adults Identify As LGBT?

Image
One of the early gay activist talking points was that 1 in 10 people were gay, even though the activists knew this was not true. That’s why it was significant when, in 2011, demographer Gary Gates, himself gay, “released a review of population-based surveys on the topic, estimating that 3.5% of adults in the United States identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual, with bisexuals making up a slight majority of that figure.” Other surveys came to similar conclusions, and even as recently as 2017, a Gallup poll put the total percentage of Americans who identify as LGBT at 4.5%. The newest Gallup poll, however, puts that number at 5.6%. More strikingly, the poll indicates that 1 out of every 6 generation Z adults (meaning over 16% of those aged 18-23) identifies as LGBT. How can this be? Additionally, “More than half of LGBT adults (54.6%) identify as bisexual. About a quarter (24.5%) say they are gay, with 11.7% identifying as lesbian and 11.3% as transgender. An additional 3.3% volunteer ano...

Silence people who hold these views

Image
A pro-abortion and pro-gay medical lecturer has returned her Australia Day award in protest at the decision to give the country’s highest honor to tennis great Margaret Court. Caroline de Costa was given the Order of Australia (AM) in 2014 for her work in women’s reproductive health (abortion)  But she decided to return the award after Court was appointed a Companion of the Order of Australia (AC) earlier this week. Professor de Costa said as a medical practitioner, and as the mother of a gay son, she did not wish to be associated with an organization that condoned the views of Court. She is not biased. She set out her "you must think my way or else you are a bigot" reasons in a letter to Governor-General David Hurley. Court had already been recognized for her tennis achievements and charity work with an Order of Australia in 2007. Over the intervening fourteen years, she has used her position as a public figure to espouse God's correct and healthy views on sexuality, and...

Burger KIngs promotes homosexual sin

Image
A new Burger King ad campaign features a homosexual embrace showing an image of the fast-food chain’s official mascot “kissing” McDonald's well-known mascot, Ronald McDonald (without permission) Burger King Finland launched the ad to celebrate Helsinki Pride Week, which just ended. The pro-homosexual celebration normally takes place in June but was postponed because of the coronavirus outbreak. The ad shows the Burger King’s full face as he “kisses” and puts his hand on the face of what appears to be Ronald McDonald.  While Ronald McDonald’s face cannot be seen, he is identified from his trademark red hair, striped shirt, and yellow vest.   At the bottom of the ad, the phrase “Love Conquers All” can be seen with a version of the “gay pride flag” featuring a black and brown stripe that appears to be influenced by the Black Lives Matter movement. An Adweek report from last week quoted Burger King Finland brand manager Kaisa Kasila as saying “Burger King has always stood for...

Biden-Sanders’ ‘Unity Plan’ doesn’t mention God even once. LGBT mentioned 17 times

Image
Suffice it to say that protecting the religious rights of Americans is not a focus of this plan. The 110-page, Biden-Sanders “Unity Plan” was released last month. Some key-word searches yielded some very interesting — and revealing — results.  For example, God is never mentioned in the document. Not once. As for “religion,” that is found one time, specifically in the section dealing with private schools. It reads:  “Prohibit the disbursement of federal funds to organizations or providers that discriminate based on race, sex, religion, disability, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, or immigration status.” As for the word “faith,” it occurs four times. But two of those are in the phrase “bad faith.” The other two clearly refer to the Islamic faith, in this description of some of the alleged horrors of the Trump administration’s immigration policy: “banning people from traveling to the United States based on their faith or their country of origin” (repeated twi...

Mexico City bans treatment for unwanted LGBT attraction, threatens 5-year jail sentence

Image
Treatment to help overcome unwanted homosexual tendencies will soon be illegal in Mexico City under a new law enacted Friday by the city’s Legislative Assembly.  Under the legislation, which was first introduced two years ago, healthcare practitioners could spend up to five years in prison for conducting  “practices consisting of psychological, psychiatric sessions, methods or treatments that are intended to nullify, hinder, modify or impair the expression of gender identity, as well as the sexual orientation of people,” Mexico News Daily reported. Such treatments are commonly known as reparative or “conversion” therapy. THE BLIND PRO-LBGT ZEALOTS VIEW “There is nothing to cure. Homosexuality is not a disease, we are not sick,” declared the bill’s author, Morena party lawmaker Temístocles Villanueva.  I totally agree. It seems to me that these measures belong to the era of the Inquisition,” added Mexico City Mayor Claudia Sheinbaum. “It does not correspond to...

Hallmark commits to ‘LGBTQ storylines,’ caves to left-wing pressure

Image
One of television’s last refuges from identity politics will soon be no more, as the Hallmark Channel announced it will add homosexual and/or transgender stories to its film slate. “Diversity and inclusion is a top priority for us and we look forward to making some exciting programming announcements in the coming months, including announcements about projects featuring LGBTQ storylines, characters, and actors,” a Hallmark spokesperson revealed to People after receiving online complaints about the lack of obvious LGBT content in its 2020 lineup of holiday movies. “We are committed to creating a Hallmark experience where everyone feels welcome." For years, the Hallmark Channel’s made-for-TV movies have been a source of wholesome comfort entertainment in contrast to Hollywood’s increasingly “woke” output, which has also made it a target of pro-LGBT activists. Last fall, the channel temporarily aired a commercial for the wedding planning service Zola, featuring a same-sex “we...

Justice Neil Gorsuch error and betrayal

Image
Justice Neil Gorsuch, Trump’s first addition to the nation’s highest court, wrote the majority opinion for the ruling, which concluded that “sex discrimination” in Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act should be interpreted to mean sexual orientation and gender identity, in addition to its original biological meaning. "An employer who fires an individual for being homosexual or transgender fires that person for traits or actions it would not have questioned in members of a different sex,” Gorsuch wrote. “Sex plays a necessary and undisguisable role in the decision, exactly what Title VII forbids." Trump’s reaction did not discuss any of the details of the ruling and did not address the fact that his own administration weighed in against the position Gorsuch ultimately chose, by filing an amicus brief that argued that Title VII  “simply does not speak to discrimination because of an individual’s gender identity or a disconnect between an individual’s gender identit...

Supreme Court interpret 1964 law about sex to include transgenderism.

Image
Republican-appointed Justices John Roberts and Neil Gorsuch joined the U.S. Supreme Court’s liberals Monday in ruling that longstanding anti-discrimination law should be reinterpreted to cover homosexuality and gender confusion, in a case that will have drastic ramifications on religious liberty and force Americans to adopt a “fluid” understanding of biological sex in scores of policies.  Gorsuch, President Donald Trump’s first addition to the nation’s highest court, wrote the majority opinion for the 6-3 ruling, which concluded that “sex discrimination” in Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act should be interpreted to mean sexual orientation and gender identity, in addition to its original biological meaning. The case consolidated several suits into one, including that of a Christian funeral home that fired a male employee who insisted on dressing as a woman on the job; a skydiving instructor who was fired after informing a customer he was gay; and a county child welfare s...

Netflix defends packing shows with LGBT ‘representation’: ‘every gay person is very necessary’

Image
Even in a world as uniformly left-wing as Hollywood, Netflix’s weakness stands out, from leading the pro-abortion mob against Georgia to controversial productions such as The Two Popes. Some LGBT roles are inserted that have nothing at all to do with the storyline of the movie but are a sidetrack to satisfy a lobby group. It portrays the weakness of directors of movies.  Then we have aggressive LGBT roles where suddenly the dialogue goes sideways and we have a lengthy tiresome illogical justification of immoral LGBT. So we go from entertainment to LGBT agenda.  But one of the most pervasive manifestations of the streaming platform’s priorities is its glut of LGBT content. “LGBTQ” is a specific searchable genre, and one 2017 list counted a whopping 57 shows on the platform featuring gay characters. Naturally, not everyone is impressed, as evidenced by this tweet going viral last week:  The visual apparently resonated with enough people that Netflix’s social m...

Bill banning boys who say they’re girls from women’s sports passes Arizona House

Image
The Arizona House voted 31-29 Tuesday to pass legislation ensuring that female school athletes will only compete against other females rather than gender-confused boys who claim to be girls. House Bill 2706, the “Save Women's Sports Act,” would allow participants in high-school girls and college women’s athletics to dispute the biological sex of an athlete they suspect of actually being male, who would then have to produce a signed doctor’s statement confirming that genetic testing has identified them as female, CBS 5 reported. Accusers would also be shielded from retaliation. "Women are being displaced in their own sport. The playing field is no longer level," said Republican state Rep. Nancy Barto, the bill’s author. Calling the proposed requirement “cruel,” opponents of the bill claim it could open up transgender students to bullying – a charge Barto rejects. "I would say they're really not looking at the true motive of the bill. It's not singl...

Biden unveils ominous ‘LGTBQ+ equality’ plan to compel institutions to ‘enforce…advance’ gay ‘rights’

Image
Former Vice President and current Democrat presidential frontrunner Joe Biden released his official “LGBTQ+ equality” plan this week, a comprehensive document laying out how he would elevate homosexual and transgender “acceptance” above religious liberty and conscience rights if elected to the White House. “As President, Biden will stand with the LGBTQ+ community to ensure America finally lives up to the promise on which it was founded: equality for all,” the plan declares. “He will provide the moral leadership to champion equal rights for all LGBTQ+ people, fight to ensure our laws and institutions protect and enforce their rights, and advance LGBTQ+ equality globally.” First, the plan lists as a “top priority” enacting the so-called  Equality Act , which would amend the 1964 Civil Rights Act to include “sex,” “sexual orientation,” and “gender identity” among expressly recognized “non-discrimination” categories in “public accommodations” (the definition of which would be ...
