Colorado Forces Christian Camp to Allow Boys to Use Girls Showers, Restrooms, Sleeping Facilities

Have you ever heard of Camp IdRaHaJe? I haven’t either, until recently, and I know nothing about it, its theology, or its affiliations. But what’s going on at this little-known Christian camp is much bigger than the camp itself.

Nestled in the pine-strewn hills of Bailey, Colorado, Camp IdRaHaJe was never supposed to be ground zero for a cultural firestorm. Since 1948, it’s been a haven where kids roast marshmallows, sing hymns, and supposedly hear the gospel under starry skies.

But now, courtesy of Colorado’s bureaucratic brain trust, it’s been yanked into the limelight—not for anything scandalous, but because it dares to believe that boys are boys and girls are girls.

Shocking, I know.

The state, drunk on the kool-aid of its own ideological purity, has now decreed that all youth camps must allow campers to use bathrooms, showers, and sleeping facilities based on their self-declared gender identity. Translation: boys are free to waltz into the girls’ showers, restrooms, and sleeping bunks. Never mind reality.

Never mind common sense. And don’t even bring in Scripture. Reality must now bow to the alleged “feelings” of children who are coached into delusion by activist adults.

Camp IdRaHaJe pushed back. They filed a lawsuit. They pleaded for a religious exemption. But Colorado’s answer was a resounding no. Why? Because the LGBTQ movement doesn’t negotiate—it conquers. It doesn’t respect religious freedom—it steamrolls it. It doesn’t want compromise—it demands capitulation. This is moral, sexual, ideological colonization—beginning with your children.

The state insists this policy is about safety. Whose safety, exactly? The twelve-year-old girl who now has to shower next to a hypersexualized teen boy with raging hormones, an underdeveloped frontal cortex, and no concept of boundaries? Or the adult staff trying to enforce order while walking a legal tightrope soaked in kerosene?

Or is it about the safety of the state’s own reputation among coastal elites, desperate to prove they’re keeping up with California’s ever-evolving definition of “progress”?

Let’s drop the act. This isn’t about compassion, it’s about control. It’s about forcing God-fearing institutions to kiss the ring of the new sexual priesthood or be cast out into outer darkness—where there is weeping, gnashing of teeth, and apparently, government fines. And worst of all, it’s about the normalization of the sexualization of children—because the activists who pushed this legislation through want it that way.

If you think this is just a Colorado quirk, you haven’t been paying attention. This is the beta test. The pilot program. The opening act of a national rollout designed to spread like an ideological wildfire across all fifty states and beyond, igniting every school, camp, church, and home until nothing orthodox remains but smoldering ashes.

The language used by the state is as Orwellian as it is slippery. “Gender-affirming access,” they call it. But whose gender are we affirming? Certainly not the little girl who just wanted to spend her summer learning about Jesus without having to navigate a locker room policy crafted by people who think biology is a social construct. We’re affirming the feelings of boys who reject their own design and punishing everyone else for not applauding loudly enough.

The LGBTQ movement, backed by their leftist enablers, has long abandoned the illusion of tolerance. It now operates like a predator in daylight, no longer creeping through the underbrush but proudly parading down Main Street, demanding the keys to every building. Camp IdRaHaJe said no. And for that, they are the villain.

But ask yourself why it is always the children. Why is every hill they choose to die on paved with rainbow flags and playground mulch? Why are Christian camps, not corporate retreats, the target of these bathroom battles? Why are prepubescent girls now the frontline casualties in a war they never enlisted to fight? The answer is simple. The soul of the nation is too abstract a conquest. But the minds of children? That’s fertile ground.

This isn’t legal policy, it’s propaganda, dressed up in bureaucratic drag. It’s the reeducation of the innocent under the guise of anti-discrimination. And it’s not enough that you tolerate it—they demand your compliance, your affirmation, your celebration.

This camp is just the latest to stand in the crosshairs, but they won’t be the last. Because just like the rogue hyenas in the wild stomping out their competition, when the rainbow brigade and their political allies decide to march, they don’t aim for the adults—they go straight for the nursery.

That’s where revolutions are won.

Welcome to the brave new world, where saying boys can’t be girls will cost you your license, your livelihood, your liberty, and maybe even your life. But hey—at least the bathrooms are “inclusive.”
