HANGING ON TO THE SLIPERY SLOPE

Hanging on to the slippery slope Dear Friend, Imagine participating in a sport and being encouraged over the years as coaches see your potential. Before you know it, there’s talk of college scholarships spurring you on to train even harder. But then, one day, things take a turn. Suddenly transgender men are competing as women right alongside you and they’re winning. This is already happening in our nation. Thankfully female athletes are beginning to speak out. But let me be frank: the so-called “Equality Act,” if passed by the Senate, will create more and more situations just like this, and it will deprive millions of Americans of equality—leaving them with no recourse. Sexual orientation and gender identity would be elevated to protected classes. Among the results: Women would be stripped of their existing right to single-sex accommodations in public restrooms, domestic violence or rape crisis shelters, drug rehabilitation centers, jails, homeless shelters, locker rooms, or group showers. Educators would be forced to become part of the propaganda apparatus of the state or risk losing their jobs and research funding. Employers and workers would be forced to conform to new sexual norms or lose their businesses and employment. Any notion of a right to conscience—a right which the Founders saw as the threshold freedom upon which all other freedoms rest—would be abandoned. Ultimately religious liberty would be lost—and it is naive and dangerous to think otherwise. That is why we must defeat the “Equality Act,” and your participation is vital! We are providing a Demand Letter that you can sign urging your Senators to oppose this bill—asking them to protect the conscience rights and religious liberty of Christians and people of faith. Your voice, joined with thousands of others, will let your senators know that you cherish your First Amendment guarantee of freedom of religion. Please join us in this effort by requesting your Demand Letters to your senators today. Watch for them in the mail, sign them, and return them right away. There will always be those individuals who think the loss of religious liberty is an exaggeration—just like they never believed the definition of marriage would come under fire, or that elementary age children would be taught their gender is fluid and can be changed. My friend, the slippery slope is not a myth. It is part and parcel of our sinful human nature. But God, in His mercy, has chosen you and me for such a time as this.  Thank you for helping us sound the alarm in cause for freedom, and proclaim Jesus Christ to a lost and dying world. Sincerely, Frank Wright, PH.D. President and CEO D. James Kennedy Ministries
