We, the innocent, who have turned our society into a madhouse

Subject: California goes full Onion
Drudge has linked to a story about a “transgendered” 50-year old male Gulf War vet who is playing on a women’s college basketball team in Santa Clara, CA. The more you read, the more surreal it gets.

Gabrielle Ludwig, a 6-foot-6-inch transsexual player on Mission
College’s women’s basketball squad, reflects on her return to
college ball. The 50-year-old transsexual, Army veteran, father
and Mission College freshman is believed to be the first hoopster
to play college ball as both a man and a woman.

LA replies:

We have turned our society into a madhouse, in which the sickest and most deranged things are considered normal and right and are upheld by the power of the state, and disapproval of those deranged things is considered sick and wicked and is punished by the power of the state.

And, having done all that, having reversed right and wrong, having reversed the normal and the sick, we expect people to continue to behave normally, and we are shocked when they don’t.

Regarding your comment:

“And, having done all that, having reversed right and wrong, having reversed the normal and the sick, we expect people to continue to behave normally, and we are shocked when they don’t.”

How simple and obvious this once would have been in our society—until we embraced nihilism and rebelled against God. The default state of man’s being is evil (sin). The formation of our government was based on this understanding. I remember someone once said to me that you never have to tell children to be bad. It comes naturally. But you must always work to instill good and right from wrong in a child.

Only the preservative impact of traditionalist Christianity can enlighten and uplift us.
