DIS24-Proposition 15 (SJR 34): Codifying parental rights- DIScourse


Listen Later

In this episode of DIScourse, we delve into a critical discussion with FBC Senior Pastor Zach Poling and Brian Roberts from Grayson County Conservatives, as they explain key biblical principles and highlight alarming red flags in our legislation. Central to our talk is Proposition 15 (SJR 34), which threatens to undermine our parental rights by presenting a guise of protection through the Texas legislature—a deceptive ploy designed to relinquish our God-given rights to government oversight. While parental rights are already robustly safeguarded by established federal case law and state statutes, particularly within the Texas Family Code and Education Code, the current political landscape reveals a disturbing pattern where our rights are at risk of being usurped by those lacking values and integrity. It is imperative to recognize this moment as an important juncture; we must cultivate skepticism towards our political system, scrutinize the motives behind proposed legislation, and hold accountable those jeopardizing our families and education. A closer inspection of the financial connections between billionaires, politicians, lobbyists, and PACs reveals a concerning trajectory tied directly to Proposition 15, which seeks to exploit our parental rights through a cunning bait-and-switch. The proposition language may seem appealing at first, emphasizing the widely accepted value of parental rights, yet it cleverly obscures the true implications of the amendment that follows. This amendment threatens to redefine parental responsibilities by intertwining them with governmental oversight, making parents accountable to the state for vague obligations to "protect" and "nurture." Such legally ambiguous terms leave room for interpretation that will in time infringe upon our God-given parental rights, transforming them from inherent rights into privileges conditional upon government approval. It is alarming that many PACs and lobbying groups, often backed by wealthy donors, encourage surrendering these essential rights. Texas: before supporting Proposition 15, consider whether you can fully trust the amendment's language not to be weaponized against parents. Remember, the future of parental autonomy in Texas hinges on your decision; voting AGAINST Proposition 15 is a stand for safeguarding your family's fundamental rights. Join Jackie Besinger in this crucial conversation, where we explore the metaphor of being the frog in the pot, highlighting how gradual change can lead us to overlook the urgency of our circumstances.
