France’s highest court last week rejected the notion of a “neutral” gender.

The ruling upheld a lower court’s decision denying a French citizen with a sex development disorder the right to use “neutral” as an official gender.

Sex is a powerful motivator. Millions of abused kids develop a pattern of sexual response that’s hard to break even when they know it is yucky. Millions of young adults cohabit, and some slide into marriage because they’re used to the sex even after the romance is gone. (The post-cohabitation divorce rate is apparently worse than the rate among those who have never lived together.)

More than 200 children under the age of 14 died in the United States in 2014 after being struck by a car. Another 8,000 suffered injuries, according to the National Center for Statistics and Analysis.

Anne Paulk is the executive director of Restored Hope Network, an ex-gay ministry made up primarily of former members of Exodus International, which dissolved in 2013. For many years, Anne and her ex-husband, John Paulk, were perhaps the most visible faces of the ex-gay movement. They wrote a book together called Love Won Out: How God’s Love Helped Two People Leave Homosexuality and Find Each Other. Though John Paulk renounced his ministry, abandoned his marriage, and came out again as gay, Anne Paulk continues her work in ex-gay ministry.

I received a letter from a WORLD Member:

“LGBT advocates tell us to be tolerant of their views. I would like to hear from one of their representatives how we should express our Christian views on their lifestyles. Let’s ask them to write down a critique from a conservative Biblical viewpoint that they would consider tolerant. Of course, it must not contradict clear Bible teaching. Do you think we could find someone who would do this?”

Since I’m asked questions like this often, I thought other WORLD Members could benefit from my response:

Britain’s largest teachers’ union thinks toddlers should be included in expanded compulsory LGBT education programs.

The National Union of Teachers (NUT) passed a motion Monday calling on British lawmakers to campaign for compulsory sex education classes and the “promotion of LGBT+ matters for all schools from nursery throughout all phases of state education,” according to The Times of London.

Classrooms will be a lot quieter than normal on Friday if the pro-LGBT education group GLSEN has anything to say about it.

GLSEN is promoting April 21 as a day of silence, during which students stay mum to show support for classmates who suffer bullying because of their sexuality or gender dysphoria. The group also is encouraging supporters to contact state governors to call for pro-LGBT school policies.
