Cognitive Dissonance Is Engulfing our Beloved Church

We are becoming the Church of cognitive dissonance. Let's begin by defining that psychological term:

Cognitive dissonance is the mental discomfort that occurs when a person holds two or more contradictory beliefs, values, or attitudes, or when their behavior conflicts with their beliefs. This discomfort motivates people to change their beliefs, justify their actions, or avoid new information to reduce the inconsistency.

Think about that. What happens when the actions of our pope and bishops show diametrically opposed philosophies. How do you reconcile two mutually exclusive propositions? You can't! Jesus called Himself "The way, the truth and the life."  Embracing truth means one has to choose. Which of two things is true, or are both untrue and is the truth elsewhere altogether.

Battle of the Bathrooms for Transgender Use

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo
announcing that there is no danger

The danger is self evident!

"If I’m a wolf but I identify as a chicken, I want to live in the hen house. If I’m a stallion but I self-identify as a filly, I want to pasture with mares. If I’m a biological man but I live as a transgender woman I want to use women’s bathrooms."

The transgender agenda is rising faster than the speed of light – certainly faster than it took the homosexual agenda to become mainline.

Governors and states, left and right, Democrats and Republicans, homosexuals and heterosexuals are all jumping into the fray, the latest being the Battle of the Bathrooms.
