Right mind

by Terri Lackey, Stevensville

Are you out of your mind? What’s on your mind? Would you mind giving me a hand? Have you lost your mind? Nobody in their right mind. Oh just mind your own business. The mind is a terrible thing to waste. Mind over matter. Keep that in mind. 

The definition of mind is: The part or faculty of a person by which one feels. A person of great mental ability. Individual conscientiousness, memory, or recollection. Combination of cognitive faculties that provides conscientiousness, thinking, perception, judgment and especially reasoning.

All of this came to my mind while I was watching the Senate floor in Helena, discuss whether or not they should support a bill that defined sex in Montana law. At first glance, one would say, “what on earth”? But then, after listening to the reason the bill was being presented, it starts to make sense. In today’s society, somehow, our words have all gotten a little distorted and I am not sure who had the power to change the meanings, just because, or why we have accepted these new definitions. The bill they were discussing simply took the original meaning of the word, sex; male and female, and put it into Montana law, so the courts could be clear on the definitions. Crazy isn’t it, that we would need such a bill? Not as crazy as the proponents on the floor, who defended gender-fluidity, diversity, equity, the list of 85 genders and the LGBTQP movement, saying this bill was discriminatory. And of course the litigation scare tactic was part of it as well because we live in a society that is “sue happy” and our judicial system is agenda driven. The legislators, who do NOT defend our children against the evil indoctrination, that says it is OK to mutilate their body before they are even able to drive, need to be questioned. I’m sorry if you think you were born something other than a “boy’ or a “girl”, because someone put that thought into your “mind”. 

This is where the statement, “Nobody in their RIGHT MIND would do such a thing” comes in. Nobody in their right mind, would want to harm a child. Nobody in their right mind, would want a child to mutilate their God-given body. Nobody in their right mind, would think it is OK to let Drag Queens read to their children. Nobody in their right mind, would support the idea of a movement that completely destroys any chance of ever having a biological family. Nobody in their right mind, would allow gay clubs in our schools. Nobody in their right mind, would want to destroy the family structure. Nobody in their right mind, would take God out of school. Nobody in their right mind, would want to destroy the very foundation on which this country was founded. 

Are you following me? So, if these people are NOT in their right mind as defined above, what mind are they in? The definition of “not in one’s right mind” is mentally ill! So our country is trying to be taken over by people who are mentally ill, and we are letting it happen. You can have any belief you want, you can have your own opinion, but you can’t have your own truth, despite what Oprah says! You may think you’re a 2 spirit, binary, transgender butterfly; but then you have to suffer the consequence of truth, when you throw yourself off a building and you can’t fly. You have the freedom of your own belief, until that belief affects society. When your beliefs are destructive to society, by not teaching the truth and confusing and harming innocent children, you are not in your right mind. 

God says “It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.” Luke 17:2

“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

Truth or consequences! Be in your “right mind.” Let’s fight for the children!
