Dems: Ben Carson is ‘transphobic’ for trying to keep men out of women’s shelters

Image
A pair of Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives has introduced a resolution condemning what they say is the “transphobic history” of Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Dr. Ben Carson. Reps. Mike Quigley of Illinois and Katie Hill of California, the only self-declared “bisexual” in the U.S. House, acted in response to comments that Dr. Carson made to HUD employees in San Francisco expressing concern about “big, hairy men” pretending to be female in order to infiltrate women’s homeless shelters. The HUD Secretary also reportedly said that society could no longer differentiate between men and women. “I made reference to the fact that I had heard from many women’s groups about the difficulty they were having with women’s shelters because sometimes men would claim to be women, and that HUD’s policy required the shelter to accept — without question — the word of whoever came in,” Carson wrote in response to criticism of his comments. “This made many of the ...

Equality Act will force people into homosexuality, then destroy free speech

Image
As a teenager, Nate Oyloe was attracted to other boys. Hoping to change his sexual attractions, he sought therapy. Today, he is happily married to a woman. Most people would be glad that Nate has achieved the life he wanted. But not everyone is. Lawmakers in his home state of Minnesota recently passed a law banning the kind of therapy Nate received to help him overcome his unwanted same-sex attraction. To date, twenty states and many cities have made it illegal to offer therapy for minors unless it affirms the LGBT agenda — and several more are considering similar bans. In these jurisdictions, therapists may help a child or teen accept same-sex attraction or different gender identity, but they will not help a teen who aspires to change his same-sex attraction or sexual identity. It is illegal even to ask questions to help a child explore underlying issues related to sexual orientation or gender identity. And if the federal Equality Act is enacted, it will be illegal across all ...

Joe Biden is no ‘moderate Democrat.’ He’s an LGBT extremist

Image
Joe Biden is not a "middle of the road" Democrat — if there is such a thing in the party of proud infanticide laws, anti-Semitic smears, and approved invasion of our southern border. Only short memories would occupy the "Joe Biden is a moderate" camp. History does not support that view, at least not about Joe's alliance with harmful "LGBTQ" behaviors and lifestyles — even when children are being targeted and endangered. Joe Biden  officiated  at the "marriage" of two male White House staffers in 2016. He  publicly expressed support  for faux nuptials in 2012, even before Obama did. And when it comes to faithful Christian Americans, handsy Joe told a cheering homosexual audience last fall that we believers use religion as a "license to discriminate." It's on tape from September 2018 ( listen to his bigoted rant here  beginning at around 20:12). He referred to those who support President Trump's policies as the ...

Author caught out - Gay lies

Image
Prominent feminist Naomi Wolf has a new book coming out that purports to expose new horrors about the historical criminalization of homosexuality, but her promotional efforts hit a snag this week when an interviewer confronted her with a significant factual error behind the book’s premise. Releasing on June 18 in the United States (and already available in the United Kingdom), Outrages: Sex, Censorship, and the Criminalization of Love purports to detail “how a single English law in 1857 led to a maelstrom” of oppression against consensual homosexual relationships across both England and the United States. This week Wolf sat down for an interview with the BBC’s Matthew Sweet to promote the book, but the conversation took an awkward turn when Sweet explained that her thesis rested on a misunderstanding of a key legal term related to the law in question. Wolf claimed to have reviewed records indicating “several dozen executions” for sodomy despite a popular “misapprehension” that “the la...

The chilling evidence that Jordan Peterson was right: transgender ideology is ‘totalitarian’

Image
A so-called "human rights tribunal" in Canada has just ruled that a Christian activist must pay $55,000 to a provincial politician because he referred to this politician as a "biological male" in a political pamphlet. The politician in question, Morgane Oger (born Ronan Oger), is a biological male. However, he has since "transitioned," and is living his life as a "transgender woman." According to the decision, Bill Whatcott must compensate Oger for injuring the latter's "dignity, feelings, and self-respect." The terrifying precedent set by this case can be illustrated by one, flabbergasting fact: The judge in the case refused to allow Whatcott's lawyer to offer testimony showing that, in point of fact, Oger is a biological male. According to the judge, "the 'truth' of [Whatcott's] statements in the flyer is not a defense." As such, said the judge, "evidence is simply not relevant to the legal issu...

Why it’s absurd for gay pro-abortion Pete Buttigieg to question Trump’s faith

Image
If ever there was a glaring instance of the pot calling the kettle black it was when South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg, a professing Christian and practicing homosexual, called President Trump a hypocritical Christian. Seriously? To be clear, I have no problem with someone questioning whether President Trump is a true Christian. An evangelical friend of mine who has met with Trump on several occasions recently told me that he does not believe the president has had a true conversion experience but that he does truly fear God. Other friends have told me they believe that Trump loves Jesus but is a mere babe when it comes to the Christian faith. Ultimately, only God knows the state of Donald Trump's soul. But I fully understand why people question his Christian faith, based on his past life (before becoming president) and his current behavior (as president). One thing, though, is sure: Donald Trump does not claim to be a model Christian, nor should we look to him for an exam...

Pro-LGBT Equality Act alarms conservatives, feminists: Women’s rights ‘will cease to exist’

Image
Not only conservative organizations, but even feminists and one homosexual activist are warning against House Democrats’ “Equality Act,” which they fear will squelch free speech and endanger religious freedoms guaranteed by the Bill of Rights. The conservative Heritage Foundation summarized the threats posed by the bill, noting its potential for “substantial harm.” Heritage warned, “It would force doctors who do not agree with SOGI [Sexual Orientation Gender Identity] ideology to violate their consciences” and “compel speech for all Americans with ‘preferred pronoun’ policies” and “destroy women’s and girls’ sports by forced inclusion of biological men and boys,” among other effects. “Many of these concerns have come to fruition in the 24 states that have already implemented bills similar to H.R. 5,” it said. Gay rights advocate Greg Angelo wrote at the Washington Inquirer: “Don’t be fooled by the name: The Equality Act is legislation that would compromise American civil rights ...

Virginia school board halts transgender bathroom policy after community outcry

Image
As a former area high school student continues to fight the matter in court, a school board in Virginia says it’s holding off implementation of a new policy to force students to share restrooms with members of the opposite sex. Gavin Grimm is a female Gloucester High School graduate who “identifies” as male and has been the face of one of the country’s most high-profile transgender bathroom lawsuits since 2014. The Gloucester County School Board originally attempted to accommodate her request by letting her use a private restroom, but Grimm demanded access to the same restrooms used by male students. District Judge Arenda Wright Allen sided with Grimm last May , ruling that the policy “classified Mr. Grimm differently on the basis of his transgender status and, accordingly, subjected him to sex stereotyping.” The year before, the U.S. Supreme Court had decided not to hear the case. The case is slated to go on in U.S. District Court in July. In the meantime, Fox News reports , the sch...

Florida school investigates teacher who read book about homosexual rabbits to kids

Image
A teacher in Florida is being questioned by school authorities for reading a gay-affirming book to elementary-school students. A so-far unnamed teacher read “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver presents A Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo”  without previously informing school authorities  or parents, according to local TV reports. It is a parody presented by British comedian John Oliver that depicts a homosexual rabbit who lives at the White House and seeks to be united with another male rabbit.

Christian adoption agency fights New York’s ultimatum to accept LGBTQ doctrine or close its doors

Image
Attorneys from the nonprofit Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) are asking the state of New York to stop singling out and punishing a Christian adoption agency because of its religious beliefs. In an interview, ADF attorney Jeana Hallock said at today’s hearing before Judge Mae A. D’Agostino, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York heard the appeal by New Hope Family Services for a preliminary injunction against the state of New York. According to Hallock, D’Agostino expects to issue a ruling soon on that request and also a request for dismissal issued by attorneys for New York. According to ADF, New York’s Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS) is threatening to shut down New Hope Family Services because of the religious nonprofit’s policy of prioritizing the placement of children for adoption in homes with a married mother and father. In a lawsuit against the state, New Hope asked a federal court in December to stop OCFS from targeting New Hope so that ...

Support rises for religious Americans’ right not to participate in same-sex events

Image
Public opinion on whether business owners should be forced to participate in same-sex “weddings” has shifted significantly over the past year, a new survey reveals. Forty-six percent of Americans believe business owners such as  bakers ,  florists ,  caterers ,  invitation designers ,  photographers , and  venue hosts  should be allowed to refuse service and 48 percent do not, according to a  newly-released survey  by the Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI). In August 2017, just 41 percent sided with business owners and 53 percent favored coercion. While white Americans’ views on the subject remain largely unchanged, support for conscience rights rose most sharply among black Americans, 45 percent of whom answered that businesses should be allowed to refuse service (up from 36 percent last year). Only a minority of Hispanics agree, but there too the share rose from 26 percent to 34 percent. R...
