“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.” —Genesis 1:27
Whether or not you subscribe to the biblical account of creation, that sentence says something that humanity has understood for all of its history until a few short years ago — that there are two sexes, male and female.
Yesterday was Easter, Resurrection Day, the holiest day on the Christian calendar. It’s the day on which we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. God saw all of humanity, the bearers of His own image, condemned by sin and destined for hell. He gave His Son Jesus as the final sacrifice for that sin and redeemed for Himself people who believe through Christ’s death and resurrection. Every single human throughout history was visible to Him that day and every day.
Christ died to pay for sin, not to celebrate it. To borrow a favorite word of the Left, He came to heal the marginalized, not to leave them unchanged. That makes yesterday also tragic, as people who ungratefully reject God’s created order celebrated “Transgender Visibility Day.” As if this tiny fraction of the population isn’t already the most “visible” — in your face — segment in the country.
Joe Biden, supposedly a good Catholic, welcomed the day by trying to score political points. “Today, on Transgender Day of Visibility, I have a simple message to all trans Americans: I see you,” said whoever posts on X for him. “You are made in the image of God, and you’re worthy of respect and dignity.”
His official proclamation went on at length about the travails of this small group of people before concluding with the typical proclamation language that was especially jarring this time: “in the year of our Lord.”

The Unholy Lie of 'Transgender Day of Visibility'
Many greeted Biden's proclamation with outrage, and that was just, but we grieved over the destructive lies told to struggling people.
