Last Friday the US military\u00a0decided to delay enlisting those who identify as transgender, with Secretary of Defense James Mattis\u00a0saying the policy proposal<\/a> initiated under the previous Obama Administration would be reviewed with “one standard” in mind [emphasis added]:<\/p>\n

Mattis said he believes the department must measure “each policy decision against one standard” \u2014 whether it affects the ability of the military to defend the nation<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is unnerving to LGBT activists who have made a concerted effort to claim allowing people who identify as “transgender” to serve would ultimately have no<\/em> effect on the military.\u00a0 Thus, if anyone is able to demonstrate a negative<\/em> affect on the ability of the military to defend the nation — say, the monetary cost, distraction to the primary mission, disruption to unit morale, loss of moral integrity, logistical questions and complaints, just to name a few — the LGBT’s progressive social agenda emplaced under President Obama could come to a screeching halt.<\/p>\n

(Notably, there is an important precedent for this concern: The\u00a0repeal of DADT has officially<\/em> done nothing<\/a> for the military — meaning it has not<\/em> improved<\/a> the ability of the military to defend the nation.\u00a0 Yet\u00a0the divisive and controversial policy\u00a0has — and continues to — cause disruption<\/a> to good order, morale, and discipline in the US military.)<\/p>\n

And that’s just what’s happening.\u00a0 The Family Research Council’s Tony Perkins recently revealed<\/a> the costs associated with allowing “transgenders” to enter the military would exceed $3.7 billion<\/strong> over 10 years, and members of Congress are seeing through the farce:<\/p>\n

“This [policy] doesn’t make [troops] more effective or efficient or deadly,” [US Rep Duncan Hunter (R-CA)] argued. “What it does is distract everybody.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

According to Rep Hunter, transgender service does not<\/em> create a positive.\u00a0 It does<\/em> create a negative.<\/p>\n

The policy would fail.<\/p>\n

Thus, LGBT activists have to go a step further.\u00a0 They can’t merely claim “no impact” if transgenders serve — they have to prove the US military can’t live without<\/em> people who identify as transgender.<\/p>\n

That’s where Ashley Broadway-Mack of the American Military Partner Association comes in, making\u00a0the ludicrous claim<\/a> [emphasis added]:<\/p>\n

It has been unequivocally proven<\/strong> that allowing qualified transgender people to serve<\/strong> openly strengthens our military<\/strong> and creates a more inclusive and diverse force.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

That’s utterly ridiculous.<\/p>\n

\"\"If Broadway’s claim was true, the US military should be scrounging every corner of America right now trying to recruit men who think they are women and vice versa — because by doing so they’re guaranteed (unequivocally!) to make the US military stronger.<\/p>\n

But is it true? Or could she just as easily have said “white male Protestants”\u00a0or “left-handed Irishmen” also “strengthen our military”?<\/p>\n

Nothing about the military is strengthened because someone\u00a0is<\/em> one gender while believing<\/em> himself to be another. By the same token, nothing in the military is strengthened merely<\/em> because a person is white, or Irish, or likes the Patriots.<\/p>\n

Broadway’s claim about sexual behavior\u00a0is “unequivocal” malarkey.<\/p>\n

On the contrary, it has been “unequivocally proven” that foisting “progressive” attitudes about sexuality on US troops — particularly at their expense — is divisive and distracts from the military mission. Doubt it? Check the comments on just about any official military Facebook page when they post something about a local “gay pride” event. Even people who favor<\/em> homosexuality are begging homosexuals — and the military — to stop talking about it.<\/p>\n

After all, who really thinks its a good idea to publicize\u00a0how Airmen, Soldiers, Sailors and Marines\u00a0like to have sex? Why is it acceptable for homosexuals to continually publicize their preferred sexual practices — and on a “family friendly<\/a>” military site, no less?<\/p>\n

Even so, the truth hasn’t stopped Broadway and her activist allies from claiming sexuality trumps military necessity — and human rights, like religious freedom. For them, the purpose of the US military isn’t to support and defend the Constitution or protect our Nation.<\/p>\n

For LGBT activists, the US military is a tool to advance and normalize their lifestyle choice — even when it is contrary to nature, morality, common sense, and the character of God.<\/p>\n

There is no “strength” in sin. We are all sinners, and we all lack the strength to help ourselves.<\/p>\n

But in our weakness, He is strong.<\/p>\n

He said to me, \u201cMy grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.\u201d Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
