This article brought the following bible verse to mind: “And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.” Matthew 24:12 NKJV
Although the future may seem bleak, I believe we can find encouragement and hope in the following verses: “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things. The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.”
You have spoken the truth so clearly. Thank you for that. I read PITT posts, especially after taking a beating from the madness. I keep turning to people I love and who I thought loved me—but they either don’t want to hear it, pretend to care, give me advice I’m sure came from a “positive” meme, or yell at me because I’m negative or offensive. Few people can handle what I tell them but expect me to handle it. I find all of this so hypocritical. Then again, I thought that doctors believed in The Hippocratic Oath. In fact, the professionals are the worst of all. They stand in judgment but do not expect to be judged. I say we judge the hell out of them. I say fight back. I say be annoying, be their worst nightmare! after all, they have been ours!
Thank you for writing and sharing! I for one need the bolstering to weather this madness. I am in disbelief on the gender ideology being spooned to our children and the blatant manipulative way it is being done; celebrations with rainbows and unicorns, influencers living 'their best lives'. I have a very liberal background -I grew up on a commune with hippie parents! They may have broken the norms, but they didn't lie about fundamental truths. My 14 yr old son has been encouraged to explore his gender "maybe you'd be happier as a girl" says the gender therapist I regrettably took him to. I'm sure you know the rest. I got my son out of there and we have found a 'safe' therapist to help him with his anxiety. But the whole experience has me traumatized and on high alert. I feel like I walked into something akin to China's Cultural Revolution...
Well said!! Thank you! Unfortunately, our children's delusions are just one of the many symptoms of this world being turned upside down. The truth will come out. It always does. I, for one, will continue to speak the truth. We can be an army! Let us all speak the truth!
Yes! I also described this transgender madness the same, the world has gone “upside down”. I also compared it to the “twilight zone”. It’s crazy! What has happened to common sense and truth?
Oh so true. I am grateful that our children are not directly caught up in this, but we know other parents whose children have lost their bearings. What grieves me is seeing so many confused parents putting their trust in therapists, school counselors and our decaying culture. The backlash will be massive one day.
I had the thought a few months ago that if Fred Rogers were still alive, people would probably decide he was transphobic for telling kids, “I like you just the way you are.” “But this isn’t my real body! I need puberty blockers!” 🙄
Beautifully written. Thank you for reminding me, once again, that I am not alone. And for helping us to stand firm in truth.
"...it will take many of us to “live not by lies” as Alexander Solzhenitsyn reminds us. It is a terrifying thing to hold on to the truth when those around you have their lost grip on it, but it is the most loving and courageous thing you can do."
A man who had detransitioned after many years living as a woman once said, "The ONE person I have the most respect for is the friend who refused to use my preferred name and pronouns." It truly is the most loving and courageous thing. Only TRUTH will set us free!
This post reassures me that sitting like a catatonic lump (yet again) is actually a healthy response to my daughter clinging to an imaginary identity. Thank you.
Not at all. I meant to encourage someone who said they felt like a “catatonic lump.” That sounds terribly bleak to me, far more than depression, and since no one else commented, I thought I’d extend myself. I’m also dealing with heavy sorrow, as well as grief, but I would not define state in such a way. I was only asking to see if you were okay. If you needed a friend, or an ear.
But you seem argumentative, so I’ll disengage. Sorry if what I said offended you. I was honestly concerned, I never expect you to take offense at that.
The one time it is good for a female to identify as a boy: in the book The Emperor's New Clothes. All it took was one truth teller in that tale. Today, we need many. So let's all be like that boy and continue to stand up, point, and trumpet loudly that the Emperor is, in fact, naked. With recent, damning information about the trans cult from WPATH and the Cass report, now is the time to keep on pushing!

You're right. Thank you for your words. They are strong. Keep going everyone. 💪
I am giving thanks for each and every voice speaking against this evil.
When the trusted become the predators, we are seeing a glimpse of hell.

That doesn’t sound very healthy to me. Are you taking care of yourself, or are you too deep in a funk?
my point, like the author's, is that to be depressed is a healthy response to an unhealthy world. did you mean to undermine that concept?

Amen!
I have also gleaned a lot of support and information from Patrick Madrid and Relevant Radio.
Agreed, we must not lie, or let lies travel through us and around us.
