Speaker Johnson is Right: ‘A Man Cannot Become a Woman’
By: Paul Batura
The “trans” bathroom wars have reached Capitol Hill, courtesy of Delaware’s newly elected “Sarah” McBride — the first “transgender” person in the House of Representatives.
On Monday, Representative Nancy Mace introduced a bill that would require members of Congress to use restrooms associated with their biological sex.
“Sarah McBride doesn’t get a say. I mean, this is a biological man. McBride does not belong in women’s spaces, women’s bathrooms, locker rooms, changing rooms, period, full stop.”
Nancy Mace is exactly right.
Elected Sarah McBride, the 34-year-old is currently serving as a member of Delaware’s General Assembly.
Born Tim McBride in 1990, the young man announced to his parents in college that he was “trans” — and has assumed this confused identity ever since.

Help The Campaign to Save Christmas from Woke Censorship
By: Zachary Mettler
Liberty Counsel has launched its 22nd annual Friend or Foe Christmas Campaign to educate Americans about the First Amendment, ensuring religious viewpoints are not censored from Christmas celebrations.
Every year, the organization monitors cases from around the country where misinformed officials and malcontent groups attempt to remove the celebration of Christmas in public and private sectors.
Liberty Counsel has addressed and overturned hundreds of attempts, including:
- Restoring Nativity scenes that had been banned from public property.
- Returning Christmas carols to seniors who were silenced in their nursing homes.
- Lifting bans on public school students wearing red and green colors and acknowledging Christ’s birth in their classrooms.
- Correcting school officials who rewrote religious words out of Christmas carols.
- Retracting unconstitutional bans on Christmas holiday symbols, decorations, and expressions for city employees within public buildings.
- Reversing Christmas trees and parades that were renamed “holiday” items.
Liberty Counsel has even published a 10-page legal memorandum explaining how our nation’s courts and the U.S. Constitution protects Americans’ rights to celebrate Christmas. The organization reminds all Americans they are free to acknowledge and celebrate the religious meaning inherent to Christmas.

March for Life Announces New President and 2025 Theme
By: Nicole Hunt
The 52nd annual March for Life will be held in Washington D.C. on January 24, 2025. The theme for this year’s march is “Life: Why We March.”
Since the reversal of Roe two years ago and the subsequent challenges the pro-life movement has faced, organizers say this theme is about reminding us of what it’s all about.
Their hope is to “encourage pro-life advocates to draw renewed energy for this challenging moment in the movement by reflecting on the basic truth that inspires the pro-life cause: every human life — including the unborn and their mothers — is beautiful, has unique dignity, and [is] worthy of protection.”
Current President Jeanne Mancini narrates the piece and concludes, “Because every single life deserves a chance. That is what real human flourishing looks like. That is why we march.”
March organizers say, “The goal of the national March for Life is to not only change laws at the state and federal level, but to change the culture to ultimately make abortion unthinkable.”
Earlier this fall, the March for Life announced a leadership change and welcomed their new president-elect, Jennie Bradley Lichter.
Lichter is an attorney and formerly worked at the White House on domestic policy and rulemaking to defend the dignity of human life. Lichter will assume her role as president on February 1, 2025.
March organizers have also revealed that the keynote speaker for the 2025 march will be Bethany Hamilton.

The 4B Movement: Anti-Women, Accidentally Pro-Life
By: Emily Washburn
No dating. No marriage. No sex. No kids.
These are the four tenets of the 4B movement, a South Korean feminist initiative gaining traction among American women.
Originating almost a decade ago, 4B translates to no marriage (bi-hon), no childbirth (bi-chulsan), no dating (bi-yeonae) and no sex with men (bi-seksue).
American women resurrected the movement after the election, accusing men of waging a war on women.
Or, more accurately, refusing to elect a pro-abortion candidate for president.
The American 4B movement collectively believes pro-life policies and candidates encroach upon women’s “right” to unlimited abortion access.
Adherents blame these violations on men, whom it claims are inherent oppressors of women.
Some converts see 4B as a way to punish their male overlords. Others hope decreasing birth rates will convince men to “protect women” — i.e., to support abortion access — in future elections.
Happily, by reducing extramarital sex, 4B followers are reducing abortions — and supporting the pro-life cause.
The vast majority of abortions (95%) aren’t medically necessary. They occur because the baby is “unwanted or mistimed,” meaning the mother feels she cannot, or is unwilling to, care for her child.

C.S. Lewis and Answers to the Problem of Pain
By: Zachary Mettler
The problem of evil is one of the most difficult challenges for Christian theists to answer. In fact, it is the problem that Christians must face.
Christian philosopher Dr. William Lane Craig has said that “the problem of suffering is, I think, the most powerful objection to the existence of God. … The suffering in the world certainly seems to be evidence against God’s existence.”
Part of the reason for this is that the problem of pain, suffering and evil is one we all must face at some point. No one gets off this green earth without facing their fair bit of pain.
Then too, we must acknowledge that we all contribute our own evil to this world — causing pain to others.
Here at the Daily Citizen, the problem of evil is embedded into many of the articles we write concerning abortion, euthanasia, transgenderism, suicide, educational indoctrination, drug use, pornography, divorce and more.
C.S. Lewis was one of the foremost Christian apologists of the 20th century. Not coincidentally, he had much to say about the problem of evil. He wrote two books specifically about the subject, The Problem of Pain and A Grief Observed.
In The Problem of Pain, he summarized the problem this way:
“If God were good, He would wish to make His creatures perfectly happy, and if God were almighty, He would be able to do what He wished. But the creatures are not happy. Therefore, God lacks either goodness, or power, or both.” This is the problem of pain, in its simplest form.
