A Federal Court Upheld a State Ban on Gender ‘Medicine’ for Minors
- Like roughly 20 other states in the nation, Tennessee’s legislature recently passed a law prohibiting state healthcare providers from performing “gender-affirming” surgeries and administering hormones or puberty blockers to anyone under the age of 18.
- But, like many of those other states, Tennessee was preliminary enjoined from enforcing its law by a district court that found it likely violated the Constitution. A few days later, however, the Sixth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals struck down the lower court’s injunction, allowing the Volunteer State to continue to enforce its gender “medicine” ban for minors.
- To the relief of gender ideology critics and sound thinking people everywhere, the court made the case that the sprint to transition minors across America has to stop.

Divorce Parties Are a New Hot Invite. ‘It Sort of Ended Up as a Really Fun Funeral.’
- Divorce parties reflect society’s embrace of self-love. They mock the reality of divorce and its dissolution of important commitments that come from marriage.
- Studies show that women initiate 70-90% of divorces but struggle more than men to remarry.
- Children who suffer from their parents' divorce receive lifelong baggage that impacts their own relationships, their academic success, their religious growth, their emotional well-being, and their sense of self.
- While divorce is sometimes necessary, it should be mourned as the tragedy it is.
