Another Day, Another ELCA LGBTQ+ Post

7/20/2021

Below is an example of the constant message the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America is putting out in their publications and social media pages.

This post comes from a child (who claims to be transgender.)

"If the Bible calls it a sin, your opinion doesn't matter."

What other exciting news will the leadership of the ELCA be sharing with us soon?

This is not a denomination. It is part of satan’s propaganda machine. It is the “religious” wing of this serpent bent on destroying this country. The other parts of this machine are the Marxist Democrat Party, many Republicans, the deep state, left wing media, academia, BLM, antifa, many corporations, big tech. All marching in unison. They will be overcome!

And why limit oneself to ONE non-biological gender? Behold “the primary categories of people who believe they have multiple gender identities: ambigender; bigender; blurgender; collgender; conflictgender; cosmicgender; crystagender; deliciagender; duragender; demiflux; domgender; fissgender; gemelgender; gendercluster; genderfluid; gendersea; genderfuzz; genderfractal; genderspiral; genderswirl; gendervex; gyaragender; libragender; ogligender; pangender; polygender; and trigender.”

And if one aspires to maximum wokeness, one might don this gender flavor of the day: "Juxera," which is described by our alphabet masters as "a gender that is feminine aligned or fingender, but is not woman aligned or fiaspec, and has no connection to womanhood."

The masculine equivalent to Juxera is is "Proxvir," and there's a "non-binary" equivalent called "Maverique."

Since the ELCA renounced Christianity, behold the Planet Zorb lunacy of which it has become a willingly credulous partaker.

One thing that would help Christians in their "messaging" would be not to use the term "gender" when they mean "sex." In the above list we are given a number of terms all incorporating the term "gender." In the past "gender" was understood to be a linguistic term and maybe one which referred to things associated with sex, but not to sex, itself. When the term first began to be used to mean "sex," as such, it could have been taken merely to be a "kinder, gentler" term for sex. But, it seems something more insidious was possibly in mind. We are now being indoctrinated to understand that "gender" (i.e., "sex") is merely a social construct, and not a biological reality. It is relatively easy so to argue when one is dealing with a term not traditionally understood to mean "sex," as such, but one which had broader and other connotations. If, in the above laundry list of terms including "gender," one were to take out "gender" and put in "sex," one could see how much harder it would be to sell the list. In addition to "sex," the most one could add to the list would be "bi-sexual" and "homosexual," both with clear reference to and distinguished from "heterosexual." We ought not make it easier for the social construct/woke propagandists by using the term "gender" when we mean the biological, binary reality of sex.

When going to the doctor I used to have to fill out a form that gave me the choice between "male" and "female" sex. At some point that was changed to a choice between "male" and "female" gender. Most recently that form was changed again to have me indicate my "sex at birth" (either male or female). (Evidently at least medics are still interested in biology rather than "social constructs.") Words matter and we would help to clarify the issue, if even ever so slightly, if we would decline to refer to a binary biological reality as "gender," and be careful only to refer to it "sex."

Steve, never underestimate the power of wokeness.

“June 16, 2021 -- Sex should be removed as a legal designation on the public part of birth certificates, the American Medical Association (AMA) said Monday.
. . .
"’Assigning sex using binary variables in the public portion of the birth certificate fails to recognize the medical spectrum of gender identity,’ Willie Underwood III, MD said, and can be used to discriminate.”

The “medical spectrum” of gender identity. How about the “medical spectrum” of race, age, and species identity?

‘The Philosophical Contradictions of the Transgender Worldview’
https://www.thepublicdiscourse.com/2018/02/20971/

. . . “Why do our feelings determine reality on the question of sex, but on little else? Our feelings don’t determine our age or our height. And few people buy into Rachel Dolezal’s claim to identify as a black woman, since she is clearly not. If those who identify as transgender are the sex with which they identify, why doesn’t that apply to other attributes or categories of being? What about people who identify as animals, or able-bodied people who identify as disabled? Do all of these self-professed identities determine reality? If not, why not? And should these people receive medical treatment to transform their bodies to accord with their minds? Why accept transgender “reality,” but not trans-racial, trans-species, and trans-abled reality? The challenge for activists is to explain why a person’s “real” sex is determined by an inner “gender identity,” but age and height and race and species are not determined by an inner sense of identity.”

"If anyone tells you . . . they're wrong."

Numbered among the "wrong" by the ELCA overlords are Jesus (Matthew 19:4-5, Mark 7:21), the Apostle Paul (Romans 1:18-32,1 Corinthians 6:9-11), and Martin Luther:

"In the first part we shall consider which persons may enter into marriage with one another. In order to proceed aright let us direct our attention to Genesis 1 [:27], “So God created man . . . male and female he created them.” From this passage we may be assured that God divided mankind into two classes, namely, male and female, or a he and a she. This was so pleasing to him that he himself called it a good creation [Gen. 1:31]. Therefore, each one of us must have the kind of body God has created for us. I cannot make myself a woman, nor can you make yourself a man; we do not have that power. But we are exactly as he created us: I a man and you a woman. Moreover, he wills to have his excellent handiwork honored as his divine creation, and not despised. The man is not to despise or scoff at the woman or her body, nor the woman the man. But each should honor the other’s image and body as a divine and good creation that is well‑pleasing unto God himself." [. http://www.lutherdansk.dk/Web-Living%20as%20husband%20and%20wife/Living%20as%20husband%20and%20wife.htm ]

The ELCA, of course, permits not a whisper of dissent in ELCA publications by its pastors and the rubes in the pews as it applauds the Thought Police who would similarly proscribe all public dissent in the Brave New Sexuality regime:

. . ."Helen Joyce, senior writer at The Economist with a Ph.D. in Mathematics, and so, not one to focus on LGBTQ+ related issues . . . has now written:

"Gender self-identification is often described as this generation’s civil rights battle.

"But for a man to declare ‘I am a woman’, and for everyone to be compelled to agree, is not, as with genuine civil rights movements, about extending privileges unjustly hoarded by a favoured group to a marginalised one.

"What we are facing is a fundamental redefinition of what it means for anyone to be a man or woman – the supplanting of biology and a total rewrite of society’s rules, with far-reaching consequences."

Joyce has actually devoted a soon-to-be released book to the subject titled Trans: When Ideology Meets Reality [ https://www.amazon.com/Trans-When-Ideology-Meets-Reality/dp/0861540492/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= ]

Remarkably, the book carries endorsements from world famous atheist Richard Dawkins, who called it, “A frighteningly necessary book: well-written, thoroughly-researched, passionate and very brave.” Even gay activist Simon Fanshawe said, “If anyone doubts that gender ideology poses a threat to all of us — including trans people — you really should read this book.”
