"You will be made to care," wrote Eric Erickson in RedState back in 2013. He was referring to a court case in Colorado of a Christian baker who refused to make a wedding cake for a gay couple and was fined for it.
Today, we are being threatened, intimidated, and bullied into caring about people who believe they are trapped in the wrong body - that their biological gender is incorrect and that they are actually someone of the opposite gender - or some other gender created out of whole cloth.
A Virginia French teacher found out the consequences of trying to balance his religious beliefs with the new paradigm of "transitioning" to another gender.
Peter Vlaming ran afoul of a toxic form of political correctness which is not based on science, or fact, and is based on the irrational construct that we can choose our gender.
Vlaming, 47, who had taught at the school for almost seven years after spending more than a decade in France, told his superiors his Christian faith prevented him from using male pronouns for a student he saw as female.
The student’s family informed the school system of the transition over the summer. Vlaming said he had the student in class the year before when the student identified as female.
Vlaming agreed to use the student’s new, male name. But he tried to avoid using any pronouns — he or him, and she or her — when referring to the student. The student said that made him feel uncomfortable and singled out.
Administrators sided with the boy, telling Vlaming he could not treat his transgender pupil differently than he treats others.

Ther school sided with the “boy”? Uh, no they didn’t.
There’s a mental illness running loose on planet Earth.
It does not understand the binary concept of “male” and “female”.
Oh, there might be a few freaks of nature here and there. But not what they want you to believe.
I call this “spirit of antichrist” and the beginning of the Strong Delusion.
Because the people who believe this and promote this are certainly strongly-deluded.
Didn’t getting fired make the teacher feel uncomfortable too?
How do they say it in French?
Didn’t even use the female pronoun, he just avoided using pronouns. And wow the student and their family must be really nice people, making someone lose their job. Leftist scumbags.
Transgenderism is a mental illness. You feel like a woman in a man’s body or vice verse is nothing but a mental issue that you need to work on and solve.
The Left however, has embraced it’s weirdness and enforce coddling and celebrating the mentally ill.
A professor friend of mine had a student who wanted to be call “they.” One dude, but if you don’t do the ‘preferred pronoun thing = job loss.
Here’s a great speech on the history of the medical treatment of gender confusion and how PC destroyed science.

Its called liberalism, that is the mental illness..first they destroy religion, then they destroy children..turn them into freaks.. I guarantee you these kids were told “Oh you are not a boy you are really a girl in a boy’s body” its child abuse
I have found many of them to be truly antichrist. Meaning they openly declare there is no God and that ‘Jesus’ thing is just a myth.
I back away, sometimes quickly, and shake the dust off my feet.
Vive la difference ..... not.
I call it nucking futs! And I’m right.
“There’s a mental illness running loose on planet Earth.”
True. But sooner than later sanity and reality will get their revenge.
This junk is being helped along somehow, state by state, country by country. There’s no way it would “spring up” everywhere at approximately the same time.
A generation ago, Christian parents didn t have to worry about how to explain transgenderism to their nine-year-old, or help their teenager deal with mockery at school for believing in traditional marriage. But today, as our culture s moral center continues to fly apart and all publicly aired and celebrated, we have no choice but to equip our kids to understand and to own the truth about such issues. In Made This Way: How to Prepare Kids to Face Today s Tough Moral Issues, Leila Miller and Trent Horn give parents (guardians and teachers, too!) crucial tools and techniques to form children with the understanding they need appropriate to their age and maturity level to meet the world s challenges. Their secret lies in an approach that begins not with the Bible or Church teaching but with the natural law. In kid-friendly ways, Miller (Primal Loss) and Horn (Persuasive Pro-Life) help you communicate how the right way to live is rooted in the way we re made. God s design for human nature is a blueprint or owner s manual for moral living that any child can grasp through reason and apply to modern controversies over sex, marriage, life... and the quest for human fulfillment. Topics covered include Living Together Outside of Marriage, Same-Sex Marriage, Divorce, Contraception, Abortion, Reproductive Technologies, Modesty, Pornography, Transgenderism, Homosexuality. Silence can no longer be an option. If we re not teaching our children how to understand tough moral issues, then the world will. Read Made This Way and learn how to give your kids a firm foundation on which to build a life of moral clarity and happiness. (from Amazon)
Just finished that book. Great book.
Compelled speech is illegal. This teacher should sue.
Parents once again they are stepping on your d###ks and you sit by and allow it to happen, storm the school and demand that the school board be dissolved and those teachers agreeing be fired
