The John-Henry Westen Show - Grooming children into LGBT ideology insults the God who created us in His image and likeness

00:00:00.320 On March 30th, 2022, Joe Biden released a presidential proclamation for the so-called Transgender Day of Visibility.

00:00:09.400 Have a listen to this.

00:00:11.660 To everyone celebrating Transgender Day of Visibility, I want you to know that your president sees you.

00:00:19.040 Jill, Kamala, Doug, our entire administration sees you for who you are, made in the image of God and deserving of dignity, respect, and support.

00:00:27.600 However, we're going to unpack it on this episode of the John Henry Weston Show.

00:00:31.900 Stay tuned.

00:00:50.060 Let's begin, as we always do, with the sign of the cross.

00:00:52.580 In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, Amen.

00:00:58.300 So, yes, it's true that each of us are made in the image and likeness of God.

00:01:04.500 The concept of the image of God, or imago dei, is central to the faith.

00:01:11.580 However, the transgender movement proposes a completely different vision.

00:01:17.900 In fact, it's a complete destruction of the way God made us.

00:01:21.160 Scripture clearly teaches, and this is the quote from where Biden is quoting.

00:01:27.320 It's from Genesis 1, 27.

00:01:28.860 And God created man in his own image.

00:01:32.860 In the image of God, he created him.

00:01:35.680 Male and female, he created them.

00:01:39.740 Again, from the first book of the Bible, Genesis 1, verse 27.

00:01:43.640 So, while commenting about gender-confused people being made in the image of God, 1.00

00:01:50.040 the president conveniently leaves out the rest of the sentence in the scriptures where God made us male and female.

00:01:57.260 There is no confusion about how many genders there are that God made. 0.60

00:02:04.500 He is very clear.

00:02:05.820 He made us in his image, and he made us male and female.

00:02:09.460 This same transgender movement tells our children to mutilate their beautiful God-given bodies 1.00

00:02:18.100 and destroy who they are based on what they feel like at any given point in time. 0.99

00:02:24.080 So, surgeries that involve slicing off healthy breasts or male genitalia, removing testicles, 0.97

00:02:33.380 they're regularly referred to as life-saving. 0.60

00:02:36.520 Puberty blockers, which are presented as essential health care,

00:02:42.080 even though they actually cause irreversible injury.

00:02:46.980 So, warning bells sounded by physicians and researchers illustrating devastating long-term effects,

00:02:53.760 they're written off as transphobic propaganda.

00:02:58.100 So, LifeSite blogger Jonathan Van Marijn has written extensively about this at LifeSiteNews.com.

00:03:03.700 Check out this link and more.

00:03:04.840 But, this scary graphic evidence that's being given to little children with step-by-step guidelines

00:03:12.280 on how to alter their own bodies.

00:03:15.720 The Doembetcher Children's Hospital.

00:03:19.400 So, this is a children's hospital.

00:03:21.360 It's in Portland, Oregon.

00:03:23.080 It's produced a detailed guide on tucking,

00:03:27.120 as well as advice on where transgender products can be purchased.

00:03:31.520 And it's aimed at children.

00:03:32.780 This information directed at children on how to disguise themselves as the opposite gender.

00:03:39.120 It's talking, and I hate to be so graphic about it, but, you know, this is what they're doing.

00:03:43.120 If a boy is uncomfortable with his genitalia or is experiencing gender dysphoria, 0.99

00:03:48.300 the advice here is to tuck in his male sex organ and his testicles between his legs and hide them, 0.99

00:03:54.220 rather than get comfortable in his own body. 1.00

00:03:57.700 There's counseling that can help with that.

00:03:59.760 And, you know, such counseling is illegal in many states already.

00:04:03.140 It is impossible.

00:04:04.600 There is much more horrific information in this guide,

00:04:09.060 and it's also replete with diagrams in which you can look at it for yourself.

00:04:13.860 Some kids, as young as 13, are even crowdfunding their hormone treatments and sex change surgeries.

00:04:23.140 Children order binders or packers with credit cards and get them mailed in disguised envelopes

00:04:31.180 after being told by transgender YouTube influencers that they've been watching without parental permission or knowledge.

00:04:37.560 This information is, unfortunately, relevant to many parents who do not even realize that it's happening.

00:04:45.780 Could there be a greater insult to Almighty God than to take the very body that he created for us

00:04:51.600 and change it and make it something he didn't intend?

00:04:55.680 He made us in his image and likeness.

00:04:58.640 And to mutilate and destroy our bodies is unconscionable.

00:05:02.300 This madness is being aimed specifically at our children, our young children,

00:05:08.400 who are being groomed by LGBTQ activists, and it has entered our schools and our media.

00:05:16.540 In Austin, Texas, a schoolteacher said that of the 32 4th grade students in her class,

00:05:24.240 now 4th grade is they're like 9 years old,

00:05:27.060 20 of them, she says, have come out to her as LGBTQIA+.

00:05:33.600 According to a leaked internal school message, we find that information.

00:05:40.120 So, the Austin ISD, that's the Independent School District, was under fire last week

00:05:45.900 after guidelines for Pride Community Circles issued by Doss Elementary School were leaked,

00:05:52.780 showing students as young as 4 years old.

00:05:55.680 4 years old, were instructed to keep their LGBT class discussions confidential from their parents.

00:06:05.040 Think about that.

00:06:06.620 4-year-old children told in school to keep their LGBT class discussions confidential from their parents.

00:06:15.560 Earlier this month, a photo of a sign posted at Wisconsin High School went viral.

00:06:21.280 It showed a mama bear surrounded by three cubs, one rainbow-colored, one striped like the transgender flag, 0.77

00:06:28.980 and a third colored blue and shades of purple.

00:06:32.660 And it read, and I quote,

00:06:35.480 If your parents aren't accepting of your identity, I'm your mom now.

00:06:41.720 And it was hashtag free mom hugs.

00:06:44.040 Abigail Schreier examines how families have been ruptured by the transgender movement in detail in her book,

00:06:53.500 Irreversible Damage, colon, the transgender craze seducing our daughters. 1.00

00:06:58.200 Children are encouraged to reject their natural families in favor of these glitter families. 0.85

00:07:04.020 These glitter families consist only of those who affirm every impulse of theirs,

00:07:10.520 and the brainwashing is just about everywhere.

00:07:13.440 You have certainly heard of the gingerbread man, I'm sure,

00:07:17.220 but you may not have heard of the genderbread man,

00:07:21.400 or, pardon me, the genderbread person, of course.

00:07:23.980 So, if your children attend a public school anywhere in North America,

00:07:29.280 they likely have heard of this genderbread person.

00:07:34.220 It was a concept developed to sell gender ideology to little children. 0.98

00:07:39.520 The genderbread person is a teaching tool to include and to inculcate kids into a worldview 0.96

00:07:47.200 that tells them that they can choose whatever gender they want, 0.96

00:07:50.740 and there are scores of options, of course, in that whatever gender they want. 0.97

00:07:57.780 So, that these genders are functionally irrelevant to their bodies, 1.00

00:08:01.700 well, and that both their gender and their body is irrelevant to their sexuality.

00:08:08.120 This is what they're shown.

00:08:09.180 This is what they're taught, and these are our children.

00:08:12.340 It's being taught at very young ages in schools,

00:08:15.700 not only in the United States, also in the United Kingdom, in Canada,

00:08:18.940 in fact, most of the Western world.

00:08:21.460 It's from the Royal Marines to the Civil Service,

00:08:24.900 from Australia to the United States.

00:08:27.560 In lockstep with the LGBTQ agenda, 1.00

00:08:31.220 Pixar's new Toy Story, a spinoff from the film Lightyear,

00:08:36.120 is set to feature a same-sex kissing scene.

00:08:39.540 LifeSite reporter Calvin Freiberger reported earlier this week

00:08:42.980 that any lingering doubts about Disney's social agenda were settled Tuesday

00:08:47.880 with the release of leaked excerpts from a private all-hands meeting.

00:08:53.960 You should watch it for yourself.

00:08:55.480 Hear what they have to say.

00:08:56.360 But then my experience was bafflingly the opposite of what I had heard.

00:09:03.580 On my little pocket of, like, you know, Proud Family, Disney TVA,

00:09:08.080 the showrunners were super welcoming, Meredith Roberts,

00:09:11.680 and, like, our leadership over there has been so welcoming

00:09:16.000 to, like, my, like, not-at-all secret gay agenda.

00:09:18.920 And so, like, I feel like I felt like it was, I mean, like,

00:09:24.080 maybe it was that way in the past,

00:09:25.820 but I guess, like, something must have happened in the last, like,

00:09:29.080 like, they were turning it around, they're going hard.

00:09:31.420 And then all that, like, momentum that I felt, like,

00:09:34.760 that sense of I don't have to be afraid to, like,

00:09:39.080 let's have these two characters kiss. 0.91

00:09:40.860 Let's, in the background, like, I was just wherever I could

00:09:44.020 just basically adding queerness to, like,

00:09:46.780 if you see anything queer in the show, I'm proud of them.

00:09:49.920 But, like, I just was like, no one would stop me.

00:09:52.880 Disney has also removed its ladies and gentlemen,

00:09:56.680 boys and girls from Happily Ever After pre-show announcement.

00:10:01.760 Check this out.

00:10:03.420 Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,

00:10:07.060 dreamers of all ages.

00:10:09.040 In just a few minutes, the Magic Kingdom invites you to enjoy

00:10:12.460 our nighttime spectacular Happily Ever After.

00:10:16.780 Good evening, dreamers of all ages.

00:10:20.320 In just a few minutes, the Magic Kingdom invites you to enjoy

00:10:23.740 our nighttime spectacular Happily Ever After.

00:10:28.080 LGBTQ activists are using every avenue available to them

00:10:33.760 to push this agenda down our children's throats.

00:10:37.740 Know that pornography is one of their most powerful tools. 0.53

00:10:41.300 Porn can induce children and teens to alternative sex acts.

00:10:47.100 It can reshape their minds to find such acts arousing.

00:10:52.520 It can entrench and exacerbate existing attractions or create new ones.

00:10:57.980 A key reason we see the number on children and teens identifying as LGBT, 1.00

00:11:03.760 we see the numbers skyrocketing.

00:11:05.700 It's because they are introduced to these concepts as young children.

00:11:11.040 Even at younger and younger ages, they're exposed to pornography.

00:11:14.980 And porn is like a how-to manual for this.

00:11:19.220 The LGBT movement and the porn industry are fundamentally allied. 0.99

00:11:23.560 LGBT activists recognize that pornography is more than just sexually explicit content.

00:11:30.280 It is sexual propaganda, and it is an incredibly effective destroyer of morals.

00:11:35.940 When we write about homosexuality and the trans agenda that's poisoning society, 1.00

00:11:41.800 especially corrupting our children,

00:11:43.400 people often misunderstand and think that we're bigots because we're against people of the same sex

00:11:49.520 indulging in sexual relations.

00:11:51.840 You know what? 0.98

00:11:53.120 Sodomy, sexual acts between persons of the same sex, are sinful.

00:11:57.880 And it is one of the four sins that cry out to God for vengeance.

00:12:03.200 And it's also contrary to natural law.

00:12:06.640 We do not oppose just same-sex acts, however.

00:12:10.520 We condemn every act that's outside the marital union.

00:12:14.300 Every sexual act outside of marriage is sinful.

00:12:17.720 And why do we do that?

00:12:19.520 Because we actually realize that chastity and purity are crucial to our existence.

00:12:28.360 We love these people.

00:12:30.540 And we're the only ones with the courage to tell them that these behaviors are harmful for them.

00:12:37.000 They're harmful for them in their bodies and in their minds, in their psyches, also in their souls.

00:12:43.820 Jesus taught us in the Sermon on the Mount,

00:12:45.860 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.

00:12:50.680 We're not hating on those that promote homosexuality or just condemning all the horrifying things that you just heard about.

00:12:58.880 We're actually more equality-minded in the sense that we don't want any kind of impurity corrupting our children, be it homosexual, heterosexual, or otherwise.

00:13:10.780 St. John Bosco, the wonderful saint, who spent his life on earth mentoring young boys and leading them on the way to virtue, said this,

00:13:20.560 So indeed, chastity is the queen of virtues, and it's a virtue we're all called to imbue if we want to see God and enjoy eternal bliss.

00:13:47.280 Chastity and purity of heart are indeed extremely difficult virtues, especially in this world of ours, which is so plagued by promiscuity and lust.

00:13:57.600 Our Lady of Fatima warned us that there were more souls that go to hell because of sins of the flesh than any other sin.

00:14:03.920 So we know that the devil sees this as his most important tool to bring people to hell.

00:14:11.460 So we must take this warning to heart and care not just for our own souls, but also that of our brothers and sisters, especially that of our children.

00:14:20.180 St. Gemma Gulgani, a saint famous for her purity and chastity, was taught by her mother to kneel devoutly each and every day and pray the three Hail Marys to the Queen of Heaven in honor of her Immaculate Conception.

00:14:36.540 In fact, a few days before her death—and remember, she was stabbed to death, basically, and she was stabbed and stabbed until she was dying.

00:14:44.760 And as she was dying, of course, she forgave her attacker, but also, just before she died, just a few days before her death, they found her kneeling and alone praying, although she, of course, had hardly any strength.

00:15:01.760 And they, you know, she was taken by surprise by a visitor, and she found her kneeling, reciting her usual three Hail Marys for purity.

00:15:10.800 So, I tell you this also because it's one of the things that my beloved dad told me about when I was young.

00:15:19.120 Praying the three Hail Marys for purity.

00:15:20.680 In fact, he added it to the morning prayers.

00:15:23.440 You know, your morning offering, O my Jesus, through the sorrowful and macular heart of Mary, offer thee this day, and so on.

00:15:28.080 So, add to that an Our Father and three Hail Marys.

00:15:31.700 In between the Hail Marys, the invocation of Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee, which, by the way, is on the miraculous medal if you look at it closely.

00:15:40.160 You should be wearing your miraculous medal because it, too, is a key to purity.

00:15:43.880 But anyway, three Hail Marys, morning with your morning offering, and at night with your active contrition.

00:15:49.660 I encourage you to begin this devotion to the Immaculata for ourselves, also for your loved ones, because unless we are pure in heart, we cannot see God.

00:16:01.080 And that's what we want for everybody, because that's true love.

00:16:04.700 And so, this isn't about hating of any kind.

00:16:07.500 It's not about discrimination.

00:16:08.860 It's about loving and being courageous enough to offer the truth on all these harmful practices to all of our brothers and sisters.

00:16:20.920 For LifeSite News, this is John Henry Weston.

00:16:23.420 And may God bless you.
