Continued from Part II

Experts say that with all religious cults, the brainwashing process begins early and slowly gets people in the habit of complying. And from there, the screws are tightened as the requests become more and more outlandish.

The cult members gradually seem to lose all sense of self and can no longer rely on their own judgment. Isn’t that exactly what is happening with the young, innocent, naïve children who get caught up in the transgender cult?

Drag Story Hours and Camps

A cult religion tries to capture the minds and devotion of children starting when they are very young; it is the same for the transgender cult.

We have already read of the drag story hours that are popping up in libraries and other public facilities across our nation for children ages 3–11. Now there are drag children’s camps, such as one advertised in Seattle, Washington, that was held Aug. 8–12, 2022, at the museum for pop culture, only for boys ages 12–18. It was called “Drag-tastic Summer Camp, the Art of Drag.”

It advertised that you would get to explore “self expression,” “choose your name, explore hair and makeup techniques, and develop your character’s stage presence.” At the end of the camp, participants would get to celebrate their new “drag personas with a private showcase.” 

The stories that the drag storytellers tell and the songs and dances that they lead the children in are all very supportive of transgender ideology. They plant the seed in the child’s mind that this is all just fun and innocent, nothing to be afraid of. Then the child will be more receptive of going to a summer camp, where they will also be “groomed” to believe that being a transgender person would be acceptable, normal, and fun, and they would have no aversion to it.

Wouldn’t this make the child not at all afraid to be alone with such a drag person? Wouldn’t that make it so much easier for a pedophile to sexually molest an innocent child?

Gender Dysphoria

Is this the next step in the transgender religious conversion process? Even if the children do not get the message from a drag king or queen, as early as kindergarten in public schools they will hear that maybe they were “born in the wrong body.”

If a boy likes art or music or reading and does not like sports, maybe he is really a girl in a boy’s body. Girls are told that if they like wearing pants and not dresses, or like sports, maybe they are really a boy in a girl’s body.

The nice teachers at school are willing to help them transition to being the other sex. The teachers and the other students will call them by their new chosen names and pronouns. There is even a closet “dressing room” at school where they can change and wear other clothes for their preferred gender, and the clothes are available for them

Secrets Kept From Parents

What these gullible children are also told is that if the child’s parents are not willing to go along with the child’s transitioning, then “we will just have to keep it all secret from those old-fashioned, narrow-minded parents.” And if they fight you on this, we will find a nicer “chosen family” for you to be raised in.

Gender Fad

Kids—who may not really have any confusion as to who they really are—feel kind of left out. Some join in the gender dysphoria movement just wanting to be part of this latest fad.

Kids who are transitioning get all the attention. They are treated specially, so some kids just join in to be treated specially too. It is a game for them. But they don’t really want to be separated from their parents, as this game often leads to.

Drugs and Hormone Blockers

Often in a cult religion, drugs are involved. Members are told these drugs will “benefit” them or bring them to a “higher spiritual level” and make them “happier.” But they are really used to keep the members better sedated, devoted, and controlled.

Is that what all the costly prescribed puberty-blocking drugs, hormones, and antidepressants are doing to these children? The children may have to take them for the rest of their lives. These hormones will keep the person’s body transitioning forever, which will make the person a devoted follower of the cult religion of transgenderism forever (with a costly bill attached).

Sacrificial Cutting of Bodies and Rituals

Many ancient cult religions demanded the worshipping of idols with human sacrifices, especially of little children. In ancient Israel, they worshipped Moloch or Baal. In ancient Egypt, it was a variety of gods, and the same goes for the ancient Mayan and Aztec religion in America. The children would be placed on the altar of an idol god and burned to death, or the beating heart would be cut or pulled out of the live child.

As children with gender dysphoria grow older, they are encouraged by their teachers or counselors at school and even medical doctors to actually go through “reassignment surgeries” in which their bodies are cut. The breasts of a young teenage girl are surgically removed, or the penis and testes of a young boy are removed. Isn’t this similar to sacrificial cuttings of a pagan religion?

Threat of Suicide

If parents object, they are told that if they do not allow these surgeries to take place, the child will be so distraught that they will commit suicide. Children are also encouraged to give their parents this suicide message.

Transitioning girls are told to say, “Do you want a live son or a dead daughter?” Transitioning boys are told to say, “Do you want a live daughter or a dead son?” But as discussed in prior articles, research shows there is a much higher risk of suicide among those who have already transitioned, are miserable, and realize there is no going back.

Sexual Rites That Involve Children

All the cults I researched have something to do with sex. Usually, the leader of the group is involved in multiple sexual relationships and sets the example for everyone else. Often that involves sex with children.

Is that what is going on at the overnight drag camps for young kids? Or is that what will go on if children are taken out of their parents’ homes and put in a group home or foster care?

When you look at the private lives of drag queens and kings, you usually find that they are involved in promiscuity. Most of them are strippers at a local gay bar.

That is usually how they are noticed and asked to be part of the “story hour” presentations. That is where they receive their special training and are taught what to say so as to not frighten the parents or children.

As I pointed out in my series of articles about the protests against the drag story hours in Sonoma County, California, some drag queens have records as pedophiles.

Great Devotion or Veneration

Heads of pharmaceutical companies and medical doctors are either converted devotees to this cult mindset, believing these hormones or sacrificial cuttings will be beneficial to these children, or they are just devoted to the vast amount of money that all these reassignment surgeries and hormones are bringing in. It is a huge moneymaking enterprise, expected to bring in $5 billion to $11 billion in coming years.

State-Sanctioned Religious Cult

There are more and more laws being passed now (especially in California) that show that the state is supporting and even funding this religious cult of transgenderism—in total disregard for parental rights. Here are some of the bills going through the state legislature that will probably be passed and signed into law by Gov. Gavin Newsom:

AB 5: This bill would allow grants for teacher training so the teacher will “affirm” all LGBT identities and sexual behaviors, in spite of any harm to the children or conflict with the parents who disagree with the LGBT ideology.

AB 957: In a custody battle, the judge must always rule in favor of the affirming parent. The non-affirming parent will lose his or her right to raise the child.

SB 407: This will make it so that all foster parents must be affirming of the transitioning child or they will not be able to be foster parents. There is no exception for religious beliefs.

AB 665: This will allow all minors at age 12 to consent to their own mental health treatment without any parental consent or even notification.

AB 223: A child who wishes to have his or her gender changed officially in the courts can do so without any parental notification, and the courts will keep these records confidential.

A transgender cult religion should not be supported by the government. The First Amendment states: “Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of a religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.”

The state is thus not supposed to support one religion over another, or push one on us in such a way that we lose our parental rights if we do not go along with it. But here in California, the state is totally behind the religious cult of transgenderism, pushing school boards, principals, teachers, judges, foster parents, counselors, medical professionals, and, of course, children towards it, totally disregarding and disrespecting the wishes and religious beliefs of the parents.
