It is the slippery slope: First a forced Co-Ed locker room policy that favors transgendered, then a forced Co-Ed locker room for everyone.

Once you allow a wanna-be girl with boy parts (until the magic age of 18) to enter a locker room and stand stark naked in front of hormonal girls, you have got a problem.

However, a wanna-be boy would be in danger of her life as she could be raped if she stood stark naked in front of a bunch of teenage boys with raging hormones.

What are our elected officials thinking?

They're not. Nothing but brain flatulence on their part as far as I can tell.

Maybe there's a slippery slope, but it's still a fallacious form of argument. The point is that the original piece was highly misleading, making it seem as if fully co-ed locker rooms were being enforced, when in fact that is not the case. Making stuff up is only going to harm your case.

In the news, not too long ago, there was the story about a woman who shares a locker room with men in professional sports. I neither have the article at hand, nor can I remember the particulars in order to do an Internet search. The situation is dicey.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.

If you had gone to the original link I had provided, you would have found this opening paragraph:

  • CRI’s Analysis
    Existing law states that a school district may not prohibit a pupil from enrolling in any class or course on the basis of the sex of the pupil. This bill would require that a pupil be permitted to participate in sex-segregated school programs, activities, and facilities, including athletic teams and competitions, consistent with his or her gender identity.

    For the complete article, please go to http://capitolresource.org/ab-1266-forc ... s-ammiano/

Thus, the original piece was not misleading, nor was it made up.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.

Why don't they just make a third locker room for all LGBT students to avoid the confusion?

Gender identity? And how does one qualify that?
A teen-aged boy decides that his gender identity is female, so he now has access to the girls changing facilities? Rubbish!
I'm especially interested in those transgendered males who have decided they are actually lesbians in a male body. They have the sexual attraction to women but a few extra parts? What nonsense.

We are made male or female. This is hard-wired in our DNA.
This is the elevation of a mental and spiritual sickness to normality.

It is one more step in the program to erase the truth of two different sexes.

Exactly, Lydia. If you "feel" like a woman, when you have male DNA and a male body, the correct conclusion is that there is something wrong with you. It doesn't make you a "bad person" (we're all fallen), but it's not "normal".

Of course, and then think of all the money that will be paid to the drug companies for body changing pharmaceuticals (along with their dangerous side effects) and then doctors for all the surgeries. Surely, this will reduce the life-span of these transgendered individuals.

However, the most horrific and diabolical effect of this propaganda is that it perverts and destroys the life within our souls. These transgendered individuals have bought the satanic lie.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.
