Gender Theories Purposefully Cancel Christians

Another one bites the dust over transgenderism. Daily wire had an article entitled, Christian Organization Suspended From Twitter After Calling Dr. Rachel Levine ‘A Man Who Believes He Is A Woman.’

I still believe that the powers-that-be are using this issue and LGBTQ+ promotion to cancel Christians, especially Catholics. It divides Christians to the nth degree. It seems like compassion to accept and tolerate (tolerance in the old sense) this disorder, but it's not loving per 1 Corr. 13: 6. "Love does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the Truth."

Once we're out of the way, the utopia may commence.

Gender Fluid Children's Book Warning

So, my youngest came home with a Magnus Chase book. The one with the Gods of Asgard (not leaving a link). She's been reading the other mythology books by Rick Riordan. They weren't weird. (I always ask if they're weird just in case we need to talk about it; yes, I need to do better).

Well, I didn't notice that this particular new one with the Gods of Asgard won the Stonewall Book Award. Yes, that's what it's called. The "Stonewall" award. It's "for exceptional merit relating to the GLBT experience." It's from the American Library Association.

Thank goodness my wife looked up the book online. I didn't notice the award glaring on the back of the book. There's a major character who explores/questions his/her gender identity in the book. And my eleven-year-old was going to read it. Got to be more careful.

Being from the American Library Association itself gives me chills since every library is now a minefield for my children. Well, I should have known with the drag queen story hour and such in so many libraries. (I stood in the childrens' section in the Boston Public Library with my children where the abomination started. I probably shouldn't have taken a picture of the big chair near the window where the drag queens read. It was just a tourist attraction as much as any other Boston landmark.)

I should've known that Rick Riordan was going to go full gender confused on the kids. He works for Disney/Hyperion.

Love(1) Is Not Love(2)

I grew up in a town northeast of a big city named Adelphia. The city's name means "City of Love." Never heard of it? It's in the U.S.

Of course, the real name is Philadelphia which means "City of Brotherly Love."

But I heard that "Love is Love." I wonder how can this be true?

Are all these loves equivalent?

• Sister/Brother
• Mother/Son
• Father/Daughter
• Dog/Dog owner
• Gamer/Mindcraft 
• Husband/Wife

The Greeks had at least four words for love that can be found in the book The Four Loves by C.S. Lewis.

They are (according to Wikipedia)

Storge – empathy bond
Philia – friend bond
Eros – romantic love
Agape – unconditional "God" love

or (affection - friendship - eros - charity)

Eros can also be a desirous love for chocolate or video games.

Lets put the letters of the loves next to the list above. Storge = S; Philia = P; etc.

• Sister/Brother S/P/A
  
• Mother/Son S/A
  
• Father/Daughter S/A
  
• Dog/Dog owner S/P
  
• Gamer/Mindcraft E
  
• Husband/Wife S/P/E/A

The above listing may be debatable, but it can be seen that love is not love in all cases. Husband/Wife love is the ultimate love (includes all four) that has the potential to create new humans that can love.

May we always cringe whenever we read "Love is Love." It's not.
