CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY APRIL 13, 2023
WHY DOES IT ALWAYS SEEM THAT CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIANS HAVE TO DEFEND WHAT ONCE WAS MOSTLY BELIEVED TO BE TRUE?
THE LATEST, BUT NOT THE LAST, IS THE TRANSGENDER MOVEMENT. COLIN WRIGHT IS AN EVOLUTIONARY BIOLIGIST AND A FELLOW AT THE MANHATTAN INSTITUTE. IN A RECENT WALL STREET JOURNAL COLUMN, HE WROTE THE FOLLOWING:
“WHEN BIOLOGISTS CLAIM THAT SEX IS BINARY, WE MEAN SOMETHING STRAIGHTFORWARD: THERE ARE ONLY TWO SEXES. THIS IS TRUE THROUGHOUT THE PLANT AND ANIMAL KINGDOMS. AN ORGANISM’S SEX IS DEFINED BY THE TYPE OF GAMETE (SPERM OR OVA) IT HAS THE FUNCTION OF PRODUCING. MALES HAVE THE FUNCTION OF PRODUCING SPERM…FEMALES OVA…BECAUSE THERE IS NO THIRD GAMETE TYPE, THERE ARE ONLY TWO SEXES. SEX IS BINARY.”
IT’S AMAZING PLANTS AND ANIMALS GET IT, BUT SOME HUMANS DON’T. ACTUALLY, THEY DON’T WANT TO GET IT. PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE OTHERWISE NEED HELP, NOT INDULGENCE.
ANYONE WHO READS GENESIS KNOWS THAT GOD MADE US MALE AND FEMALE. NEITHER GENESIS, NOR MR. WRIGHT, WILL CURTAIL THE AGENDA OF THE SECULAR-PROGRESSIVES WHO SEEK TO DESTROY EVERY NORM AND EVEN THE COUNTRY. YOU HAVE TO DENY THE OBVIOUS TO BELIEVE OTHERWISE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
Rarely do I quote an evolutionary biologist in a positive way. In my teaching, I quote Richard Dawkins for ridiculous statements made as “facts of science” that at best are untested theories and at worst “science fiction”. I will gladly be quoting Colin Wright and urging others to do the same. One
of my favorite authors is Gerald Schroeder. Thank you for this information.
