The Increase in Number of Genders

-

Some say that the LGBT acronym should be made more inclusive – a prime and overarching value today – so as to include other possibilities. One proposal is LGBTQQICAPF2K+. Here is what the new proposed acronym stands for:

L – lesbian

G – gay

B – bisexual

T – transgender

Q – queer

Q – questioning

I – intersex

C – curious

A – asexual

A – agender

A – ally

P – pansexual

P – polysexual

F – friends and family

2 – two-spirit

K – kink

+ - the possibility of more, to be added later.

By including ‘allies’ and ‘friends and family,’ LGBTQQICAPF2K+ is so inclusive that it includes heterosexuals!

Meanwhile the number of genders keeps multiplying. A website devoted to keeping track of the number of genders currently lists fifty-six, with the provision for continually adding more. These include:

Adamasgender: a gender which refuses to be categorized

Aerogender: a gender that is influenced by your surroundings

Affectugender: a gender that is affected by mood swings

Agender: the feeling of no gender/absence of gender or neutral gender

Amaregender: a gender that changes depending on who you’re in love with

Cisgender: the feeling of being the gender you were assigned at birth, all the time (assigned (fe)male/feeling (fe)male)

Demi-smoke: A transcendental, spiritual gender roughly drifting to other genders that are unable to be foreseen and understood, shrouded in darkness within your inner visual. Elevating through mystery. Caused b y a lack of inner interpretation and dark emotional states.

Egogender: a gender that is so personal to your experience that it can only be described as ‘you’

Espigender: a gender that is related to being a spirit or exists on a higher or extradimensional plane

Genderpunk: a gender identity that actively resists gender norms

Hydrogender: a gender which shares qualities with water

Mirrorgender: a gender that changes to fit the people around you

Multigender: the feeling of having more than one simultaneous or fluctuating gender

Vapogender: a gender that sort of feels like smoke; can be seen on a shallow level but once you go deeper, it disappears and you are left with no gender and only tiny wisps of what you thought it was.

“Advocates are insisting that the language be changed to reflect this new gender ideology. Gender is embedded in most languages, though not all. In German, every noun has a gender. English lacks grammatical gender but retains gender distinctions in pronouns, instead of saying ‘he’ or ‘she,’ those who are ‘gender fluid’ or otherwise object to such binary gender might prefer ‘they,’ since plural pronouns do not have different forms for gender. But using a plural form for a singular is confusing and ungrammatical. The neutral ‘it’ also lacks gender distinction, so some prefer that, though others object that ‘it’ is impersonal. So some gender activists are making up new pronouns: ne/nem/nir/nirs/nemeself; ve/ver/vis/viv/verself; ey/em/eir/eir/eirself; ze/zir/zir/zirs/zirself; xe/xem/xyr/xyrs/xemself” (p. 134).

People of Wisdom (Proverbs 1)

-
"Wisdom cries  aloud in the street, in the markets she raises her voice; at the head of the noisy streets she cries out; at the entrance of the city gates she speaks" (Proverbs 1:20-21).  Reading verses like the above tells us that the kind of faith taught in the Bible is not something private. This is contrary to what most people think today saying that when you talk about the things of God or matters of religion, you should keep it personally either in your home or in your local church, or you just talk about it during Sunday.  The introductory chapter of the book of Proverbs tells us that wisdom calls in public space. This teaches us that the whole of society cannot escape the call of God. To ignore such call will certainly reap disastrous consequences.  How about if the people of God Himself who supposed to live such wisdom are the ones undermining it? We do this either by disconnecting our faith from our public lives or by consenting to the ruling social norms thinking t

Ownership

-
The first chapter is all about ownership. By discussing this topic, the author starts with the doctrine of creation. For him, this doctrine separates his approach from all other approaches by other economists. By insisting on the importance of the doctrine of creation to economics, he argues that the universe, man, economic laws, and economic growth are not autonomous. The doctrine of creation establishes the idea of original ownership , which belongs to God alone as explicitly stated in Psalm 24:1–2 and many other biblical passages. And since it is God who created the world, He is therefore the original and absolute Owner of everything. The idea therefore of ownership is basically theocentric. This tells us that the economic concept of ownership is ultimately a theological idea. The concept of ownership cannot be properly understood apart from God as the ultimate Owner of all things. Providence is another corollary doctrine that cannot be separated from the doctrine of creation. Thi

The Special Duties of Husbands to their Wives

-
Fulfill your duties to your wife in order to avoid the following unhappy results: Failure of your wife to fulfill her duties towards you Such will cause you much affliction She will be bitter towards you in the end Summary of your Duties as Christian Husbands: You are responsible to undertake the government of your family including your wife. This ability consists: In holiness and spiritual wisdom. An ungodly, irreligious man is both a stranger and an enemy to the most important part of family-government. In due acquaintance with the works of your calling. He that is utterly unacquainted with the members of his family, will be very unfit to govern them. He must be acquainted both with the common temper and infirmities of mankind, that he may know how much is to be borne with, and also with the particular temper, and faults, and virtues of those whom he is to govern. And he must have prudence to give them direction in accomplishing their tasks; and justice to deal with every one as they
