A primer for decoding and surviving the language of inclusivity

Those who control language control thought;
those who control thought control behavior
Yes, we need to teach our children the ABC's and the three R's. But now Ontario schools have been mandated to include the language of phony sexual "rights" and an inclusive ideology. We all want to make sure our children are able to read, write, think and compute. However, today it's so important for parents to teach their children another skill that they will most likely not be taught in school: to acquire a vocabulary that enables them to seek out and know the truth. Parents need to make sure children learn how to spot the false connotations and denotations many words have today come to signify around human sexuality and other life issues. Political correctness and inclusive policies have distorted our language. Young people must be prepared to unmask and deal with the sexual confusion. Parents naturally have this responsibility.

In a world where everything is morally relative, our children need to learn how to detect and reject the misuse of the language of "inclusion," of "equity education" and of doublespeak. Young students must be armed with a vocabulary to help them recognize the lies and deceptions they are sure to encounter. This is especially so when they hear and read the "new" language about  human sexuality, marriage, abortion, family, euthanasia and other life and death issues. Parents can accomplish this important task by providing children, especially at the higher elementary grades and in high school, a beginner's dictionary for decoding the deceptive words and phrases of inclusive language. Not to do so is to allow the voices of a manipulating minority to dictate and control the majority. This is neither democratically nor morally right. Nevertehless, Ontario's new Premier Kathleen Wynne has already said that she will bring back the controversial hyper-sexualized curriculum for grades 1-8 that was withdrawn in 2010 by the former Liberal leader Dalton McGuinty.

In an effort to uncover some of the misinformation about inclusive language, here is a primer of words, phrases and definitions that have gradually become part of our lexicon. It's these words and expressions that help to define our culture but more importantly our thinking and behavior. So, the accurate and just use of language is necessary in order to counter deception and live the truth. Why not begin a discussion in your family about the issue of language, truth and human sexuality? Parents are the first educators of their children. Finally, this is not meant to be an exhaustive list, but a work in progress and we hope readers will add their own contributions.

A Primer for Decoding and Surving the World of Inclusive Language

Ally: Anyone who supports, accepts or promotes the LGTBQ, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, transexual, two-spirited, intersexed, queer and questioning, community. For some, it's become trendy and cool to be an "ally."

Adultism: This can often be passed off as the idea that adults have a set of erroneous assumptions, beliefs, practices and policies that are directed against the LGTBQ agenda. Groups and organizations like the International Planned Parenthood that wish to promote fake "sexual rights" and "reproductive rights," need to undermine real parents of their true rights. Therefore accusing them of "adultism" results in a strategy to undermine or undo parental influence.

Abortion: A lethal invasive procedure that intentionally terminates pregnancy. It's a horrific act to deliberately kill any unborn baby. In Canada, this barbaric practice began in 1969 with Bill C-150, also known as the omnibus bill, and continues to be perfectly legal and paid for with tax payers' money, to the present day. The argument that abortion is about choice is a lie; it's about death being the only choice. The unborn baby is given no choice.

Biphobia: A set of assumptions, beliefs, practices, and policies that are directed by the LGTBQ community at those who do not accept sexual or romantic attractions to either the male or female sex. This word can be used to attack those who question the definition of human sexuality beyond the boundaries of heterosexuality.

Bisexual: People who have sexual and romantic attractions to members of either sex. This word came into use in the 19th century. Some researchers dispute the nature and definition of bisexuality, but this information is seldom communicated to parents and students by those who believe in "equity and inclusive education" policies and their implementation in schools.

Bullying: A form of persistent and aggressive behaviour directed at an individual that is intended to cause harm, fear and distress to another person's body, feelings, self-esteem or reputation. Bullying has been used by the LGBTQ community and governments to implement "Equity and Inclusive Education" and "diversity" policies and laws in an attempt to have society recognize and normalize homosexuality in the same way society has backed heterosexuality.

Christophobia: A set of beliefs, assumptions, practices, fears and policies to disregard, attack and undermine any reference made to Christ, Christian beliefs and morals. This often includes fears of any references to the Bible and thus to Christian teaching.

Cissexual and Cisgendered: Words that may be used by the transexual/transgendered community to identity the heterosexual community (those who identify their sexuality as male or female) in order to single out that it's in contrast to theirs.

Diversity: This is the idea that society needs to accept a wide range of qualities and human attributes. It refers to one's culture, ethnicity, "gender identity," language, physical and intellectual ability, skin colour, religion, sex, "sexual orientation" and socio-economic status. However,  diversity as in "equity education" has been largely been used by the LGTBQ community and governments to try to make the entire society accept, promote, celebrate and normalize homosexuality.

Equity and Inclusive Education: A fair, inclusive and respectful treatment of all people. However, the idea has been exploited by those who want use "education" to get  the entire society to accept and normalize homosexuality, same-sex marriage and abortion. This is not about education or better government legislation, unless you believe in hyper-sexualizing children, indoctrination and propaganda. This is an agenda for political correctness.

Euthanasia: The legalized process where the state is permitted to intentionally kill another human being. It's also called "assisted-suicide," "mercy killing" and "dying with dignity" to make it sound much more appealing and harmless than what it really means. Death and murder by any other name are death and murder.

Family: A social unit consisting of a mother, a father and child/children. Some in the LGBTQ community and others want "new" structures such as two men, two women with child/children and other combinations to be equally recognized and accepted by society. If these new "family" arangements are acceptable then do we also recognize polygamy and all other variations  as a family?

Fetus: A word often substituted for the unborn baby so as to have us forget and numb us into thinking that we are not killing a child-to-be. Sadly, we are. It's a word from Latin meaning "offspring" or "hatching the young". Other words and expressions used to denote that an unborn baby is not a human life are: "cell clumps," "bundle of undifferentiated cells," "tissue,""embryo" and "zygote." However, everyone knows that a pregnant woman is carrying a baby.

Fundamental Human Rights: This expression is being advanced by activists at the United Nations that would like to see a world tax fund to be used to recognize other fake "rights" as they apply to abortion and human sexuality. This would include deceptive "sexual rights" and "reproductive rights." The Univeral Declaration of Human Rights makes no mention of these as rights.

Gay: A term which refers to all the LGTBQ people, but not accepted by some who say they are lesbian and/or bisexual. See also homosexuality.

Gender identity, Gender Expression and Gender Identity: A fluid reference to somebody's sexual identity that includes more than being male and female. It's not linked to biology and sex, but can denote a number of sexual "expressions" because it's based on feelings, beliefs and behaviors. These terms put in question the very anthropology of human sexuality. This philosophy of "gender" rejects the traditional notion that sex is given to the person at birth by nature and the person makes meaning out of it. Instead, human sexuality becomes one's "gender," a socially chosen role by either society or by each individual. This has given rise to numerous "sexual orientations."

Heterophobia: A disparaging or hostile attitude or negative bias by an individual or group towards the majority of people who have a romantic or sexual attractions or behaviour between persons of the opposite sex. Some in the LGTBQ community see heterosexuality as a societal prejudice that needs to be removed.

Homophobia: A range of negative attitudes and experiences that the LGBTQ community claims they experience from the majority of people who are heterosexual. Often this word is used to express antipathy, contempt, prejudice, hatred and aversion for those who do not accept homosexuality in the same way they do heterosexuality. A word that once meant a heterosexual fear of being gay, is now often used to stop debate and attack anyone who even questions "homosexual rights."

Homosexuality: Persons who have sexual or romantic or behaviour attractions for people of  the same sex. Some lesbians and bisexual people reject this term.

Heterosexism: An attitude held by many in the LGTBQ community that heterosexuals discriminate and are biased in favor of opposite-sex attractions. A presumption by those who have no sexual or romantic attractions for the opposite sex. It may also be used to accuse heterosexuals for believing that their relationships are normal.

Heterosexuality: Persons, male or female, who are naturally attracted sexually or romantically to the opposite sex. The LGTBQ community doesn't accept this as the norm and some of them view it as a prejudice and a bias that needs to be eradicated. This does not change the fact that the majority of the population are heterosexuals.

Human Life: Christians believe that human life is created by God and is a gift. As a result, it should not be manipulated and abused by science or used for commercial purposes. Human life being made in the image of God can never be intentionally destroyed by abortion, euthansia or any others means to end it or treat it as is were a mere commodity.

Human Sexuality: Christians believe that human beings are created by God as males and females. Human sexuality comes from this divine and biological reality. As a consequence, human beings cannot simply define their sexuality at will or by what is socially constructed.

Inclusive Education also called Equity Education: A set of assumptions and beliefs promoted mostly by the LGTBQ community and government legislation. Schools and society need to accept and normalize homosexuality in the same way as heterosexuality. It is often coded in the language of "diversity" which means that schools need to accept and include all students. Students need to see themselves in the curriculum, their physical surroundings, the larger environment so that in essence homosexuality, "sexual orientations," and "gender identity" can be recognized and approved.

International Planned Parenthood and Planned Parenthood: These are two of the biggest organizations providing and exporting abortion to the world. The words "planned" and "parenthood" in their names are totally misleading. These organizations are funded by the United Nations with money that comes from its member countries, Canada being one of them. Canadian funds pay for abortion at home and abroad.

Intersex: The claim not accepted be everyone, but generally held by the LGTBQ community that society should not  assign sex to infants when it's not clear whether they are male or female. These cases are very rare occurrences, but the argument can be used to promote the "need" to recognize the many "sexual orientations," "gender equity" and "gender expression."

Living Will: A legal document authorizing an agent to make all health decision about an individual. This includes whether to provide, withhold or remove all "artificial" nutrition and hydration and all other health care in order to keep a person alive. The language of these legal statements is often ambiguous and thus can be too easily used to promote the culture of death by withdrawing even food and water. The "living will" arises from a belief which views life in terms of cost-benefit analyses.

Lesbophobia: A set of assumptions, beliefs, practices, and policies that are held by the LGTBQ community against those who do not accept lesbians in the same way they accept heterosexual women.

LGBTQ: (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, transexual, two-spirited, intersexed, queer and questioning) An acronym used by the LGBTQ community to promote and seek societal recognition for a range of sexual identities and sexual diversity.

Marriage: The civil/sacramental/legal union of a man and a woman which many want to change in order to get societal approval for other post-modern arrangements (two women, two men, any combination of these) that can be called "marriages" too.

Minor-Attracted Person: A term to hide the fact that we are mostly talking about pedophiles. The words change nothing even when they mask the reality.

Misogyny: It's the hatred or contempt of women. It's a negative attitude toward women as a group. The word has also been used by those who support "reproductive rights," namely abortion, to attack anyone who disagrees with a "woman's right" to choose the death of her unborn child. Recently the premier and the minister of education of Ontario both said that Catholic schools cannot be pro-life because this would promote misogyny. The logic here is morally absurd.

Pan-sexuality and Omnisexuality: This is the idea that a person can be romantically and sexually attracted to either sex and to others with different "sexual orientations." This suggests that a number of sexual possibilities exist in a person. However, this changes nothing about the physical nature of a person's sexuality.

Pro-choice: A term that is not a choice at all because it means that the state allows and pays for a pregnant woman to kill her baby. "Pro-choice" should actually be called pro-death since it denies women real choices. It always tries to reject the real alternative which is the pro-life position to let the unborn baby live.

Quality of Life: This term has gradually replaced the Western ethic that all human life is of "equal value." In a society where resources and costs are put before people, then "quality of life" becomes the priority and some lives can then become expendable. This is part of what leads anti-life groups to advocate for assisted-suicide, abortion, euthanasia all in the false name of the "right to die", "compassion" and "choices."

Queer: An identity adopted by those who want to defy any sexual restrictions based on heterosexual attractions alone. This word is chosen by those who don't wish to be restricted to gender and sexual identities. Some in the LGBTQ community do not recognize the distinction.

Questioning: A person who is exploring or questioning their sexuality and thus refuses to identify with either the male or female sex. They may not want one sexual partner, but a more "fluid" approach to "sexual orientation."

Reproductive Health Services, Reproductive Rights, Protecting Women, Comprehensive Sexual Education, War on Women: These terms have little to do with maternal and sexual heath or the general well being of women; it's all about the United Nations' and much of the Western world's fixation to continue to push to have contraceptions, sterilizations, abortifacients and abortion recognized as "rights" all over the world. Mrs. Clinton, the United States Secretary of State and Melinda Gates are two voices championing these false rights.

Safe Abortion: There are no "safe" abortions if you're the baby. A "safe abortion" is a dead baby. The expression may sound good, but turns our in reality to be the killing of a child. We should never confuse "safe" words with dead babies. This is the illogic of political correctness.

Same-Sex Marriage: A legal arrangement that permits homosexual couples to say they are "married." Some of these couples want the rest of society to accept that these "unions" are the same as traditional marriages between a man and a woman. No law can change the fact that homosexual unions cannot have children of their own, thus they will want to "buy" and "order" babies like a hamburger. As the protest in France reminded us, the right of the child to be raised by its birth parents (father and mother) trump the right to have a child. In Canada, same-sex marriage was legally approved in 2005.

Sex-Selective Abortions: In some Canadian communities and parts of the world this is the intentional killing of unborn baby girls by couples who want to have a boys. This has lead to, among other consequences, millions boys in China and India without girls to marry. Is the killing of more unborn girls morally and legally wrong? Can society allow an evil like abortion to be legal, and then say it's wrong in some cases; the killing of any born/unborn child is an evil.

Sexual Orientations: The expression gives the false denotation that there are numerous sexes. It's a socially invented idea that often has no reference to any physical or biological reality. There are only two sexes: male and female. It's deceptive rhetoric that gives one a choice to numerous socially constructed sexual orientations.

Sexual Rights: A term to make one think about real rights such as the right to life, food, water, air, freedom and equality. But this is not the case here; it's a term constructed by the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF) to try to sexualize young people at an earlier age, then sell them contraceptives and if the contraceptives fail, then IPPF will be there to provide abortion-on-demand.

Transgender: These are individuals who feel they cannot accept or are uncomfortable with their biological sex; people who question the natural reality and norm of being either male or female.

Transphobia: A set of assumptions, beliefs, practices, and policies that are directed by the LGTB community at those who do not accept transsexuals and transgendered people as they do heterosexual men and women.

Two-Spirited: Aboriginal people who claim to possess the "male and female spirit." They may also feel that they are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender. It's also been seen as another "gender expression." This is not based on one's sex, but the social construction of one's sexuality.

  1. Shame on the new Ontario Liberal Premier after announcing in her first press conference that she would not be an activist that's precisely what she is doing after stating that the government will pursue the extremist as you say Lou hyper-sexualized curriculum for grades 1-8 that was withdrawn in 2010 by the McGuinty government. Shame, shame, shame! Ontario needs a change in government sooner rather than later.

    Political correctness and inclusivness has become a cancer in this province and country. We have become so inclusive in Ontario and Canada that we are excluding freedom of religious expression and parental rights. Persecution of Christians especially Catholic Christians in Canada and around the western world has now become the new reality. Remember that 75% of all religious persecution around the globe is against Christians.

    Brothers and Sisters in Christ if all seems lost do not despair for this modern day tower of babel that they are trying to build will all collapse in the not too distant future. We are not fighting against principalities of the flesh but of the spirit world as scripture tells us. Our true Lord God and Saviour Jesus Christ will come as a just judge and rule in his Heavenly Kingdom for ever and ever. Till then pray, pray, pray.
