In the latest episode of the ongoing misadventure I’m calling The Emperor’s New Genders (yes – we now have more varieties to chose from than Heinz 57) the Atlantic Coast collegiate athletic conference (ACC) has become the latest organization to decree that 21st century males and females are suddenly so indistinguishable from one another that society should simply do away with separate bathroom facilities.
Headquartered in North Carolina, the ACC had scheduled 14 of its 21 championship events in their home state for this academic year. But because the Tar Heel state legislature has decided to go with the wisdom of millennia, and their own common sense, opting to protect the privacy and safety of their citizens (from perverts like this), the conference is following the NCAA’s lead and pulling those tournaments – “to protest the state’s controversial bathroom law.” đŻ
Because according to the leftist media – in the above case NBC – ever since five minutes ago it’s “controversial” to expect human beings to use the restroom that corresponds to their chromosomes, i.e., sex. The truth is, the NC bathroom law (HB2) was only passed to reinstate the traditional choice of separate bathrooms that the radically controversial ordinance passed by LGBTQ-whatever activists had sought to revoke for all businesses in the city of Charlotte.
It’s good to see there’s some serious push-back against this latest sanctimonious nonsense. Last Thursday Franklin Graham (President and CEO of Samaritan’s Purse and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association) sent an open letter to John Swofford, commissioner of the ACC, in response to the conference’s ludicrous action and profound hypocrisy. Here’s an excerpt ~
(T)he ACCâs member schools compete in 25 sports divided by genderâ12 menâs sports and 13 womenâs. Though gender issues may be becoming more complicated in higher education and other parts of society, the athletic conference you serve as commissioner doesnât seem to have any problem distinguishing between the two gendersâmale and female. Yet, when a state like the one I live in seeks to make the same distinction with regard to use of public bathrooms in an effort to protect its citizens from those who would use the menâs room today and the womenâs room tomorrow, the academic elites who comprise your conference fake a moral outrage that is frankly shameful.
Ironically, the NCAA is more discriminatory towards transgender people than the public policy they apparently wish to see as law in America. For example, opponents to legislation like NC House Bill 2 support permitting people to use the bathroom which corresponds to the sex they identify with on a given dayâmeaning someone might feel like a man today and a woman tomorrow, switching bathrooms at will.
Yet even the NCAA doesnât allow such casual gender identity for participation in collegiate athletics. The NCAA Policy on Transgender Student-Athlete Participation states, âAny transgender student-athlete who is not taking hormone treatment related to gender transition may participate in sex-separated sports activities in accordance with his or her assigned birth gender.â This is precisely what supporters of HB2 have been requestingâthat people use public restrooms in accordance with their assigned birth gender.
I think I represent the views of millions who would rather preserve gender-specific public bathroomsâa mainstay for generationsâthan to attend a football game in my state to determine the champion of a conference governed by politically-correct, morally hypocritical academics.
Read the whole letter HERE – it’s excellent.
More of us must join forces with courageous men like Franklin Graham and Dr. Michael Brown in refusing to roll over to this gender anarchy that seeks to make a mockery of God’s creation. As Jennifer Hartline recently wrote at The Stream ~
Shame on us if we abandon our children to face this tyrannical bully for themselves while we cave in to try and save ourselves some grief. Shame on us if we donât fight for their bodily, intellectual and spiritual integrity. Woe to us if we leave them to be deformed by a demonic ideology.
Who would choose to settle for this barren, bizarre and hopeless version of life, when the truth is beautiful, rich, and brings with it the vibrant life God desires for His children? Right reason brings order and prosperity. Right reason is freedom.
Find your courage!
If you live in Michigan, one way you can help find your courage is by joining Franklin Graham for his Decision America 2016 visit, in Lansing at the capitol building, on October 4th.
