GAY MARRIAGE AND IMPACT ON CHILDREN

Posted on by

A 2015 ABC Lateline interview revisited: Katy Faust, raised by lesbian mothers, calmly dismantles Australia’s most probing journalist with compelling, child-centred arguments against same-sex marriage.

In 2015, a quietly spoken yet courageous ‘mom’ and pastor’s wife from America, Katy Faust, appeared on the ABC’s Lateline. Fast forward to 2026, and Faust is one of the most courageous spokespersons in the world for the rights of children, especially as they relate to the injustice of gay marriage. All this from a woman whose greatest boast is as a ‘mom’ and a wife of a Christian pastor.

When it comes to Katy’s interview on Australia’s tax-funded national broadcaster, though, you have to realise this was still a couple of years before the institution of marriage was redefined. Apparently, we couldn’t be trusted to behave civilly in a plebiscite, let alone a democratically appropriate mechanism such as a referendum. No, our federal politicians sought to change the most important legislation ever essentially by a voluntary, non-binding, postal version of Survey Monkey©.

Stepping into the modern-day lion’s den of our only occasional national broadcaster (which is Australia’s version of CNN, or what the US President pejoratively simply refers to as ‘fake news’), Katy was at the time serving on the academic and testimonial council of the International Children’s Rights Institute. And while Tony Jones is arguably one of the best interviewers in the country, I don’t think even he was prepared for the stellar quality of the rapid-fire answers he was about to receive.

Jones had pre-prepared a number of pointed political and personal questions which most guests would have honestly stumbled over, at least at one point. But in the sovereign providence of God, 12 August 2015 was not going to be one of those times.

What you’re about to read next is a transcript of what took place, and you have to remember that none of these questions were given with prior notice. What you’re going to find is that Mrs Faust’s answers were as concise as they were cogent. And because of the timeless nature of the truth she was presenting, her answers remain as relevant and as true as they were when she first gave them.

So, make yourself a coffee or tea, and be prepared to be blown away by a pastor’s wife schooling one of Australia’s most left-leaning journalists on why gay marriage should never have occurred. Jones’ questions, Katy’s answers and my own (Mark Powell – MP) relatively short commentary follow:

Question 1

TJ        Have you been able to talk to any politicians yet?

KF       We did. My partner in crime, Millie Fontana, who is a resident of Melbourne and also raised by two mothers [as was I], had a chance to talk to a couple of members of parliament yesterday.

MP      Notice how Jones immediately tries to put Katy on the back foot by asking her if anyone has been prepared to even meet with her, let alone listen to and be persuaded by what she has to say. Katy responds, though, that indeed, some members of parliament have been willing to meet with her. What’s more, this is not just an American sticking their nose into our own politics, because she was also joined by the outspoken Aussie opponent to gay marriage, Millie Fontana. Someone who, significantly, was not a Christian, but had precisely the same concerns as Katy has regarding the rights of children. And so Jones presses the point with this follow-up question…

Question 2

TJ        Not the Prime Minister so far?

KF       No. No, he hasn’t called yet.

MP      Sadly Tony Abbott never did, and precisely one month later, on 15 September 2015, he was removed by his own party in favour of Malcolm Turnbull. The reason why that particular phone call was explained by Brendon O’Neill on the ABC’s Q&A just a couple of days later. As the editor for Spiked said:

“The reason Tony Abbott is very defensive on this issue and is umming and aring and shifting from the free vote to the not free vote and all this, is because he clearly has a problem with gay marriage, but he can’t articulate it because we live in a climate in which it’s not acceptable, as we’ve just seen in Sam’s (Dastyari) attack on Katy calling her hateful and saying she’s talking claptrap. It’s not acceptable to express this sentiment in public life. And I think [applause] Tony Abbot is now being described as someone from the dark ages for believing what humanity has believed for thousands of years.

Within the space of a decade something that humanity has believed for thousands of years has suddenly become a form of bigotry, a form of hate, something you’re not allowed to express in public life. That extraordinary shift in intolerance is something I think all liberals, like me, should be worried about. Gay marriage is not a liberal issue, it has a deeply illiberal streak.”

Question 3

TJ       Now, how is it that the daughter of lesbian mothers has become a leading opponent of gay marriage? How does that work?

KF       Simply because while I recognise that while my mother was a fantastic mother and most of what I do well as a mother myself, I do because that’s how she parented me, she can’t be a father. Her partner, an incredible woman, both of these women have my heart, cannot be a father either. Children have a right to be in relationship with their mother and father whenever possible, and as a society, we shouldn’t normalise a family structure that requires children to lose one or both parents to be in that household.

MP      This goes to the very essence of the whole issue. Having a child is not the same thing as purchasing a puppy. That is because children are people and not someone’s personal property. What this also means is that as human beings, they also have innate rights, of which one of the most important is the right to be raised by the mother and father who produced them. Becoming a parent carries with it wonderful joys, but also a lifelong responsibility. This is also why the act of procreation has been considered to be so sacred.

Question 4

TJ       Now trying to sway the US Supreme Court to rule against gay marriage, you wrote to Justice Anthony Kennedy before that vote, and you said, “You used to say I’m happy my parents got divorced so I could get to know all you wonderful women.” Now you seem to be saying that was all a lie…?

KF       Well, there’s a lot of pressure on children of gay parents to please their parents, to sort of carry the banner forward for them, and you can read about this not just in conservative publications but even books like Families Like Mine, which was publicised by a pro-gay marriage daughter of gays. And she admitted, and several of the kids in that book admitted, that it’s very difficult to be honest about this because of the political pressure surrounding this topic. There are several children who have contacted me ever since I started writing about this, saying, I agree with you, but I’ll never come out and speak about this publicly, because my relationship with my parents is too tenuous.

MP      This is an incredibly important point which is rarely allowed to be expressed. If you’ve never seen this, watch the following moving presentation by Millie-Fontana, who talks about the heartbreak and trauma from not knowing who her father was because she was donor-conceived and raised by lesbian parents.

Question 5

TJ       Now Katy, did you find God somewhere in this journey towards anti-gay marriage?

KF       Well, I was not raised a Christian, but I did become a Christian in high school.

MP      Yes, Katy is a Christian. But as Millie Fontana—who is not a Christian—pointed out in the above video, you don’t have to be religious to understand that gay marriage creates inequality for children. What Millie Fontana said back in 2015 has proven to be prophetic when she said in a speech, “This is an extremist minority that are pushing, from my opinion, what seems to be extinction of gender in itself. I don’t see gender equality. I see a pitch to get rid of gender altogether.”

While people at the time viewed her prediction as extreme, just over ten years later, I don’t know anyone who disagrees about just how right she was!

Question 6

TJ       And did that change things? I mean, did you decide that homosexuality was against the Scriptures, against God’s will, something of that nature?

KF       Well, it took a long time, honestly, for me to get on board with what Biblical sexuality says because there’s a very fierce protectiveness, I think, all children have for their parents, but what I was delighted to find when I read Scripture, is that God has an incredible heart for the orphan, and that He’s very concerned for the plight of children.

And that lines up very much with where we need to go in this discussion, which is focusing on the rights of children primarily as opposed to emphasising the desires of adults, which tend to take centre-stage when we’re talking about this issue.

MP      Katy is clever in how she pivots on the question here because rather than saying what the Bible is against, she reaffirms what God is for. And it’s not without significance that so often in the Bible He calls Himself the Father of the fatherless and defender of widows – i.e. Psalm 68:5.

Question 7

TJ       After your parents divorced—because you originally had a father and a mother—they divorced. Your father, you say, went off with other women… Why have you focused your main criticism on the homosexual part of the equation and not your father?

KF       Well, I think that I’m pretty fair in my statements to say that whether you’re heterosexual or homosexual, children have rights. And the onus needs to be on adults to conform to the rights of children, rather than children fitting into an adult’s lifestyle.

And certainly, I don’t think that homosexuals are responsible by any means for the crisis that we face in America when it comes to family structure these days. Absolutely, heterosexuals have led the way on that charge.

I got into this discussion primarily because what I heard from the gay lobby was that children don’t care who’s raising them, right? That children are just fine if it’s two men or two women, and the reality is that anybody who’s talked to a child who has lost a parent, whether through divorce, abandonment, third-party reproduction or death, kids absolutely care. Family structure matters to children.

And so I heard the LGBT lobby say it doesn’t matter, they [children] don’t care, and I think that that’s reality.

MP      Once again, especially if you’ve skipped over it and haven’t watched the above speech by Millie Fontana. Children do care whether they are being raised by both of their biological parents. As Katy rightly says, “They absolutely do!”

Question 8

TJ       You were also motivated politically when President Obama announced his support for same-sex marriage, and you set up an anonymous blog called “Ask the Bigot”. Why did you do that, why did you call it that to start with, and what happened when you did it?

KF       Yes, well, you know, strangely the URL wasn’t taken for that web name, not sure why..

But it was kind of born in an angry moment. I’m not really a confrontational person, but what happened when Obama ‘evolved’ is, to me, it felt like the media was free to play the bigot card. So now everybody who doesn’t support gay marriage is a bigot, right? Because either you’re isolated and you don’t know any gay people, or you’re indoctrinated, or you’re homophobic, or you’re the equivalent of a racist.

And they were not giving any attention to people who had a genuine argument, a well-founded, secular, convincing argument for supporting traditional marriage. And so I started blogging anonymously…

MP      Ten years after same-sex marriage was introduced, and we’ve seen an increasing intolerance and hatred towards people of faith, particularly those who are Jews but also Christians. There were warning signs of this happening even at the time. Just take, for instance, the bombing of the Australian Christian Lobby’s office in Canberra, and the AFP’s seeming reluctance to prosecute.

Even the ABC’s Media Watch covered the mainstream media deception with the fake “Stop the Fags” posters being put up around Melbourne. Don’t know what I’m referring to? Then take a look at this post.

Question 9

TJ       I was going to make that point… you started blogging anonymously, what happened? Why did you go public, as it were?

KF       I didn’t. I was ‘outed’ by a gay blogger who felt like I needed to be held accountable for my stance. And the truth is that I would not have filed a brief with the Supreme Court—I wouldn’t be having this interview with you today—because I never intended to be involved in the legal fight. But because I was outed in the name of love and tolerance, I am talking with you today.

MP      Well, that one certainly backfired, didn’t — God 1 vs Gay Blogger 0.

Question 10

TJ       So just going to that Supreme Court decision, in June, Justice Kennedy authored — the same man you wrote to — authored the Supreme Court’s decision in favour of same-sex marriage. He began in agreement with you, saying that no union is more profound than marriage. But he said of the gay people who had petitioned the court, it would be to misunderstand these men and women to say they disrespect the idea of marriage. Their plea is that they respect it so much, respect it so deeply, that they seek to find its fulfilment for themselves. And now, obviously, the court agreed that their dignity was the critical thing here. Why do you disagree with that position?

KF       Well, because they have dignity, right? Single parents have dignity. People who have never been married have dignity. You don’t gain dignity by government bestowing that on you. You just have it. The question is not whether or not they have dignity, and the question is not even really whether or not they have the capacity to love and commit the way heterosexuals do — they do. They absolutely do!

The question is, what is government’s interest in marriage? It’s really not about affirming the connections that we have with one another; it has to do with the product of those unions, and there’s something distinct about the product of a union between heterosexuals. What’s distinct is that they make babies. And those babes have rights, and those babies deserve protection.

MP      This is another brilliant response because it highlights by what standard ethical decisions are made. If it is merely whatever the most popular opinion of the day is — well, it’s unreliable since it changes as often as the election promises of politicians. Without some kind of objective criterion to assess it, though, the slogan “love is love” is as practically useful as saying, “cat food is cat food”. That’s all well and good if the food the cat wants to eat is good, but what if a cat consumes something like ‘chocolate’? (Hint: it never ends well.) In the same way, though, ‘love is love’ without a boundary opens an immoral Pandora’s box of every kind of sexual depravity.

We Cannot Be Silent!

All I can say, especially after Katy’s answer to that last question, is ‘BOOM’, as my children like to say. There was something about this whole interview that reminded me of Jesus’ promise in the Gospels when He sends out the twelve on mission:

“I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves. Be on your guard; you will be handed over to the local councils and be flogged in the synagogues. On my account you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles. But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it. At that time you will be given what to say, for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.” (Matthew 10:16-20)

BUILDING FAMILIES

Posted on by

Families don’t grow by themselves; they need dedication, commitment and self-sacrifice. Mary Eberstadt is an American researcher and writer. In conversation with John Anderson, Mary said:

“Politicians should look at every possible experiment to make it easier to get married, easier to have families, and easier to have families of size… One of the most frustrating things in the United States, for which we have very good laws, is obscenity, and yet there are no prosecutions for the creators of pornography. We need to go after this, it’s a proven contributor to romantic trouble, to marital breakup, and it is often cited in divorce cases. American parents seem to be waking up to the problem of what is being taught in American public schools, this is all to the good. The privileging of motherhood would be a great thing to bring back. Hungary is experimenting with some very interesting ideas. For example, women with four or more children do not have to pay income tax for the rest of their lives.“

While We Were Sleeping, here in Australia, there has been near silence on the family; the cry has always been about the rights of the individual or a minority. (The Family First Party under Lyle Shelton being an invaluable exception). Society seems to have accepted that shattered families are simply our daily reality, one in three marriages ending in divorce, quoted Warwick Marsh.

However, there is encouragement. Stephen Turley, in his study of demography (the study of changes in the number of births, deaths, and marriages, etc, in a particular area over a specified period of time), quotes from Eric Kaufmann’s 2002 study of American demographic trends, which suggested ‘religious fundamentalists are on course to take over the world.’ (Self-identified non-religious women only had 1.5 children per couple, compared with conservative evangelical women who had 2.5 children, replacement fertility being defined as 2.1 children).

Consequently, the socialist left, supporters of homosexuality, gender transition, abortion, euthanasia and the fear of climate change are having fewer babies than replacement and will breed out, while conservative evangelicals who trust in God are going forth and multiplying! (Genesis 1:28)

The Rights of the Child

Katy Faust is the founder and president of the children’s rights organisation Them Before Us, a global non-profit. In 2021, together with Stacey Manning, they published Them Before Us: Why We Need a Global Children’s Rights Movement.

The same-sex marriage agenda got these ladies involved, as they were angry that the so-called rights of adults were being recognised, while immense harm was being inflicted on the children, who became pawns to be traded in the marketplace of feelings. It is ironic that one of the hallmarks of the progressives has been their stand for the rights of minorities, yet they have set back children’s rights by decades.

Dying to Self

For me, the biggest take-home from this chapter on family is the principle of dying to self for the flourishing of family.

Often, as followers of Jesus, we don’t ‘present your bodies a living sacrifice’ (Romans 12:1) as Jesus clearly did when He died for our sins. Only when we die can Jesus shine through us. The apostle Paul acknowledged, in the last days, ‘men will be lovers of themselves’ (2 Timothy 3:2), so true. Marriage is the ultimate death of two that one might live; the Scripture says that ‘the two shall become one flesh’ (Mark 10:8).

For half a century, I have treasured this anonymous depiction of dying to self — it always catches me out:

  1. When you are forgotten, or neglected, or purposely set at naught, and you don’t sting and hurt with the insult or the oversight, but your heart is happy, being counted worthy to suffer for Christ… That is dying to self.
  2. When your good is evil spoken of, when your wishes are crossed, your advice disregarded, your opinions ridiculed, and you refuse to let anger rise in your heart or even defend yourself, but take it all in patient loving silence… That is dying to self.
  3. When you lovingly and patiently bear any disorder, any irregularity, any unpunctuality, or any annoyance; when you can stand face to face with waste, folly, extravagance, spiritual insensibility…and endure it as Jesus endured it… That is dying to self.
  4. When you are content with any food, any offering, any raiment, any climate, any society, any solitude, and interruption by the will of God… That is dying to self.
  5. When you never care to refer to yourself in conversation, or to record your own good works, or itch after commendation, when you can truly love to be unknown… That is dying to self.
  6. When you can see your brother prosper and have his needs met and can honestly rejoice with him in spirit and feel no envy nor question God, while your own needs are far greater and in desperate circumstances… That is dying to self.
  7. When you can receive correction and reproof from one of less stature than yourself, and can humbly submit inwardly as well as outwardly, finding no rebellion or resentment rising up within your heart… That is dying to self.

I pray that our families might be filled with joy as their dominant characteristic. Fathers, what about Proverbs 5:18 (MSG): “Your spring water is for you and you only, not to be passed around among strangers. Bless your fresh-flowing fountain! Enjoy the wife you married as a young man! Lovely as an angel, beautiful as a rose — don’t ever quit taking delight in her body. Never take her love for granted! Why would you trade enduring intimacies for cheap thrills with a prostitute? for dalliance with a promiscuous stranger?“

From this committed bedrock to our marriages, let’s build strong families, giving our children a secure, lasting and firm foundation for the adventure of their lifetime.

LATEST ON GENDER TRANSITION PROCEDURES

Posted on by

President Trump has issued an executive order to take the various state laws on Gender Transition for Minors up to the national level.

“This executive order is beautiful. The language in it is wonderful,” Family Research Council Senior Fellow Meg Kilgannon gushed. “It’s very well written. It’s very clear. And it protects parents. It protects children. It ends the reliance on junk science and will stop the promotion of using the WPATH guidelines. That’s huge. And it directs the federal government to review: what is the state of the science on this? What is the research into the effects of these treatments, so-called treatments on children?”

“This is quite extensive,” Family Research Council President, Tony Perkins agreed. “Not only does it address the issue of transgender sexual mutilation that is taking place, but it shows how much the federal government is involved in everything.” The executive order affects “institutions that get [federal] grants,” he continued, “and that’s almost every institution of higher learning that may have a hospital associated with it.” It also affects the military health care system, and it instructs the Department of Justice to treat some gender transition surgeries as female genital mutilation.

Future

Trump’s executive order also places his administration on the side of those fighting to protect children. “Now we will have the wind at our backs, instead of fighting the headwinds of the Biden administration, which was enforcing all of the opposite of this,” Kilgannon said.

“I love these executive orders — most of them,” said Perkins. “But they’re executive orders. They can be undone four years from now.” He called on Congress and state legislatures “to start seeing policy adopted into law that is anchored to truth, common sense. … Now, with the wind at our backs, this needs to be translated into public policy at the state and even the federal level.”

In fact, Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) “has already introduced a bill to protect children against child abuse of these procedures,” noted Kilgannon. “It’s really a wonderful time to think about the possibilities.”

For all the labor expended in fighting to protect children from gender transition procedures, it’s encouraging to see that translate into federal policy under the Trump administration. However, the possibility that some future administration will reverse this policy is a reminder that the fight is not over until there is legislation to back up this order.

END TIMES SIGN: US STUDY SHOWS 14,000 CHILDREN HAVE UNDERGONE TRANS PROCEDURES

Posted on by

The transgender industry has exploded from a trickle of young males seeking transition procedures to thousands upon thousands of minors who have filled the industry’s bank account with more than $100 million, according to a groundbreaking new report. This is a significant end-times sign. God will not countenance this happening to children.

The group Do No Harm has found nearly 14,000 minors have undergone transgender surgeries, puberty blockers, or cross-sex hormone injections between 2019 and 2023, generating almost $120 million in revenue. This is now big business and nothing but God stepping in will stop it. The report documents that during those years:

  • 13,994 children received transgender-related treatments 
  • 5,747 transgender “sex change” operations were carried out on children
  • “62,682 hormone and puberty blockers prescriptions [were] written for 8,579 pediatric patients”
  • “At least $119,791,202 made from sex change treatments performed on minors”

“This data release is really a nuclear bomb,” Dr. Miriam Grossman told guest host Jody Hice on “Washington Watch” Wednesday. “We are led to believe by politicians and many groups that these interventions are rare and hardly happening in this country. And that is simply not true.”

These experimental procedures have proliferated, partly because of money, but also because “the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Psychiatric Association for many years have been taken over by a small group of activists who simply push their agendas forward and stifle debate,” Grossman noted. “And too many of my colleagues are simply spineless and unwilling to speak up against it.”

The study’s numbers, which tracked insurance data, “also are not counting any of the treatments that were paid for privately,” noted Grossman, a practicing psychiatrist. “While this data represents the tip of the iceberg, this is the first step in holding the medical establishment accountable for participating in, and often times promoting, predatory and unscientific medical interventions for vulnerable children,” said the chairman of Do No Harm, Dr. Stanley Goldfarb.

The procedures sometimes generated millions of dollars for the facility. according to the database, Boston Children’s Hospital raked in over $5 million. The group released its list of the “Dirty Dozen” hospitals that most profited off pediatric transgender procedures, which includes:

  • The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia
  • Connecticut Children’s Medical Center
  • Children’s Minnesota
  • Seattle Children’s
  • Children’s Hospital Los Angeles
  • Boston Children’s Hospital
  • Rady Children’s Hospital
  • Children’s National Medical Center
  • UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland
  • Children’s Hospital Colorado
  • UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh
  • Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center

“Some of these hospitals are actually activists; they are reaching out into the community and promoting their services,” Grossman told Hice.iws9

Yet not everyone has bowed “the knee” to the industry’s consensus. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) has refused to endorse “any organization’s practice recommendations for the treatment of adolescents with gender dysphoria” and acknowledged that “there is considerable uncertainty as to the long-term efficacy for the use of chest and genital surgical interventions, and the existing evidence base is viewed as low quality/low certainty.”

Still, the damage has been profound, experts say. Thanks to transgender activists, children are being permanently “physically disfigured. They’re losing the capacity to have biological children in the future. Many of them will have impaired sexual functioning, inability to have sexual pleasure, and many, many other medical and psychiatric problems,” said Grossman. “There’s so many mental health issues for many reasons. And, one big reason is that we are misrepresenting reality to these children, and we are leading them to think that they can just keep [allowing] each person [to] create their own reality. That is extremely destructive from a mental health perspective.”

The procedures often trigger lifelong regret. “We’ve had over 4,000 or 5,000 people that we’ve helped through our website, working with them one-on-one, who have come back and restored their life,” Walt Heyer, who lived for years as a woman before embracing his God-given sex, told a panel at the 2024 Pray Vote Stand Summit (PVSS) in Washington, D.C. last weekend.

Like many transgender-identifying young people, Heyer was psychologically, physically, and sexually abused as a child. Today, he says, he hears aspects of his own story in thousands of young people who speak with him.

“When people approach me and they say, ‘I’m a transgender. I transitioned and I have gender dysphoria,’ I always say, ‘Well, you’re not a transgender. You never transitioned, and you probably don’t have gender dysphoria,’” Heyer said. “That’s not gender dysphoria. That’s trauma.”

“It is categorically impossible to change your gender with hormones and surgery,” Heyer pointed out. “No one has ever changed genders. They’ve changed their persona.”

Once led down the transgender medical pipeline of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and unnecessary surgery, these minor patients have no formal financial — and all-too-often, psychological — support. “We see a population that is vulnerable, that has been taken advantage of, that has no means of intervention, because once they go through ‘gender-affirming care,’ there’s no insurance to go through a detransitioning process. There is no insurance to cover the trauma that happens to someone who’s been told by the medical community, ‘This is the way you’re going to get better,” Dr. Jennifer Bauwens, director of the Center for Family Studies at Family Research Council, told PVSS.

She continued, “If we know that trauma is high in a population, what we should be doing is including that variable in every piece of research that we produce, because it’s significant and we need to understand the population well, but not when it comes to the transgender research literature. They don’t include it. They’re not curious [about] why self-harm is so high in this population. And in fact, the very act of ‘gender-affirming care’ is self-harm, which is an expression of trauma.’”

Less than one-third of Americans say they support any kind of transgender procedures for minors in a Rasmussen poll. A strong majority (58%) of Americans oppose all transgender procedures — including supposedly reversible puberty blockers and hormone injections — for children under 18; 47% “strongly oppose” such procedures. 

“The stats in this database represent thousands of kids who are being treated like Guinea pigs for unproven, and sometimes dangerous, medical experiments. I hope politicians and parents alike use this database to see where these treatments are happening and protect their children from being rushed into irreversible, life-altering treatments,” said Do No Harm Senior Fellow and Patient Advocate Chloe Cole.

Thus far, the 2024 Republican presidential campaign has said little about the procedures. Instead, since August, the Trump campaign has focused on a $65 million ad campaign opposing transgender-identifying athletes taking part in women’s sports and taxpayer-funded transgender procedures for inmates in prison.

“If I had it my way, we would close every gender clinic in the United States and stop this nonsense. We need to get a backbone, and we need to stand up and say we are destroying lives. We are not helping people,” Heyer told PVSS.

Bauwens also noted that, according to federal election data, “92% to 96% of research psychologists and social workers” have “given to a liberal Democrat candidate” for office.

The most profound damage of the transgender industry comes in the mind- and soul-altering message of gender fluidity, which wars with the biblical view that God created us male and female, Heyer contended. “When we introduce a child or an individual to the idea that they can change genders, we devalue who they are in Christ,” he said.
