a mock certificate called the badge of honor

Once Again, the Word of God is Under Fire

Note: It is not my intention to rant against medium.com. My purpose is to tell the story, as fairly as I can. In fact I’m going to include the entire email they sent me. I’m going to provide the two links to the articles they flagged as “hateful content”, and I’ll let you decide. But for me, this is a badge of honor. While I’m not being persecuted for the Word of God, I’m very much being discriminated against for my religious views. And that is something I will carry with me, that I was discriminated against for my belief in the Creator of the Universe and his inerrant word, the Bible.

Let’s start with the email:

Your account is now suspended.

First they claimed they had already sent me an email telling me my account had been suspended, but I did not receive any such email. Yesterday I visited the site in order to post my latest story, Trump Blasts Netanyahu In Private Phone Call

I’m nothing if consistent you see, right or left, Republican or Democrat, I call it like I see it. But let me make one thing perfectly clear: Nothing I write is ever hateful. What they call hateful is what I call unwavering truth. The two article referenced are still available right here, today. Transition to Terror: The Trans Movement and Rising Violence

This story is about a man, Robert Dorgan. Now Dorgan was a trans individual. Here is the first thing I wrote in my article:

Now, this may rub Christians the wrong way, but it’s important to set out the truth. And the truth is that people have a right, a God given right, to behave in any way they want. This does not exclude them from judgement, but this is a right for every person. People are allowed to choose whether they want to follow God or not.

There are some people who have decided to take this life and live it in any way they choose. God does not force people to follow him. He may not agree with their choices, but he will not intervene their decision to choose. And, it is important to add, this does not exclude them from judgement due to their behavior.

Now, is this hateful speech? No, this is the truth. Anyone at all on this earth has a right to live their lives any way they want to. They may, like myself and millions of others, dedicate our lives to God’s Messiah, Jesus and spread his Gospel, the Good News that Christ took our place and punishment for our sins in order to reconcile us to God. Others like Mr. Dorgan may decide to reject God and his gift of salvation. But in no way is this hateful unless of course, you have made yourself an enemy of God, and then all of this is hateful.

In my article I went through the steps the Bible lays out in Romans 1:18-32 to lay out, exactly what would cause a person like Dorgan to kill his family. That’s right: I am accused of writing a hateful content article about a man who killed his family. This is the portion of the article that I explained what and why Dorgan did what he did. This is a direct quote from my article:

The latest incidents of violence committed by these ‘trans’ individuals is the mass shooting at the ice hockey rink in Rhode Island. In this heinous act, Robert Dorgan went by the female persona Roberto Esposito. Shockingly, just days before this incident, Dorgan posted a revealing reply to actor Kevin Sorbo. Sorbo had pointed out (correctly) that a member of Congress who is a trans individual was in fact a man. Dorgan apparently thought that stating the truth was some form of harassment. In a Tweet on X (formerly Twitter), he said the following:

keep bashing us. but do not wonder why we Go BERSERK – Roberta Dorgano

I would like to point out the obvious: Stating the truth is hardly ‘bashing’ someone. It is not my intention to speak ill of the dead. But, where does it say that because a person dies, we have to invent nice things to say about them? If any person, wants to pose as a member of the opposite sex they have the freedom from God to do so. And as long as they are not hurting anyone else, I have no reason nor the authority to stop them.

This is the truth that the left calls ‘hate speech’. This is the fallacy of their beliefs. As we have seen many, many times, there is a trend among trans individuals who have a propensity toward violence.

I then went on to explain why people like Dorgan do the things they do, according to the Bible. In Romans 1:18-32, the Bible clearly spells out the progression a person, any person experiences through their rejection of God. Do all of them end up committing acts of violence? No, the Bible gives us a wide variety of evils that eventually overtake people who reject the knowledge of God.

And because they did not think it worthwhile to acknowledge God, God delivered them over to a corrupt mind so that they do what is not right. 29 They are filled with all unrighteousness, evil, greed, and wickedness. They are full of envy, murder, quarrels, deceit, and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, arrogant, proud, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, 31 senseless, untrustworthy, unloving, and unmerciful. 32 Although they know God’s just sentence ​— ​that those who practice such things deserve to die ​— ​they not only do them, but even applaud others who practice them. – Romans 1:28-32 CSB

Story Number Two

The other article was something I bet wasn’t even read. But one day I was watching the Erin Molan show on YouTube. She was talking about transgenderism, and she called it a cult. That got me to thinking, and I decided to conduct a study of my own:

Is Transgenderism A Cult?

This is another article that exists to this day on my website. In that article I take a very scientific approach to the question: Is transgenderism a cult. And you know what the hateful content was? Neither do I, because I came to the conclusion that transgenderism DID NOT meet the qualifications needed to classify it as a cult. That’s why I say medium.com didn’t even read my article. In that article, I did make the case that should transgenders develop a leadership base that could successfully articulate their beliefs and motives, then one day it might be a cult, but not now.

In Conclusion

Now you have the evidence in it’s entirety. You can see the accusations made my medium, and you can read the articles for themselves. I really am disappointed in mediums actions. It is such a liberal website, very left leaning. I considered myself the ‘token conservative’ among the bunch, a voice in the wilderness if you will. But intolerance knows no bounds. Welcome to the end times, where just as Jesus predicted:

“If the world hates you, understand that it hated me before it hated you. 19 If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own. However, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of it, the world hates you. 20 Remember the word I spoke to you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. – John 15:18-20 CSB

In fairness I am going to give medium.com the opportunity to respond to this article. If they decide to respond: I will edit this post and add their response here.
