Theodore Dalrymple, senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, has said one of the ways in which neo-Marxist social justice totalitarians exert control is by humiliating people into admitting or professing that something is true which they know is not true. Forcing them to say things they know are false is the ultimate exertion of power and control.
Dalrymple's view got me thinking about how "trans" language has amassed power and control over so many, including people of faith who carelessly use words they know cannot be true. The "social justice totalitarians" of which Dalrymple speaks have been enforcing the use of language we know is false and not representative of God's biblical design of men and women.
As a believer who has recovered from the false beliefs of "trans" ideology and now helps others, I've learned that my language must be truthful to honor and glorify God. Speaking truth can bring people out of identity confusion into a relationship with Jesus, where they will find what has been missing -- true identity, redemption, and restoration.
For starters, consider the word "transgender." Immutable biological science proves the word "transgender" is false because nobody biologically changes genders. Transitioning from one gender to the other is impossible. That absolute truth gets buried under the cascade of false language that follows: "transition," "detransition," "gender assigned at birth."
