“What is the Left’s underlying motivation for relentlessly pushing transgenderism? Why do they revel in seeing so many confused young children? It is not for reasons of caring or concern for such individuals — much like their selective concern for shooting victims.”
(Jeff Davidson – Townhall) The issue of whether or not someone ought to change their sex is monumental. No longitudinal studies exist that reveal the satisfaction levels of those who have undergone radical surgeries and radical changes. Injecting children with hormones, hormone blockers, and other substances that the body did not generate poses great risks. The issue should not be left to anyone aged six to 16 years old.

(Lee Duigon – News With Views) Does each generation get the dinosaurs that it deserves?
18 “If the world hates you, know that it has hated Me before it hated you. 19 If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, because of this the world hates you. John 15:18-19 (LSB) 
“Buses are now pulling up to @JMHSBklyn and dropping off illegals. School is closed tomorrow because illegals will be sleeping in the school’s gym. This is disgraceful! NYC is prioritizing illegals over Americans.”
The 81-year-old Biden is going to “finish the job,” so what could she possibly be worried about?
(Victor Davis Hanson – American Greatness) In the last six months, we have borne witness to many iconic moments evidencing the collapse of American culture.
Fauci seems to still have the “science fair” attitude that he carried through the pandemic, not something where you realize, like what you’re saying has the impact literally on whether people live and die.”
“Historically, the claim of Jesus’ marriage to Mary Magdalene is as dry as the desert when it comes to credible evidence. It’s a narrative that first reared its bizarre head centuries after Jesus’ time, popping up in Gnostic writings.” 
(Revolver) Dr. Bret Weinstein, a popular podcaster, successful author, and former distinguished professor of evolutionary biology at Evergreen State College, has delivered a startling assessment of COVID-19 and the vaccine that could have monumental implications—we’re talking “game changer” type stuff.
“This is not how the US government should operate. Making matters even more stunning, the woman tasked with taking over Austin’s duties as Acting Secretary in the event of his incapacitation was also not aware that he was in that state. This could represent a serious military readiness and responsiveness issue, on top of the grave violations of basic transparency and good governance:”
“Yes, it will be nasty. Andrew Jackson and John Quincy Adams went after each other pretty hard. But those guys were muppets compared to the 2024 combatants.”
The Resistance Will Be Organized by Aaron M. Renn.
“In their efforts to avoid conflict or controversy, [pastors] often shy away from addressing topics that might clash with the dominant cultural worldview. This stems from a variety of motives, including a desire to maintain a semblance of peace, attract a larger following, or simply to avoid the responsibility that comes with guiding a congregation through the complexities of modern societal issues.”
(Ben Zeisloft – The Sentinel) Former Southern Baptist Convention President Ed Litton retains his role as a trustee at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary despite documented instances of plagiarism in his sermons, a reality which resurfaces in the wake of Harvard University President Claudine Gay resigning because of unearthed instances of plagiarism in her academic work.
“As repeatedly demonstrated by now, those who are heavily immersed in this belief system have become some of the biggest bullies, who seem to go out of their way to make the lives of anyone who questions their identity as miserable as possible. They cannot cope with facts about biological sex, and their initial reaction to pushback on their state of delusion is to scream and yell.”
“Star Wars fans are not sexist, racist, or whatever- phobic. They just love their franchise. They want good stories and characters about which they can care. They recognize when someone is trying to wreck it for no other reason than to score some woke points. Or phone it in for the money.”
“Before you jump to conclusions and try to argue that he’s simply trying to promote a biblical sexual ethic among people who “struggle” with this temptation, let’s…pause for a moment and apply that logic to other situations. What if we promote [sinners like] pedophiles, or thieves, or the greedy, or people who can’t mortify any other sin into church leadership? Would we say we needed more drunkards in church leadership?”

CCC was updated in 2017. Six years later I’ve decided to do one last update, this time to take a deeper dive into the sin problem in Christendom. I’ll begin with a few questions for readers to mull over: #1 Is it God’s desire for believers to have a biblical foundation? #2 Is it God’s desire for believers to exhibit Christlike behavior? #3 If a professing Christian were to wallow in a mud hole and eat slop with pigs, would God sluff it off and muse “That’s my boy,” or would He get angry?
So, how do we go about evaluating whether someone who claims to be a Christian is truly born again? Think of that individual as a fruit bearing tree. Eventually that tree should bring forth nourishing edible fruit. However, when trees bear no fruit, experienced inspectors who evaluate fruit must check to see what went wrong. Often the thing that becomes apparent is that a tree hasn’t produced fruit because there’s no root system to absorb water and nutrients. If that’s the problem, the tree is dead. It is impossible for a dead tree to sink its roots into the soil where water and nutrients are found. The fact of the matter is that a dead tree cannot produce nourishing edible fruit.
Our Lord spoke plainly when He said, “If anyone serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there will my servant be also. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.” 
“Illegal immigration is insidiously diminishing citizenship by equating illegal aliens with, if not making them preferable to, American citizens. Is there anything an illegal alien cannot do in Biden’s America—work in a campaign, vote in some elections, serve in the military, receive government subsidies? Crisscross international borders without a passport?…To put it another way, why did we expel 8,400 US military personnel for the “crime” of passing on the required but experimental mRNA vaccinations (most of the discharged had natural immunity from prior COVID infections), while we let in millions of foreigners without worrying whether any have been vaccinated for anything, much less have had COVID tests?”
