It’s been a phenomenal response, thanks to you. Your voice definitely counts. Although we don’t know the exact breakdown of “for vs against” the proposed “Conversion Therapy” ban, the Government simply won’t be able to ram this controversial bill through as they wanted to. They now have a major headache.

Here is Family First’s submission regarding the Conversion Practices Prohibition Legislation Bill.

I do not normally voice personal opinions on social media but I cannot stay quiet when our government is steadily making decisions that remove my rights to raise my children as I believe is right.

Here is an intelligent critique of the Conversion Practices Prohibition Bill, written by the Free Speech Union. We encourage you to read the full article, in which the Free Speech Union expertly explain why the the bill is an “ideological over-reach by the Government”, and that the proposed bill not only “undermines free speech” but also constrains “freedom of religious expression and speech”.

Yet another report of state schools knowingly changing a child’s name and ‘gender’ at school, without informing the parents. The school followed a “Gender Support Plan” which informs teachers of a child’s new chosen name and gender identity (“trans,” “agender,” “non-binary,” etc.). The school also provided the girl a year’s worth of counselling in support of her new identity. All this was kept secret from the child’s parents. This story comes from America, but could it be happening here in New Zealand schools? Possibly yes! Read on …

As our Government seeks to ban ‘Conversion Therapy’, while at the same time supporting the use of puberty blockers and gender reassignment surgery, we need to question the motives behind this and also the effects on family and society. There is yet more disturbing evidence of an extraordinary increase in teenagers seeking gender transition, and state organisations are seemingly encouraging this. Here are some extracts from an article in Prospect, exposing the rapid rise in teen gender transitioning taking place in the UK. Let us learn from mistakes being made overseas, before it’s too late here in NZ.

This guide takes you through the simple steps for making a submission, opposing the proposed ban on conversion therapy.

Netflix does a ‘hit-job’ on Christianity with a poorly constructed ‘documentary’ called Pray Away, which attempts to document the work of Christian ministries involved in ‘conversion therapy’. Woke media reviewers state that Pray Away “follows a brutal narrative arc” … whatever that means. However, author Becket Cook writes a wonderful critique of Netflix, and Hollywood in general, with his article – Netflix’s ‘Pray Away’ Seethes with Contempt for Christianity. Becket has considerable authority on this subject, as he was formerly gay himself and working in Hollywood. 

Don’t think this isn’t happening in New Zealand too… Mega-broadcaster BBC used to be regarded as one of the world’s leading broadcasters, renowned for its intelligent and objective content. That reputation has become tarnished over recent years as the BBC ramps up a much more biased agenda, focusing heavily on content filled to the brim

How safe are puberty blockers for our children? As our Government goes full speed ahead into banning so-called ‘Conversion Therapy’ (while at the same time seemingly endorsing the use of puberty blockers on pre-teens), we must conclude that the use of puberty blockers is also a form of ‘conversion therapy’ and one that is very dangerous indeed. In fact, experts are saying it’s “reckless, and dangerously tinkering with nature”.
