California Mom Reclaims Young Daughter From Clutches of Trans Agenda in Middle School—Here’s How – Epoch Times

29 May 2023 Michael A

California mom Erin Friday, 56, …her then 11-year-old daughter. It started innocently enough: just a few boyish-sounding nicknames …But innocent it was not. A few girls, including Friday’s young one, were heard chattering in the front yard about some new things they learned at school…. “Five girls, each one of them picked a label that was on the alphabet, and they actually kind of giggled at me and said, ‘You’re cis, and you don’t understand,’” Friday told The Epoch Times. “I had never heard the term ‘cis’ before, and then they said, ‘Okay boomer.’” …Friday’s once-girly daughter—a huge “My Little Pony” fan—started draping herself in baggy sweatshirts…. But as the “My Little Pony” fan crossed into “soldier girl” territory, lacing up combat boots; as long-haired female friends started assuming guys’ names; as the purple and green hair dye broke out, mom’s worry worsened. So, this curious culture began bearing its strange and noxious fruit. It became cool to have a label. As one girl identified as pansexual, another called herself polyamorous (open to multiple partners), nonsensically. “Half her Girl Scout troupe came out as transgender,” Friday said. Out came the breast binders. Girly voices suspiciously dropped low overnight. “My daughter picked ‘pansexual,’ she was 11….

Coming to a Street Corner Near You: Youth Arrested for Handing Out Bibles – The New American

28 May 2023 Michael A

Within four minutes of participating in a rally in Calgary, Canada, supporting a student’s defiance of the woke agenda being promoted in his high school, Josh Alexander was arrested. His alleged crime? Handing out Bibles to the student participants. The real reason? Josh Alexander, for whom the rally was named (the “I Stand with Josh Alexander” International Walkout Protest), has a history of defying the authorities in the name of Jesus Christ. …Kicking Josh out of school for expressing his Christian beliefs regarding sexuality and gender is unlawful religious discrimination.

The application details the shockingly discriminatory conduct of teachers and students at St. Joseph’s, as well as Principal [Derek] Lennox’s retaliatory decisions to suspend and exclude Josh for expressing his beliefs and organizing a student walk-out to protest St. Joseph’s policy of permitting biological males to enter and use the girls’ washrooms.

Oklahoma Governor Defunds State PBS Station, Citing ‘Over-Sexualization of Our Children’ – Epoch Times

8 May 2023 Michael A

Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt is defending his decision to cut funding for the Oklahoma Educational Television Authority (OETA), pointing to the “problematic” sexual content broadcasted that targeted children. Last week, Stitt, a Republican, vetoed a bill that sought to extend funding for OETA—the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) member station for Oklahoma—through 2026. …OETA broadcasted a segment called “Let’s Learn” that involved reading a children’s book that talks about drag queens. A “PBS Newshour” feature talked about parents’ support for various gender treatments for minors including puberty blockers, and a program on PBS Kids had a same-sex wedding while another included LGBT characters. …“Their ‘LGBTQ+Identity Kit’ is clearly a partisan effort to brainwash teachers and students, sowing seeds of division and hatred in an environment that should seek to protect our children, not use them as political pawns,” said CDF Chief Communications Officer Kristen Huber.

Where’s the Manifesto? – Epoch Times Commentary

10 Apr 2023 Michael A

…Which brings me to the missing “manifesto.” In the immediate aftermath of the murders, the police informed us that the obviously emotionally disturbed shooter was transgendered, something that was confirmed by the video of the killings at the Christian school, which shows the female-by-birth Audrey Hale dressed entirely like a macho terrorist. Further, they told us that she had left behind documents and a manifesto, explaining her actions. Then, as if by magic, we heard no more of the word transgendered in any of its forms, from the media or anywhere, nor, almost simultaneously, anything of the manifesto, except that it had been handed to the FBI for review. …As for the FBI, there’s no word so far on when they’ll release the manifesto, in original or redacted form. Sound familiar?

The Epidemic of Teen Depression: A National Scandal – Epoch Times Commentary

25 Mar 2023 Michael A

The numbers are grim: “In 2021, 57% of high-school girls reported experiencing persistent feelings of sadness or hopelessness in the past year, compared with 36% in 2011. Thirty percent reported they seriously considered attempting suicide in 2021, up from 19% in 2011.” …There’s a strong indicator in the Wall Street Journal report: It turns out that depression is assailing liberal and progressive kids disproportionately. The progressive worldview is downright depressing, and those who are pushing those doom-and-gloom views—particularly educators and politicians—are to blame for getting so many impressionable young people hooked on sadness and pessimism.

The Pretended Neutrality Fallacy – by Pastor Patrick Hines

13 Feb 2023 Michael A

In the 18-minute video of this post, Pastor Patrick Hines explains two fallacies that undermine the worldviews of people who go around saying, “the science says;” and those who subscribe to the theory of evolution. By knowing the contents of this video, Christians can also gain some understanding into how it is that one’s presuppositions form the basis for his worldview and one’s worldview determines how one explains the world around him.
