One of the most important issues afoot in our country today is the psychological, emotional and medical torture of schoolchildren in the names of causes such as "gender studies," "trans rights" and "gender affirming care."
This phenomenon - and I am going to say that it is all of a piece - represents the mutually reinforcing coalescence of a number of forces.

First, none of this would be possible without the complete rejection in the culture - including in the mainline religious denominations, of the fundamental denominations - of Man as not merely an evolutionary way station, but as the Pinnacle of Creation, created in God's image. >
By December, @dailypenn gloated over the shrinking enrollment in Wax's remaining classes.
