Popular children's YouTuber Miss Rachel is promoting Pride Month, and so is a member of
00:00:06.040
her team, even inviting her young audience to a very inappropriate Pride event in Chicago.
00:00:14.380
We've got all of this, a biblical response to it, and much more about Pride Month on today's
00:00:21.460
crazy episode of Relatable. It's brought to you by our friends at Good Ranchers. Go to

00:00:39.380
Hey guys, welcome to Relatable. Happy Tuesday. Hope everyone is having a wonderful week so far.
00:00:46.480
Yesterday we covered the Trump verdict. We were as thorough as we possibly could be in the short
00:00:52.380
amount of time that we had, and I try to keep every episode under an hour. As you know, I typically
00:00:58.640
fail at that. And yesterday we were also supposed to talk about Miss Rachel and some Pride Month
00:01:05.060
updates, and we were not able to even get into that. So we are going to dedicate today's episode
00:01:11.580
to all of that and do our best to give a biblical response to the craziness. My hope when we talk
00:01:17.860
about all the depravity that is on display, especially during Pride Month, but really all
0.79
00:01:23.360
the time, is to not leave you in a place of despairing for your child's future or your own
00:01:29.380
future. I don't want you to, in an episode like this, just feeling sad and feeling powerless and
00:01:35.700
feeling hopeless because no matter what, we're not hopeless. No matter what. I don't care how crazy
00:01:41.080
things go and how chaotic things get, we're not hopeless. We're not as people who have nothing
00:01:50.000
to look forward to. We have something to hang our hat on, and that is Jesus Christ and His sure
00:01:56.100
victory. And so we are going to give our biblical response to this, the exciting opportunity that we
00:02:02.300
have as the church to be a city on a hill, to be light in the darkness, to be salt that adds
00:02:10.200
preservation for good things and adds flavor to good things and to make an impact on the tiny spot
00:02:18.440
of eternity and the limited plot of universe that God has providentially placed us on. So we'll get
00:02:26.700
into a lot of this depravity and craziness, but just remember, we're going to come out of it and we are
00:02:32.400
going to be reminded of God's complete sovereignty and also our special opportunity as Christians in
00:02:38.640
such a dark age. But before we get into it, let me make a little announcement. This is for the
00:02:43.960
Related Bros and actually for the Related Gals with a Related Bro in their life in honor of Father's
00:02:50.060
Day, which is coming up in just a couple of weeks. We do have hats that are for the Related Bros.
0.63
00:02:55.460
Two different kinds of Related Bros we're appealing to here. So we've got the range leather hats,
00:03:00.880
and you see that if you're watching on YouTube on the outside there. And those are salmon,
00:03:06.160
and I don't have it in front of me right now, so you'll just have to look at the graphic.
00:03:09.840
And we've talked about before being a form of like human salmon. We are the ones that are swimming
00:03:15.440
upstream. We are doing the hard things of going against the current of our crazy culture. That
00:03:22.160
symbol of a salmon is just to remind us that even when it's difficult, even when we are swimming
00:03:26.660
upstream, even when it would be easier to turn around and just be like every other kind of fish,
00:03:32.460
that it is worth swimming upstream. And so we've got the little leather patches on the front of
00:03:38.700
those trucker hats. And then we have these hats, which are like flat bill hats. I don't know
00:03:44.240
how to describe the kind of guy, maybe a little bit trendier, more artistic guy, but do the next
00:03:51.780
right thing. They're on the front of these caps, which I really like. I'm going to be wearing these
00:03:55.780
myself. It's the acronym, do the next right thing. These are actually stitched on there.
00:04:00.440
So really high quality. I love these. We've got navy, we've got black and white. So we've got the
00:04:07.740
salmon, we've got the do the next right thing. It's kind of like, if you know, you know, kind of
00:04:12.260
deal. So that's for the Related Bro. Go to AllieMerch.com. You can also use code Allie10 for 10%

00:04:25.100
announcement, a couple other things before we get started. If you love this podcast, please leave us a
00:04:29.740
five-star review wherever you listen on Apple Podcasts. Make sure you subscribe to YouTube as
00:04:35.040
well and click the little bell so you get a notification every time we upload a video.
00:04:39.660
Also, the only other thing is, I was just going to say to my YouTube viewers, I forgot lipstick today.
00:04:44.520
I don't know if you guys can notice or not, but I typically wear lipstick, which is kind of
00:04:48.500
important when you're in front of all these lights on camera. You can feel washed out. Hopefully,
00:04:53.240
it does not assault your eyes so much. And you can get through this video without my lipstick on.
00:05:00.080
But some of you are so sleuthy out there that you always notice when something is different.
00:05:04.980
So if I look different today, it's because I forgot my lipstick. Okay, let's get into the craziness
00:05:10.200
that's going on. We got to talk about Miss Rachel. If you follow on Instagram, you already saw my
00:05:15.160
response to Miss Rachel and what she has said about Pride and how she bases her celebration of Pride
00:05:23.180
Month on her Christian faith. But I need to get into a lot more about Miss Rachel and her background
00:05:29.680
and who she is and all of the clues that we had about what she believes that have led up to her
00:05:36.220
announcement of her celebration of Pride. And some of you have no idea who Miss Rachel is. So I need
00:05:41.920
to fill you in on all of that and why this really matters. So if you don't know, Miss Rachel is an
00:05:49.500
extremely popular YouTube channel, or she has an extremely popular YouTube channel filled with
00:05:56.020
toddler and baby learning videos. She has over 10 million subscribers, which is just insane, incredible.
00:06:03.920
And this is not a personal attack on her at all. Like I want to give her credit where credit is due.
00:06:10.560
It is not easy to build a platform of that many faithful subscribers. And she has not just
00:06:18.860
subscribers, but raving fans, people who will go to bat for her. And that's because what she offers
00:06:24.420
is really unique. She's not just doing alphabet songs. You can kind of get that anywhere. She is
00:06:30.580
offering that, but she is also offering speech help to kids who need it. And that can be really tough.
00:06:37.880
Not everyone has the resources to access speech therapy. Some parents just really have trouble
00:06:45.280
teaching their kids to say their S's correctly, say their R's correctly, say their L's correctly,
00:06:50.400
those kind of common sounds that can trip kids up. And Miss Rachel is able to offer these resources
00:06:57.500
for free to kids who need it. And kids, if you've ever watched a child, watch a child, watch Miss Rachel,
00:07:04.760
you will see that she, just her demeanor, her tone of voice really captures a child's attention.
00:07:12.240
And for busy parents who maybe just need 30 minutes a day while they're making dinner,
00:07:17.360
they just need that, you know, peace and quiet for a little bit. Miss Rachel has really been a help
00:07:22.740
for them. And I would say mostly her content is edifying and educational. So that's how she has built
00:07:29.040
this incredible platform. Now, I know some of you out there, I've heard from you, you don't like her.
00:07:33.580
You've always seen, you know, some of you have said seen something off about her. You don't like
00:07:38.100
the content that she brings to the table. And that's fair. Of course, with every single person
00:07:42.560
out there, you're going to have differing opinions. I will say personally, we've never watched Miss
00:07:46.900
Rachel. And this was like, even before I knew anything about her that was progressive that I
00:07:52.740
don't agree with. We just never watched it. I don't know. There's never really been a particular
00:07:57.720
reason for it. I can't say that I saw any indication that I, you know, wouldn't like her,
00:08:02.720
that she's promoting bad values. We just never watched it. According to her YouTube channel,
00:08:07.440
she quote, uses techniques recommended by speech therapists and early childhood experts to help
00:08:12.500
children learn important milestones and preschool skills. She has a master's in music education from
00:08:20.860
NYU. She is also getting her master's right now, it says, in early childhood education. She has at
00:08:30.900
least one child. I don't know how many children she has, but I know she has at least one child
00:08:34.100
that struggled with speech himself. And I think that's kind of what inspired her to start this
00:08:40.140
channel. But I noticed, I think it was a couple years ago, maybe it was a year and a half ago,
00:08:45.580
that she, I started hearing about her and I started hearing about people promoting her a lot. I think I'd
00:08:52.400
heard of her before, but I didn't realize how popular she was getting. And as I was going through
00:08:57.260
some of her videos, just myself and looking through her Instagram page, I noticed the promotion of her
00:09:04.180
particular character or person in her videos that looked like they were trying to present themselves
00:09:12.700
as androgynous, which led me down a path to researching more of not only who Miss Rachel is,
00:09:19.200
but what she promotes and the team that she promotes and what their stance is on things like pronouns and
00:09:27.040
gender ideology. And what I found a couple years ago really surprised me, which is what inspired me to
00:09:33.260
talk about it way back then. But now, um, it has become a topic of conversation among conservatives
00:09:41.860
Okay, so before we back up into all of that, that, uh, kind of rabbit hole, I went down a couple years
00:10:00.980
ago, we'll start from the most recent in it, why we are even talking about Miss Rachel now, and then
00:10:07.860
we'll back up from there. Um, so Miss Rachel recently posted this video on her Instagram account at the
00:10:15.460
beginning of June, which is considered to the pagans pride month. Here is top five.
00:10:22.200
Pride to all of our wonderful families and friends this month. And every month I celebrate you. I'm so
00:10:30.280
glad you're here. I'm so glad you're exactly who you are. To those who are going to comment,
00:10:35.960
they can't watch the show anymore because of the support. No worries and much love your way.
00:10:41.000
God bless. I am not chasing fame or views. I'm standing strong in love.
00:10:48.160
Okay, so that was her initial post. And I guess she got some blowback from that. Most of the comments
00:10:53.920
that I saw in the video were very positive because a lot of people in the world are liberal. I mean,
00:11:00.580
there are literally parents, as we'll talk about in a few minutes, uh, who take their kids to drag
00:11:05.160
shows and think that they are teaching their children great values of inclusion and love rather
00:11:11.320
than perversion and depravity. I mean, it's a mentality that I can't understand, but a lot of
00:11:16.420
those parents exist. And then there are parents who aren't that extreme, but who simply believe that,
00:11:22.460
um, being LGBTQ so-called is who someone is. And therefore we need a month or several months out
1.00
00:11:31.880
of the year to celebrate people's sexual preferences. There's a lot of people, even those
00:11:38.080
who identify as Christian who align with that mentality. And Ms. Rachel calls herself a Christian
00:11:43.340
as well. And she actually says that it is her Christian faith that inspires her to celebrate
00:11:48.140
something like pride. Here's thought six. I've shared prayers on here before and said,
00:11:53.640
God bless. And that's because my faith is really important to me. And it's also one reason why I
00:11:59.800
love every neighbor. In Matthew 22, a religious teacher asked Jesus, what's the most important
00:12:06.360
commandment? And Jesus says to love God and to love your neighbor as yourself. All the law and the
00:12:12.440
prophets hang on these two commandments. There's no greater commandments than these. I believe it's
00:12:16.560
mentioned eight times. Love your neighbor. So yes, everyone belongs. Everyone's welcome. Everyone
00:12:21.600
is treated with empathy and respect. It doesn't say love every neighbor except. There are so many
00:12:27.640
reasons I stand strong in love. I stand with everyone. Look, I think that she is a sincere person. I think
00:12:36.900
that she is a very sweet seeming person. Obviously, I don't know her personally, but she seems genuine.
00:12:43.820
However, it is possible to be genuine and wrong. You can be genuinely wrong. It's possible to be
00:12:49.680
sincere and wrong and be sincerely wrong. And of course, that is where she stands when it comes to
00:12:57.000
an attempt at theologically defending, celebrating something like pride. Of course, pride comes before
00:13:03.600
destruction, but also celebrating pride in what God calls sin, what God calls destructive for the
00:13:13.600
body, soul, and mind. This is what I've referred to several times on this show as toxic empathy. It's
00:13:22.420
this idea that in order to truly love someone, you must not only place yourself in their position,
00:13:29.420
but you must affirm all of their feelings and therefore affirm and celebrate their sin. And this is not the
00:13:36.800
Christian definition of love. And I know I sound like a broken record because we've talked about this so
00:13:41.720
many times, but you never know who's listening to this or watching this who has never heard this
00:13:45.940
before. And the word of God is always worth repeating. Love is not defined by us. We hear the
00:13:53.420
circular mantra, love is love. Well, that doesn't mean anything. It's the same math. It's the same illogic
00:14:00.000
as trans women are women. Well, what is a woman? What is love? Love can't just be love. That means that
00:14:08.280
love could be anything. That means it could be lust. That means it could be stalking. That means it could
00:14:12.480
be some form of predation. It could just be a fleeting feeling. It could just be romance. If love
00:14:19.200
is love, then it really is just subjective. It's based on whatever we feel in the moment, which is not
00:14:26.620
really a comfort, by the way, and it's not really a stabilizing force. But if there is a transcendent
00:14:33.580
being who created love, then there is a being who defines love. And of course, that being is God
00:14:40.020
because 1 John 4, 8 tells us that God is love. We don't read that love is love. We don't read that
00:14:47.020
we are love. We read in 1 John 4, 8 that God is love. And if God is love, this is an incredible
00:14:53.840
statement when you think about it, that God is love, not just that he created it, not just that he defines
00:14:58.780
it, but that he is love. And of course, that also means that he defines it. And he is so gracious to
00:15:04.120
tell us exactly what it is. We get to read in 1 Corinthians 13 what love is. Love is patient.
00:15:12.140
It is kind. And there are many descriptors of love in that chapter. Love does not rejoice in wrongdoing,
00:15:19.980
but rejoices with the truth. So that is an important distinction from this secular,
00:15:29.140
mushy definition of love and toxic empathy and biblical love that is defined by the God who is
00:15:37.740
love and who created and defines it. That love does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth.
00:15:45.360
Homosexuality, according to the Bible, according to the creator of the universe who loves us so much
00:15:51.980
and made us in his image is wrongdoing. It is sin. And Romans 1, we read that so clearly that it's not
00:15:58.680
just the act that is sinful, but it is actually the desire that is also disordered. But thankfully,
00:16:07.000
we also read in 1 Corinthians 6 that there is redemption from that, that there is a salvation from
00:16:13.060
all forms of sin, but such were some of you, we read, but you were washed, you were sanctified,
00:16:20.480
you were justified by Jesus Christ, that the gospel is for you, no matter what your sin is,
00:16:26.200
no matter what your struggles are, no matter what your attraction is, that all of us are at one point
00:16:34.600
bound to our sin, slaves to our sin, following as Ephesians 2 says, the prince of the power of the air,
00:16:42.320
the spirit that is now at work right now in all the sons and daughters of disobedience.
00:16:47.620
But we in Christ can be made alive in him by the grace of God through faith in Christ. We can be
00:16:56.460
made alive. We can be made new. We can be made new creations. Apart from Christ, we are enemies of
00:17:02.380
God. But by grace through faith in Christ, we can be reconciled to a holy God. We can be made a son
00:17:09.900
and a daughter of God. We can be co-heirs of God's inheritance with Christ. We get the guarantee
00:17:16.940
of salvation of heaven forever. We get liberation and freedom from our sin right now. Yes and amen.
00:17:26.080
That is love. That is love. Not affirmation of the sin that is killing you. Not celebration of the sin
00:17:34.840
that is harming your body and your mind and your soul according to the God who created your body,
00:17:40.100
mind, and soul. So this form of so-called love that Miss Rachel is preaching, it sounds really good.
00:17:47.500
It even sounds good to me. Okay? Like, I'll admit that. If I did not, by the grace of God,
00:17:55.260
have the convictions that I have and know what I know about scripture and feel what I feel and believe
00:18:00.420
what I believe about the gospel, then this message that Miss Rachel preaches would sound really
00:18:06.760
attractive to me. Why? Because it's easy. And I like easy. I like convenient. I like comfortable.
00:18:13.560
I don't like to be swimming upstream. I don't like to be set against the world. I don't like to be
00:18:19.080
called a bigot. I don't like to be called these names. I don't like to be accused of not having
00:18:24.200
empathy or being hateful. I don't like that. I would so much rather be celebrated by the vast
00:18:31.220
majority of the world. I would so much rather get the applause of all of these people who claim
00:18:40.060
that being tolerant or celebrating sin is the highest virtue or this toxic empathy is the highest,
00:18:49.400
most transcendent value, most transcendent value, because that would be easier. That's what I want
00:18:53.340
in my flesh. And yet, I know and I understand that God's ways are better. They're harder in a lot of
00:19:05.040
ways, but they're better. They have an eternal reward that comes with them. But also, I have seen
00:19:14.700
the freedom and the joy and the satisfaction that Jesus brings when he rids us of the burden
00:19:22.460
of our sins and of our struggles. We have a way out of temptation. We have a way out of that enslavement
00:19:31.600
to sin. And that is love. You cannot say that you believe in the gospel, that Jesus has saved us from
00:19:40.420
our sin and also celebrate and affirm someone's sin. Like either you believe that Jesus died for our
00:19:47.400
sins or you do not. It can't be both. That's why it's really just impossible to have one foot in the
1.00
00:19:54.660
world and one foot out. And most people who deny the fundamental reality of male and female
00:20:00.920
and the definition of marriage as defined by the God who created us end up rejecting the gospel
00:20:08.700
altogether if she hasn't already. Like, I would be really surprised if Miss Rachel, who says that
00:20:15.120
she's a Christian, really believes, John 14, 6, that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, and that
00:20:20.520
no one comes to the Father except through him. That would be very surprising because, look, as we've
00:20:28.040
said many times, the definition of marriage is in the first chapter of the Bible. The definition of
00:20:34.420
gender is in the first chapter of the Bible. That's how important it was to God. That it's in the creation
00:20:40.080
story. So that we could not claim that these definitions change based on our feelings, based on
00:20:47.000
culture, based on societal whims, based on politics, based on what the law says, because it's rooted
00:20:54.000
in creation. It is pre-civilizational. It is pre-societal. It is pre-law. It is rooted in nature.
00:21:00.640
Genesis 1, 27 says that he made us, in his image, male and female. That is the first marriage. That
0.61
00:21:08.700
is the definition of what we are biologically. We get no option to identify as something other than
00:21:16.240
what we biologically are. Right there, he is telling us that our bodies have purpose, that our bodies
00:21:21.320
matter. He is telling us what our bodies can do, which is be fruitful and multiply. It's incredible how
00:21:28.860
many so-called culture war answers or questions are answered in that first chapter of the first book
00:21:35.240
of the Bible. How gracious is God that he has given us so much clarity on all of this confusion in the
00:21:43.720
first chapter. So when you deny something so fundamental, of course, you end up denying the
00:21:49.280
gospel. The gospel is much more controversial than biological reality than what we see in Genesis 1.
00:21:56.500
And so if you're going to deny that, which we can see through common grace, we can see with our
00:22:01.480
eyes, then of course you are going to deny what can really only be discerned through the Holy Spirit,
00:22:07.920
which is the gospel. So that's what ends up happening. And this is, of course, the only form
00:22:13.280
of Christianity that the world approves of because it is not really Christianity. It's just like
0.70
00:22:19.200
secular humanism with the few Bible verses thrown in and Jesus as its weak mascot. But that's not
00:22:27.760
Christianity. The Bible starts with a marriage, it ends with a marriage, and I'll just say the
0.97
00:22:32.240
alliteration really fast, in case Miss Rachel is listening. The definition of marriage is between
00:22:38.560
man and a woman, is rooted in creation, Genesis 1.27. It's reiterated throughout Scripture. For example,
00:22:43.700
Exodus 20.12, honor your father and mother. It's repeated by Jesus himself in Matthew 19.4-5.
00:22:50.540
It is representative of Christ in the church, Ephesians 5, and therefore it is reflective of
00:22:54.940
the gospel. The Bible starts with a marriage, it ends with a marriage, Christ and his bride,
00:23:00.240
the church. Christ is the bridegroom. The church is the bride. Earthly marriage between one man and
0.59
00:23:06.180
one woman is reflective of that. Two men can't reflect the relationship between the bridegroom and the
00:23:11.580
bride. Two women cannot. It is only one man and one woman that can do that. It's a spiritual,
1.00
00:23:19.180
eternal reality. It is a fundamental tenet of Christianity. It can't be messed with,
00:23:23.900
not to mention all of the implications for children that rearranging marriage and redefining
00:23:29.200
the family creates. Of course, you are creating forced fatherlessness, you're creating forced
00:23:35.560
motherlessness, the egg selling, the sperm selling, but really all manner of attempting to parent
00:23:43.220
children with two women or two men is robbing a child of their need for a father and a mother,
00:23:48.920
and that is cruel. So if you care about children, then you should care about what is going on there.
00:23:55.980
So that's my full response to Ms. Rachel. Now we actually are going to go into the rabbit hole of
00:24:01.640
who she is and what she has supported for a long time. All right. So Ms. Rachel's sidekick
00:24:18.280
is named Jules, and this is a woman who goes by they them. And actually, there is a video from a
00:24:31.620
stuffed animal in one of the educational videos that they have, and she actually refers to this
00:24:37.360
stuffed animal by they them pronouns. And also, if you go to Ms. Rachel's website, let me make sure
00:24:44.120
that this is still the case because this was the case when we first talked about it a while ago.
00:24:51.280
But on Ms. Rachel's website, if you go to their team member page, you will see that
00:25:00.860
all of the team members have their pronouns by their name. And actually, I'm looking right now
00:25:09.260
and I'm trying to find... Oh, yep. We still got it. So if you go to missrachel.com, you can go to
00:25:15.820
about us and you can go to the team. And Ms. Rachel has her pronouns. We've got everyone that has their
00:25:23.060
pronouns. Then you've got Jules, and you've got they them as the pronouns for this particular
00:25:31.140
individual. And why does it matter that they are stating their pronouns? And they state their
00:25:37.300
pronouns multiple times throughout their bios, which I just think is an odd choice. So why does
00:25:44.220
that matter? Should we even state our pronouns at all? This is a question that I've gotten many times
00:25:49.500
over the years. When you are stating your pronouns, you are assenting to the untrue, nonsensical idea
00:25:55.900
that your gender is something to be declared and chosen rather than something that is innate and
00:26:01.060
observed. So when you state your pronouns, you're assenting to the untrue idea that gender is something
00:26:09.220
to be announced, declared, chosen rather than something that is innate and observed. There may be
00:26:15.920
very few cases in which someone is truly, through no fault of their own, just like androgynous. And
00:26:23.080
those people are made in the image of God just as much as anyone else. And they can't control their
00:26:29.720
hormonal makeup. And maybe they really do need to say, actually, you know what? I am just a very tall,
00:26:37.320
muscular female. This is just who I am. But in every other case, it is not necessary for us to
00:26:45.820
declare our pronouns. Pronouns are representative of our biological reality. This idea that gender and
00:26:53.320
sex are two different things is not true. And I know that even people on the anti-trans ideology
00:27:00.480
side try to separate those two that say that gender is just made up, that it was created by John Money
00:27:06.780
and the queer theorists. And so we should never say gender. We should only say sex. But that's not true.
00:27:12.120
So the etymology of gender goes back hundreds and hundreds of years. It comes from the word genre.
00:27:18.180
Gender is just another category of human beings. So it's just a way of saying, like, this category is
00:27:23.800
a male human. This category is a female human. There's nothing wrong with saying gender. The truth
00:27:27.720
is gender and sex are interchangeable. They mean the same things. I remember the first time in college,
00:27:32.920
I had a professor who was a very androgynous professor, but I just thought she's an androgynous
1.00
00:27:38.060
woman. And she was. But I remember her saying in class that, well, gender and sex are two different
00:27:44.840
things. I think I used gender for something. And she tried to correct me on it and said, well,
00:27:48.740
actually, gender means it's different than sex. And I just looked at her and said, no, it's not.
00:27:55.760
They're synonyms. And she didn't say anything. That was back in the day. That was probably 2011
00:28:00.740
before people got the bravery that they have now. They feel so empowered to, like, push back against
00:28:07.840
that. I probably, like, would have failed my class if that had happened in 2020. But back then,
00:28:13.860
the teacher backed down because she was wrong. These two things are not different. They're not
00:28:20.740
separate. That was not created by a queer theorist. The idea of so-called gender identity was,
00:28:27.140
though. And as we have talked about, we'll link some of those episodes that we've done in the past.
00:28:31.600
The history of queer theory, of gender identity, of the idea that a man can become a woman by
00:28:38.500
declaration, that a woman can become a man by declaration, has very dark and perverse and
0.98
00:28:45.640
depraved and sexually just perverse roots. It is not grounded in any sort of love or truth or idea
00:29:00.000
of actual, true, healthy liberation. No, not at all. It is perverse. If you look at John Money and Alfred
00:29:08.000
Kenzie and many of the men and women who were writing the scholarly articles and the
00:29:15.580
academic papers about so-called gender identity at the time, they were pedophile apologists.
00:29:22.940
And this is not me just trying to use some kind of dog whistle. This is factually true.
00:29:28.580
And much of the gender ideology that we see today is also being pushed by pedophile apologists. WPATH,
00:29:39.360
the largest organization that offers the guidelines for so-called transition, even for minors, they
00:29:47.140
base much of their research on what they found in chat rooms run by pedophiles. And if you think that
00:29:54.360
that's some conspiracy theory, we will link the episode with Genevieve Gluck, the journalist who
00:29:59.160
did all of this research to uncover this. And a lot of the gender deception that we are seeing today
00:30:05.260
among men, it has nothing to do with thinking that they are women. It has nothing to do with the true
0.67
00:30:11.280
DSM-5 definition of gender dysphoria, of persistent, insistent, and consistent feeling like you are in
00:30:17.480
the wrong body as a young boy. That is very rare. It is existent, but it is very rare. It also doesn't
00:30:26.920
justify trying to transition their body or cross-ex hormones or anything, but that is a mental disorder
0.52
00:30:33.460
that does exist. But what we are seeing now, this explosion of teenage boys and men all of a sudden
00:30:40.300
announcing that they are the opposite sex, that has to do with sexual depravity, that has to do with
1.00
00:30:45.600
sexual perversion, that has to do in so many cases with an addiction to certain kinds of porn.
00:30:52.140
That's what it has to do with. It is a fetish, and they are going through this humiliation ritual
0.95
00:30:57.820
that they are forcing the public to participate in. I know that might sound harsh and surely sounds
00:31:04.640
unempathetic, but that's what's going on. So when you state your pronouns, when you call a man she,
00:31:10.440
you are not only lying, which is never loving, you are not only going against the design of their body
00:31:17.540
that God purposely and lovingly and providentially gave them, you are also contributing to this mad,
00:31:25.980
depraved social experiment, which is costing children their bodies. Children as young as 12,
00:31:35.060
young girls as young as 12, getting double mastectomies because they think that they are
00:31:39.400
the opposite sex. Again, if you think that's some conspiracy theory or some fear-mongering,
00:31:45.200
you can do the research for yourself. We've talked about it and cited our sources so many times
00:31:50.260
on this show. Doctors at Kaiser Permanente acknowledging that that is the youngest patient
00:31:57.380
that they have had. Oh my goodness, you're barely even developing at that point. Boys getting
00:32:05.360
chemically castrated. We've had detransitioners on this couch before who as minors started to transition.
1.00
00:32:12.400
Um, their bodies irreversibly damaged. Their fertility irreversibly damaged. Daisy Strongin,
1.00
00:32:20.160
who has two beautiful children now unable to breastfeed her children. And she is so sad about
00:32:27.540
that because of what adults in her life allowed her to do to her body at such a young age. And I mean,
00:32:36.140
like, where's the recompense for all of that? And you know what started these young people on the
00:32:43.220
path to so-called transition? I say so-called because you can't actually transition your sex.
00:32:48.780
Um, social affirmation, the declaration of pronouns, using their new chosen name, using their new chosen
00:32:56.440
pronouns. There is a form of euphoria, a form of excitement. You get a new kind of attention. You have a
00:33:03.780
new identity. You have a new self. For some boys, it is, um, sexually exciting. For most girls that I
00:33:11.180
know that transitioned, it was actually because, uh, they were sexualized at an early age and they
00:33:18.320
blamed their femininity and their feminine body, uh, for being sexualized. And so that's why they
0.99
00:33:24.820
decided to take testosterone. So when you declare pronouns, especially something like they, them,
00:33:31.000
which is just grammatically and physically impossible, that's what you're assenting to.
00:33:35.200
She claims to care about children. This entire movement harms children in the biggest ways,
00:33:40.600
the most fundamental ways, physical, emotional ways. So it's just not possible to truly love
00:33:49.180
children in the true sense and also promote this kind of ideology. Now, this person named Jules,
00:33:55.700
um, this is according to Matt Walsh. He uncovered this, um, also was a part of this pride jam where
00:34:06.320
kids were invited, queer fam pride jam, um, that was supposed to be family friendly. So let me read
00:34:13.500
you some of his thread. He said a day after Ms. Rachel told her audience, she didn't care if they
00:34:18.080
opposed her pride post, which is what she said in so many words, her sidekick, a they, them named Jules
0.59
00:34:23.600
performed at the queer fam pride jam. The event was advertised as family friendly. It wasn't here is
00:34:31.300
thought one. Hey, Chicago, it's Jules here, and I'm going to be playing on June 2nd at Millennium
00:34:38.380
Park for pride jam. I really can't wait to hang out with you and your littles. So please RSVP and get
00:34:45.140
your free tickets right now. Okay. See you soon, Chicago. Bye. Okay. So there she is.
1.00
00:34:53.440
It's inviting her littles or littles, your littles to this pride jam event. Again, this is someone who
0.75
00:35:01.520
works with Ms. Rachel. So she collaborates and makes songs with Ms. Rachel. She identifies as a
00:35:07.120
white non-binary trans mask human. She is just a woman. You can tell, um, she claims that as a two
0.83
00:35:14.060
year old, she realized something's not right with her body. At 12, a teacher exposed her to gender
00:35:18.460
ideology, which is just so sad. That is a form of grooming. It is. It is. It's such a shame that no
00:35:25.660
one told her, Hey, like, it's okay to be a girl and to be a woman who doesn't like all traditionally
00:35:34.240
feminine things. It doesn't mean you're trans mask. It doesn't mean you're non-binary, which is just,
00:35:38.660
it's not real. There's no such thing as truly non-binary. And instead she was apparently
0.93
00:35:45.780
introduced to gender ideology. Um, her performance of songs about crabs, caterpillars, butterflies,
00:35:53.360
the children. Um, okay. So she performed that song at this fam or pride fam jam event about crabs,
00:36:02.000
caterpillars, and butterflies. And then right after that, the children were subjected to a grown man
00:36:06.380
in a skin tight leopard print onesie with heels, shaking his body around while collecting a dollar
00:36:13.540
Now I know that there's going to be some crazy people out there who are like, what's wrong with
00:36:37.620
that? That was innocent. What? What? I mean, you saw this person like leaning back, dancing to
00:36:45.820
Spice Girls, collecting money from children, and you will still have insane people out there being
00:36:50.720
like, what? What's the deal? Look, there is no innocent way for a man to dress up as a woman and
1.00
00:36:56.080
dance in front of children. Okay. There's no innocuous reason for that ever. There is no pure
00:37:04.060
motivation for a man to want to dress up as a woman. We can stop there. But especially there's
0.54
00:37:11.320
no pure motivation for a man to dress up as a woman and dance in front of children. There's no
0.96
00:37:14.740
reason for that. I've seen a meme going around recently and it's like, why don't they ever want
00:37:18.720
to dance at nursing homes? Why don't they ever want to like read books to sick people in the
0.84
00:37:24.960
hospital? Why is it only kids? Hmm. Why is it only children's library sections? Why is it only
00:37:33.000
kindergarten classes that they want to go in their tight leotards and their fishnet heels and their
0.98
00:37:39.560
fake boobs and their, uh, or the fishnet tights and their, uh, high heels and their fake boobs and
1.00
00:37:46.720
their bra sticking out? Like, why is it only children that they want to interact with as well
0.99
00:37:53.440
they're dressed up as that? If you don't think there's something wrong with this and there is
00:37:56.780
something wrong with you. Okay. And it might be really difficult to reckon with that. It might be
00:38:02.400
really difficult to take a deep breath and really just let yourself think, is it right to force my
00:38:09.600
children to watch a grown man dressed up as a woman shaking his body or dressed up as a woman at all?
00:38:15.560
Like, is that right? Is that helpful? Is that edifying to them? Or does this sow confusion in
00:38:20.060
my child? Or just think about this. Is there something better for them to watch? Is there something
00:38:25.560
more edifying for them to watch? And I know most of my audience, you don't need to be preached to
00:38:29.620
about this because you just instinctively know, but there are some people out there even who call
00:38:35.540
themselves Christians who love Miss Rachel and love this kind of stuff and just don't think
00:38:39.740
that it's harmful. Look, I've said this many times before, but kids naturally put things
00:38:45.140
into categories. And as a mom of three young children, I see this. You don't have to be a
00:38:51.320
psychologist. You don't have to be a child therapist. You don't have to have your master's
00:38:55.400
in early childhood education to realize this. From a very early age, they are seeing distinctions.
00:39:01.540
They are making categories because the entire world is really big and new to them, right?
00:39:05.720
And so they're trying to make things simpler. They're trying to make things smaller. They're
00:39:09.640
trying to understand everything that's going on. And so not only are they figuring out locations,
00:39:15.240
figuring out day and night, figuring out outside inside, figuring out what's okay to eat and what's
00:39:21.240
you're not supposed to eat and you're just supposed to play with. And then they're also
00:39:25.880
figuring out gender distinctions. Oh, that's a mommy. That's a daddy. Does that mommy have a baby
0.85
00:39:31.700
in her belly? Like they're always asking these questions. Oh, this is Grammy. This is Papa.
00:39:37.460
That's an uncle. That's an aunt. I'm a girl. That's a boy. They are figuring that out really without any
00:39:43.980
instruction. They're just trying to make sense of their world. And so you see how important it is
00:39:49.220
for us as parents to offer our children clarity when everything is chaotic and confusing to them
00:39:56.560
to affirm the distinctions that they see. And yes, are there nuances that they will learn?
00:40:04.840
Yes, of course. From an early age, they might say only girls wear pink and only boys wear blue.
00:40:10.460
And that is generally true. But just because a boy wears pink one day or purple one day doesn't mean
00:40:17.000
that he's a girl or doesn't mean that he's not masculine, they will learn that. You don't need
00:40:20.600
to teach that to them when they're two and three. They'll figure that out. It's okay for them to see
00:40:24.500
things in black and white. It's okay for them to create these categories. That doesn't mean that
00:40:29.060
they're unloving. That doesn't mean that they're going to go out and hurt people's feelings, which by
00:40:32.820
the way, kids hurt people's feelings all the time. My child asks me when I'm going to have a flat tummy
0.57
00:40:37.760
again and you just have to take it into stride. And so it's okay. You don't have to worry so much
00:40:43.220
about them, like figuring out all of the nuances of everything. It's okay for them to have these
00:40:49.060
categories and to offer them clarity. Sowing confusion in the name of tolerance into our
00:40:55.000
children is cruel. It's cruel. It's wrong. It messes with their development. It also messes with their
00:41:00.660
sense of self. No wonder so many kids are struggling today with mental instability. And then what did these
00:41:06.300
children get? What did these parents do? These very loving and affirming parents, they send their kid to a
00:41:12.320
child therapist and put them on medication when they're seven years old. And then that just causes the
00:41:16.880
whole cycle. It's awful. This is what toxic empathy does to people. And I'm sorry, but Miss Rachel is
00:41:22.560
playing a part in all of this. Matt Walsh also reveals more about Jules. He says, when Jules created
00:41:32.420
music for power to the queer children, it donated 100% of the proceeds to the Trevor Project. And the Trevor
0.74
00:41:40.220
Project, according to the New York Post, hosted chat rooms, Trevor Project is awful. It's hosted chat
00:41:46.420
rooms where minors talk with adults about graphic sexual fetishes and masturbation in the name of
00:41:53.120
helping gender affirming care. I'm not saying Miss Rachel would overtly support that. She probably
0.99
00:42:01.240
wouldn't. But she needs to know what she is helping promote. She is drawing people to this Jules
00:42:08.160
person who is then promoting all of this kind of sexual perversion and depravity. Miss Rachel also
1.00
00:42:14.480
has a connection to Dylan Mulvaney. So this is kind of circulating again as a new story. And so people
00:42:32.880
might have thought that this was recent, but this actually happened in February of 2023. We talked
00:42:37.800
about it at the time. I think we talked about it on the show, but I can't find the episode. I'm almost
00:42:43.360
positive that we did, but I at least talked about it on Instagram because it was so crazy. And people
00:42:48.580
got really mad when we talked about it. Like I was like attacking her, asking people to bully her.
00:42:53.940
That's also a manipulation tactic. Just because you announce your disagreement about something,
00:42:58.160
when someone does something publicly and then you say publicly, that's not right. That's not asking
00:43:02.980
people to bully someone. That's not asking for hate. Not at all. Unless you are explicitly doing
00:43:08.400
that, asking for hate, asking for an attack, you're not asking for that. I'm explicitly asking you not
00:43:13.420
to. Do not bully these people. But we are allowed to disagree and state our disagreement, especially when
00:43:18.580
it's harmful to kids. So last year, during Dylan Mulvaney's days of girlhood, you know Dylan Mulvaney as the
00:43:25.880
man who has gone viral for his days of girlhood, which he chronicles on TikTok becoming a girl or
00:43:33.160
like his first days of being a girl. Now this is a grown man, grown man with a five o'clock shadow
00:43:39.760
calling himself a girl. Okay. And many of his depictions of being a girl are like being a
00:43:48.460
caricature of a six-year-old girl. And we're all celebrating this. He's going to get the brand deal.
00:43:53.240
She's going to go viral. And he's also going to get Miss Rachel commenting this on one of his
00:43:58.680
videos. Sometime when you're in NYC, you should be on our show, Songs for Littles. We love you
00:44:04.180
and your singing. Now, I would guess that Miss Rachel realized after this comment that that probably
00:44:11.700
would not be a good idea. That probably would not be a good idea. She can say all she wants to,
00:44:16.400
that she does not care if conservative women, conservative moms leave her audience. I bet she
0.99
00:44:23.620
cares just a little bit. Now, maybe she'll prove me wrong. Maybe she will have Dylan Mulvaney on. I
00:44:28.120
promise you that will be a bridge too far for a lot of moms who don't even consider themselves
0.82
00:44:33.400
Christian or conservative. Now, for some moms, like the ones that I was talking about earlier,
00:44:38.960
that will be great. They'll love seeing their child looking up to a man who dresses like a little
00:44:45.360
girl. They'll think that that's awesome. But even for the politically independent and some secular
00:44:51.760
people, they'll say, I think there maybe were other talented people out there that Miss Rachel
00:44:58.600
could have chosen to be a guest on her videos and not Dylan Mulvaney. I mean, that's a choice. Again,
00:45:04.740
assenting to the movement that has just wrought so much destruction on so many people. So that is who
00:45:12.860
Miss Rachel is. Now, am I saying that you can't ever watch Miss Rachel or that you can't ever listen
00:45:22.880
to her stuff? I mean, that's up to you. That's up to you. You could think, well, I'm going to keep
00:45:30.060
doing it because me leaving is not going to make a difference. But it's not just about that. It's kind
00:45:36.380
of like with Target, right? We know that Target is a huge corporation. And us boycotting Target,
00:45:42.900
which I have for, I believe, three years now. I have not gone to Target because they started selling
00:45:49.260
chest binders and packing underwear and bathing suits. That was just a bridge too far for me.
00:45:56.800
They could bounce back. Maybe they don't need the however many of us who decided to boycott,
00:46:04.560
and they could stay afloat. But it's not just about that. It's not just about making a difference
00:46:11.140
and making them reverse course, which, by the way, they did a little bit. Not a lot, but they said
00:46:15.600
that they were going to reduce their pride displays for fear of blowback, which, yay. And the Bud Light
00:46:21.580
did the same thing. But it's also just about making better choices ourselves. Now, I've also said many
00:46:28.600
times, I am not perfect at the boycotting thing at all. At all. I do not shop in complete alignment
00:46:37.400
or consume in complete alignment with my values. One would say that it is impossible to do that,
00:46:45.120
maybe, unless you just entirely lived off the land and made your own clothes. But I could do better.
00:46:53.040
It's not like I have to get all of the things that I get. I still use Amazon, for example.
00:47:02.100
And these are also companies that promote terrible things. And so I'm right there with you. I'm right
00:47:08.260
there with you and not being perfect in that. I am a lot more thoughtful than I used to be.
00:47:14.580
I don't buy clothes all the same places that I used to buy clothes.
00:47:17.500
I don't shop everywhere that I used to shop for a variety of things. And some places I just skip out
00:47:26.380
on in the month of June because I know that they are going to be directly and openly promoting all
00:47:34.240
of this depravity. But Target, for me, the reason why I did that is because, one, I was spending too
00:47:41.800
much money there anyway, getting things that I didn't really need. And so a disproportionate and
00:47:48.020
an unnecessary amount of my money was supporting Target, who relies on people like you and me.
00:47:55.820
They rely on the Christian suburban mom. We are their biggest consumer base. We are their biggest
00:48:03.740
demographic. And for me, I just said, you know what? This is a matter of discipline. This is a step
00:48:11.240
into living in alignment with my values. And that is the step that I'm going to take. And I have to
00:48:18.400
say, it feels really good to stop spending money somewhere that you just don't need to shop at and
00:48:25.280
really just hates us. They really just hate us and hate what we believe. And again, it was the selling
00:48:32.560
of the compression tops to young people and the packing underwear and the packing, packing, if you
00:48:40.420
don't even know what that means. I don't even know if I want to say what it is. But also the
00:48:47.200
like, not even just like packing bathing suits, but also the compressing bathing suits. All of these
00:48:53.780
things are different items for boys and girls trying to look like the opposite sex. All of this clearly
1.00
00:48:59.340
targeted to kids. That, for me, was like, no, it's too far. Now, Walmart also sells Pride stuff.
00:49:06.160
Obviously, a lot of these corporations do. Although I will say I've seen fewer celebrations
00:49:13.560
of Pride from some of these corporations this year, which is good. I think keep pushing. I saw a poll
00:49:19.800
recently that said that support actually for gay quote unquote marriage is down for the first time in
00:49:27.640
years, which is interesting. I really think that it's because of the craziness of gender ideology
0.97
00:49:33.540
that it's forced people to back up and ask, wait, wait, wait, how did we get here? Oh, we got here
00:49:40.580
when we denied the differences between the sexes. When we said, oh yeah, two men together is the same
0.91
00:49:48.340
thing as two women together. And you're denying the differences between the sexes in the case of
00:49:55.320
marriage. And of course, that helped build upon the foundation that I think progressive ideology has
00:50:02.560
been pushing for years and years and years, which is that men and women are just interchangeable,
00:50:07.760
that there's no biological innate differences between us. So it goes back a long way, but it
00:50:13.940
certainly made people go back to Obergefell and say, oh gosh, things have changed a lot since 2015
00:50:20.640
so quickly. How do we back all the way up? And also, as we're seeing the horrors of things like
00:50:26.660
surrogacy, it's really making people think a little bit harder about all of this. So keep going.
00:50:30.880
Keep speaking the truth in love. Keep being bold. Keep refusing to assent to their absolute madness.
00:50:39.700
We also got some other toddler experts like Big Little Feelings. They posted encouraging someone to
00:50:48.680
be entirely themselves as the loudest way to love them. And of course, this is a pride post.
00:50:55.100
And what they're trying to say is just affirm, affirm, affirm. But we know, those of us who
00:51:01.480
worship the God who is loved, that that is not the best way to love someone. Again, this is toxic
00:51:07.120
empathy. It's a form of manipulation that tells you that the only way to love someone is to affirm
00:51:13.960
them. It also pushes this lie that what your attractions are and what your sexual feelings are,
00:51:20.040
are who you are, that they define you, that they are your identity. And that is not true.
00:51:26.940
And that's freeing good news. That what you feel, what your attractions are, don't get to tell you
00:51:32.560
who you are. They're not the boss of you. They're not the core to your identity. You are not enslaved to
00:51:39.580
them. And that's amazing. And that is really, really great news, that we are not a slave to our
00:51:48.980
emotions and our feelings, that we can actually look at our biology. We can see our telos, which is
00:51:54.180
our purpose, and we can see what we are made for. And the truth is, all Christians, no matter what your
00:52:00.140
sin struggle is, we are all called to self-control. All of us. We are all called to walk in faith.
00:52:07.180
We are all on a journey of sanctification. And we are all called to glorify Christ in everything we
00:52:14.560
think, say, and do. We are all called away from lust. We are all called away from just giving in
00:52:20.940
to our flesh. That's not to say that all struggles and all sin are exactly the same. They don't all
00:52:28.240
manifest themselves in the same way. Some, I think, are more difficult to battle against than others
00:52:34.100
in some ways. But we are all in a struggle against sin that is empowered by the Holy Spirit. And we are
00:52:40.960
all looking forward to the day when we are made completely new, and we no longer have to be
00:52:47.640
tempted, and we no longer struggle with sin. But until then, we are all working out our salvation
00:52:53.120
with fear and trembling. And that is the good news. That is the loudest way to love someone is to tell
00:53:00.000
them that good news. Sesame Street, they've got their post up. Happy Pride Month from Sesame Street.
0.87
00:53:08.880
I just fail to understand why it is important to talk to kids about people's sexual preferences.
00:53:18.380
I mean, I do understand. I do understand because it's predatory. But I fail to understand even how
00:53:25.800
they present some kind of PR reason for it. And so they've got their rainbow flag. Remember,
00:53:35.040
if we can find it, it was like an airline, maybe a Swedish airline or something. And they had like
00:53:42.380
the three seatbelts for you know what I'm talking about. And it was like, it doesn't matter who you
00:53:47.940
click with. And it was like, it was like two ends of the same or like two of the same ends of the seat
00:53:55.480
belt. And then two of the same ends of the other side of the seat belt. And then the seat belt with
00:54:02.600
the only like the ends that actually click together. And it ended up going viral as this
00:54:09.240
horrible example of pride because it's like, but only one works. Only one works. Those two ends of
00:54:18.060
the seat belt don't work. Those two ends of the seat belt don't work. The only kind that works is
00:54:23.360
when you put the proper ends of the seat belts together. Sorry, that's a little bit graphic,
00:54:27.420
even though like we're just implying something. But that's part of this whole thing, right? Is that
00:54:32.640
only one actually works. And they thought that they were being so clever. Well, Walmart is giving
00:54:40.060
Target, as we mentioned. Here is their cool ad, Sot3.
00:54:47.880
Queer people have magic that we can share. We're lucky enough to be in the Walmart pride collection
00:54:54.500
this year. What'll dream come true? It's not every day that I see my products in a Walmart.
00:54:59.820
It's important to me to share my art. No one can make the art that you make. No one can say the
00:55:05.400
things the way you say them. There's a lot of opportunity to uplift with a bit of playfulness
00:55:10.640
and imperfection. The world needs to hear what you have to say and your story.
00:55:15.600
No. There's a reason why they didn't let this person talk. This person that you see right here,
00:55:26.740
there is a reason that he was not showcased in this ad very much because it is very scary.
00:55:34.960
Um, we've got, uh, Anna Parade, the pink mohawk girl that you saw. Of course, if you go to her
00:55:43.540
Instagram, it features mostly naked pictures of herself, along with paintings and drawing of,
0.96
00:55:51.160
uh, bare breasts. We will not link her Instagram for obvious reasons. And she's got a sticker that
0.96
00:55:57.840
she created, um, that says abortion on it. Uh, Walmart also has a thousand plus items in their
00:56:05.380
pride and their pride collection. One says drag is not a crime. I also think it's a good question
1.00
00:56:11.100
to ask, like why all pride stuff is in colors that are attractive to children, like in these rainbow
00:56:19.120
colors. Um, just some more examples of the craziness we've got going on. A call of duty offers
00:56:25.300
transgender bullets as part of downloadable pride month pack, as well as bisexual, pansexual and
00:56:35.240
asexual colors for guns. Why? Why? That's so weird. So weird. Um, well, some of the comments in
00:56:48.360
response to these trans themed bullets on Reddit were disturbing. Not surprising. This is another part of
1.00
00:56:54.400
this peaceful, loving community that is, uh, very often pushed down, uh, by the mainstream media.
00:57:02.480
Here's one comment, bro. I would love to blow a bigot's head off with trans bullets, uh, ranged estrogen
1.00
00:57:10.000
injection. I've transitioned you to dead kill the haters with gay bullets going to cause some gender
1.00
00:57:16.640
issues with well-placed round tonight in the family jewels with these rounds and a few chuds. What
1.00
00:57:23.140
you could actually attack bigots in the game with pride ammo now. Um, all right. Again, uh, very
00:57:31.620
disturbing considering how many shooters recently, how many mass shooters have identified as transgender.
00:57:39.920
And this of course is not surprising. Putting your body on cross-sex hormones, um, radicalizing you
0.92
00:57:45.460
with a very depraved and awful ideology, of course, is going to inspire violence and people who very
00:57:52.420
often have comorbidities anyway, and were already unstable before they started the transition process.
00:57:58.020
The Lakewood church shooter identified as trans, uh, transgender, the covenant school shooter identified
00:58:03.460
as transgender, the Denver school shooter, the Aberdeen mass shooter. These are all people
00:58:08.180
who identified, um, as transgender. So for call of duty to basically inspire this and encourage this
00:58:15.780
and help them act out their fantasies, at least in a virtual way, of course is extremely dangerous and
00:58:23.780
awful, but this all just goes to show like what pride is and how destructive, um, it can be. Uh,
00:58:31.780
we've also got the publica. This is an outlet. They reported an LGBTQ charity penned a tribute to gay
00:58:38.500
rights pioneer who claimed that pedophiles were being oppressed. So this is a project that is
00:58:46.140
featuring an uncritical tribute to the co-founder of one of the most notorious pro, uh, most notorious pro
00:58:53.300
pederasty groups in the world. This is the LGBTQ history project. Um, it's incorporated as a
0.97
00:59:01.580
tax exempt organization. The LGBTQ history project is run by August Bernadikau, who started recording
00:59:08.860
interviews with the pioneers of the gay movement when he was just 13 years old. And so this project
00:59:17.500
has a list of people considered heroes in the LGBTQ movement. And one of the people highlighted
00:59:22.380
is David Thorstad, the co-founder of the North American Man Boy Love Association, also known as NAMBLA,
00:59:29.020
and a former member of the Trotsky Socialist Workers Party. So on the LGBTQ history projects page for
00:59:37.680
Thorstad, he is described as fighting to limit oppression based on sexual preferences. This is
00:59:43.680
where love is love goes. It's where it has always been going. Is that to say that all people who are
00:59:50.780
gay are pedophiles? No, not even most. I'm not saying that I'm saying this is the foundation of the
0.97
00:59:57.120
movement. This is what happens when you lose all the parameters around sexuality. You open the door
01:00:03.020
to this kind of perversion. Under Thorstad's leadership, NAMBLA lobbied to abolish the age of
01:00:09.240
consent laws and fought to free men who had been convicted of the statutory rape of children from
01:00:15.180
prison. Thorstad was among the NAMBLA executives named as defendants in the infamous Curly v. NAMBLA
01:00:23.280
litigation in which the organization was represented by the ACLU. The lawsuit was launched in 2000 by the
01:00:31.180
family of a 10-year-old boy who had been raped and murdered by two pedophiles. Thorstad wrote a
01:00:39.740
pamphlet titled Boys Speak on Boy Love. So again, this comes from Alfred Kinsey. This comes from John
01:00:49.200
money. I mean, it doesn't come from them. Of course, pedophilia has always existed. This is where
01:00:55.320
Christians stepped in in the pagan world 2000 years ago and said, nope, nope, nope, no more child
1.00
01:01:02.060
exploitation and really changed how the world saw children. It's still our responsibility to this day.
01:01:08.980
And we need to realize that within the LGBTQ movement is the idea that any sexual preference
01:01:16.540
is fine and qualifies as love and that just as being a woman or being a man is a state of mind,
01:01:25.480
so is being a child or adult. Understand that all these things go together. That's why it's not a
01:01:30.460
coincidence that you see so much overlap, unfortunately, between these two ideologies.
01:01:36.160
But thankfully, our federal government is in support of all of this, which we will end the episode talking
01:01:42.360
about that. All right, we've got our Department of State. We've got the State Department
01:01:58.020
posting the Pride Progress flag saying that LGBTQI plus persons in many countries continue to face grave
01:02:07.820
danger. So we've got to protect the spirit of pride and promote respect for the human rights of
01:02:12.340
LGBTQI persons. It's central to the work we do. Central. Central. Do you know what central means?
01:02:18.700
It's central to the work of the State Department to make sure that everyone around the world who
01:02:23.840
likes to have sex with the same sex that they have their quote unquote rights defended. What that means
0.88
01:02:29.420
is a form of colonialism and imperialism that the left actually likes. It means the United States
01:02:34.740
blackmailing poor countries into promoting LGBTQ laws and issues by saying, well, if you,
0.64
01:02:42.340
promote this depravity, then we will give you more aid. But if you don't, we will take our aid
01:02:48.000
away. That's a practice that the United States implements, has implemented and uses in many poor
01:02:55.480
countries, not just when it comes to LGBTQ laws, but also abortion. Biden's State Department spending
01:03:00.560
millions on foreign LGBTQ events as Pride Month begins. According to the Daily Signal, the State
01:03:06.620
Department is funding an array of LGBTQ Pride events across the globe ahead of June, including
01:03:12.960
in countries that don't want anything to do with this. But the United States is saying, oh, you must.
01:03:18.980
A 2022 LGBTQ film festival the State Department funded in Portugal included films depicting incest and
01:03:24.620
pedophilia. Wow. What do you know? Just one of those coincidences again. Funding pro-LGBTQ events and
0.62
01:03:33.960
organizations abroad has become commonplace in Biden's State Department. Under Biden, the department
01:03:38.580
has paid to support queer Muslim writers in India, all two of them, funded ballroom dancing to uplift
0.65
01:03:47.660
trans... What? Funded ballroom dancing to uplift transgender youth in Peru. It's important. That's
01:03:56.700
your tax dollars. Shelled out hundreds of thousands of dollars on programs for LGBTQ refugees
01:04:02.540
in Latin America. Spent taxpayer dollars on theatrical productions in an attempt to teach Africans about
1.00
01:04:10.020
LGBTQ rights. And they stood up and threw their spears at them, as they should. The Department of
1.00
01:04:18.220
Defense Pride Month is a time to come together to honor the contribution to the LGBTQ plus service members.
01:04:24.420
No thanks. National Security Agency, our favorite. Our theme this Pride Month is pride in progress,
0.97
01:04:33.820
recognizes that true progress is a journey. We are dedicated to creating a workplace where members
01:04:38.380
of the LGBTQIA plus community can thrive authentically and bring their whole selves to work. No one needs to
1.00
01:04:45.480
bring their whole self to work. At most, I want like a third of you at work. Just your best self.
01:04:52.540
I don't need... We don't need to know your whole self. We don't need to know all of that. No one needs
01:04:59.480
to bring your whole self to work at all. Just bring the part that's relevant to the job that you have to
01:05:04.260
do, please, and thank you. Is that too much to ask? I don't think so. So when you pair all of this,
01:05:12.420
the absolute takeover of all of these institutions, the most powerful institutions in the world,
01:05:19.320
but particularly in the United States, with what just happened to Trump, as we talked about yesterday,
01:05:25.360
finding a crime to fit the man that you want to put behind bars, it's a little scary.
01:05:34.740
It's a little scary for the Christian. It's a little scary for those of us who participate in a faith
0.59
01:05:42.120
that makes necessary evangelism and speaking. We are not to put the flame, put our candle under a
01:05:56.380
basket, but we are supposed to be seen. We are supposed to be heard. We are not a religion that
01:06:01.860
minds its own business very well. We are a religion that makes change. And that also
01:06:07.960
preaches the gospel to change hearts, to then have a societal and cultural effect. We worship
01:06:14.520
the word made flesh. We are to go and make disciples of all nations. And you know, I saw this thread.
01:06:20.800
I know this is yet again another long episode, but it's encouraging, actually. It was a thread by
01:06:25.920
a liberal. I don't think I've talked about it yet on the show. Have I? I don't know. But it was
01:06:31.580
basically talking about the history of San Francisco. How did San Francisco become gay? How did it become
0.91
01:06:36.580
like this gay hub? And it talked about like the men who made their way there without any women. And it
01:06:42.420
just kind of started happening. And there was tons of depravity at the end of the 19th century. Just a
01:06:48.040
lot of gayness already happening there. Well, then these floods basically leveled San Francisco,
0.99
01:06:54.400
ruined San Francisco. And in order to help San Francisco rebuild, who moved into San Francisco
01:07:00.180
at the beginning of the 20th century, churches. And when churches came along, and they started
01:07:07.260
rebuilding the city, they said, no more of that stuff. No more of that sexual perversion. No more
0.75
01:07:12.300
of that depravity. And so actually, for a while there, as San Francisco was able to rebuild, and as it
01:07:19.220
was able to become this great, big, beautiful, productive, innovative city, it was also moral. It was also
01:07:28.680
Christian in nature because the Christians there actually implemented laws that said, no more of
01:07:33.700
that. And so it just reminded me of what Christianity has been, should be, and could be. Like, I know that
01:07:42.600
today it's so scary when Christians say, oh yeah, we want to use our worldview to influence laws. It

shouldn't be scary. That's what everyone does with every worldview, with every vote. They are implementing
01:07:55.820
their worldview into their politics and trying to inform the law based on what they believe. Christians
01:08:00.860
are called to do the same. And when Christians do it, good things happen. Order happens. Productivity

01:08:06.520
happens. And so Christians, do not be afraid to infuse your worldview in your workplace, on the school

01:08:13.040
board, in politics, in the public sphere, of course, with your family. Like, you get to show up with
01:08:21.860
your worldview just as much as everyone else does. And while we still have some semblance of free
01:08:26.240
speech and freedom of religion, we have to do that. That is actually a way to love our neighbor,
01:08:31.540
is to be agents of God's order in everything that we think, say, and do. And let me just remind you,
01:08:38.860
we haven't gone to this chapter in a while, but it's a good reminder in this Pride Month that this is our
01:08:45.960
ultimate hope. This is our ultimate solace. And it's Psalm 37. Go read the whole chapter when you
01:08:50.980
can in your free time. Fret not yourself because of evildoers. Be not envious of wrongdoers, for they
01:08:56.700
will soon fade like the grass and wither like the green herb. Trust in the Lord and do good. Dwell in
01:09:02.920
the land. Befriend faithfulness. Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your
01:09:08.180
heart. Commit your way to the Lord. Trust in him, and he will act. He will bring forth your
01:09:12.880
righteousness as light. Your justice as the noon day. Going on to verse 10. In just a little while,
01:09:19.180
the wicked will be no more. Though you look carefully at his place, he will not be there.
01:09:23.240
But the meek shall inherit the land and delight themselves in abundant peace. The wicked will
01:09:28.680
perish. The enemies of the Lord are like the glory of the pastures. They vanish like smoke. They vanish
01:09:34.380
away. Wait for the Lord and keep his way. He will exalt you to inherit the land. You will look
01:09:42.540
on when the wicked are cut off. The salvation of the righteous is from the Lord. He is their
01:09:49.280
stronghold in the time of trouble. The Lord helps them and delivers them. He delivers them from the
01:09:53.580
wicked and saves them because they take refuge in him. That is who we worship. That is our hope. That
01:10:00.400
is our strength. And remember, the joy of the Lord is our strength. We are not winning people to
01:10:06.480
Christ by constantly being sad and morose and discouraged by the state of the world. It's
01:10:13.300
normal and okay to feel that discouragement, I think, and to feel our sadness. But really,
01:10:18.400
we can lay those concerns at the Lord's feet. And he promises to give us the peace that passes
01:10:23.240
all understanding. And in a world that is so turbulent, that peace is really attractive. So
01:10:28.680
may our peace, may our joy, may our clarity, may our truth, may our boldness continue to be a
01:10:33.280
testimony. And may the Lord use those things to win people to Christ, even in a month as depraved
01:10:39.020
and crazy as Pride Month. All right, that's all we got time for today. We'll be back here tomorrow.
