Those in poorer countries don't engage in trying to change their sex nor their species. They acknowledge differences between the sexes and structure their lives according to these realities. This should give us pause.
Sarah, I enjoy your videos and voice blogs , you are such a wonderful young woman of God! I love how you point out the truth!
This reminds me of the smaller countries who do not have the money to pay a bus fare, to go to the doctor! They therefore, have the faith that God will heal and they don’t fill up their bodies with the poison that is in big pharma drugs. In the mission fields these people are thankful for an aspirin, even if they have cancer!
Amazing how here in America with the many blessings we have, we are prone to feel we are entitled to whatever we can dream about. Sad
Your video reminded me of “Anthrocon” - an annual convention held in Pittsburgh where the “Anthropomorphic” (people dressed in animal costumes) a.k.a. “furries” gather - hundreds of them - for four days to dress up and act out in public. It’s not only a first-world thing but also - as you say a wealth-thing - escapism for those who can afford to purchase these expensive outfits and take a few days off work. Near the Pittsburgh convention center are shelters for men and women experiencing homelessness, who, like me, must look at the “furries,” scratch their heads, and simply wonder.
Interesting parallels. The word ‘furries’ is popping up everywhere lately in connection to lbgt and satanic behaviors, and it bears remembering it’s scientific name. The dictionary points out that “anthropomorphism” has dark ancient roots in storytelling and art - which is a reminder to Christians that, ever since the fall of mankind in the garden of Eden, ‘there is NOTHING new to mankind under the sun’ [“What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.” Ecclesiastes 1:9]. Has Satan been getting more evil in his role as prince of this earth? Or has he been so successful in destroying mankind that he has again moved from hiding his deeds in the shadows to flaunting them in the public square - as he did in Sodom and Gomorrah before God judged their inhabitants as irredeemably wicked and destroyed them?
The self indulgent attitude of western society, as you described, is going to comeback and bite them in the Gluteus Maximus if they do not stop this Treaty below from being implemented all over the world.
The W.H.O. Is a Real and Present Danger by David Bell for the Brownstone Institute - 11 July 2023.
World Health Organisation (WHO)’s Pandemic Preparedness Treaty.
There is the suffering of just being alive, which is to say, hunger, dehydration, hot or cold weather, common injuries, illnesses, being attacked by wild animals or insects, or eating rotten food... but then there is a level up from there. It's one thing to sort out the regular discomforts in life (which many people have covered, air conditioning, heat, plenty of cheap food, medicine, and never going outside to avoid mosquitos, bee stings and dog bites.) Now there are other things we have to deal with that cause an endless amount of suffering...even from childhood, that an individual cannot hope to prepare for or predict.
The immediate level, the natural one is one thing, but then there is parental abuse of children, crime on your street, scams, cars breaking down, getting fired, being falsely accused of crimes, being mugged, carjacked or shot at, harassment of all kinds, all sorts of abuses... but this level isn't the worst of it now... as if we didn't have enough problems... now the next level is tyranny. Mandatory medications that aren't technically medications, accusations of all sorts which lead to possible charges of crimes in some countries, inability to organize life reasonably to the point you owe taxes, fees, fines, and orders from governments to make it even more difficult to own or even live on your own property, all sorts of regulations and bans and illegalities, making life even more difficult than 'normal.'
It's hard to believe anybody has time to even consider 'gender' let alone some of the nonsense people devote their lives to on the internet, going after other people, attacking other people, spreading rumors and lies, and so on, I don't have one second to think about genders, dating, the opposite sex, marriage, let alone abortion, or all sorts of issues that people think about all the time. Life is work, spend, recover, try not to get attacked when running errands, hope you don't get a flat tire, or somebody doesn't smash your car, and if there's time to get lunch. Piling on more political problems on a life like mine is more stress on top of it all. There just isn't time. Yet, I can see the moral implications of all the issues people discuss, I've seen them all my life. Based on what I've experienced so far, and how much time I probably have left, certain political issues just fall off my radar and awareness, even though I know, there will be plenty of people out there who will have to deal with them and there's nothing I can do about any of them. If one or two pieces fall out of my life, the whole thing will come crashing down... as millions out there live in the same predicament. Clearly, the wealthy have time for all sorts of weirdness, and clearly that is also negatively affecting society... but they have the cash to keep going even though the new depression era comes to destroy even more lives. It's truly astonishing, and if anybody out there has the fortune to live their lives leisurely, well, take note, it would seem either luck, fortune or God has your back. Be grateful, be extra thankful, and realize what time you have to do good. The only reason I do good, is I see there isn't much time left, and there's not much I could accomplish to change a thing in this world. If you find your prayers actually work, keep praying. If you find that God listens, keep talking, if you find that fellow souls listen, keep talking to them. I do not have such luck, therefore I commit acts of "mischievous good" because there is neither the people around me nor the time to 'have' people in my life. I find it so bizarre that anyone today is trying to change their sex as if that's going to make 'life' better... even a tattoo is a waste of time and money to me. I don't spend a lot of time asking God for forgiveness, I ask for more time... not life, mind you, time.... in one single day... time....
I hate to bring this up, and I agree with you, but there is of course, prison. Yes, the wealthy seem to go insane, at the top, but the very bottom isn't just being poor, it's being in prison, and as it turns out, prison society operates in a hellish world that appears to produce the very same thing. Either that's just plain odd, or it means there is a middle. The wealthy, the working poor, criminal convicts in prisons. Does that say anything to you, or am I way off course? In John Wick, the people of the world of the High Table say, "We left that world for the good life." John Wick says, "No, we left the good life a long time ago." Once you are caught up among the wealthy, you might as well have been caught up with prison convicts.
Please keep these up, Sarah. Your essays are a breath of fresh air.
In modern times, through science and technology, the rich nations of the West have almost realized for many of their citizens the ancient dream of escaping the seemingly intractable drudgery and jeopardy of subsistence living that has been the experience of most human beings through history. In fact, some who celebrate the coming of artificial intelligence suggest that we may have to reimagine human life without limitations. Even liberation from death, they say, may be just around the corner for all humankind—and this despite the fact, as the UN reports, that more people live today in abject slavery than at any other time in human history. That is an amazing and chilling irony, a dark fact that speaks of a darkness nestled within the human mind despite whatever the technologically advanced human soul might optimistically think. Though the idea is unpopular today, Christian theology has a name for this darkness—original sin.
But modern technology in the affluent West has allowed a great many of the well-fed and economically secure young to experience their lives in a way unprecedented in human history. In fact, many of them feel that they are entitled to possess, do, or become anything they might wish. They have been told that this is their right; consequently, they can ignore as myth the subterranean intimations of a relentless darkness within, dismissing the thought that such darkness might actually influence their desires and behavior. Of course, Aquinas these days is no more popular than the idea of original sin.
If anything characterizes contemporary times, it is an astonishing lack of self-awareness mixed with an unjustified and off-putting self-confidence that easily devolves into tantrums in the face of frustration. If technology and medicine empower young people to imagine themselves liberated from the real and routine threats of want, physical injury, and disease that ever attended their forebears, then their imaginations become free to conceive of other “unfair” limitations. It is their “right” to have these removed, too. For example, “Why do I need skills and experience to get a high-paying job,” or “My body’s sex or species does not match my mind’s imagined sexual or species identity.” Could such imaginings be evil? That is not even a consideration. Again, original sin is simply not a popular idea.
In 1956, “Forbidden Planet” debuted on American theater screens. It was a science fiction cautionary tale that has become an honored classic. Altair 4 was a faraway planet that was once the home of the Krell, intelligent beings who had created a peaceful, beneficent, high-technology civilization. But that civilization had disappeared, leaving only an underground, self-sustaining, energy-generating complex—an amazing scientific and cultural mystery on a planetary scale. The planetary civilization of the Krell, however, had vanished suddenly, seemingly in one night. Any surface trace of its existence had long ago crumbled to dust.
And that was the puzzle. As the story unfolds, the reason for that civilization’s destruction proved to be a mix of its own technology and unreflective hubris. The science of the Krell had created a source of power that the mind of each Krell could access, allowing unlimited energy to be turned to achieve any purpose a Krell mind might conceive. This, of course, represents the ultimate liberation from drudgery and want. It is a magical utopia where all wishes can be granted—the stuff of myth. Whatever a Krell might wish or desire, his mind could grant simply by imagining it. This is truly godlike power over nature, and the story’s plot is not an accident. The literary inspiration for the movie was Shakespeare’s “The Tempest.”
The highly advanced Krell, however, did not consider that a sullen darkness might lie hidden within their supremely developed intellects. They could not imagine that beneath their cultivated reason lurked a raging, mindless beast, a beast whose very presence had been successfully suppressed by millennia of ethical and beneficent civilization. But the beast was still there. What the Krell saw in their premier technical achievement was civilized reason’s employment of unlimited energy to create and give life; what the mindless primitive lurking within the Krell’s soul perceived was lustful rage’s opportunity to destroy and kill. Not understanding the danger, the Krell activated their civilization’s technical triumph and unleashed an irreversible nightmare.
Now undisciplined by any constraints of reality on the imagination, fantasy’s access to unlimited power proved to be universally lethal. In one night, the Krell race destroyed its civilization and itself. And that is the movie’s warning. For imagination does not have to be fueled by super-science in order to be lethal. A lack of self-awareness may be enough. Howling mindlessly in a train station implies a similar unreflective lust to destroy civilization, and this typically requires foolish people who enjoy privilege yet despise their own culture. Despite their advantages, they are the barbarians within the gates. Their frustrated imaginings reflect the fires of ruin and destruction. Once given power, their imaginations will make their lethal fantasies a reality. In contrast, those struggling to ensure the survival of their families, even in the face of hardship, imagine better lives for their children, not civilization on fire. And they more readily seek God, for they are mindful of their weaknesses and grateful for what they have. So they live, work, and create. They know the prodding of original sin, that inner darkness that invites disaster. They understand that it is there and know its deceptive power. But they resist the prodding. Their moral discipline? For many, it is faith and prayer, most certainly. But in addition, they are too busy humbly serving others by making things work—such as train stations. As Christ’s example teaches, humble service, not personal power, is light in the darkness, for Christ’s spirit shines in such service.
The last bit about people helping one another is an important factor in navigating life in the coddled west. You may not have any real problems in your life, for a variety of reasons stemming from the general wealth and safety prevalent in the western world. But you can avoid the "I need to suffer somehow, so I'll pretend to be a dog" trap by volunteering to help people who DO have real needs. Any church youth group worth anything puts a heavy emphasis on community service--getting teenagers into contact with the disabled and the needy so comfortable kids can see that not everybody is. If you forget yourself and choose to serve others, it immunizes you against the soul-rot brought on by indolence.
Great "howling like dog" video. I like this article too! I wonder if such extreme behaviour is even more sinister than it appears. What if it is cover? I alluded to this earlier, in the temptation to call all undesirable behaviour leftist. The greater worry comes from the just left of centre, not the extreme left. The Malthusian threat is not from people who pretend to be dogs, or even from men pretending to be women. Don't look there, look here. As tactic.
Excellence article Sarah. I know in my own life that the times where I felt closer to God was when I or my family were struggling and in need of His guidance and strength. Too many young people today take so much for granted and have far too much time on their hands when they should be seeking their true path in life.
Sarah, I enjoy your videos and voice blogs , you are such a wonderful young woman of God! I love how you point out the truth!
