What about the 'political correctness'
thing that Facebook is doing? Did you know that Facebook is giving its
users (about 159 million per month) the opportunity to better describe
themselves? They are giving users about 50 choices to describe their
gender!! 50 choices to tell your gender!
What does that mean? Well, gender = male or female.
They are giving 48 more things for people to use such as: androgynous, transsexual, gender fluid, bi-gender ... and so on.
What
makes this so distressing? The Bible tells us that God created us as
male and female in His image. This takes away from that and lets
society believe that God isn't the one who created them, that we, the
society did.
Pope
Emeritus Benedict XVI predicted this turn in 2012 when he was still
the Pope. In his Christmas message to Vatican prelates he said, "When
the freedom to be creative becomes the freedom to create oneself, then
necessarily the Maker himself is denied and ultimately man too is
stripped of his dignity as a creature of God, as the image of God at the
core of his being. ... When God is denied, human dignity also
disappears. Whoever defends God is defending man."

Does this Facebook change bother you too? What do you think?
I think a lot of things are changing that offends God! (And me too!)
