Sarah, your article on moral cowardice was absolutely brilliant and hits at the heart of the problem. One of the most detestable characteristics of modern society is the cancer of “evolving “ it is always in one direction. We live in a world that’s totally different than the one of our youth. For those who are old with good memories, it is horrifying. Evolving is really just an incremental falling away from our Lord, one day we wake up and realize, we are far from him.

I clearly remember as a child in the 1970's feeling appalled by the pictures in the newspaper of homosexual men parading in the streets in San Francisco. Many adults were saying: "just leave them alone; what harm can they do?" Well now we know. . .

Same here, and I knew then.. "leave a void in morality and Satan will TRANSform it into his deviant way."

Excellent. I forwarded it to my teenage son who is sympathetic to people with trans issues.

It has been said that we have lost the culture war. I don't believe that it's true. We've just temporarily surrendered it. And we did so without a collective fight and, surprisingly, in the spirit of the very morals we are lamenting the exploitation and loss of. What I especially appreciated about Sarah Cain's article is the manner in which she describes and gets to the very heart of the slippery slope of moral cowardice. To be sure, we were already collectively standing with one foot on a "cultural banana peel." How so? Cancel culture, political and legal double standards, a sympathetic and manipulative media system, woke politicians and business leaders all lending themselves to the public perception that resistance is futile - and can actually be quite harmful to you. Furthermore, cowardice is the only safe way forward. However, all is not lost! And it would be a shameful and undeserved disgrace heaped upon all of those who have gone before us in the name of their personal sacrifices for all of the successes we have enjoyed in this great nation. Doesn't that mean anything? It should. Sarah Cain nails it down with her observations and analysis of how we got here and where we are headed if we don't follow our inner moral compasses. We should it to heart

This is another one of their vile agendas.

The first ever elected openly transgender New Hampshire lawmaker is facing criminal charges for allegedly conspiring with her ex-girlfriend to gather sexually explicit photos of children, federal prosecutors announced this week.

“Stacie Marie Laughton, 39, of Nashua, N.H., was charged with one count of sexual exploitation of children – and aiding and abetting. Laughton will appear in federal court in Boston at a later date,” the US Attorney’s office said in a statement on Tuesday.

Laughton was arrested after a forensic investigation revealed over 10,000 text messages shared with her former partner, Lindsay Groves, a former daycare worker, that included sexually explicit images of children that appear to be between three and five years of age, as well as explicit descriptions of sex with each other and children.

Sadly, many of my family suffer from this disease of apathy.

Sarah thank you. You helped me think about this issue from an entirely new perspective. Your writing is eloquent, thoughtful and well reasoned. “You do you” is something I hear conservatives say all the time but you’re so right! We can do so much better.

This is an excellent piece! Brilliant the way you lay out the position and defend it! So well written and thought provoking.

I heard a great comment from a priest's homily on this subject. No matter what you think or what you want to become or mutilate yourself to somebody you want to be, in the end....God wins!! If you are true to yourself, you know what's right and what's wrong. Quit trying to fool yourself!! Again, great insights Sarah!!

We've already lost the culture war. Making adult gender transitions illegal is about as likely as making abortions illegal. All we can do now is to speak truthfully but kindly about their delusional nature, just as we warn about the murderous nature of abortion.

Increasingly, we are making abortions illegal. Don't give up fighting.

I disagree...

Never give up the good fight. If nothing else, we already know who won the battle on the cross and resurrection.
