Redefining Reality. This is a threatening issue for western society. Contemporary secular Zeitgeist presents us very dangerous and society threatening "truths" if you think them through to the end. Here are some excerpts of a recent article.
Quoted Article:
"If you want to change a society, you merely need to get the public to shift an idea from the category of “unthinkable” to “policy.” You’ll know you’ve been successful when the formerly unthinkable has become public school policy.
For instance, 50 years ago it would have been unthinkable for an elementary school teacher to contradict the claim that sexual intercourse was reserved for one man and one woman within the bonds of marriage. Today, in many if not most public schools, it’s now school policy that teaching that notion to children—and claiming any violation of that standard is immoral—is cause for termination.
The sexual revolution has so subverted public opinion and Christian-influenced morality that teachings about sex that were previously considered immoral or even unthinkable eventually found their way into the classroom as school policy. But a quicker and more effective route to societal change is to simply reverse the process: force an issue to become school policy and eventually opposition to it will become unthinkable.
(...)
Those who accept the idea that we can ignore biological sex for the mental construct of “gender identity” are endorsing metaphysical subjectivism, the view that “our own mental activity is the only unquestionable fact of our experience.” They are not only disagreeing with those of us who believe reality is created by God, but are attempting to make metaphysical subjectivism the standard that trumps all others in determing norms and ethics.
(...)
An inevitable result of metaphysical subjectivism is the domination of the strong by the weak and vulnerable.
(...)
This is why the issue is ultimately more important than a debate about public facilities. Transgender advocacy is not just opening the door to the women’s locker room for men confused about their identity; it’s opening the Pandora’s box of metaphysical subjectivism and unleashing on the world a horde of unintended consequences that we cannot even imagine."

Let´s not be naive!
Let´s not be naively idealistic!
Let´s not be naive idealistic fools - in the end!
Let´s turn (back) to OBJECTIVE discussion!
Let´s turn (back) to OBJECTIVE evaluation of truth and reality!
Let´s turn away from western moral indifference!
Let´s turn to our creator, GOD.
Who reveals himself generally - through creation - don´t you see it!? Don´t you see that we have no excuse if we deny that GOD is the unique creator and live not according to his rules!?
And furthermore, GOD reveals himself far more specifically through his son Jesus Christ. The historic person. His person, his character, his work, his words can be objectively researched in the bible. It can also be observed in the real life of confessing christian believers.
If we - if you - turn your mind and heart towards him in honest reverence and  confess him your selfishness and sinful deeds, if you accept him as your savior, as your new life authority, you can experience what the writer of the song „Amazing Grace“ has experienced when he wrote: „I once was blind, but now i see.“
„In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways,but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe.The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.“
(Hebrews 1:1–3 NIV11-GK)
