Hello friend, thank you so much for downloading

0:02

this podcast and I hope you hear something

0:04

truly. I mean this from

0:06

the bottom of my heart, something that edifies,

0:08

equips, enlightens, encourages, and then

0:10

gently but firmly gets you out there into

0:12

the marketplace of ideas. I so appreciate your

0:15

taking the time to listen. But before you

0:17

start the broadcast, let me just take a

0:19

moment and explain that this month's Truth Tool

0:21

is called SEEK, S-E-E-K, written by my friend

0:23

David Robertson, my favorite Scottish apologist who is

0:25

currently serving the Lord in Australia. He comes

0:28

and visits with us once a month and

0:30

he wrote a book called Ask

0:32

and now he's written a follow-up

0:35

book called Seek Real Word Answers

0:37

to Real World Questions. And

0:39

so he literally goes through a whole series

0:41

of questions like, is there ever a good

0:44

lie or does the Bible have mistakes or

0:46

what does the Bible say about climate change

0:48

or what's the difference between capitalism and communism?

0:51

And the list goes on and on and on.

0:53

So it is a fabulous reference book that I

0:55

know you're going to want to put in your

0:57

legacy library. So if you'd like a copy of

0:59

SEEK and we are a listener supported radio,

1:01

2:09

Not left. Hi

2:16

friends. Welcome to In the Market with Janet

2:18

partial. It's Heart to Heart Friday where Craig

2:20

and I share some of the stories making

2:23

headlines this week and then we'll offer our

2:25

insight and analysis. If you'd like

2:27

to join in the conversation on what we're talking about,

2:29

please call 877-548-3675. That's 877-548-3675. Now

2:37

let's take a quick look back at some of the other

2:39

topics we discussed this week. There

2:47

are people who are struggling with

2:49

mental illness, who are struggling with

2:51

depression, who are struggling with anxiety,

2:54

but are we actually causing

2:57

a difference? Is my profession

2:59

actually reducing the rates of mental illness?

3:03

And at this point, it doesn't seem like we

3:05

are. We have to wrestle with

3:07

that. And what I've observed,

3:09

what my argument is, is

3:11

that we need a different approach. We

3:14

have been treating the symptoms. We

3:16

have been symptom centric up until

3:19

this point. And what

3:21

I'm arguing is we need to begin

3:23

looking at what's causing the increase in

3:25

mental illness, what's driving the increase in

3:28

mental illness. The ideas of

3:30

universal freedom, so just taking a step

3:32

back now, that is freedom for all

3:34

people, not just political freedom. Those

3:37

find their cut and thrust, they are

3:39

rooted in the Judeo-Christian worldview. And

3:42

I could tell you, historian after

3:44

historian, even secular historian, who have

3:46

said this, that until the Judeo-Christian

3:48

motif came around, there was no

3:51

ideas that took hold of universal

3:53

freedom. This is really

3:55

ripping the Band-Aid off a seething

3:58

wound that the UK has. Have been

4:00

struggling with now for the better

4:03

part of ten years, because it

4:05

really does, once and for all,

4:07

cement the fact that these procedures

4:10

are not only barbaric, their life

4:12

altering, they are irreversible and they're

4:14

being prescribed. For no reason

4:17

whatsoever. They are for many

4:19

of these individuals actually making the

4:21

underlying mental. Health worse because it's

4:23

right to do Okay to get this

4:26

idea that it's the right thing to

4:28

do if there is nothing is the

4:30

universe but each of us making our

4:33

own choices. For someone who wants to

4:35

take the choice to a pressure, why

4:37

would you think that's a mistake? It's

4:40

important to them to lay down these

4:42

market right now. Got to establish a

4:44

foothold so that people will face can

4:46

feel comfortable in the workplace and we'd

4:49

Are you going to be fired because

4:51

we're cost work. That day. Are you

4:53

going to be fired because about because of

4:56

an apparent comment? Or or here a very

4:58

honest, straightforward tom it to your company. To

5:02

accomplish. Guys,

5:05

respect the rights to you're doing

5:07

so good last. Friday

5:11

some of the other series making

5:13

headlines discuss. Israel has

5:15

5:54

It's it's. Hard to hard Friday

5:56

and in the market with said. Partial, I have

5:58

lots to share and will. The first

6:00

story on the table when we return to

6:02

join the conversation. On the topics were

6:04

discussing Call Eight Seven Seven Five Four

6:07

Eight Three Six Seven Five. That's Eight

6:09

Seven Seven Five Four Eight Three Six

6:11

Seven. What?

Is a woman looks the difference between

6:25

capitalism and communism? Is there such a

6:27

thing? Is a good line. this will

6:29

have chosen seek. Is this monstrous? To

6:31

get biblical the answers to questions like.

6:39

the market. Call Eight Seven Seven Janet Fifty Eight

6:41

That's a Seven Seven Janet Secede are voting in

6:43

the market with had a partial that a

6:45

large he. Every

6:48

Friday to you friends, this is in

6:50

the market was yeah, a partial bus,

6:52

Craig partial. And on Fridays we go

6:54

round robin on a whole bunch of

6:56

topics, looking at them for markedly different

6:58

perspective through the lens of scripture. Not

7:00

like the alphabet soup networks out there,

7:02

but we really dig deeper To say,

7:04

did God speak directly into this issue?

7:06

Is there a preeminent principle that applies

7:08

to what is being discussed or headline

7:10

is said? The government going to be

7:12

advancing are retreating from principles that we

7:14

know our protective for our country and

7:16

for our family. So. We take a look

7:18

at these issues in a markedly different way.

7:21

and we have breaking news loud Europe at

7:23

five o'clock this morning. you probably got the

7:25

news, but for the rest of us, most

7:27

of us were still sleeping that it's five

7:29

o'clock This morning, the by the administration dropped

7:31

their new interpretation of Title Nine, and let

7:34

me tell you in a word, it's It's

7:36

horrible. It is a remarkable setback for women.

7:38

For over fifty years, Title Nine has afforded

7:40

a level playing field for women in sports.

7:42

And it's done. Women a great service over

7:45

the years. Rumored sex. It's interesting were talking

7:47

about their Caitlin. clerk likely his just

7:49

gonna get an eight figure salary is

7:51

going to sign she's gonna play professional

7:53

basketball and what would happen if she

7:55

was competing against guys yeah a guy

7:58

who felt that now is it and

8:00

so he was going to make things difficult

8:02

for her on the court when she's trying

8:04

to, you know, go for the free shot.

8:06

Well, the reality is this idea for the

8:08

government is about pushing an agenda. This is

8:10

all about worldviews, by the way. This is

8:12

why I find what's going on in Washington

8:14

so interesting. Because you

8:17

have to hold your nose on the process,

8:19

I get that, but it's really about debating

8:21

ideas. And there are two mutually ideas at

8:23

foot here. One of them is you are

8:25

born a woman, you are born a male, you can feel

8:27

any way you want to, you can feel like a dog or

8:29

a cat, or you can feel like you're a woman

8:31

or a man, but that doesn't change the biological reality

8:33

of who you are. But it's an election year. When

8:35

you're trying to get votes and you're trying to go

8:38

after a particular demographic, you're going

8:40

to convolute completely truth because power

8:42

corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

8:45

In fact, I got to tell you, it's

8:47

an addictive drug. This elixir of power is

8:50

something that's very hard for mortal man to

8:52

stay away from. Power, if you'll remember in

8:54

the temptation when Jesus was in the wilderness,

8:56

is one of the things that Satan offered

8:59

Jesus. So this elixir is that temptation that

9:01

mankind, since we walked out of the garden,

9:03

has been dealing with. But in a word,

9:05

Biden inserted gender identity into Tyler line, adding

9:08

biological males to women's rights laws.

9:10

And the reaction has been swift, immediate.

9:12

And wait, I think I hear the sound of

9:14

a pen scratching up a few legal briefs as

9:16

we speak. And speaking of the law, it's

9:18

the family time here now on In the Market

9:21

with Jenna Parcel. We bookend this week with my

9:23

daughter, Sarah Parcel Perry, a senior legal

9:25

fellow at the Heritage Foundation, started out the week

9:27

talking about Title IX, and we knew that this

9:29

was coming. And now it has dropped. And Sarah,

9:32

is it as bad as you thought it would

9:34

be? And tell me about the breakdown. In other

9:36

words, he's just, he's gutted

9:38

the idea of what the definition of a female is.

9:40

So moms and dads, be prepared now to have a

9:42

guy show up in your daughter's locker room. Yes,

9:46

it is not only as bad as

9:48

we thought it would be. It's actually

9:50

worse. In fact, I was on a

9:52

stakeholder call with Catherine Lehman, who is

9:54

the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights at

9:56

the Department of Education. She was asked

9:59

a direct question. Will

10:01

this particular rule force the

10:04

use of preferred pronouns? What if

10:06

someone is misgendered? And she said

10:08

yes. She actually

10:10

said that this now will

10:13

support a sexual harassment claim

10:15

under the new Title IX regulations. So

10:18

even though that is constitutional, and the Supreme

10:20

Court said multiple times, even as recently as

10:22

last term in the 303 creative case, that

10:26

every law is subjected to

10:28

the Constitution's restrictions. She

10:31

doesn't seem to care, nor does Miguel Cordona,

10:33

who is the Secretary of Education.

10:35

So that is just

10:37

one of the many manifestations of

10:39

the illegality of this rule. It

10:42

is not, I believe, an overstatement to say

10:44

it's going to fundamentally change the face

10:46

of American education. Sarah,

10:49

I've been reading some of the

10:51

media reports on this, and the

10:53

impression that's given is, no, transgender

10:55

issues really weren't addressed in this.

10:58

I find that rather bewildering.

11:00

I'm sure you do, too. I mean, I

11:02

looked at some of the language, words

11:05

like a school creating

11:08

a, quote, unwelcome,

11:10

sex-based situation that creates

11:12

a hostile environment could

11:14

be the basis for a lawsuit under Title

11:16

IX. And

11:19

that's clearly, wouldn't that be

11:21

transgender rights writ large? Absolutely,

11:25

in fact. The term gender identity by

11:28

itself appears 289 times in the 1,500-page

11:30

regulation that was just released. They

11:35

are very clear that this is

11:37

an expansive sort of version

11:39

of their original determination

11:42

that sex discrimination is prohibited

11:44

in public education. Now,

11:47

when I say public education, what

11:49

I really mean is federally funded

11:51

education programs, and that could be

11:53

trade schools, private schools,

11:56

graduate schools, higher education

11:58

institutions, case-through-trees, and other things. 12 schools if

12:01

they accept so much as $1 of

12:03

federal funding both directly or

12:05

indirectly. So let me clarify

12:07

for a lot of your listeners,

12:09

I think there are sort of a misunderstanding

12:12

that this won't apply to private schools or

12:14

charter schools or for example religious schools. If

12:17

you accept a dollar of federal

12:19

funding, let's say you take a

12:22

child on a reduced lunch program. If

12:24

you admit a student on a

12:27

Pell Grant, if you take a

12:29

student who has borrowed federal money

12:31

from the federal Department of Education

12:33

for loans, you're subject to these

12:35

new provisions that go

12:38

into effect on August 1st of this

12:40

year conveniently in time for the

12:42

beginning of the school year. So very much

12:44

so is gender identity

12:46

included. Yeah, and

12:48

if you look at the word

12:51

unwelcomed environment, well first

12:53

of all you and I both

12:55

know something about the Constitution. It

12:57

seems to me to be totally

12:59

and rather radically unconstitutional

13:02

for over breath and vagueness.

13:04

What is an unwelcome environment

13:07

for a transgender student in a

13:09

high school or a university? That's

13:12

exactly it. That's exactly it. There are so

13:14

many problems with this. I like to tell

13:16

people it's not just a violation of

13:18

civil rights law, it's a violation

13:20

of constitutional law and administrative

13:22

law. All executive agencies

13:25

are bound to follow something called

13:27

the Administrative Procedure Act. Now

13:29

nobody pays attention to regulatory reform and

13:32

it's actually quite boring

13:34

until you get down to

13:36

a government's use of the

13:38

administrative state to be able

13:40

to manipulate long-standing federal law

13:42

to achieve its desired end.

13:45

And that's exactly what we're

13:47

looking for here. A

13:49

federal executive agency, remember the executive

13:51

branch is different from the legislative

13:54

branch, different from the judicial branch.

13:56

It cannot make law, but

13:58

it can. make rules

14:01

and regulations interpreting or

14:03

enforcing law that Congress

14:05

has already enacted. And so under

14:07

that authority, that is exactly how this

14:09

rulemaking took place. But here's the thing.

14:12

The Supreme Court just reminded us last

14:14

term in a case called West Virginia

14:16

versus EPA that every executive

14:18

agency has to be able to

14:20

say Congress allowed this particular interpretation.

14:22

I don't think there's anyone who

14:25

can say with a straight face

14:27

that in 1972, during the

14:31

process of 250 bills

14:33

between House and Senate versions

14:35

on the education amendments, that

14:38

anyone believes sex meant gender

14:40

identity. So we're not only anticipating

14:42

a legal challenge. We know for

14:44

a fact that the Independent Women's

14:46

Law Center already has one in

14:49

the works. You took me

14:51

where I wanted to go. I want to parse this out between the

14:53

Court of Public Opinion and the Court of Law. So

14:56

Christian Wagner of the Alliance Defending Freedom already

14:58

said in a tweet in part, see you

15:00

in court at POTUS. That's P-O-T-U-S for people

15:02

who don't know. That's the handle for President

15:04

of the United States. It's used for every

15:06

president, not just this one. So

15:09

apparently ADF is going to take out and

15:11

sharpen their pens as well and take this

15:13

in court. But you just touched

15:15

on Congress. Can Congress offer a remedy while we wait

15:17

for this to move up the legal trail? That's

15:20

a great question. So there are 60 legislative

15:23

days that started running

15:25

now on something called

15:27

a Congressional Review Act challenge.

15:30

And that allows for either

15:32

chamber, the House or the

15:34

Senate, to advance a resolution

15:36

by a two-thirds vote. Now

15:38

that's a significant threshold, but

15:41

by two-thirds vote, they can

15:43

actually vote down a

15:45

rule under the Congressional Review Act.

15:47

That gives them an opportunity to

15:49

say we don't find this founded

15:51

in law, fiscally responsible, supported

15:54

by congressional text history. But

15:57

here is the kicker. The Department of

15:59

Education. education's rule. If

16:02

it is CRA challenge, Congressional Review

16:04

Act challenge, it still goes to

16:06

the president's desk and he

16:08

has a right of,

16:10

unfortunately, veto. So the reason it, that's

16:13

exactly it, the reason we saw it

16:15

come out now and we calculated some

16:17

of the attorneys like me who are

16:19

working on this particular issue sort of

16:21

extrapolated it out and we said in

16:24

order to find essentially that

16:26

perfect window where they can

16:28

survive a Congressional Review Act

16:30

challenge, they've got a release

16:32

by May 26th and sure enough on

16:34

today they released it just as we

16:37

anticipated they would. So at least for

16:39

the time being there are 60 days,

16:42

legislative days, where the good

16:44

thinking members of the upper

16:46

and lower chamber who will

16:48

not bend the knee or count

16:50

out the alphabet mafia are going

16:52

to have the opportunity to say

16:54

we do not approve of this

16:56

rule, we do not want it

16:59

published in the Federal Register. Now

17:01

so let's figure worst case

17:03

scenario from my perspective and I'm

17:05

sure from yours as well. Congress

17:08

is unable to act, unable to

17:10

stop this, but there's

17:12

still opportunity for the

17:14

courts to weigh in on this

17:16

and perhaps go up to the

17:18

Supreme Court who has on repeated

17:20

occasions, hasn't it, said look regulatory

17:23

agencies under the White House

17:25

have to have authority, specific

17:27

authority from Congress for what

17:29

they do, for what they

17:31

what regulations they impart and in this case

17:33

as you pointed out there doesn't seem to

17:36

be that authority. When we come back

17:38

I want to talk a little bit about the court of public opinion

17:40

because the reaction is interesting and very

17:42

mixed by the way. We're on to

17:44

find out so legal challenges in the

17:47

offing, congressional review, you just broke that down

17:49

beautifully for us, but in the meantime

17:51

this takes 50 years of common sense

17:53

and equal opportunity for women and just

17:55

it's this erates it, why? Because

17:58

it's all about political You

18:00

can call a dog a cat, cat a dog, and

18:02

apparently get away with it. Back after this. Sarah

18:10

partial Perry is with us giving us

18:12

an update on a stunning but not

18:14

surprising decision that came down from the

18:17

administration at five o'clock this morning. They

18:19

basically gutted the philosophy and the practicality

18:21

of Title IX, which gave women for

18:23

the past half century an equal

18:25

opportunity when it came to playing sports. Now because

18:27

we can't make up our mind. Not what the

18:29

rest of the world is doing. They've hit the

18:31

pause button. They understand that there's mental illness here.

18:33

They understand that puberty blockers cause irreparable damage. But

18:36

no, no, no, not here in the United States.

18:38

We're going back in time. We're going back into

18:40

a world of ignorance and darkness where we basically

18:42

said you can lie and if you don't lie then

18:44

we'll make you take away your job because you're not

18:46

using the right pronoun. And oh, by the way, we're

18:48

going to pretend that a man can compete against a

18:51

woman. Well, let me tell you what Serena Williams said.

18:53

For me, men's tennis and women's

18:55

tennis are completely almost two separate sports.

18:57

The men are a lot faster. They

18:59

serve harder. They hit harder. It's

19:02

just a different game. That's from a tennis pro,

19:04

a woman. Martina Novrits-Lova said the same thing today.

19:06

She's very upset by this and wants to know

19:08

when we're going to get some common sense back

19:10

when it comes to sports. And then

19:12

there is the national organization for some

19:14

women who sent out a tweet on

19:16

March 31st that said, and I quote,

19:19

repeat after us weaponizing womanhood against

19:21

other women is white supremacist patriarchy

19:23

at work, making people believe there

19:26

isn't enough space for trans women

19:28

in sports is white supremacy patriarchy

19:30

at work. That tweet

19:32

has since been deleted probably because it fell under

19:34

its own weight. It is ludicrous at its face.

19:36

It has nothing to do with race. It has

19:38

everything to do with gender. And

19:41

what happened to the feminist out there, Serena?

19:43

You and I both heard from a man

19:45

whose handle on Twitter is scrumpy old boomer

19:47

who basically said, guess what? We're now going

19:49

to attack well, feminists. How do you like

19:51

this one? Men

19:54

win again. We get to

19:56

take your scholarships and preferential treatment and is

19:58

being tongue in cheek here. but he's

20:00

absolutely spot out in your thoughts. Well,

20:04

I have to tell you, where

20:06

are the feminists of old on

20:08

this particular issue? The Bella Abzug's

20:10

and the Gloria Steinham's and the

20:12

Betty Friedan's, everyone who fought so

20:14

hard for what we gained, which

20:16

was equality and employment and education,

20:19

Title VII and Title IX were

20:21

sort of their crowning achievements, right?

20:23

They really professed that the

20:25

opportunities needed to be equal

20:27

for men and women in

20:29

education, but now the only

20:31

people defending the text, the

20:33

history, the congressional layout, the

20:35

debate, the language of Title

20:37

IX are biological

20:39

women who are themselves more

20:42

conservative than not. I find

20:44

that absolutely stymieing that the

20:46

left has ultimately engaged

20:48

in what I'd like to lovingly

20:51

call regressive liberalism. You get to

20:53

a point where, you know, sort of

20:55

the snake of segmenting special classes of

20:58

people begins to eat its

21:00

own tail, because what happens when

21:02

one class butts up against

21:04

another class? The Department of

21:07

Education has just created that

21:09

paradigmatic example with Title IX.

21:11

You're going to have trans-identified

21:15

males who think they're women butting

21:17

up against the claims of biological

21:19

women over sports, over

21:21

bathrooms, over locker rooms, over

21:24

scholarships, over everything else. And

21:26

I think what we're doing

21:28

is we're witnessing sort of a

21:30

giving up of the historical left

21:33

on what we're always considered to

21:35

be, in large part, left-wing causes,

21:37

right? They were the ones who

21:39

pushed for women's rights in bulk,

21:42

and now we're seeing the feminists

21:45

are surprisingly silent. In fact,

21:47

the left, the progressives, including

21:49

the festivals, have literally supported

21:51

a regulation that

21:53

is so illegal. It's already

21:56

going to be challenged in

21:58

federal court. I'm

22:00

surprised, I'm disheartened, but I'm

22:02

encouraged from the standpoint that

22:04

it gives opportunities to individuals

22:07

who understand the immutability of

22:09

God's design to stand up,

22:12

be bold, be not

22:14

afraid of name-calling like

22:16

transphobic, and say, listen,

22:18

we believe what our eyes can

22:21

tell us, and we refuse to

22:23

say the Emperor's clothes are beautiful

22:25

when in fact he's walking around

22:27

naked, and that's exactly what this

22:29

is. So wait a minute,

22:31

Sarah, you mean to say, I think

22:34

you're saying something, I see it boggles

22:37

my mind, you mean to

22:39

say that radical feminism really wasn't

22:41

about protecting and enhancing

22:43

the rights and opportunities

22:45

of women? Now isn't that

22:48

interesting? So in other words, it was

22:50

really about overturning

22:52

cultural norms that really were

22:54

based on the truth of

22:56

not only what we know scientifically and

22:59

biologically, but also the truth of Scripture

23:01

as well. I mean,

23:03

is that really the bigger issue here? I

23:06

have a question. It exactly is. No, please

23:08

go ahead. No,

23:10

I'd like to point out that this is

23:13

exactly the problem that we began to emerge,

23:15

for example, with the women's march, right? So

23:17

this was the pink hat wearing sort

23:20

of absolutely obtuse

23:22

grotesque sign-holding sort of

23:24

multi-stake multicultural intersectionalism of

23:26

all of these particular

23:28

groups. But when the

23:30

feminists for life wanted to show

23:33

up, because they had one divergent

23:35

perspective, they were unilaterally cut out

23:37

because really what feminism

23:39

did was the opportunity to

23:42

be victims at multiple different

23:44

levels. They do not hold

23:47

fast to immutable truth of

23:49

right and wrong. They will not

23:52

acknowledge the humanity of the unborn,

23:54

the reality of biological sex. And

23:57

what we saw really with, for example,

23:59

Phyllis Schlatt's... who was the founder

24:01

of Eagle Form, who by the way

24:03

was also a lawyer, but also the

24:06

mother to five children, by the way,

24:08

who defeated the ERA. One

24:10

of her sort of misses on this

24:13

was to tell America that the ERA,

24:15

the Equal Rights Amendment, which was a

24:17

big precursor to Title

24:19

IX, was going to lead

24:21

to more problems on things

24:24

like, yes, even in

24:26

the 60s, gender identity and

24:28

abortion. That's exactly where we found

24:30

ourselves. One quick last question.

24:32

This is set in Plato, not

24:34

concrete. Because the agencies fall under

24:36

the executive branch of the government,

24:39

could another different president change this

24:41

or is this in stone forever?

24:44

No. The next president, whoever that

24:46

individual may be, could revoke this

24:49

rule and make a new rule

24:51

entirely replacing it. We're

24:54

hopeful to see that happen after the Great.

24:57

Sarah, thank you so much for giving us an update on

24:59

this late breaking news. You keep up the good word and

25:01

keep fighting the good fight. Back after this. When

25:11

we tackle tough issues on in the market,

25:13

do you find yourself nodding in agreement? Then

25:15

why not take the next step today and

25:17

become a partial partner? Your monthly gift will

25:19

25:21

you'll receive exclusive behind-the-scenes resources directly from me,

25:23

25:25

exclusive weekly audio briefing and more. Become

25:28

one of our partial partners today

25:30

by calling 877-JANET58 or go online

25:32

to InTheMarket with janetpartial.org. So

25:37

there's so many things here and let me just pause for

25:39

a minute and say this is when I said before that

25:42

we look at things differently than the rest of the world.

25:44

It's because we know that the Bible doesn't contain the Word

25:46

of God. It is the Word of God and our great

25:48

creator of us all made

25:50

men and women, by the way. The

25:53

biological truth is you may feel like you're

25:55

in the wrong body but that doesn't change

25:58

the objective truth of the world. who

26:00

you are and how God designed you. There's

26:03

clearly mental illness involved in this. And I can

26:05

say that, by the way, with impunity now. Because

26:08

now we've got the Hillary Cass report, this

26:10

renowned pediatrician that came out of the UK,

26:12

this very 388 pages, I think it

26:14

is, longitudinal

26:16

study of 2,400 patients where

26:19

they discovered that at the core, this

26:21

really is about children who are struggling with their mental

26:23

health. And that this so-called

26:25

gender dysphoria is just a manifestation of

26:27

the panoply of diagnoses that these kids

26:29

are struggling with. A report

26:31

came out of Finland as well. And they

26:33

found that, in fact, when you start using

26:36

wrong pronouns, when you start giving puberty blockers,

26:38

when you start doing surgery, you're actually causing

26:40

damage. Because you are facilitating, which

26:42

in the end, really portends

26:46

a suicidal ideation, not the lie

26:48

that parents have been told in

26:50

this country. What do you want? A live daughter or

26:52

a dead son. So out of fear that your child

26:54

is going to kill themselves, you go out and you

26:57

get all that butchering done for your child. If

26:59

they have suicidal ideations, it's because there's something broken.

27:01

And they need to see a counselor. And they

27:04

need some help. And that's what they've decided in

27:06

Sweden and in France and in Finland and in

27:08

the UK. But no, not in the United States.

27:11

Ideas have consequences. And so first, we start

27:13

with the absolute truth that God made you

27:16

either a man or a woman. And that

27:18

your feelings are not always

27:21

right. We don't depend on them, by the

27:23

way, because they change like the weather. The

27:25

biological reality is male or female. But this

27:28

stuff has to be propagandized. We have to

27:30

start drinking the Kool-Aid, to use an old

27:32

adage, that somehow we believe the lie. Because

27:34

if it's told often enough and

27:37

it's repeated, that somehow a lie becomes truth. Well,

27:39

that's why I praise God that he's given us

27:41

the indwelling of the person of the Holy Spirit.

27:44

Because we call it around here that spiritual gaggle

27:46

counter that goes off. Nining, nining, nining, nining. There's

27:48

something going up that says it's just not right.

27:51

And it's also why you often hear me quote Dwight

27:53

El-Moody's definition of the word of God as the straight

27:55

stick of truth. There's a bunch of crooked ideas out

27:57

there. See you lay next to it this time. straight

28:00

stick of truth to see how crooked some of these

28:02

ideas are. Well, I want to

28:04

tell you moms and dads that this is

28:06

about training children, propagandizing them to use a

28:08

much more accurate word at an early stage. So

28:11

you can't see the video, but I'll paint on the

28:13

canvas of your mind. This is a video that was

28:15

shown to fourth graders at an elementary

28:18

school in Georgia. It

28:20

speaks for itself. Craig and I will give

28:22

you some analysis after you've heard it, but

28:24

you can't have the ideas that were written

28:27

into law today by this current administration come

28:29

ex nihilo. They didn't come out of anywhere.

28:31

They came from a myriad of different pools

28:33

of ideas out there. But in order for

28:36

kids to start questioning who they are, to

28:38

question what their mother and father have taught

28:40

them, to question what they know about God

28:43

the Creator, you have to start in the

28:45

cutest of ways and the most opportunistic ways

28:47

you have to woo them like the

28:49

pied piper and the fairy tale. Remember that story?

28:52

They wanted to get rid of the rats. They hired a

28:54

pied piper. He was going to play his magic tube and

28:56

get rid of all the rats. And what he did, because

28:59

he wasn't compensated at a level he felt comfortable with, is

29:01

he ended up taking all the children away. It's

29:03

a tale of caution. So is this video. Have

29:05

a listen. Hi, I'm Gulliver,

29:07

and this is Emmet. Hey!

29:10

Oh, hi. I'm Barry. Oh,

29:13

hey. We are so excited you are here.

29:16

We could use another dog. Oh.

29:19

Nice collar. Oh, thank you. I like it.

29:23

So, what do you want to do first? Find

29:25

a two-toy? Oh, chase our tail? Oh, I know. Let's

29:28

sniff. No, actually, I like to play with yarn.

29:31

Yeah. It's fun. Yeah.

29:36

Or I like to clean my paws

29:38

like this. Can

29:41

you clean your face? Yeah.

29:44

Or we could practice purring

29:46

like this. Purring?

29:49

Oh, wow. Yeah. And

29:52

we could try to meow. Meow.

29:56

Meow. Meow. Like

29:58

that. It's great fun, you

30:00

should try it. Why

30:03

not? Yeah, let's go. Excuse

30:06

me, would you? I

30:08

just have to go for a second. I'll be right back.

30:10

No problem. Meow!

30:15

Miss Madison? Miss Madison? Oh,

30:17

hey, Gulliver, you're back. Did you find Barry?

30:20

Yeah. We've got to talk. This

30:22

seems like a nice guy. Oh, great guy, great

30:24

guy. He thinks

30:26

he's a cat. Yeah,

30:30

he's over there talking about yarn, purring,

30:34

and licking. Well,

30:36

that's okay, isn't it? I

30:39

think you should talk to him. About what?

30:42

About being more like a dog. Gulliver,

30:45

you're really struggling with this. It's

30:48

weird. It's not weird, just

30:50

different. I couldn't

30:52

ask Barry to change who he is. That would

30:55

make him really sad. Gulliver,

30:58

accepting people for who they are is a

31:01

very important skill. We

31:03

accept you for who you are. That's

31:05

different. I'm a dog who acts

31:08

like a dog. That's normal. Not

31:10

normal, just more common. I

31:14

don't understand. It's okay to have questions.

31:17

Questions are good if they help you accept someone for who they

31:19

are. Well,

31:21

you heard it. That's propaganda. Now

31:24

we've got fourth graders in Georgia, and you can bet

31:26

that that's not the only place in America that has

31:28

seen this video, where you get children,

31:30

by the way, to say it's

31:32

not normal, it's just more common.

31:35

You have to accept people for who they are. Well,

31:38

I would say it's not normal

31:40

to facilitate a delusion. When

31:42

someone looks at you and says that there's

31:44

something that they are not, and everything about

31:46

objective, knowable truth screams the reality of who

31:48

that person is, I fail

31:51

to see how it's loving to facilitate

31:53

someone's delusion. Craig, your thoughts on this?

31:55

Yeah, we really are entering

31:57

a very disturbing era of...

32:00

mass delusion being propagated, but

32:03

it becomes even worse when

32:05

it is targeting children in

32:08

fourth grade. It's a

32:10

bitter irony, I think, that we're talking about this

32:13

in the same month that every year is

32:17

recognized as Child

32:19

Abuse Awareness Month. This

32:21

month, I think this is

32:23

child abuse. To use that subtle,

32:27

sophisticated and insidious

32:29

suggestion that you

32:33

cannot recognize biological

32:35

differences because that

32:37

makes people uncomfortable, and

32:41

normality is something to be

32:44

rejected as uncomfortable.

32:47

Rather, let's just say some people

32:49

pick behaviors that are more common

32:52

than others, and it

32:54

would be judgmental to say

32:56

something is abnormal, something is

32:58

wrong, something is delusional. But

33:01

in fact, that's the road

33:03

to delusion rather than reality, and I

33:05

think we need a reality check particularly

33:07

for children who don't yet know who

33:09

they are. They develop

33:12

a sense of identity as

33:14

they get older. That's part

33:16

of child development that supposedly

33:18

teachers and educational institutions should

33:21

take classes in when they get

33:23

their degree in education, and as you and

33:25

I know, that used to be taught. But

33:29

now it is socializing and

33:31

social engineering at a very

33:33

frighteningly young age. We

33:35

were talking with Sarah earlier this week, and

33:37

she talked about how much money is made

33:40

about this idea that this is a very

33:42

lucrative business. Whether you're a

33:44

gender doctor or whether you're Planned Parenthood,

33:46

there's gold now and then there are

33:48

hills. I want you to hear a

33:51

gender doctor, by the way, who

33:53

thinks that kids know whether or

33:55

not they're transgender. Again, propaganda occurs

33:57

many places in the classroom. in

34:00

the doctors office. Have a listen. Most of

34:02

the patients that we have in the Dumps Clinic

34:04

actually know their gender, usually around the age of

34:06

puberty, but a good portion of children do know

34:09

as early as seemingly from the womb and they

34:11

will usually express their gender identity as very young

34:13

children and as soon as they can talk they

34:15

might say phrases such as I'm a girl or

34:18

I'm a boy or I'm going to be a

34:20

woman or I'm going to be a mom. Kids

34:22

know very very early. So in the Dumps Clinic

34:24

we see a variety of young children all the

34:27

way down to ages two and three and usually

34:29

up to the ages of nine. When they come

34:31

into the clinic they'll see one of our psychologists

34:33

and we'll be talking to them about

34:35

their gender. We'll be talking to their

34:37

family about how to best support their

34:39

child and how to make sure that

34:41

that child has the space and support

34:44

to explore their gender and do well

34:46

throughout their development. And we'll be

34:48

answering any parent questions. We do have questions

34:50

and so we answer those questions. The biggest

34:52

piece of advice I give parents is how

34:54

we're coming through the gender clinic. The

34:57

biggest thing you can do is to just be

35:00

supportive. Sometimes you might not understand. Sometimes you feel

35:02

like you don't know the terms. So you do

35:04

get exactly what the child means when they say that

35:07

they might be this gender. But the

35:09

biggest thing you can do is just love

35:11

your child and support them and just allow

35:13

them to express themselves. That's the biggest protector

35:15

as well against negative mental health effects

35:18

such as depression, suicidality, anxiety that

35:20

we worry about for our gender

35:22

diverse kids and young adults. So

35:24

that support from a parent is one

35:27

of the best protective factors and one

35:29

of the best things they can do. Frightening.

35:31

No, if you love your child you're not

35:33

going to feed into a delusion. If your

35:35

child starts expressing the idea that they are

35:37

in the wrong body you immediately

35:40

take it to the Lord. And then secondarily

35:42

as someone who's looking well to the ways

35:44

of their household you seek out a good

35:46

Christian counselor who can decide what is going

35:49

on within the heart and the mind of

35:51

that child. Because clearly that kind

35:53

of thinking is not normal, it's not right,

35:55

it's not healthy and it's not good. And

35:57

by the way, this gender doctor... at

36:00

a clinic in Massachusetts was talking about

36:02

children showing up as young as two

36:04

and three. I appeal to every grandparent

36:06

and every parent out there. Two to

36:08

three, they couldn't speak in

36:11

paragraphs at two. They didn't brush their

36:13

teeth on any regularity but they're going

36:15

to tell you I know my sexuality.

36:17

No, I'm sorry. That's just

36:20

totally completely bizarre. Well, there's even another bizarre

36:22

aspect of this. So loving your child enough

36:24

is being able to say, honey, we're going

36:26

to talk about this, we're going to pray

36:28

about this and we're going to get some

36:30

help because it sounds to me like you're

36:32

struggling with how you see yourself. So let's

36:34

see what we can do. Let's go on

36:36

a great adventure and together let's

36:38

really discover who you are. Don't run

36:40

to a hospital, don't swallow a bunch

36:42

of pills, don't cut off your body

36:44

parts. Let's start dealing with the broken

36:46

heart and mind. That's the real issue.

36:48

Back after this. So

37:10

you're seeing how propaganda works its way around

37:12

this issue. And again, remember, it makes the

37:14

United States embarrassingly out of step with the

37:16

rest of the world. By the way, again,

37:19

new research. This CAS review that came out

37:21

of the UK, which is a seminal study

37:23

by the way, and it's going to make

37:25

this House of Cards collapse because

37:27

facts as John Adams said are stubborn things.

37:29

So now you have this longitudinal study that's

37:31

peer reviewed and vetted and meets all the

37:33

criteria for good solid scientific research. It says

37:36

that most kids grow out of this. So

37:38

when you run your child to a clinic,

37:40

to a doctor and you're throwing pills down their throat,

37:42

you're doing irreparable damage and something that

37:44

they will probably outgrow, particularly if the

37:47

mental health issues are being addressed here.

37:49

So that puts again the United States at

37:51

odds with the rest of the world. But

37:54

not only that, it also gives light and

37:56

license to all kinds of absolutely bizarre ideas.

37:58

So there was a school district. in

38:00

Utah where the students there

38:02

were protesting because the school had a

38:05

policy that allowed furries

38:07

to terrorize other children. What is a furry? Well this

38:10

goes to this idea of identity. If you don't know

38:12

what a furry is, again it's this bizarre iteration that

38:14

says you see yourself going full

38:16

court press back to what we heard in the

38:18

propaganda film that was aired in the elementary school

38:21

in Georgia. You think of yourself as an animal.

38:23

I'm a dog, I'm a cat, and

38:25

somehow because that's an identity question the school goes,

38:27

well okay then you can come to school and

38:30

you can be a furry. Well

38:33

the students claim that the furries bite

38:36

them, bark at them, these are

38:38

other students by the way, pounce on them without

38:40

repercussion but if they defend themselves in any way

38:43

they get in trouble. Now these are

38:45

kids at a school in Utah.

38:47

Let them speak for themselves. Have a listen.

39:00

But they still wear them every day and they end

39:02

up in trouble. The person doesn't get to make them

39:04

get in trouble. What's

39:10

the point of dressing up like a furry? They

39:16

think they're so cool. So

39:20

people can come at them and look at them and

39:22

think they're so cool. Okay. Are you guys going

39:24

to be in trouble for walking out of school

39:26

today? No, maybe.

39:29

If we don't back on school grounds people

39:31

get in trouble. Hopefully

39:33

not. We're standing right here. Do

39:37

you have parents know you guys are out

39:39

here? Yes.

39:45

They attack us. If they bite us then

39:47

we can kick them. We get in trouble.

39:50

They attack us. How else do they attack you

39:52

guys? They bite us, they scratch

39:54

us, they bark at us. They

39:56

attack us. They

40:00

run on all fours and count on people. Why

40:02

are they spraying with Febreze? Because they

40:04

don't have any. And I remember, when

40:06

I was putting litter boxes in the

40:09

girl's bathroom, they were putting

40:11

litter boxes in. I

40:14

heard that was just a rumor. No,

40:16

it's true. Is it something

40:18

you've seen? Yeah. So

40:21

we can't talk or say anything to the birds or

40:24

even look at them, but they can come look

40:26

at us and they can say stuff to us and touch us.

40:29

We can't talk or say anything to them. We can't

40:31

talk or say anything to them. Interesting.

40:33

That sounds like a double standard to me. Yes.

40:36

Welcome to the Upside Down World. You

40:38

know, if you're going to allow feminine hygiene products in a

40:40

male's bathroom, which is happening in school bathrooms all across the

40:42

country, I'd follow suit

40:44

that you would allow a kitty litter box to be in a bathroom

40:46

as well. But more importantly,

40:48

you know, if you're going to bounce and jump

40:50

and bark and bite, you've

40:53

got some assault issues there that need to be addressed.

40:56

You have some behavior issues that need to be addressed. Is

40:58

it because the school administrators now are

41:00

just frozen with fear that because of

41:02

this Upside Down World in

41:04

which they do live, that you're afraid of lawsuits,

41:06

they see what happens. People lose their job. The

41:09

president, you know, is promoting this during his State

41:11

of the Union address. He's putting in policy. He's

41:13

sending out his minions from the Department of Justice.

41:15

By the way, we see this here even in

41:17

a school in Virginia where they're going to try

41:20

to get this school to enforce this whole pronoun

41:22

policy. A little school in Virginia and the federal

41:24

government is going to send their big guns down

41:26

there. It's ridiculous. But this is

41:28

the idea. This is what you'd learn your first

41:30

week in philosophy school, that ideas have consequences. Good

41:33

ideas have good consequences, and it follows suit that

41:35

bad ideas have bad consequences. So some of these

41:37

children at this school in Utah, and again, this

41:39

is not an isolated case. You're seeing this all

41:41

over the country. And by the way, I'm so

41:43

glad those kids told you about the litter boxes

41:45

because we've had people here in Washington that say,

41:48

oh, that's right-ring bladder. That doesn't

41:50

happen at all. These kids were quite exercised in

41:52

letting you know that, in fact, that's what they

41:54

saw in the bathrooms. But these

41:56

are ideas where they run amok, and these

41:58

bad ideas are not bad. ideas, by

42:00

the way, are taking away the decorum

42:03

of the classroom. You're feeding into a delusion.

42:05

You're facilitating inappropriate behavior in school. And I'm

42:07

not quite sure where character development is here.

42:09

And the teacher in me wants to go,

42:11

by the way, can you give me the

42:14

name of the state capital for the state of Wyoming?

42:16

I mean, I'm real glad we got litter boxes in

42:18

the bathroom. But how are you doing on those math

42:21

facts? And by the way, could you write a complete

42:23

sentence with good syntax and appropriate punctuation? But forgive me,

42:25

I'm old fashioned. I thought school was about education.

42:27

Your thoughts? Well, I

42:29

think there's been a breakdown in

42:31

leadership in terms of public education,

42:33

generally, because they've

42:36

had mission drift. Now, sometimes the drift

42:38

is intentional. You and I happen to

42:40

know that as a matter of fact, there are

42:42

some school superintendents of school districts and

42:44

principals who have a specific worldview.

42:47

And they believe that in fact,

42:49

their primary duty is not the

42:52

ability to have

42:54

spelling, reading, comprehension, mathematics,

42:56

and learning how to learn the

42:59

whole systematic study of learning how

43:01

to study so that when you

43:03

get out of school, you can

43:06

continue your self education, regardless

43:08

of what your station is in life,

43:10

or what your job occupation

43:13

happens to be, you become a more

43:15

productive citizen. The

43:18

mission drift sometimes is intentional. Sometimes,

43:20

Janet, this refusal to recognize

43:23

reality is out of fear of

43:25

being sued by the ACLU

43:27

or some of the other left-leaning

43:29

organizations. I wish they'd get more

43:31

legal advice from some clear

43:33

thinking legal organizations. I'll punt right

43:36

now to my group, ACLJ, but

43:38

there's at least a dozen other

43:40

groups that you have regularly on

43:42

your show that give good constitutional

43:44

advice to school districts, sometimes by

43:46

letters regardless of whether they want

43:48

to hear the advice or not,

43:50

about what authorities they have to

43:52

lay down reasonable guidelines

43:54

for the running of those schools.

43:56

So end this hours conversation on a

43:59

positive note. Christian moms and

44:01

dads are facing this reality, whether their child comes home

44:03

and says, hey, I think I may fill in the

44:05

blank, because it clearly has the

44:07

aspects of social contagion, uptick of 4,000%

44:10

of kids now who are saying that they

44:12

think they're in the wrong body. Encourage

44:14

Christian parents. What do they do? First of all, you

44:16

and I have seen over the

44:18

last few years a new, quiet,

44:22

peaceful revolution of parents saying, I

44:25

want to take my child back from some

44:27

of these programs that are destructive and harmful

44:29

and give input in education. So that's

44:32

a good sign. Number two, get on your

44:34

knees. The Bible has a lot to say

44:36

in Scripture about the important role of parents

44:38

to be able to set the role model.

44:41

You are the best Department of

44:44

Health, Education and Welfare your child will

44:46

ever have. God says it. In fact, the

44:48

Supreme Court has also said it. Exactly.

44:51

They follow God, not the other way around. By

44:53

the way, we do this for another hour. Hope you can

44:55

join us. If not, listen to the podcast that's in the

44:58

market with janetparshall.org. Thanks, friends. We'll see

45:00

you next time.
