What are you up to, tonight, Katy? Nothing much, just attending the @WomensLibFront event, shrouded by police b/c of protesters & bomb threat- because these rad fems have the audacity to say “men can’t become women.” #Newmisogyny
Several disruptive protesters, shouting, w bull horns, already removed by police.
I disagree w these women on numerous issues. But they are taking heat b/c they think there should be no bio males in rape shelters, on girls sports teams and in locker rooms despite being escorted in a separate door by police. Grateful for their courage.
In my 30 years of ministry, I’ve seen pastors, small group leaders, BSF teachers, and decades-long faithful pew-sitters begin to slide almost always because someone close to them identifies as LGBT. Whether it’s a child, sibling, neighbor, or friend, the ultimatum is clear: affirm me, or affirm God’s truth. You have to choose.
When those in our innermost circle openly defy God’s righteous decrees and we offer no objection, we take the first step down a slippery moral slope. The bottom of that slope is often full apostasy. Because if you cannot trust God’s verifiably objective and beneficial standards concerning gender, sex, and marriage, why would you trust the harder to verify claims like the resurrection, virgin birth, and his promise to come again to judge the living and the dead?
The Conservative, Pro-Life Case Against Surrogacy 🧵
First, surrogacy critique must stem from defending the child. Bioethics and feminist opposition is strong, but can fall flat when all parties — the egg seller, surrogate, and commissioning parents — all love and consent to the arrangement.
A conservative position rejects surrogacy based on the self-evident, natural rights of the child:
• Right to life
• Right to their mother and father
• Right to be born free and not bought and sold.
The child never consent to the intentional loss of his or her mother.
