LOS ANGELES, Calif. — A California man who obtained a sex change operation in the 1980’s to live as a woman and later reverted back to his biological gender is …

Here is a story I am sure you will not find in the LGBTQ literature.
Transgendered individuals need to be transformed not transitioned. They need the help of the great healer Jesus Christ and not a plastic surgeon. Walt Heyer lived 8 years as a woman even though he was born a man.
Heyer told the Daily Mail recently that he believes his problems stem from his childhood, when he was sexually abused by one relative and cross-dressed by another.
“[M]y grandmother, when I was being babysat by her, started dressing me in female clothing. She even made me a purple chiffon evening dress,” he recalled. “And when dad found out what grandma had been doing, and dressing me up like a girl, it did change everything.”
“[My father’s] adopted brother Fred began to sexually molest me,” Heyer said.
Although Heyer went on to marry and have children, at the age of 37, he decided to obtain a sex change operation to become a woman.
He said that he divorced his wife just before the operation because he did not want to put her through the ordeal. However, his children were not happy with how the situation was destroying their family.
“When a father does that, you’re betraying your children, and what came to my mind later on was I saw myself as much more important than my kids,” Heyer explained. “That is probably the most self-centered, narcissistic thing a person can do. It’s just nonsense to place yourself over a couple of kids, who needed someone to be there for them.”
Many never arrive at the place Walt eventually did, they do not see themselves as selfish and self-centered, even when they place their needs above all others. They feel that it is all about them and what they want, their happiness is all that matters to them. What many fail to realize, whether gay or straight, is that true happiness and true love comes from denying yourself and doing for others.
Although Walt attempted to change his sexual identity he came to the realization that one can not change biology.
"One day while studying psychology at the University of California, Heyer had an epiphany: He wasn’t a transgender. He was a man with a psychological problem that trying to live as a woman wasn’t going to fix. Heyer also learned that his answer wasn’t within himself; it was in Christ.
So, eight years after obtaining the operation, Heyer reverted back to living as a man, and now says he doesn’t believe that people are born transgender.
“Gender dysphoria is a psychological condition where you are dissatisfied with your gender,” he told the Daily Mail. “Nobody’s ever born a transgender. They’re manufactured as a result of something, a developmental childhood issue that has yet to be determined for many people. In retrospect, I can see that changing genders, quite frankly is just pure foolishness.”
Heyer says that those who struggle with the condition are not receiving proper care, and many medical professionals are too quick to agree to surgery.
“All of them have some level of depression, and we’re not treating them,” he lamented. “We’re just cutting off body parts and giving them a new name and a new gender.”
“[But] biologically, no one can transport to the other gender, it’s not even possible,” Heyer stated. “All they do is pump people full of hormones, put in breast implants and declare that they’ve manufactured a female. It’s biologically impossible to make a man into a woman.”
Matthew 19:4 (HCSB)
4 “Haven’t you read,” He replied, “that He who created them in the beginning made them male and female,”

As the death camps in Europe were being liberated 70 years ago, every civilized person was asking, “How could this have happened?” and vowing, “Never again.”
The “how” is on display in our world today. The only way the “never again” vow can be fulfilled is for all individuals who aspire to be civilized stand up and fight for the values of reason and individual liberty, and against any dogmas and dogmatists who would oppose them.

Those who refuse to learn from history or doomed to repeat it.
The ideas that led to the Holocaust are infecting our world today, principally through Islam. Islamist dogma holds that theirs is the only true religion, that they should wield absolute power and should enslave or even exterminate the infidel. The failure to oppose evil ideas and to defend civilized values allows the evil ones to crush the good. In the 1930s European leaders and thinkers, rightly seeking to avoid another world war, ignored the fact that Hitler’s ideology and actions showed that he was serious in his goal of creating a Greater German Reich dominated by his Master Race. The result of their failure to oppose his ideas and policies led to another world war. Are we on the verge of a third world war?

Obama’s Massive Land Grab Has Alaska Furious: ‘We Will Fight Back’
Source: freedomforce.com
"President Obama announced Sunday that his administration plans to lock up the oil-rich 1.5 million acre Arctic National Wildlife Refuge coastal plain and offshore areas in Alaska from oil and gas exploration.
Obama is asking Congress to designate 12 million acres of ANWR as a “wilderness” to keep it off-limits to development, despite widespread Native Alaskan support for drilling in the area. ANWR’s coastal plain alone is estimated to hold 28 billion barrels of oil."
Environmentalists have long campaigned to hinder oil production in Alaska.
"But Alaska lawmakers were furious with the administration’s proposal — for decades Alaska Republicans and Democrats have been pushing for opening ANWR to drilling.
“What’s coming is a stunning attack on our sovereignty and our ability to develop a strong economy that allows us, our children and our grandchildren to thrive,” said Alaska Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski. “It’s clear this administration does not care about us, and sees us as nothing but a territory.”
The Obama administration has already proposed designating 226 million acres of waters off Alaska’s coast as a critical habitat for the Arctic ringed seal. Alaska’s outer continental shelf is believed to be home to the world’s largest untapped oil and gas reserves. According to Alaska’s Resource Development Council, the outer shelf could hold 27 billion barrels of oil and 132 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.
“The promises made to us at statehood, and since then, mean absolutely nothing to them,” Murkowski said. “I cannot understand why this administration is willing to negotiate with Iran, but not Alaska. But we will not be run over like this. We will fight back with every resource at our disposal.” I am pretty sure that if Russia needs an influx of natural oil and gas Putin will have no problem drilling for it off the coastline of Alaska.
Alaska’s energy production has been hampered in recent years due largely to federal restrictions and adverse economics. In recent months, the state has seen its financial situation grow worse because of plummeting oil prices. At one point, the Trans-Alaska Pipeline used to transport some 2.1 million barrels per day. It now carries well under 1 million barrels per day. The pipeline has so far only carried oil from state lands, as federal lands have been off-limits. The pipeline will have to be shut down and dismantled if it drops below 300,000 barrels per day. Opening federal lands would allow more oil and natural gas exploration and bring prosperity to our country along with a steady of supply of domestic oil and natural gas. Shutting down the Trans-Alaska pipeline would be a huge mistake and would cost millions to reopen under a more economically friendly administration.
"Environmentalists have been keen on slowing down the flow of oil through the pipeline to make it uneconomical and impractical to get oil from Alaska. Eco-activists have labelled Alaska a ground-zero for global warming, saying shrinking sea ice levels are harming polar bears, wildlife and Native Alaskans – despite evidence to the contrary."
I thought that states were supposed to be sovereign under the Constitution of the United States? I was under the impression that under our Constitutional form of government that each state could operate independently of the federal government and enact their own laws. This central planning has brought our economy to a standstill and it appears it is only going to get worse if there is not a FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE at the federal government level to address this encroachment of the federal government into private property, and meddling into State’s affairs.
You would think that our elected leaders would be fighting to protect the rights of individuals and states. But on the contrary the federal government seems to be doing everything it can to hinder the economy and stifle energy production through regulations and the federalization of state lands.
