PARENTS FORCE QUEENSLAND EDUCATION DEP’T TO QUIT TRANS ADVOCACY GROUP

In August 2026, the Queensland Department of Education was forced to resign its membership of prime transgender advocacy group, ACON after a parent petition raised nearly 1,000 signatories in a few days. The Declaration of Biological Truth (DOBT) fostered the petition, but the Queensland parents forced the change. Other transgender advocacy groups are Transcend, Minus18, Transhub, Working it Out and Shine SA.

On signing up and paying their fee to an organisation like ACON, Education Departments are obliged to follow certain guidelines. They must engage in and promote gender and LGBTQA celebration days like Wear it Purple and IDAHOBIT (International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia). We’re not talking besuited officials in tall buildings having a party with rainbow cakes and tea; we’re talking school-based celebrations, sometimes lasting a full day. Another guideline states the Department must offer Transgender Support to staff. This includes ‘… paid leave frameworks supporting employees undergoing gender affirmation’.

Why haven’t parents rallied against these alliances and the ideological concepts they bring to taxpayer-funded schools? It’s simple. They haven’t known about it. At no time have Education authorities notified parents of their alliances and what it means for their children’s education. The ‘transparency’ word is unknown to Australian Education.

ACON also has transparency issues. Organisations can be financial members of ‘Pride in Diversity’ and be ‘undisclosed’. Nothing to see here!!! The most recent research undertaken by the DOBT (Declaration of Biological Truth) found 91% of parents did not know there was any education alliance with trans or LGBTQA groups. A vast majority said they’d be unhappy if there was. Only 13% said they’d be happy with it. When 87% of the people you are meant to serve object to such an alliance, it’s no wonder parents are kept in the dark. The bottom line is that 85.6% of parents believe gender and LGBTQA education does NOT belong in schools. The message is clear

Queensland parents made their voices heard and won. All states will have a petition open to parents by the beginning of next year. A NSW petition is already open to force NSW Education to quit its alliance with ACON. Revealingly, Murat Dizdar, the CEO of NSW Education, won ACON’s CEO of the year in 2025. A cosy relationship indeed.

The good news is that Biblical prophecy reveals clearly that we are in the last days prior to Jesus return to restore righteousness. Next on God’s agenda for planet Earth is Jesus Millennial Kingdom. Please go to http://www.millennialkingdom.net to get prepared to rule and reign with Jesus and the glorified Saints.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A TRANSGENDER PERSON

This article by Walt Heyer, co-author of a new book “Embracing God’s design” will have a major impact on transgenderism.

A landmark malpractice verdict exposes the harms of so-called “gender-affirming care”, vindicating a young woman’s justice and accelerating accountability for doctors who medically harm vulnerable children.

The insanity of cutting off the breasts of teenage girls in the name of “transgenderism” has finally been vindicated.

A White Plains, NY, jury held a psychologist and a surgeon liable for medical malpractice for removing the healthy breasts of Fox Varian, then a 16-year-old girl, and awarded her $2 million in total damages — $1.6 million for pain and suffering and $400,000 for future medical expenses.

Congratulations to her and her attorney, Adam Deutsch, and thanks to the jury for getting it right.

Ms Varian’s justice arrived at 22 years of age, and she, like me (Walt Heyer), is no longer identifying as “transgender”.

This legal victory marks a pivotal moment for what Elon Musk predicts “will be thousands of court cases of children who were mutilated by evil doctors, modern-day Mengeles.” Psychologists and surgeons who affirm young people in counterfeit identities and facilitate medical interventions deserve to be held accountable.

This insane madness euphemistically called “gender-affirming care” — stopping natural puberty, administering cross-sex hormones, and removing the breasts of females or the genitalia of males — in my view and life experience, is medical malpractice. Surgeries like mine 40 years ago were wrong then and are wrong now.

In Finland, Dr Riittakerttu Kaltiala, chief adolescent psychiatrist at Finland’s Tampere University Hospital, studied the outcomes of “gender-affirming care” provided for minors there and said, based on the scientific evidence, “gender-affirming care” for minors is dangerous and provides no benefit.

Trauma at the Root

In Embracing God’s Design, co-authored with Jennifer Bauwens, PhD, we lay out the role trauma plays in the lives of people who adopt a transgender identity. Ms Varian’s catalogue of traumas is dramatic in its number:

“Her parents separated when Varian was seven, and a three-year custody battle left her estranged from her father. Varian suffered from depression, anxiety, social phobia, an eating disorder, and body-image issues. She was also diagnosed with autism and transferred schools frequently.”

The gender clinics’ therapists and surgeons do not want to acknowledge the underlying disorders and traumas that are responsible for the person’s disordered thoughts and behaviours.

My childhood experience is remarkably similar in many ways to Ms Varian’s — childhood traumas, rush to surgery, ineffective and harmful procedures.

It Happened to Me

My grandmother started cross-dressing me in secret and affirming how good I looked as a girl, starting at age 4. Two years later, when my father found out what his mother-in-law was doing to his boy, he thought using physical discipline to the point of welts and bruises would “man” me up. Another family member sexually abused me. All of this happened before I was 10.

Walt Heyer and cross-dressing as Laura

At age 40ish, after decades of cross-dressing, I was convinced that I needed cross-sex hormones. I sought the advice of the premier gender specialist at the time, Dr Paul Walker, about my ever-present mental confusion. I told him about the abuse I suffered as a child, but his response was that it didn’t matter. After a couple of visits, Walker diagnosed me with “gender dysphoria” and advised me to take the next step in treatment, called “sex change” surgery.

I had the surgery and lived in a female identity for eight years. From that crazy experience, I learned some important truths. Gender/sex remains fixed and innate from the moment of conception. I didn’t “transition” from man to woman. Hormones and surgery are feckless in changing who God made a person to be. The offensive truth is that there is no such thing as a “transgender” person or even a “detransitioner.” When I wanted to reclaim my male identity, I didn’t need to “detransition” because I had never stopped being a man.

Starting with my first published articles in 2015, I have advocated for protecting children from the reckless diagnosis of “gender dysphoria,” a diagnosis that fast tracks access to hormone therapy and unnecessary surgery.

What we need now is a “fast track” for medical malpractice cases to slow down, even stop, the insane madness of surgical interventions on physically healthy children. My hope is to see an end to psychologists and surgeons subjecting children to experimentation, and that those who have been harmed receive similar judgments.

Consider getting the book Embracing God’s Design, a remarkable one-of-a-kind resource to educate church leaders and families on the topic of transgenderism, and availing yourself of the accompanying free teaching videos.

AUSTRALIAN BROADCASTERS PROMOTE FALSE TRANSGENDER NARRATIVE

Parents share their first-hand accounts of media bias and the devastating impact of transgender ideology on Australian families — and how our national broadcasters are silencing dissenting voices.

Our national broadcasters are in cahoots with political elites who insist on promoting a false narrative about transgender ideology. They are all flailing, trying to silence and censor those of us who refuse to bow the knee to their lies. This isn’t a grey area or a matter of opinion.

No human can change sex. No human ever has. No human ever will.

It is immensely cruel to lie to a child and come to an agreement with the deception that they were born in the wrong body. Their body has their sex written on every cell, on their skeletal frame, in their reproductive system, their hormonal system and many other parts of their body.

The Lie That Harms Children

Children can and do suffer gender distress, but reinforcing a lie or delusion is not kind; it is terribly cruel. Imagine affirming anorexia or depression; it is unheard of.

Beginning with a lie always results in a messy ending. These children suffer in their bodies when chemical castration drugs and cross-sex hormones are issued without their ability to consent or understand the ramifications.

Families have been torn apart because good parents say no, but the government steps in and rips the child from the only unit that exists to truly care for and protect them. It ought to anger us no end.

Every Australian needs to understand the precedent this sets for all areas of social and public policy. If the government, supported by the judiciary and media, can promote and legislate such basic fundamental lies that fly in the face of evidence-based science and reality, what else do you think they will do?

SBS’s One-Sided Narrative

SBS is a major news outlet promoting the false trans narrative to the detriment of young people and Australian families.

They write and film puff pieces insisting humans can change sex when they can’t, and select examples of young people supposedly thriving since undergoing extremely harmful drug regimes.

They neglect to report on the terrible side effects, such as incontinence, infertility, brain and bone development issues and a myriad of other serious health impacts.

I don’t want to give them too much oxygen since the entire trans narrative is built on the lie that a child was born in the wrong body and must undergo very harmful treatments to pretend to be the opposite sex. What I do want to do is give parents who have endured complete devastation a voice to tell you exactly how harmful and devastating the promotion of this lie is.

Recently, SBS filmed a program about gender access to care and published an article. It is completely biased, and despite speaking with parents, they decided to exclude them from the story. Two of those parents are featured in Kirralie Smith’s book Devastated: How gender ideology is tearing Australian families apart.

Judith Hunter and Tess Hackett took to social media to describe their interactions with SBS. They are printed in full below. I will let them speak for themselves.

“Months ago Judith Hunter and I were approached by an SBS journalist who wanted to talk to parents who’d been to a gender clinic with their child. 

We spent a great deal of time connecting him with people who are involved with what’s happening in Australia re gender including my good friend Kevin, who transitioned many years ago as an adult and is now very critical. 

After months of discussion, trying to educate him etc., he eventually asked if I’d be willing to go on the show. I said yes, until he said he needed to speak to my daughter (estranged and mentally unwell now) to confirm my story despite having a stack of evidence from the gender clinic to confirm every part of my story. I told him absolutely not. 

He also didn’t want Jude Hunter. 

Come filming day, Jude was not even allowed to be in the audience; the journalist stated she was too recognisable, but her lovely (now) adult son was. 

The feedback from Kevin and Jude’s son was that it was a complete waste of time and biased towards pro transitioning. Kevin and psychologist (Vanessa?) who is also gender-critical were given barely any time to speak, and the host was hostile.”

Last year I was contacted by an SBS Insight producer, who was keen to include me on the upcoming episode they were planning on doing on “Trans”. He’d read about my work with Genspect & supporting other parents who didn’t agree with medicalising identity. We had a long conversation & I also put him in touch with my friend Tess Hackett , who runs a support group for parents who question medicalising their child’s “gender identity “. Tess also spoke to the producer at length. We put him in touch with other parents & whistleblower doctors who have spoken out about the harms of “gender medicine”. In the end he did an about face & didn’t want us on the show. I wasn’t even allowed to be seen in the audience. As a consolation he agreed for Rory to be in the audience. Rory came out of the recording & said “It was so one sided”. There were 7 people in the audience (speakers) who were on the trans positive side & only 2 on the side of caution & questioning.

The ads have been one sided, and now this piece of garbage writeup about the show. 

The article mentions that under 18s can’t get access to hormones in Australia without parental consent which is also absolute garbage as outlined in recent gender clinic review of QLD gender clinic where children as young as 12 were placed on puberty blockers without parental consent.

SBS are a complete waste of time (like ABC). There’s no balance here. Just a propaganda piece.”

Article by Kirralie Smith. She is the director of Binary, an organisation that fights the de-gendering of Australian society and celebrates the true diversity of men and women. She is a courageous Christian voice on issues of family and gender.

This is a major end times sign along with the great falling away in the church (apostasy) that goes along with homosexuality, even homosexual priests and bishops, gay marriage and transgenderism. We are fast approaching the final seven years prior to Jesus return to restore righteousness and set up His Millennial Kingdom.

AUSTRALIAN MEDICAL REGULATORS STILL SIDING WITH GENDER CLINICS

Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) silences psychiatrist Dr Andrew Amos for challenging child ‘Gender Medicine’. Dr Andrew Amos has been banned from publicly discussing gender issues on social media and barred from direct clinical contact, following multiple complaints from trans activists.

AHPRA Silences Psychiatrist Dr Andrew Amos for Challenging Child ‘Gender Medicine’

Australia’s health regulator has banned a prominent psychiatrist from publicly questioning child gender treatments, AHPRA and the Medical Board of Australia ordered Dr Amos to stop making online statements about gender issues and is barred from direct clinical contact with patients. The conditions were imposed in response to four complaints lodged by trans activists, according to reports by The Australian.

He is also restricted from practising unless he is at an “approved location,” and has been barred from any role involving “direct or indirect” clinical patient contact. AHPRA invoked its “immediate action” power, which it can use when it “forms a reasonable belief there may be a serious risk to people.” Under the provision, the board does not need to establish all facts, and a full investigation may take up to two years.

AHPRA declined to answer questions from The Australian about why conditions were imposed. Separately, the regulator issued a statement saying it “respect[s] practitioners’ freedom of expression… provided it does not involve abuse, discrimination, or pose a risk to public safety.”

A Chilling Effect on Medical Debate

Dr Amos has published peer-reviewed work questioning whether the child “gender medicine” model meets core psychiatric standards.

His concerns align with the findings of the 2024 UK Cass Review, which found the evidence base for puberty-suppressing drugs and cross-sex hormones in minors to be weak, and subsequently prompted major policy shifts across parts of Europe.

Lyle Shelton, leader of Family First Party pointed to a sharp contrast in how AHPRA has treated competing expert voices.

In the recent Family Court case Re Devin (2025), Justice Andrew Strum found that expert evidence provided by prominent gender clinic doctor Michelle Telfer was “misleading” rather than objective. Complaints in that matter reportedly resulted in no meaningful regulatory action.

“At the same time as a court criticises evidence given in support of child gender treatments, AHPRA moves against a psychiatrist who questions the evidence base,” Shelton said. “Australians are entitled to ask why.”

Queensland psychiatrist Dr Jillian Spencer, suspended from Queensland Health since 2024 after questioning child “gender medicine” at the Queensland Children’s Hospital, told The Australian she feared becoming AHPRA’s next target.

“I’m very anxious that I’ll be next,” Spencer said. “I’ve managed to keep my registration so far, but I don’t know how long I’ve got left.”

‘No Capacity to Debate’

Spencer described a profession-wide silencing that predates any formal regulatory action. Journal articles critical of child gender treatments are blocked by activist reviewers, she explained. Dissenters are refused speaking platforms at conferences, while internal professional debate has, in her account, ceased.

“Within our profession, there has been absolute suppression of any capacity to debate the issue in medical professional forums,” Spencer said. “And people say to us, this is a really sensitive and important debate, it shouldn’t happen on social media or in the media. But what they’re ignoring is that we have no capacity to have the discussion within our profession.”

Spencer has written an open letter she hopes colleagues will sign, but expressed concern that AHPRA’s action will prompt others to stay silent. “I’m a bit scared that all my colleagues will run for cover,” she said.

Queensland’s own LNP Government has suspended the initiation of puberty-suppressing drugs and cross-sex hormones for minors — the same concerns for which Dr Amos now faces professional restrictions.

Family First is calling for the immediate lifting of conditions on Dr Amos, a transparent review of regulatory decisions in light of the Re Devin findings, and a national pause on experimental child gender treatments pending a full independent inquiry.

This nation has effectively banished God from its existence and will suffer the consequences particularly on Jesus imminent return.

From His mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. On his robe and on his thigh he has a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords.Revelation !9:15-16

When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.Matthew 25:31-32

APOSTASY: LIBERAL PROTESTANT CHURCHES PROCLAIM ‘HOLINESS’ OF TRANSGENDERISM

Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) President, the Rev. Dr. Sofía Betancourt, is joining nine other heads of diverse religious traditions in issuing a landmark statement proclaiming that transgender, intersex, and nonbinary people are “holy and whole“, worthy of love, support, and protection.

The statement is also signed by Barry Crossno, General Secretary of the Friends General Conference; The Rev. Elder Cecilia Eggleston, Moderator of Universal Fellowship of Metropolitan Community Churches (MCC); Presiding Prelate Yvette A. Flunder of The Fellowship of Affirming Ministries (TFAM); Rabbi Rick Jacobs, President of Union for Reform Judaism; The Rev. Jihyun Oh, Stated Clerk and Executive Director of Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.); The Rev. Teresa “Terri” Hord Owens, General Minister and President of Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in the United States and Canada; The Rev. Dr. Karen Georgia Thompson, General Minister and President/CEO of the United Church of Christ (UCC); Rabbi Deborah Waxman, Ph.D., President and CEO of Reconstructing Judaism; and The Episcopal Church. It also includes additional information from signers explaining the basis of support from their traditions.

“During a time when our country is placing their lives under increasingly serious threat, there is a disgraceful misconception that all people of faith do not affirm the full spectrum of gender – a great many of us do. Let it be known instead that our beloveds are created in the image of God – Holy and whole,” says the statement, which is directed to the American public, political leaders, and moral teachers.

Mind you they don’t believe in the inerrancy of Scripture and that God made two genders, male and female, and that family consists of a male joining with a female for life (become one flesh) to produce children which they care for and raise to adulthood.

The statement dated November 12th, 2025 acknowledges that while the signers may come from different religious traditions, they share a common concern in protecting those experiencing persecution. “Our scriptures vary, but they share a common conviction. As we make justice our aim we must give voice to those who are silenced. Our shared values, held across many faiths, teach us that we are all children of God and that we must cultivate a discipline of hope, especially in difficult times. As such, we raise our voices in solidarity to unequivocally proclaim the holiness of transgender, nonbinary, and intersex people, as well as the recognition of the entire spectrum of gender identity and expression,” the statement says..

A major end times sign is apostasy in the church. Never before has God’s church rejected His Word as many denominations have today. We are fast approaching Jesus second coming which is a time of tribulation which escalates into great tribulation prior to the rapture of the church and the outpouring of God’s wrath at the trumpet blast at the opening of the seventh seal. It is at the sixth seal that we see the celestial signs that precede the rapture and the outpouring of God’s wrath upon an unrepentant world.

And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, … For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?Revelation 6:12, 17

Next on God’s agenda for planet Earth is Jesus Millennial Kingdom. Are you preparing for serving with Jesus during this transition time when Jesus and the Saints rule with a rod of iron?

GENDER IDEOLOGY: THE WORST MEDICAL SCANDAL IN AUSTRALIA’S HISTORY

Article by Kirralie Smith: Republished with thanks to Binary.

Australian media and a small handful of politicians are finally shedding light on the appalling consequences of self-identification laws and gender ideology.

Binary has been at the coalface for the better part of a decade sounding the alarm. It has played a crucial role in the fact that some are finally starting to take note.

Anna Cody, the Sex Discrimination Commissioner, was embarrassed at Senate Estimates for not being able to define sex, one of the words in her own portfolio.

Senator Claire Chandler and Senator Malcolm Roberts did a great job of exposing her nonsensical responses.

Harm to Women and Children

The Australian and Sky News have picked up on the fact that violent male criminals are being housed in female prisons. The Chief Minister of the Northern Territory has even stated on the record that there will be no males in female prisons on her watch.

The Victorian education department has been exposed by Moira Deeming MP again for socially transitioning students without parental knowledge or consent.

Binary campaigned on this issue in the lead-up to the 2022 Victorian state election. Three long years ago, we warned that the policy was there and would be taken advantage of.

We were ridiculed and ‘fact checked’ by the ABC, which deceived readers into thinking we made it up and yet we literally took the statement directly from the government website.

Unfortunately, thousands of children have now suffered the consequences of gender ideology in their schools, and countless parents have had their rights undermined by a system that cares more about progressing a dangerous ideology than the wellbeing of children.

Irreversible Damage

Children who are socially transitioned usually go on to take extremely harmful drugs such as puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones.

These drugs render them sterile, without sexual function, incontinent, with high cholesterol, and bone density issues, along with other terrible side effects.

Politicians and the media are responsible for one of the worst medical scandals in Australia’s history. They have shrunk back, minimised, deceived and outright lied about the harm this dreadful ideology has inflicted on a generation of vulnerable young people.

It is encouraging that some are now stepping into the light. It is deeply shameful that so many still refuse to safeguard women and children.

Never underestimate the role you can play in sharing information and challenging the deceptive narrative. Make sure you share this post widely.

EXPERTS LINK SEXUAL REVOLUTION WITH GENDER CHAOS

Canadian journalist Jonathon Van Maren, host of “The Jonathon Van Maren Show,” contended that the roots of transgender ideology can be traced directly to the sexual revolution, as does “Generation Indoctrination,” host Brandon Showalter. “If you spend any time in the land of gender confusion, there’s a common question you’ll hear asked among bewildered people: how on Earth did we get here?” Showalter says in the episode, “From ‘Free Love’ to Gender Chaos: Tracing the Road from the Sexual Revolution to Today.” 

“The sexual revolution was a revolution. It was the tearing down of all boundaries surrounding what is sex, what is procreation, what is family,” Van Maren said. “It was to a degree inevitable that eventually they would begin to redefine the very concept of self.” Van Maren called the movement “the bloodiest revolution in all of human history,” pointing to the legalization of abortion across the West in the years that followed. Unlike abortion’s “silent and unseen victims,” he said, the victims of trans ideology are living and speaking out. “The barbarism perpetrated against the bodies of these primarily young people can be witnessed by all,” he adds.

Jennifer Roback Morse, president of the Ruth Institute and author of The Sexual State, stressed that contradictions within the revolution are inevitable. “We’re at war with male and female. We’re at war with the human body,” Morse said. “As long as we’re at war with that, we’re going to be creating one bit of craziness after another.”

Nathanael Blake, a fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center and author of Victims of the Revolution: How Sexual Liberation Hurts Us All, said the revolution promised freedom but ultimately undermined the meaning of male and female.

“The Sexual Revolution promised that if we pursued pleasure and disregarded commitments and obligations, we would be freer, more authentic and happy,” Blake said. “But instead, if you say there’s no meaning to sex other than what you feel about it, that necessarily means male and female don’t matter.” He noted that same-sex marriage was quickly followed by a cultural pivot to transgender activism, a logical outgrowth of the claim that biological sex is irrelevant.

Looking to the future, Blake warned that if the revolution continues unchecked, even darker outcomes could follow. “We could certainly see a push towards paedophilia,” he said, noting that such movements had intellectual support in the 1970s. “I hope we’ve reached a point where this evil of transgenderism will recede … but we need to be faithful, and then we need to trust and hope that God will deliver us from evil.”

It is good to know from Biblical end times prophecies that Jesus return is near and He will deliver us from evil and restore righteousness. Sadly, the following verse is true of many that practice and promote this unrighteousness.

Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 2 Thessalonians 2:11-12

THE BATTLE WAGES FOR THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF AMERICANS

Worcester, located about 35 miles west of Boston, is the second-biggest city by population in the state, with just over 200,000 residents. The City Council passed a resolution, titled “Sanctuary City for Transgender and Gender Diverse People“. It prevents the city from cooperating with federal or state policies deemed harmful to trans-identified individuals and ensures access to healthcare, housing, education and employment without discrimination.

While critics have argued the resolution defies federal law and fails to protect youth, approximately 200 people, activists and residents, showed up for the council meeting to support the resolution, many of them speaking out — some even singing — during the five-hour public meeting. 

Among those who spoke out in favor of the resolution was Julie Payne-Britton, a pastor at the Hadwen Park Congregational Church, which is affiliated with the progressive United Church of Christ. Payne-Britton, who identifies as a disabled, cisgender lesbian, sported a clerical collar as she told council members that if Jesus were at the meeting, He would be “dressed in full drag.”

“The Jesus I know would be dressed in full drag and serving face, or handsome as a trans man, or wrapped in the garb of a non-binary person who knows one gender is way too small to capture their gloriousness,” Payne-Britton claimed. “The Jesus I know would be at this mic with a trembling voice and a shaking body and tears that will not be held back crying, ‘make this city safe for my child.’”

Another speaker, a blue-haired, white-gloved man in drag who identified as “Dee Dee Delight” spoke about being “afraid” of President Donald Trump’s executive order requiring federal agencies to recognize only two sexes — male and female — and a second order prohibiting trans medical operations for anyone younger than 19.

“I need the city to protect me because the federal government won’t. And if you think you’re afraid of Trump, you should see how afraid of Trump I am,” the speaker said. 

After identifying as “multiply disabled,” the speaker, standing in front of a sign that read “Silence = death,” issued what appeared to be a threat against the council.

“If you say you’re afraid of Trump and that’s why you don’t want the city to be a safe space for [trans] people, you better prepare for [trans] people to make this a very unsafe space,” said the person.

A short time later, a black female activist warned the council about “strong, queer” transgender-identified people who “will collect you with the quickness.” 

Another activist wearing a wig screamed at the city council, “How many of my friends have to die before you do anything?”

The City of Worcester has folded to the increasingly threatening demands of LBTQ proponents. The battle is escalating. Fortunately, we know how the story ends, Jesus returns to put things right.

THE TRUTH OF BISHOP BUDDE’S SERMON TO TRUMP

Kaeley Harms, an adult survivor of childhood sexual abuse, has a visceral response to emotional manipulation. This is her response to Bishop Budde’s sermon to President Trump.

One needs only spend a few minutes familiarizing oneself with the entire body of Bishop Budde’s work to realise that what she was really asking for is not mercy but capitulation.  She wasn’t asking Trump to use softer words.  She was asking him to pump the brakes on necessary policy changes that would protect the greater good.

Jesus loves people. He loves you. He loves me. He loves illegal immigrants. He loves kids who are confused about their gender. His heart is merciful toward us. But loving every person does not mean He loves every idea or every action. Mercy doesn’t look like capitulating to ideologies that lead to harm. Mercy looks like intervening to stop the harm from happening, and it’s precisely that intervention that Bishop Budde was standing staunchly against in her speech. She framed the whole thing as love, of course, but the brand of love she was peddling wasn’t love at all, and that’s why it vexes me.

You should be able to step foot in a Christian church and find that the leaders are pointing you toward Jesus and the truth that can save.

Jesus says, “Come as you are,” not “Stay as you are.”  Faithful Christian leaders lovingly encourage their congregants to surrender their sins to Jesus and allow Him to transform them from the inside out. To be a Christian is to be willing to change. It means your identity is in Him, not your sexual preferences or rebellion against the material reality of your sex. But false leaders like Bishop Budde encounter this necessary shepherding and shout, “Have mercy! Don’t tell people they need to change! That’s hateful.” And in so doing, they circumvent the very repentance that could bring the healing we all claim to desire.

Budde’s speech perpetuated both the myth of the “transgender child” and the histrionic belief that children will die if we don’t indulge their delusion about their bodies. There’s no such thing as a transgender child. Mercy and compassion for kids who are confused about their sex looks like lovingly helping them make peace with the immutable nature of it. It does NOT look like forcing the rest of society to play make-believe with the cult ideology that’s harming them. The price tag here is just too high. Kids are not dying because we refuse to tell them lies about their bodies. The suggestion is preposterous and harmful.

Conservative political commentator Mark Steyn blasted Episcopal Bishop Mariann Budde as “a tool of Satan” for pushing the idea of “transgender children” from the pulpit of the National Cathedral during her recent rebuke of President Donald Trump. There’s no such thing as a transgender kid,” Steyn said. “Some may think there is, and a confused 8-year-old boy or 11-year-old girl may think there is. But what it boils down to is you, the bishop, supporting slicing off the breasts of middle school girls. That makes you, the bishop, a tool of Satan. So you should be on a roasting spit in Hell for promoting that.”

Sadly, until very recently, the transgender movement has had all the institutional power. All of it. They’ve had a death grip on the entirety of mainstream media, big tech, big pharma, the medical industrial complex, academia, Hollywood elite, and, increasingly, of the now largely apostate church.

They have not been “powerless.”  Women have been powerless to stop them. How do you think female inmates raped by men in their prison cells feel when people who claim to be abuse survivor advocates defend their rapists in the name of God?

What does “mercy” look like to a physically castrated young man like Ritchie Herron who will never be a father because people like Bishop Budde encouraged the cult belief that they could be born in the wrong body? What does “mercy” look like to grieving parents whose children have committed suicide after the medical intervention experts promised what would make them happy failed to deliver?

I’m focused heavily on the trans element of Budde’s speech for obvious reasons: it’s been my soapbox for the past 10 years.  I’m so inundated with the stories of harm perpetrated by the gender cult that it keeps me up at night. 

GOOD NEWS: PUBERTY BLOCKERS BANNED INDEFINITELY BY THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT

The British government indefinitely banned puberty blockers as a treatment for minors with gender dysphoria on Wednesday. After embracing gender transition procedures for minors before the U.S., European countries like the U.K. are now reversing course as evidence of the harm they could cause has mounted. “We need to act with caution and care when it comes to this vulnerable group of young people, and follow the expert advice,” declared Health Secretary Wes Streeting.

The U.K. temporarily paused puberty blockers for children in March 2023, following the release of the Cass report, a credible, detailed examination that found insufficient evidence that gender transition procedures were safe for children. The Commission on Human Medicines, an independent organization of the British government, also recently found “an unacceptable safety risk in the continued prescription of puberty blockers to children.”

The government, then controlled by the Conservative Party, further restricted access to puberty blockers with an emergency ban passed in June. The high court upheld that ban as lawful in July. In August, after an electoral victory, the left-leaning Labour Party extended the emergency ban in August. This move invested both of the U.K.’s major political parties in the newly cautious approach toward gender transition procedures for minors.

On Wednesday, the Labour government announced new legislation that would make the ban indefinite, to be reviewed in 2027. The ban would also take effect in Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
