Dear Robyn,

That is a very interesting point. Around 2016, this was rising in my middle school, and a young colleague remarked, 'Where did this all come from all of a sudden? I never heard about it in college" (and she was about one year out). Has there been an explosion of gender dysphoria in youth? Is there a chemical constituent of this situation? So I now must ask, "What new vaxxes were given to children starting around 2002-3?"

Robyn - Good questions. I suggest the answers to "why" some young people lean this way or that in terms of gender and sexual attractions, I suggest the one answer book I find that puts things into real perspective - the Bible. It portrays us as all having inherited various sinful tendencies and areas of strengths and weaknesses built into our souls from birth. Each one a unique blend. But the Bible doesn't stop by showing us the nature of sin within each of us which longs for any number of perverse expressions, beginning with prideful selfishness/ambtion and preoccupation with self, and going on from there. But it completes the picture by revealing the solution and presenting the Deliverer, and there could be no other explanation nor counsel for our questions about our own tendencies than to gather God's revealed wisdom of truth to ourselves and begin to apply these God-given resources of truth by faith and let God do what only God can do with our own very fractured and cracked pots of clay. We keep on trying to bend the rules to adapt, but truth never changes. It is a constant, and it does not originate from within one's self, but resides in God Who IS Truth. He's inviting us into fellowship, but we somehow think He will bend the truth to accomodate what only grace and mercy can accomodate. I knew from the moment we legitimized gay marriage that we were on a fast tract to destroy God's design of humanity and family, and I told my wife that transgenderism and bestiality would soon follow, along with every other form of perversion of God's great design for people. Totally predictable, and it didn't take long. Why can't people connect the dots?? I suspect it has to do with rejection of the one Law Giver Who can't be bought, co-opted or corrupted. Lots of love - Mike
