  • March for Life Re-Condensed Pro-Life Speech

    The following is the final version of the speech directly as I read it in Washington DC at the March for Life. I had to do it quickly because there were many speakers but the people loved it.

    March for Life Re-Condensed Pro-Life Speech

    My name is Chastity, and I am a transgender woman here to represent the Rainbow Pro-Life Alliance as well as the Transgender people specifically. I am the last person you might expect to see at a Pro-Life event because I am not aligned with a specific church, political party, or anything else that you have been told is the foundation of defending the unborn. Still, I do follow the Golden Rule as taught by Jesus and other great teachers.

    As a former fetus, I speak for those who have not lived to speak for themselves. I speak for the unborn humans who were declared unworthy of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Each one of them was a human who would have been capable of doing many of the things I enjoy. I am not more or less worthy of life than those who were aborted for whatever reason invented by doctors, politicians, their parents, and whoever else convinced them that murder was the only solution to a child they saw as a problem.

    As an Asexual and Transgender person, I speak for many of the LGBTQIA+ people who were murdered or driven to suicide because they looked different, loved a person of the wrong gender, or were born with a soul or body that could not conform to the binary that society arbitrarily decided was required to earn family, friends, employment, housing, or medical care.

    For me personally, being Pro-Life is about protecting the lives of the most innocent souls who have done nothing wrong but have been killed and robbed of their life and future choices. The Pro-Choice philosophy does not respect their choices to live and become what they were conceived to be. Every single choice we make depends on being allowed to live long enough to know what these choices are, and also to understand that no choice would be possible unless our parents had chosen to let us live.

    The Pro-Choice philosophy does not ultimately care about our bodily autonomy because this ideology says it would have been completely okay for every single one of us to have been murdered in the womb. The only choice offered by those claiming to be Pro-Choice is Abortion.

    I also ask you to forgive many of the other Rainbow people who have been deceived into the Pro-Choice ideology, which promised to respect their bodily autonomy but failed to deliver on these promises, and only gave them death as a solution. Every one of the gay, transgender, and intersex people can be targeted for termination by detecting “genetic defects” which make us different, even at the DNA level. Discrimination against my people is just as common both before and after we are born.

    If the mainstream Cisgender Heterosexual Pro-Life people and the LGBTQIA+ community worked together and remembered who the real enemy is, it would lead to a much safer world for all of us. There are many misunderstandings based on false information. People like me and the others in Rainbow Pro-Life Alliance are a bridge to help the two sides see that we are not enemies by nature, but because we have been given the wrong messages by those who profit from confusing us to win elections or make money from killing us.

    And despite what you may have heard, the Pro-Life movement is the greatest ally that the LGBTQIA+ community can have, because you are fighting for our lives, even if you don’t truly know who or what we are. You may not know much about my community, nor do you have to agree with me about everything. But I am here today to tell you that as long as we agree that it is wrong to kill the most innocent people before they have a chance to live their lives, I think we can come to a better understanding over time and bridge the divide between the Rainbow people and the rest of the Pro-Life movement.

  • Plans for March for Life 2026

    For today’s post, I am doing something a little bit different. I am scheduled to fly on January 22 with some friends to the March for Life event that is held annually in Washington, DC. This year will be my first time at the March for Life, and it was the first time I considered it as a possibility, even though I have always wanted to go.

    In November 2025, I had discussed it in a board meeting with the other members of the Rainbow Pro-Life Alliance. Our group is planning an event that night. See our website: for details on attending.

    However, I am nervous about the travel aspect of this trip. First of all, only yesterday I was made aware of the new law of a REAL ID being required to fly on airplanes. With less than two weeks before the trip, I won’t have time to apply for a REAL ID and receive it in time. However, I should still be permitted to fly by bringing all the required documentation to prove my identity, residence, and citizenship. I have my original birth certificate, social security card, and will print my lease and renters’ insurance at a print shop next week.

    As it turns out, I don’t have any mail delivered to my current address and am still receiving mail at my mom’s place. There is also the increasingly digital world we live in, such as the fact that utility bills, bank statements, W-2s, and other documents are all digital PDF files that I have to go to FedEx or Copy-Rite in Lee’s Summit to get printed. As an aside, I could write an entire post about the reasons I don’t have a working printer at home, nor do I have a chance because of my insistence on using only Linux and Free and Open Source Software.

    By the time I get to the airport, I will have all the documentation to prove anything I need, so they should let me on the plane. However, that is only one aspect of this trip that makes me nervous.

    I am a little bit worried about the TSA body scanners and pat-downs that I will have to endure to be allowed to fly. For most people, this is probably not an issue because most are passable as either a male or a female. The agents have to select which mode the machines scan the body, and there are certain things they expect. However, for transgender people like me, our bodies do not match what machines or humans expect to see.

    I never changed my name or gender marker legally, and so they will probably scan me as a male in the machine, then the machine will think I have something strange in my chest because of my boobs. Yet they can’t scan me as a female either, because then it will detect my penis, which I could never afford to get removed. But beyond that, I am just nervous about how the agents will treat me because they could be people who don’t like transgender people and might harass me.

    With all these fears and doubts, you might wonder why I still want to go to the March for Life. I want to go because I am the Token Transgender person of the Rainbow Pro-Life Alliance. We are not your average Pro-Life Organization, and this will be the biggest event I have participated in with them so far.

    The following is the first draft of an essay/speech I have prepared to explain who I am and why I think the LGBTQIA+ community should be involved in the Pro-Life vs Pro-Choice debate on Abortion.

    Why I am a Pro-Life Transgender Woman

    My name is Chastity, and I am here to represent the Rainbow Pro-Life Alliance as well as the Transgender people specifically.

    Many people believe that the Pro-Life Movement depends on a specific branch of Christianity that is full of people who hate gay and transgender people. The media and the Pro-Abortion lobby continue to promote this lie because the last thing they want is for us to all work together.

    Being Pro-Life is about protecting the lives of the most innocent group of humans: those who have done nothing wrong because they haven’t even been born yet. Those who choose to let these children live are making the statement that they should be allowed to live their lives and do what they were made to do, whether or not we agree with the people that they will become. Therefore, the Pro-Life position is ultimately Pro-Choice by allowing these babies to be born and make their choices, for better or worse.

    On the contrary, the Pro-Choice position cannot in any way respect the choices or bodily autonomy of humans because the Pro-Choice philosophy ultimately says it would have been completely okay to murder them in the womb. The only choice offered by those claiming to be Pro-Choice is Abortion. When it comes to choice over who to vote for in elections, whether to homeschool children, or choosing to vaccinate these children or not, they often do not respect the choice of the parents.

    I speak as an Asexual Transgender person who will not Procreate. I have no financial or social reason for being Pro-Life. I am also not associated with a particular religion. However, I do follow the Golden Rule above all principles and find value in the teachings of Jesus, as many others do. Yet, I speak and write my opinions as part of the Rainbow Pro-Life Alliance, as well as an individual who knows quite clearly that people like me are those most likely to be killed both before and after birth.

    I do not have the power to make the world understand the unique experience of being Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, or Asexual. However, what I can do is tell you that I see parallels between the hate crimes against the Rainbow people and the unborn babies.

    Gay people have historically been murdered, denied housing, employment, and disowned by friends and family. Moreover, they have been accused of being a danger to children.

    Transgender people are currently experiencing what Gay people did years ago. We are murdered or arrested just because we look different or because we used the “wrong” restroom, even if it does match our biological sex. More often than not, we are told that our identity is not “real” but merely a mental illness that can only be cured by murdering us or sending us to conversion therapy until we commit suicide from hopelessness and rejection.

    However, much to my disappointment, I have seen many of the LGBTQIA+ people embrace a Pro-Choice philosophy that says it is okay to murder the unborn for any reason or no reason given at all. Ultimately, I reject that anyone has the right to murder anyone, whether born or unborn, male or female, Jew or Gentile, gay or straight, black or white.

    I believe that the only reason the LGBTQIA+ mostly embraces the Pro-Choice ideology is that they falsely believe the movement is about respecting their bodily autonomy. They can even get some services at Planned Parenthood, but at a price of working with the enemy, which is the actual danger to children, because it makes a profit from killing them. For many of us, the Pro-Abortion message is the only one we hear, because we have not been welcome in Church nor seen Christians who act as Jesus taught them to.

    If the mainstream Cisgender Heterosexual Pro-Life people and the LGBTQIA+ community worked together and remembered who the real enemy is, it would lead to a much safer world for all of us. There are many misunderstandings based on false information. People like me and the others in Rainbow Pro-Life Alliance are a bridge to help the two sides see that we are not enemies by nature, but because we have been given the wrong messages by those who profit from confusing us to win elections or make money from killing us.

    And despite what you may have heard, the Pro-Life movement is the greatest ally that the LGBTQIA+ community can have, because we are at higher risk for being aborted due to supposed “genetic defects,” which can actually explain a lot of the causes of why people are Gay, Transgender, or Intersex.

    You may not know much about my community, nor do you have to agree with me about everything. But I am here today to tell you that as long as we agree that it is wrong to kill the most innocent people before they have a chance to life their life, I think we can come to a better understanding over time and bridge the divide between the Rainbow people and the rest of the Pro-Life movement.

  • Chapter 17: Blessed are the Peacemakers

    Right now, in September 2025, the world has gone mad on social media, with everyone having an opinion on the murder of Charlie Kirk. I have no such opinion about him but I think it is a fine time to remind you why I have been committed to non-violence for many years. Therefore, my only statement that I will ever make is that it doesn’t matter who Charlie was or whether you like the things he said; the fact is, nobody should be shot just for what they are speaking.

    I didn’t know Charlie and I didn’t know who he was prior to his being shot on September 10, 2025. However, I thought it was quite strange that this one act of murder got so much media attention, even though people are getting shot, bombed, stabbed, or starved to death, including many of those who are innocent and have done nothing wrong.

    Although I didn’t know Charlie Kirk personally, I think he had the right idea because he did not commit violence against people, but instead he had debates with them and talked about disagreements rather than resorting to violence. He talked to people, and he said some things that people disagreed with sometimes. After the news broke that he was shot, many people on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok were celebrating that he was shot and said he deserved it.

    The real tragedy is not the death of Charlie Kirk but the death of freedom of speech. If you kill someone just because you don’t like what they said, then the same reasoning could be used to kill you when someone doesn’t like what you said.

    Moreover, I think violence is for the weak. I think it takes a stronger person to have difficult conversations about areas of disagreement and try to resolve them through peaceful means. I personally think that guns, bombs, and all manner of military equipment should be destroyed because nobody should be killing anyone.

    Let me be clear, I understand that others are violent and that they do not follow my philosophy of radical pacifism and peaceful protest. I also don’t think someone can reach this stage without an evolution in ethics and a strong moral framework based on a solid philosophy or religion.

    To be a peacemaker is to take the hard route, instead of the easy path of violence. Living peacefully and resolving conflicts takes time, conversations, studying history, reading books, and considering each new issue as it arises.

    Charlie was not perfect. He was just as flawed as any human is, but he did identify as a Christian, and I think he would have understood that violence is not good. Those who call themselves Christians would do well to remember what Jesus said about the importance of being peaceful and non-violent.

    Matthew 26:47 While he was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, arrived. With him was a large crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent by the chief priests and elders of the people. 48 (Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, “The one I kiss is the man. Arrest him!”) 49 Immediately he went up to Jesus and said, “Greetings, Rabbi,” and kissed him. 50 Jesus said to him, “Friend, do what you are here to do.” Then they came and took hold of Jesus and arrested him. 51 But one of those with Jesus grabbed his sword, drew it out, and struck the high priest’s slave, cutting off his ear. 52 Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back in its place! For all who take hold of the sword will die by the sword. 53 Or do you think that I cannot call on my Father and that he would send me more than 12 legions of angels right now? 54 How then would the scriptures that say it must happen this way be fulfilled?” 55 At that moment Jesus said to the crowd, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest me like you would an outlaw? Day after day I sat teaching in the temple courts, yet you did not arrest me. 56 But this has happened so that the scriptures of the prophets would be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples left him and fled.

    Charlie was not a Vegan, unfortunately, and he did not take a Vegan seriously when they brought up the issue. Although Charlie called himself Pro-Life when it came to humans, he was dismissive of the idea that we should not cause unnecessary suffering and death to animals. He also interrupted a lot and changed the subject.

    Charlie Kirk Deleted This Debate With a Vegan

    I Debated Charlie Kirk – He Deleted The Video

    I bring this up not to say that Charlie deserved to be shot. Rather, I mention it to show why even his attitudes and those who celebrated his death are operating under a culture of violence. People believe that they have the right to kill any animal, including humans, as soon as they disagree with them or are of a difference race, species, religion, or political affiliation.

    Charlie got the Vegan topic wrong, and sadly, due to his death, we will never see him become consistently pro-life.

    There is one thing I do agree with Charlie on, though; he was right to be against abortion. In fact, one of the things many people criticized him for was saying that the 45 million babies killed in abortion was worse than the Holocaust, where 6 million Jews were killed.

    Charlie Kirk Compares Abortion to the Holocaust

    Charlie’s logic is correct on this issue. Deciding that a group of people is unwanted or undesirable and then killing them all is an unjustifiable genocide.

    And if Charlie were still alive, I would suggest to him that he use this same logic to reconsider what humans do to animals.

    The Ugly Truth: Most Important Films to Watch

    At this time, people are also trying to blame the transgender people for the death of Charlie Kirk. I must admit that part of the problem is that so many young people, including many transgender people, are celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk. This does not make us look any better in a time when we are the most hated group of people in the United States of America.

    Shortly after the death of Charlie Kirk, I couldn’t help but notice that the attitudes of some of my coworkers had changed towards me. Everyone was talking about the death of Charlie Kirk because it was all over the news media. They looked at me as if I had killed him, just because I am transgender.

    I didn’t want to make a statement about this issue, but I also felt a responsibility to say something because I will not risk my silence being interpreted as meaning that I am in favor of the murder of Charlie Kirk.

    When Transgender people are happy about the death of some famous dude like Charlie, how is it any better than when people murder transgender people?

    When Charlie jokes and cuts off a Vegan who questions him on veganism, how is he any better than those who laughed at him after he was shot?

    In times like this when a single word can inspire people to shoot or bomb people, I am reminded of a quote from Schindler’s List when Oskar Schindler explained what true power is to Amon Goeth.

    Schindler: They fear us because we have the power to kill arbitrarily. A man commits a crime, he should know better. We have him killed and we feel pretty good about it. Or we kill him ourselves and we feel even better. That’s not power, though, that’s justice. That’s different than power. Power is when we have every justification to kill – and we don’t. Goeth: You think that’s power.

    Schindler: That’s what the emperors had. A man stole something, he’s brought in before the emperor, he throws himself down on the ground, he begs for mercy, he knows he’s going to die. And the emperor pardons him. This worthless man, he lets him go.

    Goeth: I think you are drunk.

    Schindler: That’s power, Amon. That is power.

    Similarly, I think true power is to be able to do better than violence. Instead, we can educate, we can peacefully protest, and we can write and record ideas that live long after we die. Which reminds me, I have one more quote to share for this chapter.

    V: “Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.”

    Killing people does not stop their ideas, their philosophy, their religion, or anything that they stood for. The death of someone solves nothing, helps no one, and is nothing to celebrate. Instead of killing people, become a peacemaker, because that is true power.

    Matthew 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the children of God.

  • Chapter 15: Love the Sinner Hate the Sin

    So many times in my life, I have heard the phrase “Love the sinner, hate the sin”. On the surface, it sounds good because you are saying that you love someone but disagree with what they do, but this calls into question both the intent behind the person speaking it and who they are saying it to.

    Interestingly, the only time I can remember hearing “Love the sinner, hate the sin” is when Christians are judging people for being gay or transgender. It doesn’t really work very well in this context because the person doesn’t know what the “sin” is that they are talking about. Imagine if you said, “Love the black person but hate the sin”. This statement implies that you think someone born with black skin has somehow sinned or erred in some way, as if they could have done something different and been born with a different skin color.

    I know what you’ll say next: “But being gay is a choice!”

    First, it isn’t a choice in any meaningful sense. Second, if it were a choice, it would actually be a fine choice. Third, you know what is a choice? Shutting up when you don’t know what you’re talking about.

    I will use 2 examples to illustrate the point I am making.

    Judging the Gay Person

    A person finds out that someone they know is gay. Then they start talking about hating their sin or their sinful lifestyle. But the truth is, a straight person does not know what sin they are speaking about. Are they speaking about the sin of being attracted to the same sex, which is not an action? Are they talking about a specific sexual action the person is doing? Are they in their house watching them as they do this action by themself or with their partner and judging them for doing it wrong? What specifically are they even talking about?

    Judging the Transgender Person

    Suppose someone discovers that someone is transgender, or simply assumes it because they don’t look like what they think a man or woman should look like. Some thoughts they might have include

    • That person is too tall to be a woman! They must really be a man pretending to be a woman! Someone call the police!
    • That woman has a deep voice, I bet she is really a man!
    • That woman has small boobs, I bet it’s a man!
    • That woman has facial hair, it’s a man! Protect the children!
    • That man has boobs; it must have been a woman, but it has a beard. What the hell is it?
    • That man sounds like a woman. I bet she tried to act like a man because she was such an ugly woman!

    These are just a few examples of the things I have heard or read. Most of the time, these things are said on Facebook or YouTube comments on a news story about someone who was just trying to use the restroom or play a sport.

    But what I have noticed is that while gay people are judged for actions (whether real or imaginary), transgender people are judged for how their body looks. Whether they are being judged by how tall or short they are, the sound of their voice, or the size of their breasts (why are people staring at other people’s chests so much?), the point of all these sayings is to insult people for how they look. What is the sin they are hating as they claim to love the sinner? Wait, is a woman sinning if she grows facial hair due to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome? What about these thoughts or words about the size of their breasts? Is having a certain size of boobs a sin? What is the correct breast size, and how does someone make their boobs bigger or smaller?

    More context is needed even to know what the sin is that they are referring to. Most of the time, this person is very vague on what the sin is. That is because they don’t really know any information about the person they are judging. This phrase is used mostly to strangers whom they don’t know.

    When someone speaks of “sin”, the context usually implies that they think the person has made an error or is doing something morally wrong. These two definitions get mixed up. I will call these definitions A and B.

    Sin Version A: Making a wrong move, such as moving a chess piece that causes the loss of the game, or forgetting a semicolon in a C program that you are compiling. Or perhaps “missing the mark” when you throw a ball or shoot an arrow at a target.

    Sin Version B: Doing something that hurts someone, such as murder, lying, stealing, or committing adultery (having sex with someone other than your spouse).

    Sin versions A and B are not the same thing, and they are not compatible. Sin A refers to a mistake made when playing a game or doing some action that has no harmful consequences. Sin B means you did something that hurt a person, either permanently by killing them, or at least temporarily, such as stealing their money that you can theoretically pay back.

    Interestingly, when people say “Love the sinner, hate the sin”, they are not usually talking about a type B of sin. They don’t usually say it about murderers, rapists, thieves, or liars. No, instead they call the police, bring a lawsuit against them, or cut off contact with them. Do they talk about loving these people? No, they are too busy trying to protect themselves from this person who has hurt them or their friends/family.

    But more importantly, can you still love someone while you are posting on Facebook about how much you hate someone’s sin? It is kind of a hard thing to balance. Love and hate don’t usually go in the same sentence. How about just loving the sinner and leaving it at that?

    But once again, you are calling someone a sinner, as if somehow they are more in the wrong than you are. It is still hypocritical to speak of your neighbor as someone you love in spite of their being a sinner. When a person says this, they are implying that they are perfect and somehow not being a sinner, and this gives them the right to call someone else a sinner.

    Matthew 7:1 "Do not judge so that you will not be judged. 2 For by the standard you judge you will be judged, and the measure you use will be the measure you receive. 3 Why do you see the speck in your brother’s eye, but fail to see the beam of wood in your own? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye,’ while there is a beam in your own? 5 You hypocrite! First, remove the beam from your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

    It’s also worth mentioning that the statement “Love the sinner, hate the sin” only applies in the context of Christianity. Rarely do non-Christians ever use the word “sin”. However, the culture, most of which has been raised in one of the denominations of Christianity, understands that you are judging them, even if they are not sure what they are being judged for.

    The only advice I can give here is to stop using this phrase unless you are prepared to be very specific in what way you love someone, and also what sin it is that you hate. And PLEASE CHOOSE A DIFFERENT SIN ONCE IN A WHILE. The LGBTQIA+ people are tired of being picked on as if we are the only sinners. You would be wise to look at what sins you and many other self-identified “Christians” are doing while distracting themselves with the sins of others, so that they don’t have to change their own behavior. Remove all the sin from your own life, then we will talk.
