Today we're talking about the Senate's passing of the Respect for Marriage Act and how Christians should respond. We look at the reasons why this bill is so dangerous for religious liberty and discuss our utter disappointment in the weak Republicans who voted this in. Then, we're joined by Pedro Gonzalez, associate editor at Chronicles: A Magazine of American Culture, to discuss his new report, "The Transgender Leviathan," which is a deep dive into the world of trans culture and ideology. We discuss how lucrative the transgender medical industry is, who is profiting from "gender-affirming care," specifically surgeries and drugs that ruin young peoples' bodies, and why exactly these entities feel incentivized to keep encouraging these "treatments." We cover the story of John Money's horrific experiments on David Reimer, a boy raised as a girl under medical advice. We talk about how it's both Democrats and Republicans who have contributed to this issue and ask how conservatives should respond and what we can do.\n\n---\n\nTimecodes:\n\n(00:56) Christmas merch\n(03:48) Respect for Marriage Act\n(23:10) Interview with Pedro begins\n(34:00) Lupron\n(43:45) David Reimer and John Money\n(59:25) Bipartisan contribution\n\n---\n\nToday's Sponsors:\n\nGenucel \u2014 go to genucel.com/ALLIE and get the skincare package for 75% off.
