EDIT: I would implore everyone to read this. Even if your not religious or Christian for that matter, he makes excellent points regarding why this is happening, who is pushing it, why they are doing so, who is benefiting from this even now and where it seems to be going.
Transgenderism, Transhumanism, and the Top-down Revolution to Transform Humanity
Transgenderism did not just happen. It was a carefully crafted, top-down revolution financed by billionaires and major industries. Why did this happen?

Ten years ago, nobody had transgender or non-binary kids. No one talked about transgenderism. Pretending to be a woman was a sick fetish confined mostly to older men. Nobody celebrated them or even remotely considered them role models for children. Teenage girls struggled with all kinds of issues, but uncertainty over their sex was not one of them.
All that has completely changed in a very short period of time. Transgenderism seemingly dominates our lives. High percentages of children in some areas are claiming a trans identity at younger and younger ages. Trans characters are everywhere in entertainment. The legal system, along with our language, are being redefined to erase biological women from existence. All this is happening to widespread acclaim among our societal elites.
A recent example is the
"Drag Isn't Dangerous Telethon" put on by Producer Entertainment Group with several LGBTQ organizations and corporate sponsors including Black Queer Town Hall, Concord, DeleteMe, Five Senses Reeling/Obsessed GLAAD, GLSEN, Headcount.org, Loyal Studios, OutTV, Q.Digital, OUTtv, Trixie Cosmetics, SERV Vodka and UTA. The four-hour livestream event was designed to be a celebration of all things drag and reportedly raised more than $500,000 from 5,000 individual donors. Quite a few "A-List" celebrities were in attendance and voiced their full-throated support for men pretending to be women. Actress Marcia Gay Harden (the mom on the hit show
So Help Me Todd) had this to say at the event about why she supports Transgender rights:
Not so long ago, claiming to be "non-binary" would have gotten you therapy. Now Hollywood moms gush over their mentally ill offspring on shows celebrating a perverted male fetish. If you are confused as to how this could have possibly happened, rest assured –
your confusion is intentional.
Transgenderism is presented as a human rights movement. A bottom-up reaction of a "marginalized" group of people who were "born in the wrong bodies" and are looking for medical help and acceptance. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Transgenderism is a top-down revolution. It was conceived and funded by billionaires in alliance with Big Tech, Big Pharma, Big Finance, Big Foundations, and NGOs. Everything you see now, including the intentional targeting of children, has been done on purpose through the channeling of billions of dollars into all aspects of our society. Transgenderism is not a natural phenomenon we are just now "discovering". It was engineered.
But if so –
why?
Jennifer Bilek is a feminist, and an investigative journalist, who has looked into the people, industries, and non-profits financing the Transgender movement. Bilek doesn't appear to be religious, so hers is a mostly secular analysis based on "follow the money" investigative techniques. While recognizing that Transgenderism is a cult and that our society is broken, her secular outlook causes her to miss some of the deeper spiritual causes of the movement. Regardless, her explosive 38 minute video below is vital watching for anyone wanting to begin to understand what is happening.
We highly encourage you to watch the video, as we will not recap the whole thing here. Instead, based on Bilek's work and other research, we would like to provide some additional commentary on key aspects of Transgenderism. (For an Orthodox Christian MD's view on this subject, please read
Elephants in the (Trans) Gender Room)
One of the key figures Bilek mentions is
Martine Rothblatt. In addition to being "transgender", Rothblatt is a pioneer of the transhumanist movement.
Who needs God when man can create eternal life on his own? Transhumanists are upfront about wanting to be a god, or at least making one via technology. Rothblatt has been quoted as
saying,
"we are making God as we are implementing technology that is ever more all-knowing, ever-present, all-powerful, and beneficent."
To get people prepared for a post-human future, it is necessary to get them to disassociate from their own bodies. This is from an article by a girl who is now a
"detransitioner":
She got this anti-human philosophy from Reddit Groups, Tumblr blogs, and other Social Media. The ultimate source for it all was Rothblatt and his fellow Transhumanist philosophers. To embrace the Transhumanist future, people must be conditioned to reject the necessity for a human body. Step 1, apparently, is getting humans to reject the biological reality of sex. If you are willing to deny your own intrinsic nature, then isn't everything else fair game?
The legal framework established for Transgenderism is useful for any kind of human augmentation or manipulation. If people "trapped" in the wrong bodies can change their sex, then why can't suffering people do whatever it takes to make them happy: implant any and all technology, manipulate DNA, radically alter their bodies, live in VR, become a data stream uploaded to the Cloud, or anything else for that matter?
After all, if you can mainstream the sexual mutilation of children, just what line could be left you can't cross?

Transhumanists dream of living as a totally new species –
Humanity the Upgrade. But to really drive that kind of biological change, they need to control reproduction. Sterilizing as much of the current generation as possible opens the the possibility for the Medical Technological Complex to truly own human reproduction. From there, the possibilities are limitless. Transgenderism may not be the only front in the war to stop natural births. We know that sperm counts in men are declining, that the mRNA vaxes seem to pool in gonads with possible long term fertility effects, and that overall fertility rates are cratering all over the world. Yet, no one in authority seems inclined to do much of anything about all of that, despite the danger
lack of babies presents for the continuation of our very species.
The common explanation for that unconcern is that our global elites want to reduce the population. That may be true. It could also be that the Med-Tech industry wants to become the sole controller of reproduction for ideological, religious, and financial reasons. By erasing women, Transgenderism furthers the goal of taking away the
distinctive ability of women to create new life.
"Transgender" children are not born. They are made. Major law firms got the ball rolling by creating the
legal construct of a transgender child. Funding then started flowing to Social Media influencers, entertainment, media, and education to promote the idea to children that they could have been "born in the wrong body". If this were only about
Drag Queen Story Hour at libraries, most kids would be safe. But it isn't. Transgenderism is everywhere, especially in the schools. Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker is an active supporter of Transgenderism. Along with his transgender cousin "Jennifer "Pritzker, he has used his family's philanthropic apparatus to drive the ideology and practice of disembodiment through out our entire culture. As a governor, he is using his position to drive this agenda into the
schools:
Other states have passed similar measures. The material taught to young children under Pritzker's law has been called "pornographic". The exposure to sexually explicit material at a young age is traumatizing to children. Trauma can lead to bodily disassociation, among other negative outcomes. A whole generation of children are being turned into LGBTQ neurotics as a matter of state educational policy.
But it is not enough for states to create mentally ill children. Many states are also actively
blocking parents from interfering in the "transitions" of their minors:
The goal of all this is to present Transgenderism, and the coming Transhumanism, as "just another way to be human". Our next generation will be traumatized, indoctrinated, possibly sterilized, mentally ill, and passively accepting of things we can scarcely imagine.
Our children are the target. We need to be in the way.
Accepting homosexuality as "normal", and not a mental disorder, was the first step towards getting us where we are.
Homosexuality is not normal any more than Transgenderism is. Homosexuality should never have been mainstreamed. I highly recommend you download this PDF by author Jeffrey B. Satinover, M.D., Ph.D. titled
The "Trojan Couch: How the Mental Health Associations Misrepresent Science". In this paper, Satinover blows the lid off how shoddy science combined with political activism and violent intimidation to create the myth of "born gay".
Homosexuality is itself a fetish and a rejection of biological reality. In addition, the fight against AIDS and for "gay rights" led to the creation of massive foundations whose billions have gone into promoting Transgenderism. Curiously, these charitable foundations also seem to frequently "fund" projects that are profitable for the industry or industries from which their primary wealth originates.
An example named by Bilek was the
ARCUS foundation, originally set up to promote AIDS research / education, and gay rights. ARCUS was founded by
Jon Stryker, whose grandfather founded Stryker Corp, which just happened to sell $14.4 billion in medical equipment in 2020. Stryker has given away over $675 million in his lifetime. In June 2021 alone, he gave $5.3 million to University of California, Berkeley's College of Environmental Design.
You can buy a lot of influence for that kind of money. Especially when you spread it around to cash strapped organizations such as universities, medical schools, clinics, researchers, newspapers, etc. It is just a coincidence, obviously, that such donations encourage people to get costly surgeries benefitting the primary source of Stryker's wealth.
To explore this grift further, let's go back to the Pritzker family and talk about "Jennifer" Pritzker's
philanthropic initiatives. (SSI below is how the author refers to Transgenderism –
Synthetic Sexual Identities).
Transgenderism and transhumanism are major cash cows for the Medical-Technological Complex, which actually dwarfs the Military Industrial Complex in size. Many of the individuals behind the movement are wealthy homosexuals who started out pushing for gay rights. These people are true revolutionaries out to change society, but they are also happy to get paid while doing it. Transgenderism means surgery, surgical equipment, hormones, puberty blockers, anti-biotics, anti-rejection drugs, cosmetic surgeries (shave down Adams apples, jaw shaved off, etc.), breast implants, other drugs, and psychiatric care.
Heck, even
Botox companies are getting into the Transgender business:
The best science money can buy.
At the end of this article,
Bilek speculates on why so many rich people are committed to changing the very nature of humanity:
Profit certainly plays a role. Wanting vindication for your own obsessions plays a role. Wanting to be God and achieve immortality via human action plays a role. But that's not all that we are dealing with here. This is also a spiritual battle. The greatest in human history.
Satan hates God's created order. Satan hates human beings made in the image of God. Satan hates women, who bear future servants of God. Satan hates children, who have a chance to grow in God's grace. Satan's hate alone would be enough for him to want to ruin us as a species. But there is another reason.
Jesus Christ is both Man and God. He was born into the world and totally changed it by His presence. His coming was foretold, but no one needed to materially prepare the way for Him. The Antichrist, by contrast, will be a normal man who will rule most (if not all) of the world. Preparations for such a rule must be made in advance. Antichrist will refer to the system just as much as the man.
Whether the drive to fundamentally change humanity succeeds or fails, it is not hard to see how all this works towards the future rule of Satan's own chosen one. If traumatized people are unable to even speak about the reality of biological sex, then how are they to resist the coming to power of a man who seemingly has all the answers? A man who is supported by all the powerful people they have been brainwashed to trust?
There will be an Antichrist. There will be an end to history, the Second Coming, the Resurrection, and the Life of the World to Come. It is fashionable at this time for us to believe all of these events are close. But is that necessarily the case? There are examples from history when prophesied disasters were avoided through repentance and prayer. Could the Orthodox Church lead us to such holiness that God lets the world spin on a generation or two longer?
Whether that is possible or not, it is clear that a spiritually healthy, faithful Orthodox Church will be key to any meaningful resistance to the coming Transhumanist order. Which is why the Orthodox Church has become a target for the
big money behind the trans agenda. We could go into
many examples of financed subversion within the Orthodox Church. However, one group of subversives really does stand above all others – Fordham University's Orthodox Christian Studies Center. Below are two reasons why.
In partnership with the British University of Exeter, and funded by the British Council, the Friends of the British Council, and the Henry Luce Foundation, Fordham produced a report in 2020 titled
Eastern Orthodoxy & Sexual Diversity: Perspectives and Challenges from the Modern West. This gem of scholarship quotes noted pedophile Michel Foucault as an expert, and includes such useful information as the paragraph below on "transgender children":
A transgender 4 or 5 year old? God help us. This is the product of Orthodox scholarship? An innocent child can be "trapped in the wrong body" causing him or her to act out when confronted with bathroom usage? The report is chock full of such denials of common sense, reality, and authentic Christian teaching.
Frighteningly, this report also included the "good news" that an appreciation for "sexual diversity" was finding its way into the Orthodox Church:
If you read the report, it is clear that the quoted paragraph above illustrates the embrace of "sexual diversity" that the authors intend for the entire Orthodox Church. Thank God we Orthodox have no Papacy to force such heresy upon us. But we must remember that the Antichrist will appear to the world to be the Second Coming of the actual Christ. He will not appear to be a tyrant, nor will he spread atheism. Rather, he will appear to stand
in place of Christ. Many Christians will follow him into sin. Perverting the Christian Faith makes it more difficult for the uneducated to tell the difference between authentic Christianity and the religion of the Antichrist.
More recently, Fordham Press gave us
Gender Essentialism and Orthodoxy: Beyond Male and Female by Bryce E Rich – PhD in Theology from the University of Chicago whose specializations include queer theory and theologies. Any guesses as to the case this book puts forward concerning the gender binary? Description below.
What do you suppose the market is for a book like this? Orthodoxy is a small minority in the West, and this is a book that will offend the vast majority of faithful Christians. It is unlikely to make any money for anyone. How much should we bet that no one involved in the publication of this book cares about that fact at all? The people underwriting these subversive projects already have plenty of money, and ways to make even more. The goal of such a book, and the previously noted report, is to lay the intellectual groundwork for utterly changing the Orthodox Church, thus making her compatible with the dogmas of the growing global religion.
Fordham is a major problem, especially as it is tightly connected to the
Greek Archdiocese, but there are many other
snakes in the Orthodox Church. We must be aware of what we are up against from the world – who finances the transformation of humanity, who benefits from it, and why it is all happening. At the same time, we must constantly guard the sanctity of our own Orthodox Church, even as we embrace holiness to keep ourselves pure while preaching the faith to any who will listen.
