Some cultures simply devalue all human life, gradually, as theological death cultures like Hinduism and animism are perpetuated over many generations. But even Christian culture can drop into a death spiral when the natural cherishing of family relationships disintegrates, as it did in America with the establishment of age-segregated public school environments in the 1940s, and the fornication/abortion culture of the 1970s.
Siblings lost the foundations of brotherly love. Husbands began to mistreat, abuse or neglect their wives. But the most dreadful symptom of astorgos, the absence of natural affection, is maternal selfishness, leading to radical disregard for the life or health of an unborn child. Infanticide has been a cultural norm in post-Christian America for a half century; and now comes a demand for yet another cultural expression of astorgos.
This is a political demand from the trans world of trans women. They are determined to defy their birth-assigned gender. They want to “identify” as men. But, further, they want to defy God’s Creation by conceiving a child “as a man,” carrying a child “as a man,” and then giving birth and “chest-feeding” the child to prove that “men can get pregnant.”
In order to make this political charade work biologically, a pregnant woman must experiment with high dosages of testosterone to maintain her beard and other superficial traits which make her look like “a pregnant man.”
So what happens to the well-being of a child whose mother is dosing male hormones during pregnancy?
Presently, testosterone is classified as a teratogenic, US FDA pregnancy category X drug, suggesting it can induce birth defects. It is labeled as such because “studies in pregnant women have demonstrated a risk to the fetus, and/or human or animal studies have shown fetal abnormalities; risks of the drug outweigh the potential benefits.”
The attached article is a political diatribe posing as a medical paper. In it the authors make much of the mental health of mothers who insist they look like males to “deal” with life. The authors are putting political pressure on the medical establishment to put the “mental health” of the political women high above the well-being of unborn children. Here is the absence of natural affection.
You can see its Biblical context in Romans_1:31 and 2 Timothy 3:3.

"I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested."

“Fact check; not locking down at all (like Sweden) would have saved lives in UK. Hard to believe how much money the UK spent on its sham covid inquiry.”
--Jay Bhattacharya
The UK Covid-19 Inquiry cost millions. It finally released the core political chapters of its long-awaited report. After nearly three years of hearings, millions of documents, and tens of millions of pounds spent on legal fees, the conclusion is now unmistakably clear.
They’ve learned nothing, even while watching millions suffer from lockdowns and vaccination.
Worse, they may not want to learn. The Inquiry’s structure, its analytical frame, even its carefully curated narrative all point in the same direction: away from the possibility that Britain’s pandemic response was fundamentally misguided.
Bill Madden writes, "Refusing illegal orders in the military is difficult to do because they normally are generated high in the chain of command and very few officers in the chain really know what is or is not a legal order. Immediate superiors can be very demanding and the orders are usually given in high pressure environments. Refusing an illegal military order is tantamount to whistleblowing and, as much good as it does for the concept of truth, the whistleblower’s life is made miserable as a punishment for his honesty and a warning to others."
I watched this happen with Army Spec Michael New during the Clinton years. He disobeyed an illegal Clinton order, was arrested on base in Germany, was then given an unjust, unconstitutional trial, and then a Bad Conduct Discharge. But he stood his ground the whole time and has been proven right since.
