Stripping Justice Bare
United Kingdom Set To Allow Men To Strip-Search Women
Isaiah 5:20
Woe to those who call evil good
and good evil,
who put darkness for light
and light for darkness,
who put bitter for sweet
and sweet for bitter!
Let’s be honest: Isaiah’s warning feels like it was written for today. We’re living in a world where justice has been flipped on its head and common sense is thrown out the window. What used to be clear—like the difference between right and wrong—has been completely muddled by a culture that’s more concerned with feelings than facts. And nowhere is this more obvious than in the UK’s latest move to let biological men strip-search women.
The Madness of Modern Justice
For years now, the UK has been heading down this road. Street preachers arrested for sharing their beliefs? Check. People raided by police for posting their opinions online? Of course. So it’s no surprise that they’ve now gone all-in on the transgender agenda, even to the point of putting women at risk.
Case in point: “Skye” Morden. Skye is a biological man who says he’s a woman. He’s been a police officer for over 20 years and now leads an organization called Trans in the City, which promotes transgender and non-binary rights. That’s all well and good, but here’s where things get problematic.
New rules from the British Transport Police (BTP) allow biological men who claim to be women to conduct intimate searches on female detainees, as long as they have a gender recognition certificate (GRC). It doesn’t matter if they still have male anatomy—what matters is their paperwork. So now, officers like Skye, who is clearly a man, can legally perform strip searches on women
.Think about that for a second. A woman in custody might have to endure an intimate search from a biological man. Sure, the rules say she can object, but let’s be real—who’s going to risk being labeled “transphobic” in that situation? The pressure to stay silent is enormous, and the system knows it
.This isn’t just a bad policy. It’s a slap in the face to women everywhere. For decades, women have fought for their rights and safety. Now, all of that is being erased in the name of inclusivity. The lines meant to protect women—lines that should be non-negotiable—are being blurred or outright ignored.
Isaiah’s words hit the nail on the head: “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil.” That’s exactly what’s happening. Policies like this aren’t progressive; they’re regressive. They don’t protect women—they put them in harm’s way.
For now, the U.S. hasn’t gone this far, but let’s not kid ourselves. These ideas have a way of crossing borders, especially when no one speaks up. If we stay silent, this kind of madness will make its way here, too.
The time to push back is now. We can’t just sit on the sidelines, shaking our heads. We need to say, clearly and boldly, that this isn’t right.
This isn’t just about bad laws or misguided policies. It’s about a culture that’s turned away from God’s design for humanity. When you reject the Creator, chaos is the natural result. The confusion we’re seeing about gender, justice, and morality is a symptom of something much deeper—a spiritual rebellion against God.
But while it’s tempting to focus our anger on people like Skye Morden, we have to remember that he’s not the real enemy. He’s a person made in God’s image, just like you and me, who’s caught up in a cultural storm of confusion. My hope for him—and for everyone like him—is that he would see the truth, turn to Christ, and find the freedom that only God can give.
We can’t afford to sit back and hope someone else speaks up. It’s up to us—parents, pastors, teachers, and everyday people—to push back against this cultural confusion. We need to stand firm, not out of hate, but out of love for truth and love for our neighbors.
And as we do, we need to pray. Pray for our leaders to have wisdom. Pray for our culture to wake up. And pray for people like Skye Morden to find the hope and healing they need in Jesus.
At the end of the day, the solution to this mess isn’t more outrage or better policies (though those help). The real solution is the gospel. Jesus is the only one who can cut through the darkness and bring true clarity.
