Sex-Ed Pilot Is Endorsed By Grasmick

Maryland Superintendent Nancy S. Grasmick yesterday denied a request from three citizen groups to halt field tests of new sex-education lessons about sexual orientation in six Montgomery County schools and said she was convinced of "the value of going forward" with the pilot program.

With Grasmick's endorsement, there is nothing to stop the field tests from proceeding. Opponents of the new curriculum, approved in January by the county Board of Education, say they look forward to the decision of the Maryland State Board of Education on whether the curriculum should be overturned.

[...]

That the field tests are happening -- the first began Tuesday at Argyle Middle School in Silver Spring -- represents a symbolic victory for the county school board. An earlier version of the curriculum, approved by the school board, was halted by a federal judge in spring 2005, days before field tests were to begin.

Critics of the 2005 curriculum oppose the rewritten lessons, too. In a petition filed last month with the state Department of Education, the groups allege the lessons compromise and injure the "sincere religious moral beliefs regarding homosexual conduct" held by some Montgomery families, whose faith dictates that homosexuality is a sin.

[...]

Brian Edwards, spokesman for the county school system, said [...] the pilot program has yielded early evidence that the new lessons are acceptable to most parents. A series of informational meetings drew no more than 12 parents at any school, he said.

The lie of Lawrence v. Texas being only about "consenting adults in private" has been revealed. This is indoctrinating minors in public school.

Thank you activist courts.

This is indoctrinating minors in public school.

This is far and above the number one purpose of public schools.

Public Schools are the indoctrination tool of the far left. This is the reason why Biblical Christianity and morality are being replaced by skepticism and filth.

But just keep sending children to public schools and keep throwing money at public schools to fund the destruction of American law and culture.

The public school, university, law schools, news media, filthy hollywood and the "Orcah Winfrey's" all work together to destroy the Bible underpinnings of morality and law.

But just keep sending children to public schools and keep throwing money at public schools to fund the destruction of American law and culture.

The public schools are not the cause (they are one of the targets/tools). The cause is a movement/network of militant activists waging secular anti-moral jihad helped by the hedonistic yearnings spread among the public.

They want to subvert all values in the hope of creating a Rousseauistic antinomian utopia without God, heaven/hell or borders.

If you give up on public schools, they will go after you wherever you hide (in private, in home, in the church) once they solidify their hold there.

Read Saul Alinsky, read Gramsci, read various radicals manuals and you will understand. Or spare some time and observe their meetings (with your mouth shut).
