“The Most Significant Revolution in History” (Illinois Family Spotlight #072)
Written by John Biver
In this week’s podcast, Laurie Higgins joins David Smith to discuss the Trans-Ideology and its effects on our schools, classrooms, and impressionable young children.
Laurie is the cultural affairs writer for the Illinois Family Institute, and “she does an amazing job writing thought provoking and compelling articles that help us think through the contemporary issues and the godless worldviews that dominate the public square.”
Laurie refers to what is going on today as “one of the most significant revolutions in history.”
“If people think this is just about this very small minority of people who experience gender dysphoria having access to opposite sex spaces — they’re wrong, they’re not fully informed.” The ultimate goal is to eradicate the public recognition of sex differences, she explains. That means in our restrooms, and locker rooms, shelters, nursing homes and semi-private hospital rooms.
“You have children who are coming to school and identifying as the opposite sex at very very young ages — as early as kindergarten. And many school are accommodating that. What this teaches children of all ages is “that in order to be compassionate, inclusive people, they have to relinquish their physical privacy.”
In their discussion, Dave Smith brings up this question: How evil do the ideas have to be and how young do the children have to be who are being exposed to such evil before Christians speak out and take action?
Laurie stresses that whether you have children in the public schools or not, your tax dollars are paying for them and the kids in these government-run schools are tomorrow’s culture makers.
