Back then, we were told the government should "get out of people's bedrooms" and "leave consenting adults alone".
I thought that making the focus of the article on the armed protesters was burying it.HondurasKeiser wrote: ↑Tue Oct 25, 2022 9:10 amIt seems like you're burying the lede here RZehr.RZehr wrote: ↑Mon Oct 24, 2022 10:59 pm Drag story time at Oregon pub draws gun-carrying protesters
https://www.yahoo.com/news/oregon-drag- ... 21470.htmlEUGENE, Ore. (AP) — Protesters, some of them armed, threw rocks and smoke grenades at each other outside a drag queen story time event at an Oregon pub, but the weekend show that was to have featured a child performer went on as planned.
The 11-year-old did not take part as scheduled but was in the audience of about 50 people as some 200 demonstrators and counterdemonstrators — some of them armed — faced off outside the Oregon pub where Sunday's story time was held.The Drag Queen Story Hour, a national project conceived as a means to educate and entertain children by appealing to their imaginations, has generated social media backlash from opponents who claim they want to protect children. Organizers said the protests were actually frightening and endangering participants and they vowed to enhance security at the events but not halt their programs.The pub frequently holds LGBTQ-friendly events and had promoted the show as a story time featuring drag performers singing songs and reading picture books, with plans to include the 11-year-old performer.
Inside the pub, the child who had been expected to perform instead became the show’s guest of honor as several adult drag queens sang and read picture books before an audience that included families with small children.
An advertisement for the event had featured a rainbow, a unicorn and puffy clouds against a blue sky along with superimposed photos of the child performer and three adult drag queens.
The 11-year-old, who goes by the stage name Vanellope, has performed at the eatery and live music venue before with little fanfare. Videos posted on the pub’s Facebook page shows her dancing and singing in a poofy white and blue dress while families with small children watch and dance along.
One could weep for them. Perchance you might be there to offer counsel when and if they have regret and seek to undo the evil of their desire. Divorce? Perhaps… definitely separation.JimFoxvog wrote: ↑Tue Oct 25, 2022 5:36 pm Here's how gender confusion is playing out in our local Mennonite Church. One elder has two children affected by this popular delusion. One son married a woman who presented an ultra-feminine persona, soon after marriage, decided she was a male, is taking male hormones and is growing a beard. (Anyone think this is grounds for divorce?) Another son does not want to identify as male or female and is taking female hormones leading to occasionally disabling morning-sickness-type symptoms. I doubt either is identifying as Christian any longer, so it's really none of my business what they do, but it's quite distressing to their family. I just listen and show I care.

to arrive at conclusions that put it firmly outside the way of Christ.
As easy as it is to take a swipe at "The Right" - calling Liberation Theology for what it is and warning people off of it, is good and necessary, even when done by a group of people that hold political positions you don't care for.
i thought of this topic when viewing this today.

Project Veritas recently released their tape of the Dean of an elite private school bragging about his high school students playing with sex toys while being taught "queer sex".
Watch the full episode here: http://bit.ly/3BpfFRZ
i know nothing about Project Veritas, but, i’ve listened to Matt Walsh in recent months, and, i’ve viewed numbers of reports about parents going to school board meetings (where parents belong) to question+complain about books that they tried to read/quote in those adult board meetings to be specific about their complaints - and were silenced, not allowed to read or show graphic content/pictures in those books. FOR CHILDREN ONLY.
