The Patriot Post® · Bishops Stand Firm
As the left goes all in on transgender insanity, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops issued a strong statement this week standing firmly on the side of biology and Christian teaching. In their statement, the bishops declared:
“A fundamental tenet of the Christian faith is that there is an order in the natural world that was designed by its Creator and that this created order is good… What is true of creation as a whole is true of human nature in particular: there is an order in human nature that we are called to respect.
"In fact, human nature deserves utmost respect since humanity occupies a singular place in the created order, being created in the image of God (Gen. 1:27). To find fulfillment as human persons, to find true happiness, we must respect that order.”
After reaffirming church teaching that we are created male and female in the image of God, the bishops further declared:
“Catholic health care services must not perform interventions, whether surgical or chemical, that aim to transform the sexual characteristics of a human body into those of the opposite sex or take part in the development of such procedures.”
Good for them! I’m glad the bishops spoke up now, and I hope they will speak up more often in the future.
In a confrontation between Caesar and God, they are standing firmly with God and biology. (This may be the only thing that the Catholic Church and atheist biologist Richard Dawkins agree on!)
But I guarantee you that the Biden Administration and the secular left Democrat Party, which is increasingly anti-Christian, saw this story and said, “Bring it on!”
Biden has been pushing hard to force Christian doctors and hospitals to perform transgender surgeries. (Here and here.) He has even threatened to withhold food from poor kids if schools resist the radical transgender agenda.
As we have repeatedly pointed out, the left is willing to crush and jail anyone from pro-life activists to moms at school board meetings to the former president of the United States. They are out to crush us all.
Democrat senators have repeatedly launched bigoted attacks against Christian nominees. The FBI concocted a scheme to spy on Catholic churches, and the left is obsessed with “Christian nationalism.”
Remember how the left went after Amy Coney Barrett because she took her Catholic faith seriously? They tried to turn her into a nut.
Of course, another female justice stunned senators when she said she could not define what a woman is, but the left was totally fine with that.
