In this video, Helen Joyce, an author, journalist, and campaigner, reacts to a book titled “The Transgender Child.” This book is written by clinicians supporting transgender and non-binary children and includes various quotes from parents. Joyce provides her thoughts on these quotes, often expressing concern about the implications of the parents’ attitudes and actions towards their children’s gender identity.
She questions the wisdom of making irreversible decisions based on the beliefs and desires of very young children and criticizes the role of parents who rely too heavily on their children for guidance on these complex issues.
I have two children myself both are boys….the younger one was a train between age two and four and I am not exaggerating that child was a train. He was a purple train specifically and he called his body parts train parts like not all the time he also knew he was a boy but it was an immersive fiction of the sort that I’ve since met other parents whose children were horses they were dinosaurs they were a lot of trains.
A World Economic Forum lead adviser foresees the future. At the end Harari predicts that we will “upgrade Homo sapiens into gods.”
Along with Transgenderism, Transhumanism is profoundly dehumanizing. Humans are by definition embodied souls. God gave us bodies because we were meant to have them. To reach for more is the original temptation.
Roman Catholic Bishop Kevin C. Rhoades expressed significant concerns about the change in admission policy at Saint Mary’s College, a Catholic women’s college, which now considers for admission not only applicants whose sex is female but also those who consistently live and identify as women.
In a recent statement the Bishop emphasized that this shift departs from fundamental Catholic teaching on the nature of womanhood and compromises the college’s identity as a Catholic institution. He pointed out that the ideology affirming gender as a subjective experience separate from biological sex contradicts Catholic teaching, which sees the unity of body and soul and recognizes sexual identity as an innate aspect of one’s nature created by God.
Bishop Rhoades highlighted Pope Francis’ teachings, which emphasize the inseparability of biological sex and socio-cultural gender roles, cautioning against ideologies that try to separate these aspects of reality. He stressed that truth and love must go hand in hand, expressing concern that the new policy might prioritize an inclusive environment over adherence to Catholic doctrine. He called on Saint Mary’s College to uphold its Catholic identity and mission by rejecting gender ideologies that contradict the Church’s teachings on the human person, sex, and gender. This includes recognizing and respecting every individual’s dignity as created in the image of God, while not affirming views of sexual identity that diverge from Catholic understanding.
Our Christian Identity is grounded in both Truth and Love.
Pope Francis teaches about the intimate connection between truth and love in his first encyclical, Lumen Fidei (The Light of Faith). He writes:
“Love requires truth. Only to the extent that love is grounded in truth can it endure over time, can it transcend the passing moment and be sufficiently solid to sustain a shared journey. If love is not tied to truth, it falls prey to fickle emotions and cannot stand the test of time. True love, on the other hand, unifies all the elements of our person and becomes a new light pointing the way to a great and fulfilled life” (#27).
