6 hot-button issues Pope Francis and Gen-Z confront in new Disney doc | Catholic News Agency

[In the Disney documentary, ‘The Pope Answers,’ available on Disney+ and Hulu, a group of young adults questioned Pope Francis.] Among the group of 20- to 25-year-olds were Catholics, Protestants, atheists, agnostics, and one Muslim. Each has a unique problem with either the Church or God. They question the pope on some of the Church’s most controversial teachings and difficult problems.

Disney is an extremely anti-Christian, anti-family, pro-grooming company. They have been insidiously so since Walt Disney died. The Southern Baptist Convention started an eight year boycott of the company in 1997. It failed and the SBC folded in 2005, dropping the boycott. Today they offer discount tickets to the morally bankrupt entertainment corporation who routinely incorporates anti-Christian, sexually risque, woke themes into their products.

Most recently, Disney fought like hell in Florida to block Florida’s Parental Rights in Education Act which prohibited teachers from hyper-sexualizing five-year-old children, while, at the same time, having Buzz Lightyear come out of the closet as a homosexual in a children’s movie. They mislabeled good legislation as the ‘Don’t Say Gay Bill,’ despite that charge being completely false. Their only possible motivation was to keep parent’s in the dark about what is happening to their children in the classroom.

I have not, nor will not watch this documentary, because I have been doing my imperfect best to boycott Disney, ABC, ESPN, and LucasFilm since the early 1990s. I have not missed much. Little they do will ever come to any good.

I do not know the extent of the Q&A, nor the Pope’s answers. I certainly do not object to Pope Francis engaging with our youth who are lost, hurt, confused, resentful, and searching for the truth. I have faith he will remain true to Christ in his answers and his love for these young people. I am, however, mystified as to why Pope Francis would choose to work with this evil company… a company that vocally and mockingly rejects the teachings of Christ… why he would work with them in any way, shape or form. That would be my question for him. Dear Pope Francis, why? Why are you aligning yourself with a company dedicated to the ruin of souls?

Pro-abortion students throw eggs at pro-lifers hosting campus event on horrors of abortion – LifeSite

Abra Singleton, the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform’s Southwest regional director, urged pro-lifers to pray that pro-aborts ‘wake up to what’s going on and what they’re okay with.’

TUCSON, Arizona (LifeSiteNews) — Pro-lifers and their display of images showcasing the horrible reality of abortion were attacked on a college campus last week, where pro-abortion students hurled eggs at them in an act of intimidation.

The Center for Bio-Ethical Reform took to the University of Arizona campus on Wednesday, setting up a display of images depicting aborted babies. The group uses this method to educate the public on the reality that abortion kills innocent human beings. During their time at the school, pro-lifers stood with numerous pictures describing abortion as “genocide,” handed out educational pamphlets, and spoke with any passersby willing to engage in a conversation on the issue.

Despite the peaceful nature of the event, the pro-lifers were met with hostility. In a video posted to the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform’s Facebook page, eggs can be seen splattered on the ground below the graphic posters. Following the action, the camera steps out of the display and reveals a crowd of students, some of whom are actively hurling eggs at the pictures.

Another great example of NeoLiberal self defense. I can just imagine the call home on the weekend,

“Hi Mom… oh, not much. Classes are good. Pat and I went to a party Friday… No, I did not get drunk… Uh huh, uh huh… how is daddie? Golf… funny! What? Yeah, I was there. We egged a bunch of Christians in self defense. I hate those MFers. What? No danger at all. They did not lift a finger… Uh huh. They just stood there and let us throw eggs at them. Self defense all the way. It was really funny. Yeah, I am proud of me, too. Give daddie a hug. Love you!”

CVS ‘gender transition’ guide says employees must use preferred pronouns, can use bathroom reflecting identity | Fox Business

EXCLUSIVE: CVS Health’s “gender transition guidelines” for employees requires workers to address people by their preferred pronouns and names and that they may use whichever restroom or locker room they wish regardless of whether the individual identifies as transgender.

In the guidelines obtained exclusively by FOX Business, employees are told they may be entitled to a medical leave of absence “under the Family and Medical Leave Act, state law, and/or CVS Health policy.” Transitioning employees are asked to tell their immediate leaders about their transition so the company “can provide support and to make your transition as smooth as possible.”

“You may also wish to have appropriate medical care to support your transition, including treatments such as hormone replacement therapy and/or gender confirmation surgery,” the guide states. 

“During and after the transition has occurred, CVS Health encourages you to continue to partner with your Leader and your Advice & Counsel representative, and to immediately report any issues that you might have with your employment, your work environment, and/or your Leader, co-workers, clients, and customers,” it continues.

I am sooooooooo glad I am out. Every few months these companies come up with a new and better way to make their employees miserable. Walgreens started pulling this DEIB crap October of 2019, when I was forced to watch a ‘training’ video that vilified white males while glorifying blacks, Asians, and women as perennial victims of patriarchal white privilege. I filed a discrimination complaint with HR, headed up by a black fellow named Henderson who, despite never having watched the training video, dismissed my complaint of racial and gender harassment. I retired a year later along with a mass exodus of nearly ever North Idaho pharmacist and technician from Lewiston to Coeur d’Alene. Lesson learned? No, I am afraid not. Companies like CVS and Walgreens suck as a matter of policy.

Trans woman showered with four Wisconsin high school girls, violated their privacy, letter to district claims | Fox News

A letter sent by a law group claimed that the Wisconsin-based Sun Praire Area School District has not “adequately” addressed a violation of privacy rights after a transgender woman walked into a shower with girls inside of it.

WILL (Wisconsin Institute of Law and Liberty) claimed that the girls entered the shower area with their swimsuits on to rinse off, a practice that is common after swimming in PE class. Moreover, the letter alleges that the transgender student entered the girls’ shower area, approached them, and announced “I’m trans, by the way.”

The letter alleges that the transgender student “undressed fully and showered completely naked right next to one of the girls.”

“He was initially turned towards the wall but eventually turned and fully exposed his male genitalia to the four girls.”

The girls were all freshman, and the man is allegedly an eighteen year old senior. In Wisconsin the age of non-intercourse sexual consent is sixteen years. The age of sexual intercourse consent is eighteen years. Indecent exposure is a class A misdemeanor. These little girls were not old enough to legally consent to this sexually charged situation, yet all this man had to do was utter the magic words, “I’m trans,” and their right to privacy and their right to be free of sexual harassment become subordinate to this man’s desire to shower naked with them.

Teachers ordered by Obama-appointed judge to pay $300K after opposing DEI training: ‘Unprecedented’ ruling | Fox News

DEI or DEIB (diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging) is nothing more than Orwellian doublespeak. Diversity is limited to people’s physical characteristics while criminalizing diversity in character, thought and faith. Equity really means rewarding failure and discriminating against excellence. Inclusion really means exclusion of truth, conservative and Christian beliefs, and heterosexuality. Belonging has a list of requirements, a litmus test, that fundamentally disenfranchises political conservatism and Christian faith.

DEIB policies exist as a tool to systematically exclude, ostracize, and finally eradicate truth, merit, conservatism, and the belief that God’s law is above man’s law. Instead of bringing people together and creating a more colorblind society, DEIB policies seek separate people into as many categories and subcategories as possible in order to enhance victim status.

Biden to veto GOP bill protecting women’s sports, calls it ‘discrimination’ against transgender students | Fox News

“The Administration strongly opposes House passage of H.R. 734*,” the White House said in a statement. “For students nationwide, participating in sports and being part of a team is an important part of growing up, staying engaged in school, and learning leadership and life skills. H.R. 734 would deny access to sports for many families by establishing an absolute ban on transgender students—even those as young as elementary schoolers—playing on a team consistent with their gender identity.”

The White House vowed Monday that President Biden will veto a bill that would prevent biological males from participating in women’s sports should it pass both houses of Congress.

The Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, or H.R. 734, was introduced by Rep. Greg Steube, R-Fla., and is expected to come to a vote on the House floor sometime this week.

*Not a single Democrat member of the House of Representatives voted to protect women’s rights. That’s right. According to these NeoLiberals, men are not supposed to hit women… except during women’s athletics where men are free to fracture as many female skulls as they like. If you are a registered Democrat, do you feel your representative did right by you?

The Catholic teachings on abortion, transgender ideology, and respect for the Eucharist have been front and center around the world for the past year. Catholic President, Joe Biden, who is the elected voice of our nation, not only uses his public office to advocate for no limits on abortion, he also uses his office to support boys and men kicking the crap out of women in women’s sports… in willful defiance of Church teachings. He has deliberately removed himself from God’s Grace. One could argue, by definition, he has even placed himself in a state of excommunication. This means every time he receives Communion he is committing a sin, which further removes him from God’s Grace.

Back in 2017 the Women’s US National Soccer Team, made up of the best female players in the world, scrimmaged a club team made up of fourteen-year-old Texas boys. They got slaughtered 5-2. The average elite high school track and field female performs at about 76% of their male counterparts. There has never been a female basketball player good enough to play in the NBA. The world’s best female decathlete, Austra Skujytė, performed at 71% of Caitlyn Jenner’s Olympic gold medal performance. The raw female bench press record belongs to April Mathis from the United States, who lifted 457lbs. The men’s record is 1350lbs, held by Jimmy Kolb.

Mediocre trans women athletes dominate biological women in just about every sport except gymnastics… because they are really men dressed in women’s clothing with a touch of makeup. Penis, testicles, and prostate. That is the truth. In threatening to veto HR 734, Catholic President, Joe Biden, is actively demeaning and discriminating against biological women, the very women who got him elected. That would be a humorous irony if it were not so evil.

Idaho bans gender-affirming care for transgender minors | Idaho Statesman

Idaho physicians who provide gender-affirming care to transgender minors could now face up to 10 years in prison. Republican Gov. Brad Little on Tuesday signed into law House Bill 71, which makes it a felony to provide puberty blockers, hormone therapies and transition-related surgeries to minors. Idaho becomes the 10th state to ban gender-affirming care for youth and young adults, according to the University of California, Los Angeles, School of Law.

“I recognize our society plays a role in protecting minors from surgeries or treatments that can irreversibly damage their healthy bodies,” Little said in a Tuesday letter to lawmakers. “However, as policymakers we should take great caution whenever we consider allowing the government to interfere with loving parents and their decisions about what is best for their children.”

British Columbia passes bill allowing 12-year-olds to legally ‘self-identify’ as opposite sex – LifeSite

VICTORIA, British Columbia (LifeSiteNews) — The NDP government of the Canadian province of British Columbia passed into law a bill that allows kids facing gender confusion as young as 12 to “self” identify their gender, without the need for a doctor or mental health professional’s approval.  

Bill 15 was introduced by NDP Minister for Health Adrian Dix, born 1964 and a perfect example of Generation X, on March 9 and was passed by the BC legislature on March 28. 

Besides the law allowing kids as young as 12 to legally change their sex and self–identify their gender, it will also let any resident of the province be given a birth certificate without a marker showing that one is male or female.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show, released in 1975, became an instant cult classic for disaffected teens across the world. It starred a troupe of hedonistic Baby Boomers and targeted the youth of the day, Gen X, with a ‘harmless and fun’ sexual fantasy musical filled with gaiety and debauchery. It has been running weekly at Portland’s Clinton Street Theater since 1978, essentially a LGBTQ+ Halloween costume party celebrated fifty times a year for forty-five years. It normalized hedonism for the generation of teens born in the 1960s and 70s. Those teens grew up, for the most part, into “normal” straight, white adults who married and had children, but the psycho-social imprint of the Rocky Horror Picture Show remained.

Somewhere along the road, the intentionally grotesque and flamboyant world of The Rocky Horror Picture Show became public policy. Public schools began to teach the LGBTQ+ lifestyle as normalcy. Drag Queen Story Hour for children became a non-negotiable necessity to teach (groom) children into a lifestyle of ‘sexual diversity.’ Governments passed laws giving the lifestyle primacy over freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and parental rights. Corporations have instituted extreme anti-white, anti-male, anti-Christian DEIB policies along with ridiculous ESG policies. Modern medicine has embraced the false sciences of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, gender and sexual fluidity, now teaching that men can transmogrify into women, and women can transmogrify into men, and whoever gives birth is an it that can literally choose any word from any language, even the language of make-believe, as their personal pronouns.

Genetics, biology, and sanity have been relegated to the sidelines. Benched. Their merit has been stolen and replaced with equity, the theory that all theories, not matter how good, bad, antiquated, or outlandish, are now of equal value, and their truth is simply a matter of opinion and perspective. The earth is flat and the center of the universe? Why not! Trephination releases the evils spirits of mental illness? If that’s my truth, then yes!

Trephination is about as effective at treating mental illness as a radical mastectomy, so lets give it the old college try!

Of the two competing mammalian biological theories, one that claims gender is fixed and binary, male and female, while the other that claims gender is fluid and can be willfully changed on a whim by a young teen with mental health problems, the one with absolutely no basis in scientific fact wins the day. It is the definition of nihilism. And those children I mentioned above? The children of Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z? They are the ones we are experimenting on in a vain attempt to prove this insane hypothesis is a real truth. It is certainly a Horror Show.

Christian mother sues state for denying adoption over her gender beliefs: Putting ‘politics over children’ | Fox News

Oregon mother of five Jessica Bates claims the state rejected her request to adopt two siblings because of her Christian beliefs on gender and sexual orientation.

“[I] reported to my certifier because they really emphasized the sexual orientation and gender identity training, that you have to support it,” she said. “I emailed her and told her I couldn’t do that because of my faith, and then we had a phone call and, because I wouldn’t take a child for cross-sex hormone injections, I was basically told that I’m ineligible to adopt in the state of Oregon.”

Kentucky bans sex changes for kids, blocks schools from pushing trans ideology | Catholic News Agency

Republican lawmakers successfully overrode the governor’s veto to pass a bill that prohibits doctors from providing sex changes for children.

Kentucky lawmakers passed a comprehensive bill that prohibits doctors from providing sex changes for children, prevents schools from pushing transgender ideology onto students, and grants parents more authority and oversight over their children in the public education system.

Following Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear’s veto of the legislation, Republican lawmakers successfully overrode his veto with a 29-6 vote in the House and a 76-23 vote in the Senate. The new rules regarding health care will go into effect 90 days after the veto was overridden Wednesday, but many of the new education rules went into effect immediately.

Idaho governor signs law requiring students to use bathrooms based on biological sex – LifeSite

The law allows students to sue schools if they encounter members of the opposite sex in bathrooms or other private facilities.

SB 1100, “an act relating to protecting the privacy and safety of students in public schools,” was originally introduced on February 13 and signed into law by Republican Gov. Brad Little on March 24.  

According to the bill, lawmakers found that “there are real and inherent differences between men and women” and that “every person has a natural right to privacy and safety in restrooms and changing facilities where such person might be in a partial or full state of undress in the presence of others.”  

“Requiring students to share restrooms and changing facilities with members of the opposite biological sex generates potential embarrassment, shame, and psychological injury to students, as well as increasing the likelihood of sexual assault, molestation, rape, voyeurism, and exhibitionism.”

• Progress = Changing the definition of words retroactively
• Public discipline = Bullying
• Racist = Judging people by the content of their character
• Reproductive health/choice = Ending the life of a viable baby
• Riot = A peaceful protest against the LGBTQ+ and Trans theocracy and groupthink
• Self-defense = Premeditated aggression
• Social Justice = Peer pressure, bullying, vandalism, and violence
• Thero = A gender fluid person who engages in “self-defense”
• TGIF = That guy is female
• Tolerance = submission to the LBGTQ+ and Trans theocracy
• Unconscious bias = Genetically coded original sin limited to Caucasians
• Undocumented citizen = Illegal alien
• Unprecedented = A regular occurrence
• Victim = A violent bully
• Violation of terms = Necessary censorship of the truth
• Voter fraud = One citizen, one vote
• White privilege = A Caucasian genetic disorder leading to cultural theft

I am sure this is just a partial list of the doublespeak. If you want to contribute, let me know.

Nordic bishops issue letter affirming Church teaching on human sexuality | Catholic News Agency

The pastoral letter was read aloud at Mass at Catholic churches in Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, and Iceland.

“Now, notions of what it is to be a human, and so a sexual being, are in flux. What is taken for granted today may be rejected tomorrow. Anyone who stakes much on passing theories risks being terribly hurt. We need deep roots,” the eight members of the Nordic bishops’ conference say in the letter, which was released Saturday.

“The Church,” the letter continues, “condemns unjust discrimination of any kind, also on the basis of gender or orientation. We declare dissent, however, when the movement puts forward a view of human nature that abstracts from the embodied integrity of personhood, as if physical gender were accidental.”

The bishops also say in the letter they protest that such a view is imposed on children as “not a daring hypothesis but a proven truth.”

Transgenderism is “imposed on minors as a heavy burden of self-determination for which they are not ready,” the bishops lament, calling it “curious” that in an intensely body-conscious society, the body is in fact taken too lightly.

Maeve Nota reportedly identifies as a transgender woman. In a classic case of ‘trans self-defense‘ he destroyed a statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary, broke windows, and spray painted anti-Catholic graffiti on the property. He also sprayed paint in the faces and on the clothing of employees. Biden’s DOJ recommended no jail time for Maeve.

I want you to compare this to the DOJ’s aggressive arrest and prosecution of of pro-life activist, Mark Houck. Dozens of agents with long guns and full tactical gear surrounded the Houck residence in the early morning and dragged him off to jail as though he were Osama Bin Laden. All Houck was guilty of was defending his son from a vile and abusive anti-life activist outside of an abortion clinic. He did not damage anything or attack anyone, yet the DOJ desperately tried to put him in jail on trumped up charges. This is another great example of our two-tier justice system. The state of Washington can reject the DOJs recommendation, but they have a terrible track record when it comes to prosecuting militant leftists.
