Body Defacement, Body Discontentment - Root Problems with Transgenderism
February 15, 2018
Why do men want to rearrange their bodies? Is it appropriate for us to take a duck’s legs and sew them on to a beagle. . . “just for fun?” Or, what if a human tries to turn himself into a leopard, by tattooing stripes on his body, and making ugly cuts on his face? Or, what if a man wants to turn himself into a woman by 100 surgeries? Or, what if a man wants to grind his hand up into a blender. . . “just for the fun of it”? The modern mind has corrupted big time on the treatment of the body, and it’s pretty much mainstream. Why do homosexuals and transgenders hate their bodies so much? We take a look at Nancy Pearcey’s new book Love Thy Body on this edition of the program.

The schools seem to be studying hard about how to thoroughly mess up a child’s mind. New reading programs for six year olds present Tilly the Transgendered Teddy and Mr. Blue Crayon in the Red Wrapper. The abnormal and dysfunctional is bound and determined to destroy the rest of society. Does this call for Christians to increasingly separate from these systems? Parents must think deliberately about who will disciple their children. We also take a look at Central Oklahoma University’s decision whether to invite Ken Ham or a Drag Queen to present to the students. They were looking for something highly intelligent and non-controversial.

A PCA elder from Houston is running for Governor of Texas, and he says he is 100% in support Roe V. Wade. We also look at the record of the Methodist church, beginning with a Methodist pastor who conducted the Sand Creek massacre in Colorado, possibly the worst Native American massacre of women and children in history. Then, we take a look at how the Methodists in the Rocky Mountain region are treating abortion (the killing of children) in our day. As the hypocrisies are made manifest, will they repent?

Glee was the most sexually-perverted program for young people on television. So, a homeschooled young man who stars in the television program falls into perversion himself. He is arrested for it, and he commits suicide. This is the pattern for Christian kids who get entangled up into the world, and the end is worse than the beginning for them (according to the Apostle Peter). How do we know that children raised in Christian homes are more and more loving the world, and pulling away from the faith?

Parents need to be aware of the sad cases of abuse related to gymnastics and sports in general. How did this Larry Nassar “get away” with twenty years of abuse 265+ little girls? Here is systemic failure at multiple levels. A Christian woman broke the case open and we commend her for it. But, what can parents do to avoid this nightmare? We mention multiple risk factors related to gymnastics, immodesty, doctor visits, open showers in gymnasiums, etc. etc. Parents, let's mitigate the risks, for the love of our children!

We address the tough questions for Christians who are wrestling with matters of sexuality. Must my wife agree to intimacy every time I want it? If a wife has a husband who is doing porn, and he refuses to get help. . . should she get the church elders involved? The girls in the church put on a lingerie party for a young woman about to be married. Should the pastors be concerned? What about sexual self-gratification for the Christian? What is a healthy intimacy life in the Christian marriage? How does a man love his wife as Christ loved the church? We discuss these and other questions with Douglas Wilson, pastor and author of books like Fidelity, Federal Husband, and How to Exasperate Your Wife.

Moody Bible Institute is in crisis now. The story is pretty familiar for most if not all Christian colleges. It’s the same old battle over biblical authority, inerrancy, and creationism. The conservative theology professor is on ice, and the liberals gain ascendance. Should you send your children to Christian colleges that give way to neo-orthodoxy and the typical slides into apostasy?

American churches have seen the first serious drop off in attendance in just the last seven years. Evangelicals are apostatizing much faster than other denominations, especially on homosexual marriage - a 250% apostasy rate in the last 7 years. And, America has finally seen a sharp drop off in the number of people who believe in creation. The battle for the faith in America has reached the most intense levels — the most intense it has been in all of Western history.

Every worldview will have its heroes and its villains. What are yours? We discuss the most important people of the 20th Century, and compare our list with that which we find on Biography.com. Some evangelical academics call Thomas Aquinas “the greatest, wisest, most intelligent human theologian who ever lived. . . ” Or, was his teaching some of the most dangerous teachings that the Catholic and Protestant church ever inculcated? Did his theory of knowledge undermine the Western world? These are important questions for the modern church, especially as we fight to salvage what remains of the Christian faith in the West.

After the President’s State of the Union address, we take a close look at the foundations of the nation. We look for humility in the State of the Union talk, and find seven references to the word “Proud” and one reference to the word “Pride.” Borgen Magazine’s survey of the nations, finds that America is the proudest nation in the world. We also compare America’s violation of the 6th and 7th commandments to North Korea. Who is doing better? The answer may surprise you.

Carl Sagan, Isaac Asimov, Robert Heinlein, Arthur Clarke, Gene Roddenberry, H.G. Wells. . . Atheists. . . Agnostics. . . Promulgators of the new religion called "scientism." We discuss these powerful ideas that have captured the imagination of modern man. Then, we ask the question - Should Christians be reading this stuff? How long would a Christian sit in the seat of the scoffer before he is actually sitting on his lap?
