Boundary Violations Are NOT Christian

Christians may not agree with everything they hear in the YouTube video below, but we surely mustn’t deny bodily reality.

God doesn’t.

God created us as embodied beings, with limits. God became an embodied being, as the Second Person of the Trinity. God was raised and ascended to heaven as an embodied being. God will return as an embodied being. At which time God will put the bi-natured creation back in order. Which is to say, God will remarry heaven and earth, invisible with visible, soul with body, in an imperishable eschatological embrace.

Then the loving limit placed upon the Second Person of the Trinity, for the world’s sake, will end.

1 Cor 15:24-28 NRSV

Then comes the end, when he hands over the kingdom to God the Father, after he has destroyed every ruler and every authority and power. 25 For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet. 26 The last enemy to be destroyed is death. 27 For “God has put all things in subjection under his feet.” But when it says, “All things are put in subjection,” it is plain that this does not include the one who put all things in subjection under him. 28 When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to the one who put all things in subjection under him, so that God may be all in all.

Zechariah 14:8-9 NRSV

On that day living waters shall flow out from Jerusalem, half of them to the eastern sea and half of them to the western sea; it shall continue in summer as in winter. 9 And YAHWEH will become king over all the earth; on that day YAHWEH will be one and his name one.

We dare not forget all of that. And the LOVING LIMITS God placed on each of us. If we ever learned it.

We must always tell what we see. Above all, and this is more difficult, we must always see what we see.

NY City Venue Cancelled Her For Saying Sex is Real

The indefatigable Mary Harrington was just cancelled in New York City for defending reality. A book show for the US launch of her book Feminism Against Progress was scheduled for April 26.

“The contract was signed, the deposit was sent. But then something happened: The venue—which bills itself as “inclusive”—got critical comments on social media, and suddenly called it off.”

You can read what Harrington has to say about it here.

Excerpt:

…there is a difference between a commitment to ideas and a commitment to ideology. Pursuing the truth isn’t the same as refusing to notice anything that doesn’t fit your vision. Sometimes ideas and ideology are hard to tell apart, however. I have tremendous sympathy for the young people duped by gender ideology into self-mutilation. I dare say those who now seek to silence the quiet reminder, from a middle-aged mother, that biology still exists, sincerely believe they are making the world a better place.

But just because you find a viewpoint sympathetic doesn’t mean it’s true. Humans still can’t change sex. Even in New York City, embodied sex still matters. Deep down, fast-talking, freewheeling, street-smart, and book-smart New York still knows this. The show will go on. Somehow, somewhere we will hold the book launch. In the face of powerful resistance, we will defend reality.

JK Rowling: “One Of The Worst Medical Scandals In A Century”

JK Rowling has said that society’s openness to allowing young children to change gender represents “one of the worst medical scandals in a century”.

Rowling, 57, called for those responsible for helping children to transition to “follow the science” and said that virtually all studies showed the majority of individuals suffering from gender dysmorphia would grow out of it as they matured.

“If that’s the evidence, then why are we immediately putting children on a path to affirmative action,” she said.

“We are watching one of the worst medical scandals in a century. Those that should have known better — the medics and those who have unquestionably cheered this on — are creating a climate in which those trying to raise red flags have been intimidated and silenced.”

Rowling, who wrote the Harry Potter novels, said that the percentage of young women seeking to change gender had increased dramatically. “Should we not be asking why that is happening?” she said.
