Stopping the Transgender Conveyor Belt...

SIN IS INSANITY
"I have told you, counseled you in the past, that sin is insanity. Your world and its people are involved--they walk as on a treadmill, seeking power and money and material goods and pleasure. And they go round and about, never stopping as the world plunges faster to the abyss.” – Our Lady, August 4, 1979

"Man shall not condone evil or rationalize sin. Homosexuality is an abomination in the eyes of God and man! The Creator condemns those who do not repent of this sin." - Our Lady of the Roses, August 5, 1977

"Are you so blind that you do not recognize the acceleration of sin among you? Murders abound, thievery, all manner of carnage, destruction of young souls, abortion, homosexuality, condemned from the beginning of time by the Eternal Father. Yet sin has become a way of life. Sin is condoned now, even unto the highest judge of your land and your lands throughout the world. As you have sown so shall you reap. Sin is death, not only of the spirit, but of the body. Wars are a punishment for man's sin, his greed, his avarice." - Our Lady of the Roses, August 14, 1981

Almost everyone agrees that rates of transgender identification are skyrocketing, especially among young girls. But nobody seems to agree on the cause.

Is it social contagion, fueled by social media and peer pressure? Is it social acceptance, as a more tolerant society finally lets transgender kids embrace their true selves? Or is it just good business, as gender clinics profit by shuffling children through an expensive series of drugs and surgeries?

Maybe the answer is all of the above—at least to some degree.

But one important contributor is often overlooked: the law. Over the last decade, a complicated network of state and federal laws has increasingly channeled children down the path of gender transition. These laws operate in a wide variety of settings—from public schools, to professional counseling, to custody disputes, to foster care, to adoption, to health insurance, to the practice of medicine itself. And in each setting, the law places a heavy thumb on the scale, pushing children and parents toward gender transition. The law operates, in effect, as a transgender conveyor belt.

Here’s how it works. But buckle up, because there are many stages in the process.

First, school districts across the country have adopted curricula that require teachers to introduce the concept of gender identity as early as pre-K. In Montgomery County, Maryland, for example, the Board of Education mandated a series of “inclusivity” books for pre-K through eighth grade that promote gender transitioning and “disrupt students’ either/or thinking” about gender. The school district refuses to notify parents when these concepts are taught and refuses to allow parents to opt kids out of the teaching. Not surprisingly, some children exposed to this teaching (and social media and peer influence) begin questioning their gender identity.

Once a child questions his or her gender identity, many public schools are legally required to affirm the child’s new gender identity with pronouns, bathrooms, and the like—and to conceal that identity from the child’s parents. California and New Jersey have even sued school districts that dared notify parents, arguing that it violates the child’s “privacy” and is “discriminatory” to inform parents that their child has a new gender.

If parents find out about their child’s new identity and seek counseling, they will discover that twenty-two states and over one hundred local governments have now adopted so-called “conversion-therapy bans.” These laws operate as a one-way ratchet on professional counselors. Michigan’s law, for example, requires counselors to provide “acceptance,” “support,” and “assistance to an individual undergoing a gender transition,” while making it illegal to talk with a child about “behavior or gender expression” that aligns with his or her biological sex. This means counseling in many states can go in only one direction: toward a gender transition.

If parents nevertheless persist in affirming a child’s God-given body, some states have begun removing children from their parents’ custody. Illinois is considering legislation that would define child abuse to include a parent’s refusal to medically transition a child. And Indiana stripped Catholic parents of custody after a report that they wouldn’t call him by a new female name and pronouns. Even though the state concluded there was no abuse or neglect, it kept him in a foster home that would affirm his preferred identity, saying he “should be in a home where she is [ac]cepted for who she is.”

The law also favors gender transitions in divorce, foster care, and adoption. The California legislature recently passed a bill giving preference in custody disputes to the parent that affirms a child’s gender transition. Although Gov. Newsom vetoed the bill, Massachusetts and Oregon have denied loving parents an opportunity to foster and adopt solely because state officials deemed the parents insufficiently “affirming” to a child who might someday, hypothetically, seek a gender transition. These laws pressure all parents—biological, foster, and adoptive—toward enabling their child’s transition.

If a child wants to pursue a costly gender transition, the law is also quick to help. The federal government has announced that employers and insurers across the country must provide insurance coverage for gender transitions, including for minors. If an employer’s plan excludes that coverage, the employer (and insurance company) can be punished for “sex” discrimination. That makes it much easier to afford a lifetime of expensive hormones and surgeries.

Many doctors remain reluctant to perform gender-transition procedures, especially on children, given the risk of irreversible harm. But the law pushes the envelope there, too. The federal government has proposed a new rule that requires doctors and hospitals across the country to perform gender-transition procedures, including on children, or be guilty of “sex” discrimination. So if a doctor would prescribe hormones to treat menopause, or perform a mastectomy for a woman with breast cancer, he must do the same for a girl who wants to look like a boy—or else risk federal penalties.

This, in short, is how the conveyor belt works: The school encourages the child to embrace a new gender. Teachers must affirm it and hide it from parents. Counselors must support it. Parents must go along or risk losing custody. Employers and insurers must pay for it. Doctors must perform it. All of this is imposed by law. And then we wonder why cases are skyrocketing.

What can be done?

The good news is that every step in this legal conveyor belt is now being challenged in court. And many of these challenges will succeed, because the transgender conveyor belt is a legal anomaly that conflicts with religious freedom, parental rights, free speech, and sound medical science.

Take the first step—schools. My firm, Becket, sued the Montgomery County Board of Education, arguing that parents must be notified and given an opportunity to opt out when the school pushes controversial views on gender identity. Other parents have sued schools that transitioned their children behind their backs. These lawsuits are based on the timeless constitutional principle that parents have the primary responsibility to guide the religious and educational upbringing of their children. They can stop the transgender conveyor belt before it starts.

Similarly, several counselors have challenged one-way-ratchet counseling laws as violating freedom of speech, because those laws silence conversations with clients who simply want to discuss embracing their biological bodies. Three Supreme Court justices recently expressed interest in this type of legal challenge. If the Supreme Court takes one of these cases and protects freedom of speech, it will ensure that children everywhere can access the biology-affirming counseling they need.

What about parents? My firm defended the Indiana Catholic couple who lost custody of their son because they would not refer to him using a new female name and pronouns. We also sued Massachusetts for refusing to let a Catholic couple foster or adopt. These lawsuits, again, argue that basic principles of religious freedom and parental rights prevent the government from taking children away from loving homes.

Finally, we sued the federal government—and won—for trying to force religious doctors and hospitals to perform and insure gender transitions, including for children. Two courts concluded that forcing doctors to perform gender transitions would violate religious freedom.

But these doctors didn’t just invoke religious freedom. They also cited the mounting body of scientific evidence showing that gender transitions are harmful, especially for children. The typical regimen of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgery imposes well-known harms—from cardiovascular harm, to reduced bone density, to loss of sexual functioning, to permanent sterilization. Meanwhile, the evidence of long-term benefit from these interventions is lacking. And most children who question their gender identity grow out of it naturally—meaning any medical intervention may impose serious harms for no reason at all.

For that reason, state legislatures are now pushing back. In recent years, twenty-two states have passed laws prohibiting gender-transition procedures for minors, citing mounting evidence of harms. Children who were rushed into a transition and hurt by it are also fighting back, filing medical malpractice lawsuits against the healthcare providers who permanently scarred and sterilized them.

The tide is turning even in Europe, which originally pioneered gender transitions for children. The UK is closing its only dedicated gender-identity clinic for children after an independent review questioned its safety, noting that staff felt pressured “to adopt an unquestioning affirmative approach.” Likewise, Sweden and Finland have pulled back from gender-transitions for minors, concluding that the risks outweigh the benefits.

In short, the transgender conveyor belt is not inevitable. It is legally fragile because it contradicts basic principles of religious freedom, free speech, parental rights, and medical science. It should be stopped before it destroys more lives.

Our Lady of the Roses Awesome Bayside Prophecies... https://www.tldm.org/Bayside/ These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.

SIN IS INSANITY
"I have told you, counseled you in the past, that sin is insanity. Your world and its people are involved--they walk as on a treadmill, seeking power and money and material goods and pleasure. And they go round and about, never stopping as the world plunges faster to the abyss.” – Our Lady, August 4, 1979

FREE WILL
"I say unto you, as your God, I bring not your destruction. You will bring about your own destruction, for I leave you, as your God, to the exercise of your free will. In your free will, if you reject your God and the plan for man's redemption as given from the beginning of time, I say unto you, you will destroy yourselves.
"Sin is insanity; insanity shall be loosed upon your world. There will come a time, if you continue on your present path, so vile and evil upon mankind that those who are living will envy the dead.” – Jesus, May 18, 1977

THE GREAT FOUNDATION
"Pray constantly your Rosary, your beads of prayer to Heaven. Remain unified in your family lives. The institution of your country--the great foundation is based on family life. Destroy the family and you destroy your country. The enemies--the enemy is already within your country. Watch and pray well, My children." - Our Lady, June 18, 1980

READ YOUR BIBLES
"Your word of homosexuality can be explained by the story of Sodom and Gomorrah. Read in your Bibles or consult your clergy. Find yourselves, My children, a humble, pious clergy. Many have fallen away from the Faith." Our Lady, October 6, 1992

PASTORS HELD RESPONSIBLE
"We hold the pastors of My Son's House, We hold them as being responsible for the fall of the children. Be ye warned now, My children, that woe to the man who has this responsibility upon his conscience and his soul. Scandals have been brought into the lives of your children. Perversion, homosexuality, immorality, perverted sex, My children-where shall you stop but at the abyss!" Our Lady, December 7, 1977

AN ABOMINATION
"Man shall not condone evil or rationalize sin. Homosexuality is an abomination in the eyes of God and man! The Creator condemns those who do not repent of this sin." Our Lady, August 5, 1977

BLACK CLOUD OVER AMERICA
"In the days of Sodom, so too were men giving themselves over to all the pleasures of the flesh: eating, drinking, marrying, giving in marriage. All manner of sinful lusts are being committed. Men shameful with men, women casting aside their role of motherhood and lusting after women. As it was in the days of Sodom, so now is this black cloud over America." Our Lady, July 14, 1979

SODOM: "WE DESTROYED IT"
"And the great issue now of homosexuality in your country, that shall be on the balance that Michael holds. Unless this balance is evened by removing this evil from your country and bringing in just laws to prevent the spread of homosexuality, you cannot be saved; your country cannot be saved. Because I repeat again, as I have repeated in the past: When a country has given itself over to immorality and all pleasures of the flesh, and abominations of the flesh, then that country will fall! If you do not believe Me, My children, I say: You will read your history books, and you will find out that there was a Sodom and Gomorrah. And what did We do to that abominable city, Sodom? We destroyed it! And what did We do to Gomorrah? We destroyed it! And We destroyed all who did not follow the plan for their redemption." Jesus, November 1, 1985

SIN: FORERUNNER OF WAR
"For sin is always a forerunner for war, My children: murders, persecutions, robberies, all manners of sins of the flesh, homosexuality, lesbianism, perversion, sodomy. Sodom and Gomorrah fell for less sins than you have committed now upon your earth. Noah took to the ark and the world was in a better state spiritually than your world now; for you have accepted a sophisticated manner of sin, based on man's reasoning and not God's truth." Our Lady, October 2, 1979

ANY COUNTRY
"Any country that allows homosexuals to roam and to seduce the young shall be destroyed." Our Lady, June 30, 1984

"I ask that all who hear My voice will take their Bibles, and if they do not have one, search, but find the right Bible, those printed not after 1965, My children." - Jesus, October 5, 1985
     "You must all obtain a copy of the Book of life and love, the Bible. Do not accept the new mods. Try to find in your bookstores the old Bibles, My children, for many are being changed to suit the carnal nature of man. I repeat, sin has become a way of life." - Our Lady, October 6, 1992
    "I must ask you all to read but a few short chapters a day now, the Book of life and love, your Bible. Knowledge must be gained for all the disciples of My Son, for you will be attacked by scientific minds. But do not be concerned what you will say to them when accosted, for the words will be given to you by the Spirit." - Our Lady, April 10, 1976
    The Douay-Rheims Bible was published in 1899. It is the official Bible of the Roman Catholic Church. Almost all other Bibles have been rewritten by Satan.   See: https://www.tldm.org/directives/d33.htm , https://www.tldm.org/directives/d415.htm and https://www.tldm.org/directives/d182.htm   If you don't have a Douay-Rheims Bible order it now!
