Here is the latest madness coming from the Modern world!
Pentagon Issues Transgender Handbook for Military Service Members
St. Nilus: After the year 1900, toward the middle of the 20th century, the people of that time will become unrecognizable. When the time for the Advent of the Antichrist approaches, people's minds will grow cloudy from carnal passions, and dishonor and lawlessness will grow stronger. Then the world will become unrecognizable.
People's appearances will change, and it will be impossible to distinguish men from women due to their shamelessness in dress and style of hair. These people will be cruel and will be like wild animals because of the temptations of the Antichrist. There will be no respect for parents and elders, love will disappear, and Christian pastors, Bishops and priests will become vain men, completely failing to distinguish the right-hand way from the left.
At that time, the morals and traditions of Christians and of the Church will change. People will abandon modesty, and dissipation will reign. Falsehood and greed will attain great proportions, and woe to those who pile up treasures. Lust, adultery, homosexuality, secret deeds and murder will rule in society.
The Department of Defense should be about one thing and one thing only: Defense. Instead, it’s now in the business of sensitivity training and “re-educating” service men and women on the myriad pronouns one might fancy using if one is transgender. The Weekly Standard shares details of the DoD’s new guidebook for transgender service members, released
just before a deadline that would see the military provide gender reassignment and transition medical care to service personnel. The “administrative management tool” is replete with official pronouns and, according to TWS, “defines key terms, such as ‘gender dysphoria.'” There are also entries about how to deal with bullying. An excerpt from the guidebook reads: CONTINUE

DAYS OF LOT – Bisexual identity overtaking gay and lesbians in Britain
It is the latest evidence pointing to a shift in attitudes towards sexuality, with increasing numbers viewing their own position as somewhere on a spectrum rather than it being a black-or-white question. A survey by YouGov published last year found that half of young people, and almost a quarter of the population overall, define themselves as something other than 100 per cent heterosexual. READ MORE
EU orders British press NOT to reveal when terrorists are Muslims…
A report from the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance
(ECRI) found there was an increase in hate speech and racist violence in
the UK from 2009 to March 2016. Blaming the press, ECRI Chair Christian
Ahlund, said: “It is no coincidence that racist violence is on the rise
in the UK at the same time as we see worrying examples of intolerance
and hate speech in the newspapers, online and even among politicians.”
The report makes a whopping 23 recommendations to Theresa May’s Government for changes to criminal law, the freedom of the press, crime reporting and equality law. And despite the report not analysing coverage of the historic Brexit vote, Mr Ahlund saw fit to comment on the UK’s decision to leave the EU. READ MORE

DAYS OF NOAH – Selecting sperm by app fuels twisted eugenic fantasy of ‘perfect’ child…
The truth is that ginger hair is an acquired taste – for every Nicole Kidman or Lily Cole there’s a Chris Evans ready to diffuse the red is beautiful algorithm.

beatings, prison, and sometimes death sentences,” the Center for Inquiry, which set up the first event in 2009, said in a statement on Monday. “Sometimes religious militants make their own laws, deciding for themselves that expressions of dissent justify brutal killings, like the grisly murders of secularists in Bangladesh, or attacks on religious minorities in Pakistan,” the group added.
