Is this really happening? Have we just witnessed a transgender-themed Last Supper sketch in the opening ceremony? Have we just seen a man competing in the woman’s boxing category? Sadly, we have.
For some reason, the artistic directors of the Paris Olympics decided it was a good idea to promote a minority trans ideology to millions of viewers, including children. While doing so, they also thought it was a good idea to knock the Christian Church, who after all, are the pesky ones holding out against trans doctrines and need to be brought down a peg or two. It didn’t seem to occur to them that their colossal global audience wouldn’t actually enjoy such scenes as the majority are not in favour. Did the overt hypocrisy of “hating” one large group (those holding a level of Christian belief) in favour of another minority group not occur to them? If it did actually occur to them, could we be forgiven for suspecting they revelled at the controversy it would cause? Were they consciously aware that in the post-Christian, deconstructed Western world governed by the elites, none of the majority views matter anyway as it is them as the elites who know best and we all must be brought into conformity?
Did the Olympic officials not consider the risks of pitting a biological male against a woman in a boxing match? A male who had previously been banned from competing in the World Championships a year earlier for not meeting the gender eligibility standard. Was there any remorse when thousands witnessed Italian boxer Angela Carini quit after 46 seconds into the match with transgender Imane Khelif because she, “never felt a punch like this” and feared for her safety? Was there genuine remorse or was it an inconvenient causality that mustn’t be allowed to derail the ideology?
We at What in the World is Going On aim to highlight the patterns being utilised today with the patterns that have gone before us. To do this we use Biblical and historical records to undercover the root motivators, not just the external tip-of-the-iceberg visibles. In this act to reverse the heritage of the West, the root motivators are to de-sensitise a population so that transgenderism becomes a normalised, accepted behaviour. That is what this is about. The Apostle Peter writing in the first century succinctly describes the pattern:
Now the [Holy] Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron.
1 Peter 4:4
Identifying as what you say (woman, man, moon, cat) and not as what you scientifically are is a doctrine of demons. Broadcasting transgenderism to give the impression of it being the new normal is a means of searing the conscience of any willing to go along with it. The metaphor of a seared conscience is similar to the hide of an animal that has been branded with a hot iron, making it numb to further pain. A person with a seared conscience is therefore desensitised to moral pangs.
To pause the decay of the West, externally, we must refuse to accept all ideologies of the New Marxism. To reverse the decay and in doing so bring back rational, balanced thought, internally, we must return to God in our hearts.
