The LGBT agenda is like a hydra; a multi-headed monster that attacks society on several different fronts.
At first, the movement gained acceptance through positive portrayals in the entertainment arts. Later on, the LGBT mafia began infiltrating the education system, imposing its rather totalitarian brand of inclusion on children and families. Lastly, they are ratcheting up their efforts to reshape society through state and federal legislation.
Saints, we can turn off the TV or boycott certain shows, we can pull our children from schools that shove sexual perversion down their throats, but what recourse will we have if these people are still able to change laws according to the agenda to an Orwellian degree?
This is the startling reality we may face if the U.S. Supreme Court upholds a lower court decision that redefines the word sex in federal law to mean gender identity.
If the law protects an individuals right to determine their own reality and decide their own gender, even the gentlest opponents of such anti-science and anti-faith practices will instantly become criminals.
Attorneys for Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) are fighting this terrifying prospect at every front.
On behalf of a Michigan funeral home forced by the 6th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals to allow a male employee to break their sex-specific dress code and wear womens clothing at work, ADF filed a petition asking the Supreme Court to take the case.
Back in 2016, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan ruled in favor of the funeral home. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), however, appealed to the 6th Circuit court who then ruled in favor of the employee.

By EXCLUDING good people of morals
Strange how people are not happy with who they are so they want to change it. They can change everything about their appearance but they cannot change who they really are.
Sex is a given biological fact.
Gender is a wishful mental construct.
No doubt it will be a 5-4 ruling with Roberts voting to include gender identity.
Next up Pedophilia rights.
Hope the court is smart enough not to rule against God again......
“...Redifinition...”
Well, first...they’re gonna have to learn to spell “redefinition”.
After all, John Roberts spelled the word “fine” as t-a-x.
When they dig up your bones in a thousand years.....only sexes identified by testing is MALE or FEMALE.
Satanists like to look to the animal kingdom for behavioral examples, especially wolves. I don’t see wolves having sexual identity issues. These Sodomites are making Alistair Crowley look normal.
The slip of this slope we’re on is getting steeper by the day. As others have opined, we are very probably going to soon see a “relaxation” of laws regarding pedophilia, polyamory, bestiality, and the performance of sexual acts in public. I think there was a book that talked about where this all leads....
i thought SCOTUS was done for the year ... so how can they be “set” to rule?
bump
Of course, if the court rules for the plaintiffs, it will take this Congress five minutes to pass a law ADDING “gender identity” to existing law.
I think they better be asking God what He thinks about all this.The Supreme Court of the United States is not the ultimate SUPREME Court . . . there is a Judgement Day coming and every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord! Ruth Graham was right when she told her husband Billy, “If God doesnt punish America, Hell have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah.
The EEOC is part of the executive branch. Cant Trump force them to drop the appeal?
“Sex is a given biological fact.
Gender is a wishful mental construct.”
All part of the left taking over the language and changing the meaning of words to suit themselves, all of which Ayn Rand warned against many decades ago.
In grade school I was taught that the word SEX applies to people, who are either male or female but there are some hermaphrodites who are born with features of both sexes as a birth DEFECT. The word GENDER was to be applied only to PRONOUNS and there were THREE genders, not one, not two and certainly not more than three, the three genders of pronouns were masculine (not male), feminine (not female) and neuter.
Unfortunately the English language has been butchered since to the extent that much and I am tempted to say most of what I see in writing now is so vague as to be indecipherable. In all too many cases I wonder if the writer even had an actual thought in mind to begin with because no thought is recognizable.
FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponents Argument
First, only elected lawmakers, not judges, can define the sexes in the constitutional republic imo. Correction, insights welcome. (Career lawmakers let activist justices get away with stealing legislative powers so that judges can legislate from the bench the unconstitutional laws that corrupt lawmakers want to make but not take responsibility for.)
And speaking of lawmakers, patriots are reminded that the states have never amended the Constitution to give Congress the specific power to define sex.
From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]. United States v. Butler, 1936.
Consider that a previous generation of state sovereignty-respecting Supreme Court justices acknowledged state power recognition of male and female biological sexes when they decided against women suffrage leader Virginia Minor in Minor v. Happersett.
In fact, the 19th Amendment is based on biological sex since it was drafted in response to the Courts decision Minor v. Happersett.
19th Amendment:
"The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation [emphasis added]."
I wouldnt be surprised if the corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification, post-FDR era Supreme Court is looking for an opportunity to politically amend the Constitution with politically correct LGBT rights, just as it did when it wrongly decided against the sovereign states in Roe v. Wade imo.
In fact, using inappropriate words like "concept" and "implicit" here is what was left of 10th Amendment-protected state sovereignty after FDRs state sovereignty-ignoring majority justices got finished with it in Wickard v. Filburn.
"10th Amendment: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."
"In discussion and decision, the point of reference, instead of being what was "necessary and proper" to the exercise by Congress of its granted power, was often some concept [???] of sovereignty thought to be implicit [??? emphases added] in the status of statehood." Wickard v. Filburn, 1942
Remember in November 2020!
MAGA! Now KAG!
A tail is a tail no matter if SCROTUS says it’s a leg.
Chromosomes don’t lie.
How law and biomedical definitions are able to differ on this one, I’m not sure.
