The transgender movement has fomented the deception that a person’s birth sex is “fluid” and can be changed at will. This is a lie they want everybody to believe. Yes, a person’s external physical appearances can be changed, but the internal mental and physical differences are vastly different between male and female and they cannot be changed through surgery or drugs. The Bible says that in the beginning God created “male and female,” and those distinctions are not just physically visible on the outside.
During the 2022 address to the Federation of State Medical Boards, assistant secretary of health Rachel Levine, a trans woman, exclaimed: “There is substantial misinformation about gender affirming care for transgender (youth)… the country is facing an onslaught of anti-LGBTQI+ actions at the state levels across the United States… The positive value of gender-affirming care for youth and adults is not in scientific or medical dispute, and we need to use our clinicians voice to collectively advocate for our tech companies to create a healthier, cleaner information environment” This address came after multiple conservative states began to restrict what many doctors and scientists believe to be unethical and harmful genital mutilation of our young. Though the first part of Levine’s statement could be considered a misguided opinion, her claim that the “positive value” of sex change treatment for minors is “not in scientific or medical dispute” was fraudulent and demands redress. This lie is used to censor opposing voices fighting for children. It’s time to end the destructive illusion of scientific consensus for censorship. Let me explain.
First, Levine’s claims on this subject are clearly scientifically unsound. Congressman Warren Davidson put it best in his Tweet responding to Levine: “Admiral (Levine) asserts “need” for Ministry of Truth. To deny this: xy does not equal xx. It Takes male & female to reproduce. Every egg is x. Sperm is y or x. At conception (save exceedingly rare cases), the baby human is xy (male) or xx (female). Nothing changes reality. Embrace the science.” Contrary to Levine’s claims, there is absolutely no “consensus” in favor of minor sex change procedures. Among others, Sweden, Finland, the UK, and Florida have reviewed the data and all come to the same conclusion the alleged benefits of sex change treatment do not outweigh the risks for youth suffering gender distress. The primary advocate of minor sex change “treatment”, the American Association of Pediatrics (AAP) has unfortunately become politicized to the progressive left. It bases its position supporting “gender affirming treatment” for youths on one non-peer reviewed article which misrepresents the research and omits all studies which undermine the position. Additionally, the AAP suppresses all efforts by disagreeing pediatricians for a systematic review of the alleged AAP research on the topic. Of note, the AAP has been previously shown wrong in its guidelines on ubiquitous minor Covid masking, and school closures, primarily positions supporting the progressive left.
The bottom line is that the alleged “scientific” support for sex change procedures for our young (including permanent removal of minor breasts and penises) is lacking in true science and politically tainted. To censor debate on this topic, as Levine demands, is to risk countless children to having their lives ruined. Former Navy SEAL, Chris Beck, was encouraged by the Progressive left, including clinicians who pushed him into sex change procedures that ruined his life. He has come out publicly to tell American schoolchildren the treatment “destroyed my life”. According to Beck “I was never transgender, male to female, or female to male, or anything… For me, transgender did not exist. I had gender dysphoria and I had unnecessary surgeries”.
Unfortunately for America, the fraudulent illusion of scientific consensus has become the norm on the Left. In October 2020, the fraudulent expert “consensus” among the top 51 retired intelligence officials, including former heads of the CIA and DIA, was that the Hunter Biden laptop was “Russian Disinformation”. This statement was used to support big tech and media censoring and discrediting the story all admit was no Russian disinformation.
The dynamic of the illusion of consensus was in high gear during COVID and allowed for mistakes, including draconian mask and lockdown policies, to cause much harm. With the Wuhan lab leak theory, the illusion of scientific “consensus” against the lab leak theory was ruthless. According to Fox News: “The scientists who supported the (lab leak) theory had research papers rejected, and the media branded them conspiracy theorists… Lord Matt Ridley, author of the book ‘Viral: The Search for the Origin of COVID-19,’ told Fox News that funding was also a motive for silence. “Senior scientists were quietly saying to me, ‘We think you’re right that it does need to be taken seriously, but we don’t say so because the funding agencies might give us a hard time’ German physicist Roland Wiesendanger called this move a betrayal. “If famous and top virologists are not sticking to the truth anymore, then we have no basis in science anymore to make progress.”
Americans can no longer tolerate the Progressive tactic of the illusion of consensus used to end debate. It has been catastrophic for America and continues to destroy not only dissenters of the party line, but the nation. The future of our children is now at stake, with SEAL Chris Beck and others warning of “ruined lives” in following Levine’s claims of “consensus” in favor of youth sex changes. The God who created us man and woman and who established the order of the universe will not be mocked. His Truth must be allowed to penetrate the darkness in America.
