Man murders 12-year-old, later claims to be trans

He claimed to be a woman after he admitted to killing the girl who he likely also sexually abused

An 18-year-old sentenced for killing 12-year-old girl when he was 16 now claims to identify as a woman now that he is standing trial for the gristly crime.

The details of the case are too horrific to recount in great detail here. In short, Pennsylvania man Josh Cooper now identifies as “Ash” has been sentenced for 18- to 40 years in prison for the murder of Morgan Connors at a trailer park in Bensalem Township, Pennsylvania in 2022.

Cooper, convicted for third degree murder of the girl, allegedly shared images of the victim’s bloody and deceased body to a friend on Instagram and police say he had claimed to have had a sexual relationship with Connors.

The girl died of a gunshot wound to her neck. Police found Cooper fleeing the scene when they arrived and found Morgan’s body. The teen later claimed Connors’ death had been an accident and pled guilty. However, investigators did find he’d previously been convicted of sexual assault in juvenile court.

And so, as The Blaze recently reported, it is this clearly very disturbed young man who began to “transition” to life as a transgender “woman” after being arrested for murdering a child he likely sexually abused when he was barely older than a child himself.

Friends, it is no coincidence that this young man is turning towards more perversion of God’s design after so cruelly treating one His fellow image bearers, as he has been accused.

He is likely a deeply wounded person, as some of the most wicked people often are. The world’s values today surrounding sexuality and the value of women are deeply hurtful to human beings, and have deceived the minds of many, causing them to horrifically abuse themselves — and others.

Ideas are just this dangerous. They have very real consequences, such as abuse, murder, tyranny, eugenics, genocide, and infanticide.

Let us pray constantly for the hearts and souls of our young people that the victorious truth of the Lord would reign supreme over the lies that have gripped their hearts and led them astray!

Idaho’s Republican Governor has signed a bill which requires parental consent in medical services provided to children.

SB 1329, crafted to protect the “parental rights in medical decision-making” at a time when many states grapple with child medical “transitions” and parental consent, passed the heavily Republican-majority state Senate and House along party lines earlier this year.

The newly-signed law establishes that “parents have the fundamental right and duty to make decisions concerning the furnishing of health care services to the minor child” and stipulates that “an individual shall not furnish a health care service or solicit to furnish a health care service to a minor child without obtaining the prior consent of the minor child’s parent.”

Lawmakers also included a prohibition on healthcare providers and government entities from restricting “a minor child’s parent access to health information.” 

For years here at Elizabeth Johnston Ministries, we have covered instances where schools, school districts, and even state law has established boundaries between parents and children when it comes to a child’s purported claims of transgender identity.

As The Christian Post notes, this bill comes at a time when the parental rights issue has taken center stage in the American political arena, and for good reason. We have campaigned to get these issues in the spotlight for some time, and they will no doubt be among the chief concerns many parents have going into the 2024 election.

Yet must not only ensure parental rights are protected when it comes to any and all medical intervention, but that this shockingly dangerous form of “healthcare” that mutilates and destroys a perfectly healthy adolescent body is soon considered to be completely illegal — and entirely unthinkable.

The transgender “woman” destroyed his female competition before going on to best out male competitors, too   

A transgender darts player has won a women’s title and a mixed-gender title in the world of competitive darts, and the commentary writes itself.

As the UK’s The Express reported, Noa-Lynn van Leuven took the PDC Women’s Series in England for the Challenge Tour recently before going on to beat out men at a mixed-gender competition in Hildesheim, Germany a week later.

He collected $3,000 in prize money and moved forward to seventh in the Challenge Tour Order of Merit.

What’s more, van Leuven went on to beat out two of the best female darts players in the world in yet another competition not long afterwards.

The Express noted that while van Leuven has his supporters in the world of darts, not everyone is a fan of the idea of him competing against women.

“I have thought this is wrong since day one. I have no problems with transgenders in life,” Deta Hedman, a top name in women’s darts, also told The Telegraph. "I’m not close to Noa-Lynn in darts but in fairness seems a lovely person. For many months I’ve struggled with transgenders playing in the women’s world-ranked events.”

Virtually the entire premise of having women’s sports is so women, who have different bodies from men, can compete against one another fairly.

There are many women right now, ranging from radical feminists to conservative Christian homeschool moms, whose voices are being silenced and demonized for simply affirming that regardless of our beliefs or lifestyle, all women have the right to private, sex-exclusive spaces.

Do not let them silence you.
