It won’t stick, because the truth is, it’s not just about facts.

The Bible tells us “God is not the author of confusion, but of peace” (1 Corinthians 14:33). But the enemy is the master of confusion, and that confusion spreads when people reject truth for feelings.

Scripture also says, “Evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived” (2 Timothy 3:13). The world will keep getting darker. That’s not pessimism, that’s prophecy. And we can’t stop prophecy any more than a man can change his chromosomes from XY to XX and become a woman, or vice versa.

So I gotta stop wasting my breath trying to fix what’s already written. I just stand firm, speak truth with compassion, and stay clear minded enough to see what’s real and what’s just confusion in a costume.

Y’all have at it. ����
Words from the son of an Alpha Man Lol! I’m messing with you PB. I agree. What do you mean it’s not about the facts though? I thought CG was over here kickin scientific facts and knowledge. For real.

Right, but the debates about chromosomes, biology, or logic don’t work for some people, because the problem isn’t a lack of information. The real problem is spiritual blindness and confusion. It’s a heart issue, not just a brain issue. Some people know the facts but don’t want them, because accepting reality would mean giving up the comforting lie that feelings override truth.

The Bible says “Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools…” (Romans 1:22). Meaning people can have facts in front of them but reject the truth for their own desires.

2 Timothy 4:3 says “For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears.” That means people want voices that affirm the confusion, not voices that call it out.

So yeah, CG is putting real knowledge out there, no sugar coating, and I stand with her 100% on that. But you can see it goes in one ear and right out the other for some folks. She can show people chromosomes, science, logic, biology, but if they’re committed to an ideology that feels good, they’ll ignore all of what she said.

The root is spiritual deception, and only truth plus discernment can fix that, not just throwing more data at them. You can’t debate someone out of a confusion they’re spiritually clinging to.

Facts don’t change a heart that wants the lie, brother.

I hear you. Now I have a complete understanding of why back in the day when folks on here would reply to a post of yours with something you didn’t agree with, you’d always say “oh ok” or not reply at all LOL

For real though, those hidden messages is why I struggle to read the Bible. You must read it a lot.

Yeah, I’ll reply with either “ok” or no response at all. Not every battle needs a reply, sometimes silence is wisdom. Some people have eyes but can’t see and ears but don’t hear. That’s why you can hand them truth all day, but they’ll stay blind.

Speaking of weird, there’s this dude who comes into the same Starbucks I hit on my way to work here. He’s an older guy, about 65-70. He’s got a white beard and mustache, kind of like Santa Claus or whatnot, but he has women’s breasts — large breasts. He also wears women’s clothes. He was normal at first, was gone for a minute, then came back with breasts. I wouldn’t even have a conversation with somebody like that.

I order online and grab my coffee and go, normally. But it was a small line this time. He spoke (tried to start a conversation), and I just gave him a halfway up quick wave, grabbed my coffee and left. I’m not having a conversation with somebody like that. Something has got to be off upstairs. These folks need help.

LMAO! St. Nick with a rack.

I’m going to start identifying myself as “mute” around those weirdos. For real. That means don’t bring your weird ass over here and say shit to me.

So, you don’t have to treat anyone like trash, but you also don’t owe anyone agreement with something you don’t believe in, Phrozen. I mean, you can nod, give a polite wave, and move on. Right? Being civil doesn’t mean you have to pretend biology bends, that’s just called having clear, healthy boundaries. Know what I mean?
