@PopeBeanie – Yes, Once I got my teeth sunk into it, there was over 400 years of research to investigate. Or is it 500? At times it felt like I had bitten off more than I could chew. Alas, I don’t chew much anymore. It was a lot of blood, sweat and tears. Thankful, none of it was mine!

@unseen that was perfect 😂

According to a Trump executive order defining gender, we’re ALL female. Yup… you read that right. We’re all women whether we like it or don’t.

This is what 4 of Trump’s agency picks think of the departments they would lead.

At Costco’s annual meeting on Thursday, 98 percent of shareholders rejected an anti-D.E.I. proposal, according to preliminary vote results. The vote came two days after President Trump released an executive order directing government agencies to investigate D.E.I. programs at publicly traded corporations.

President Trump said on Friday that he had terminated taxpayer-financed security protection for Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the infectious disease specialist who led the nation through the coronavirus pandemic and received death threats after becoming a target of conservatives.

The move, which took effect on Thursday might, made Dr. Fauci the latest…[Read more]

I listed Douglas Murray’s book, The Madness of Crowds in a past Sunday School post. Here is a review of it that covers most of the above conversation. The whole book is worth reading.

If I meet someone who informs me of their preferred pronouns, I’m going to use those pronouns. It’s really easy.

My ex-wife had this exasperating attitude where she was convinced trans people are just playing games for self recognition and yet a massive danger in public restrooms.

The funny thing is, a trans woman is not safe in a male only res…[Read more]

I agree with most of the Christian values I was taught in the Episcopal Church. My main problem with Christianity is that there is no God. His existence is so un-evident that one must believe in him on…[Read more]

The middle one of those links states “Still, the assaults appear to have little to do with the attacker’s gender identity, according to documents filed with the family’s lawsuit. Teachers say he preferred and requested male pronouns, according to a report by a law firm that investigated the assault.”

Robert said“ All the documented attacks and threats on biological women who expressed concern about woman’s safety in bathrooms. A male rapist in a skirt could easily be indistinguishable from a trans woman. Shameful.”

No trans woman has assaulted a woman in a bathroom. This equates to the Hawaiians eating people’s  pets.

It seems extraord…[Read more]

It felt to me in the final few weeks that it was the Democrats to lose. I thought his “Eating the dogs” line in the debate would sink him but he might as well have shot somebody on 5th Ave for all the difference it made. Here is an interesting article on the topic.

Another spin…..

In any event as long as it can be established that the onset of transexualism is biologically based we take out the free will BS and that diminishes societal condemnation of trans people.

If people chose to be trans, rather than being born that way – so what?  It’s a harmless thing in itself, and not like molesting children,…[Read more]

I don’t think someone needs a “female brain” to feel like they are female.  Who knows where gender identity resides?  The body is a complex system.  Biological sex is one thing.  Psychological and social gender identity can be separate from that.

Where’s the relationship between being trans, and being gay?  Is there one?  How would that even be defined?

It is a tad chilly overnight – but I have two fluffy old dogs with me when I go to bed – cosy!

@Strega Just catching the temperature where you are…..17F but feeling like only 8.6F……….Yikes, stay warm!!

“If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse, and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.”
