In a post that went viral on social media, a liberal PCUSA pastor railed against President Trump and his recent executive order. Trump’s recent order, titled Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government, restricted gender ideology and banned transgender athletes from women’s sports.
In the deeply gendered reality of Scripture and Western history and civilization, gender norms are attached to biological sex, an idea reflected in one of the executive orders that Trump just signed,” she said. ” This is really the title, Defending Women from gender ideology extremism and Restoring Biological Truth the Federal Government.”
“In the order, which is reminiscent of the literature from that council on biblical manhood and womanhood that I mentioned earlier. Trump declares that there are only two genders, male and female,” the woke pastor added. “[It] Reminds me of Margaret Atwood’s book The Handmaid’s Tale, which began with the rogue government reinstating coverture laws by shutting down women’s bank accounts and credit cards and declaring women under the care of their male relatives.”
“It was just before they started forcing women in their community to bear children for the state. So as Trump doubles down on the biological and binary nature of human sexuality,” she complained. “Let’s not forget that the gender norms that white Christian nationalists are so fond of come from Scripture as First Timothy tells us that to be female means men should be silent, submissive and that women cannot teach or have authority.”
In Trump’s order, he said. “Across the country, ideologues who deny the biological reality of sex have increasingly used legal and other socially coercive means to permit men to self-identify as women and gain access to intimate single-sex spaces and activities designed for women,” the Whitehouse stated. “Efforts to eradicate the biological reality of sex fundamentally attack women by depriving them of their dignity, safety, and well-being.”
“The erasure of sex in language and policy has a corrosive impact not just on women but on the validity of the entire American system. Basing Federal policy on truth is critical to scientific inquiry, public safety, morale, and trust in government itself,” the order ads. “This unhealthy road is paved by an ongoing and purposeful attack against the ordinary and longstanding use and understanding of biological and scientific terms.”
The President says that “replacing the immutable biological reality of sex with an internal, fluid, and subjective sense of self unmoored from biological facts.” The Executive Order concluded, “Accordingly, my Administration will defend women’s rights and protect freedom of conscience by using clear and accurate language and policies that recognize women are biologically female, and men are biologically male.”

Online commenters were quick to mock the bizarre display. “People just need to start pelting her with tomatoes. I don’t know why we allow these people to continue spewing lies,” one user reacted.” These people are just plain dumb. There have only been two genders for 6 thousand years,” another noticed. One account simply stated, ” Of course, her sermon cites more of the Handmaiden Tale than actual Scripture.”
