Transgender: Sodom and Gomorrah Revisited--Experimenting On Our Children

This blog has (correctly) pointed out that we are conducting a massive social experiment on our children--a social experiment which they will be lucky to survive. From illegitimate births which are 35%, or more, of births, to early sexual acitvity which we seem to encourage (except for polygamist cults--Planned Parenthood, and many schools certainly encourage it, and even the young teen actress playing Hannah Montana is seeming to regard sexual activity as "normal' for a 14 or 15 year old girl).
You dobubt me (you FOOL you!!!). Consider the story this morning about a second grade boy in Colorado who wants to go to school dressed as a girl.

You can pretty well guess the opinions of this blogger based on the title ::)
Let us digress for a second here, and mediatate on how the "Founding Fathers" would have reacted to this
We could also meditate on how you spell meditate, but I digress - You mean the wig wearing guys who dressed in lace and silk stockings, like those Founding Fathers?

The founding fathers don't think. They're freaking dead.
Which means that they can't disagree with this guy, even though it's likely they're rolling over in their graves when they hear people like this utter their names. ::)

Well, aside from all us "post-sexual" whatever we are, it doesn't look like this person's blog gets all that much traffic. I mean, he doesn't even have an army of yes-men leaving comments.
He thinks the parents should be whipped? And then appeals to what the founding fathers would have thought about all this? I thought the whole point of the constitution and the bill of rights was that you wouldn't have to be whipped simply because someone doesn't agree with you.
And what do the founding fathers have to do with something that they didn't think of or leave provision for?
There's nothing in the constitution about whether we should tax every iTunes download. I mean, honestly, how could the founding fathers screw us so badly that we'll have to pay taxes on our iTunes downloads?! Now we have to deal with the stupid leftists, always trying to tax everything. [/sarcasm]
Lastly, his whole rant is based on his supposition that a second grader doesn't understand whether he's a boy or a girl. Why not? What would ever make you think that a child has any less an idea about who or what they are than anyone else? I think that people with GID probably have a heightened sense of dysphoria, especially relative to the rest of the population. Many people with GID report having felt something was "off" since early childhood. They didn't have to be in high school or college before figuring it out.
Simply because we're a minority (1% of the population, or whatever) doesn't mean that we don't understand ourselves. It doesn't mean that we need other, smarter, better people to decide what's best for us. Based on my own experience, it's the people outside our group that can't relate to us; they have no idea what we're going through, or the types of feelings that we have. They certainly shouldn't be making decisions for us. The blogger doesn't even understand that the 2nd grader in question is talking about being a girl. The kid isn't expressing a desire to be genderqueer-- being a girl one day and a boy the next. The failure to understand his topic makes the blogger the worst person to decide what's child abuse and what isn't. Ugggh.

I think that was the joke, but as it turns out there are "old order" Amish, and "new order" Amish, and the 'new order' does use some phones, even computers.

I swear, I can't make this up.
In the meantime, Smith has alerted several dozen prayer chains, and her women's Bible study group is praying 12 hours a day for the re-conversion of Felks — and Smith's former kidney.
"I'm all for spiritual curiosity," she says, "but you've got to settle these things beforehand. My kidney belongs to Christ. It will never be Pagan."

I think that was maybe a joke. Larknews strikes me as a religious version of "The Onion". I mean, they're advertising a T-shirt that says "You suck, which is why you need Jesus". Not exactly typical.
And this (http://www.larknews.com/may_2004/secondary.php?page=5) one clinches it. I've been wondering why the Onion hasn't been all that funny lately. Now I'm wondering if they had some people jump ship.
In your defense, tekla, I must say that there are some Christians who really are like the woman being being worried that her kidney won't go to heaven. There really are people who really think this way. They usually also believe that you can't be cremated, otherwise how could you be resurrected? Me, I say torch my worthless carcass when I'm dead. What do I need it for? Resurrection? If God can't resurrect me from a pile of ash, I think I'll have more problems than just having been cremated. :)
I gave up on the difference back when the Onion was in fact, telling more real news than Fox.
