The slogan “love is love” seems to show up everywhere.

Behind the slogan is an assertion: that the sincerity of affection is enough to justify any relationship, especially same-sex relationships, and that’s enough for that relationship to be called “marriage.”

After all, who’s to say who can and can’t love each other? And why should people who are in love, as long as they are consenting adults, be prevented from being married if that’s what they want? And why should consenting adults be prevented from being married if that’s what they want?

However, “love is love” assumes all kinds of things about love that just aren’t true.

An argument that is often used to justify radical ideologies about gender and sexuality today is the existence of so-called “third” genders in various cultures throughout history. “Third gender” refers to individuals who did not fully conform to the male and female norms of their cultures.

What Would You Say?

The next time someone claims that “even ancient cultures encouraged trans-identities,” remember these three things:

1. The label “third gender” is an anachronism forced upon people who actually presumed the reality of biological sex, gender roles, and the so-called “gender binary.”
2. Like so-called “third genders,” modern transgender ideology also relies on the “gender binary” that it claims to reject.
3. Ancient cultures didn’t always get it right.

You’re in a conversation and someone asks: “Should Christians support Black Lives Matter?”

What would you say?

It is absolutely true that black lives matter. Christians believe that because all people are made in the image of God, everyone has dignity and equal value. And it’s important to affirm that truth for specific groups who feel their value and dignity have not been recognized or have even been denied.

However, we need to distinguish between the truth of the phrase “black lives matter,” and the organization that goes by the same name. The next time you’re talking about racial justice and someone says Christians should support Black Lives Matter, remember these 3 things:

1. The Black Lives Matter Movement is all about “Black Power.”

2. The Black Lives Matter Movement is radically pro-abortion.

3. The Black Lives Matter Movement is fundamentally dishonest.

As a Supreme Court nominee, Ketanji Brown Jackson was asked to define “woman.” She responded, “I’m not a biologist.”

That was just a week after a biological male won the NCAA women’s swimming championship.

Ironically, many who remained silent on what a woman is during the NCAA championship have not been silent regarding the potential loss of the so-called “right” to abortion.

You’re in a conversation and someone says, “People can decide if they’re a boy, girl, or nonbinary because sex is just something assigned at birth.”

What Would You Say?

When confronted with this comment, remember that neither science nor logic support the idea that sex is assigned at birth and here are three reasons why:

1. A person’s sex is acknowledged, not assigned.
2. Sex is determined by our reproductive system.
3. Disorders of sexual development do not create new categories of sex.
