The News I Didn’t Write About Yesterday REPRINT

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

From  March 31, 2016

I suppose stuff like this is only to be expected in an age when Real Smart People with advanced degrees argue, with a straight face, that it’s rational and praiseworthy to become disabled on purpose ( http://leeduigon.com/2015/06/23/an-all-new-perversion-become-disabled-on-purpose/ ). They advance very smart-sounding–but utterly vacuous–intellectual “reasons” for having sound, healthy limbs amputated.

Even so, when I read yesterday that the National Basketball Assn. has joined the National Football League in threatening the state of North Carolina that the state will lose major sporting events unless its legislators restore the “right”–really: the right?–of a grown man to enter a girls’ bathroom with girls in it, I could not continue. That our country could have ever come to this…

Because North Carolina does not accept that a man has a “right” to use the ladies’ bathroom, the whole American ruling class is coming down on the state like a ton of bricks. New York City and state, Vermont, and San Francisco mayors and governors have banned official travel to North Carolina. Chambers of commerce, huge corporations, and other business entities have threatened to pull out of North Carolina unless this “right” is restored.

Oh, well, it’s only public rest rooms, is that the hill to die on?

The retreat of decency (not to mention sanity!) has got to stop somewhere.

I join with those readers who have cited Acts 4:29.

And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word…

Big sports, big business, big politics–in the name of the most holy God, we defy you.

Sacraments of Humanism: Sex Education REPRINT

From April 19, 2017Image result for images of sex education

We wonder why public school “educators” are always so hot to trot for sex education–and the younger the children in the classroom, the more eagerly the educators swing into action. In Britain, as reported earlier today, they now want to go after two-year-olds. (https://leeduigon.com/2017/04/19/uk-teachers-vote-sex-ed-for-2-year-olds/)

It’s because what they like to call “sex education” is a sacrament of a false religion, secular humanism. The other humanist sacraments are sodomy, transgenderism, abortion, and assisted suicide.

Another big question is why parents, even Christian parents, continue to allow believers in that false religion to educate their children, day in, day out, and year after year.

Rather large  books can be, and have been, written on this subject. This is only a blog post. It’s my way of urging parents and families to stop subjecting their children to public education.

Years ago, I worked most days as a substitute teacher at a public high school, called in to teach any and all subjects with only one exception–sex education. No substitute was ever called in for that. If the teacher was absent, an assistant principal had to supervise the class.

To keep parents from ever knowing exactly what was being taught, the textbooks were never allowed to be taken out of the classroom. Students complained that this made it hard for them to study for tests and quizzes, but that was the policy and the administration was not about to change it.

A student or a teacher in a public school can fall into a world of trouble by openly expressing any kind of faithfulness to Christian teaching. “You can be a boy one day and a girl the next, depending on how you feel.” This is, increasingly, what is being taught.

The Coalition of African-American Pastors, just to name one of many groups of concerned citizens and Christians, has warned that this kind of indoctrination is not going to go away, it is going to be made more intense as time goes by, and if we leave it alone and do nothing to stop it, our society will be severely damaged by it.

They couldn’t be more right. (http://caapusa.org/2017/04/beware-those-who-have-their-heads-in-the-sand-over-transgender-issues/ )

War Against Reality: the ‘Trans’ Movement in China REPRINT

Who cares if they bulldoze churches, as long as their minds are right about “transgender”?

From May 10, 2019

None of the international whoopee crowd seems to mind that Red China bulldozes churches and herds Muslim Uighurs into concentration camps; but Amnesty International is singin’ the blues about China and “transgender.”

“China is failing transgender people!” (https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7014125/Transgender-people-China-classified-mentally-ill-forced-perform-self-surgery-Study.html)

Just because truth ought to be heard now and then, let us state that there is no such thing as “transgender people.” There are only seriously disturbed individuals who say they are “transgender”. China hasn’t rolled out the red carpet for them. That they can get “gender reassignment” in China under special circumstances tells us that even the Chicoms aren’t completely immune to this craze.

“One trans woman–” correction: that’s a man who thinks he is a woman, he suffers from a delusion–“nearly died after trying to remove her [sic> should be “his”] male genitals at home,” wails Amnesty. Uh, the fact that he, like, had male genitals is incontrovertible proof that he is not any kind of “woman,” but a man.

Oh, no! They’re turning to the black market for sex-change surgery!

Does anybody here see an eerie resemblance to the abortion movement in the west? All those grim tales of  back-alley abortions with coat hangers. And the next thing you know, it’s a billion-dollar industry with 60 million babies’ lives snuffed out. And now Democrats want to snuff them out even as they’re being born.

This is wicked foolishness, and for the sake of all humanity, for the sake of sanity itself, it must stop. Preposterous can be funny; but this stuff isn’t funny anymore.

We are not under any obligation whatsoever to “affirm” any kind of stupid crazy thing that anybody says about him or her self.

 

A Big ‘Uh-Oh’ for Women’s Sports REPRINT

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

From July 19, 2017

 

“I enjoy being a girl…”

Everything leftids believe is based on some kind of delusion. The government creates wealth. You can raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour with no adverse effect on business.

And of course, if you say you’re a girl, that makes you a girl. Whatever you say you are, you are. And only a Biggit says otherwise.

And so, at Cromwell High School in Connecticut, a 15-year-old boy with a mustache has gone out for girls’ track–because the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference says you are whatever you say you are–and has already come in first in a girls’ track meet (http://www.crisismagazine.com/2017/transgender-lunacy). Ain’t that grand? And because he’s a freshman, he can look forward to four full years of filling his shelf with girls’ track trophies. Well, at least until bigger and stronger boys with full beards say they’re girls, too, and knock him out of the catbird seat.

The girl who trained so hard to come in second in the meet, and win nothing, said, “I can’t really say what I want to say…” Yer darn tootin’ you can’t! The Human Rights Commission might be listening. You know what they do to those who utter hat speach.

Hey! what happens when it’s time to give out girls’ athletic scholarships? Can boys scarf those up, too?

And what happens when the workplace catches on, and men start declaring themselves women so they can get raises and promotions that would otherwise go to…ahem!…real women?

You can’t follow crazy thoughts and not end up in crazy places.

‘Are We Encouraging Insanity?’ REPRINT

From April 19, 2019

 

R.J. Rushdoony was asking this question in the 1980s and 90s, before we had anything like “transgender” to contend with–to say nothing of “world is gonna end!” climate change, or a “Green New Deal.”

https://chalcedon.edu/resources/videos/are-we-encouraging-insanity-our-threatened-freedom

This essay can be found in a collection, Our Threatened Freedom, published in 2015 and featuring some nooze gems that will tax your power to believe it. Like the four or five full-time agents assigned to bust a little boy who was selling fishing worms without a license. I helped edit the book, and wrote the cover blurb, so I take an interest in it.

Meanwhile, I think the answer to Rushdoony’s question is, “You bet we are–and you ain’t seen nothin’ yet!”

From November 7, 2019

Is there a state that’s short a governor?

I keep asking myself how long this crazy stuff can go on; and I don’t know the answer.

The March of Lunacy

Why do we have a “transgender” movement? Was there some kind of demand for it? Really? Why do you get kicked out of your job for saying only women can give birth to babies?

Why does the government tell you how many points your high school football team’s allowed to score? Why does the governor of New York insist there were no hurricanes until we came along with our SUVs and created Climate Change?

Who thinks it’s a good idea to keep the crazies in the driver’s seat?

City Asserts Man’s ‘Right’ to Spend Night in Women’s Shelter REPRINTr

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

From  October 13, 2018

If your town or city has anything like an “equal rights commission,” your town or city has too much money and needs its budget cut so that it can’t get into any more mischief like this.

The Anchorage Equal Rights Commission is trying to punish a women’s shelter for not allowing a drunken man, who insisted he is a woman, to sleep overnight in the shelter with the other women, many of whom are there to escape abuse and sexual assault: but at least they’ve dropped their charges against the shelter’s lawyer, who had the temerity to defend his client   How much more of this do we have to take? How do you even talk to these deluded left-wing cretins?

Don’t bother trying to talk to them. Just shut them down.

This insanity has to stop.

And that’s all the news I can stand to cover today.

‘Toni the Tampon’ Teaches Kids That Men Can Menstruate REPRINT aate

From March 15, 2017Image result for images of the adventures of toni the tampon

Well, I’m back from my walk, and good and cold: lotsa Man-Made Climbit Change today.

Yesterday Linda alerted us to a new “gender-inclusive coloring book” for children, The Adventures of Toni the Tampon, which teaches children that men can menstruate. (http://www.nowtheendbegins.com/liberal-insanity-new-book-toni-the-tampon-teaches-children-men-can-menstruate/) Is it really necessary to say that this is wicked foolishness?

Somewhere out there must be someone with enough public clout to offer a $10,000 cash prize to any man who can prove that he can, and does, menstruate. And women who say they’re men, because they’re nuts, aren’t eligible. Let’s see how long it takes for some guy to win the prize.

Did anyone notice that all this transgender hooey shifted into high gear after the Supreme Court stuck us with same-sex pseudomarriage? There is no appeasing these people, these culture-killers. God only knows what they’ll demand, after they get what they want by way of legitimizing “gender fluidity.” Please, Lord, grant that we never find out!

We need to find some way of protecting our children from this evil; and it probably involves protecting them from what we laughingly call “public education.”

How Much Will Maine Pay to Keep Trannies in Women’s Sports?

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Fine, let's talk about trans athletes - by Parker Molloy

“I’m a woman, hear me roar!”

You can get what you want–but you’ll have to pay for it.

Maine Gov. Janet Mills–Democrat, of course–has defied the federal government’s ban on male athletes (“trans women”) playing girls’ and women’s sports (https://www.breitbart.com/sports/2025/02/24/maine-republican-says-extreme-trans-athlete-policy-will-cost-state-millions/)–a move that could, and probably will, cost Maine some $250 million in federal aid to education.

Why do Democrat politicians want to do this? And it’s not just politicians: the Maine Principals’ Assn. is all in for it. Well, that’s public school “educators” for you.

And what’s a quarter of a billion dollars? Just raise the school tax! That’s the usual remedy.

We really need an explanation of the Democrats’ bizarre fondness for “transgender.” How is this a good idea? How can anyone but a crackpot support it? What great good is it expected to accomplish?

The problem with public education is the educators

Your children need to be taken out of these reprobates’ hands.

Had Enough Yet, Parents?

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

You want your kiddies “educated” by him? Really? Would you believe this mutant is a “dean” in a public high school? Have we truly come to this?

Today’s public schooling outrage comes to us from Fairfax County, VA, where the district school board has ruled to prohibit teachers from notifying parents when their child “decides” to “change gender” (https://freebeacon.com/campus/virginia-school-district-prohibits-teachers-from-contacting-parents-when-students-change-gender/). Sorry for the quotation marks. We need them when we talk about crapola.

So if your child “decides” to change his name, use the opposite-sex bathroom, or demand the use of really silly pronouns… the teacher is prohibited from letting the child’s parents know.

And if a teacher’s “personal beliefs” get in the way–so what? That’s the policy. Obey it or else.

No parental consent is required anywhere along the line. What would move a little kid in kindergarten to say “I’m non-binary!”? Uh… let’s see… crystal ball… Ooh-ooh, I know! Praise and approval from the “teachers”! Lots of attention! And if some other kid bugs you, you can have him or her totally destroyed because nothin’, baby, nothin’ trumps transgender!

Supposedly Congressional action is brewing over this (good luck finding any Democrat who’ll buck the trannies); and by jove, Fairfax Co. schools currently have hundreds of job vacancies! It must be hard finding people who are evil enough to teach there.

Meanwhile, parents have elected a “shadow board” whose job will be to monitor and rebut the real board. It has no authority.

Look, it’s simple. These “educators” are out to wreck our country, and the schools are how they do it. The only effective remedy is to take the children out of the schools and end public education.

Before it ends America.
