Primary School Teachers 'Could Face Sack' For Refusing To Promote Gay Marriage

By John Bingham 18 Nov 2012 Liz Truss, an education minister, refused to rule out the possibility that teachers, even in faith schools, could face disciplinary action for objecting on grounds of conscience.

Miss Truss said simply that it was impossible to know what the impact of the legislation would be at this stage.

Her admission came in a letter to a fellow Conservative MP, David Burrowes, last month.

Mr Burrowes, a practising Christian, originally wrote to Maria Miller, the equalities minister, raising concerns about the impact on schools of the Coalition’s plans to change the marriage laws.

It followed the publication of a legal opinion by Aidan O’Neill QC, a barrister in the same London chambers as Cherie Blair, commissioned by the Coalition for Marriage, which campaigns against same-sex unions.

Mr O’Neill, an expert on human rights, was asked to advise on the impact redefining marriage to include same-sex couples could have on schools, churches, hospitals, foster carers and public buildings. Among his conclusions was that schools could be within their statutory rights to dismiss staff who wilfully fail to use stories or textbooks promoting same-sex weddings.

Parents who object to gay marriage being taught to their children would also have no right to withdraw their child from lessons, he argued. And, in theory, the fact that a school was a faith school would make no difference, he added.

So they are mandated to pressure kids to accept homosexuality as normal...

[Venturer]

I will never understand how queers attained the power they now hold.

These sick ,mentally ill,perverts have taken away morality and replaced it with sick sex acts. They have displaced right with evil.

Why are heterosexuals putting up with this crap?

Now they want to adopt so they can raise new Homo’s.

[GeronL]

raise new homo’s...

isn’t that what schools and media is for?

[hout8475]

My question is: Does “faith schools” include Muslim schools as well? That would be interesting to see.

[alloysteel]

If ‘faith’ schools are required to also make this part of the curriculum, does this apply to Islamic Madrassah schools as well?

After all, we must be even-handed in how these things are applied. If the Islamic imams do not like it, they may have to disband the school, or return all their children to their country of origin for basic religious and/or academic instruction.

Americans had better not take the right to homeschool their own children for granted, bcause we have the proof right before our eyes, of governments in “civilised” European countries taking that right away from parents.

Through history homo's have gained power~~but at some point they get thrown back into the so called closet.
Why is that? Maybe they push too far? Demand to lower the age of consent to come after the kids?
At some point they will go too far~

And still parents refuse to take the steps necessary to pull their kids out of the indoctrination centers (calling them schools is a misnomer) and teaching them correctly.

Plus, the feckless ‘leaders’ in Congress refuse to do their JOBS and put a stop to the BS; let alone order a complete dismantle to the whole Unconstitutional department.

I put the parents in the same camp as those that pay someone else to raise their children while they toil at a job now making 1/2 of what they did (cost of daycare) and wonder why their children grow up this way.

Days like this I’m glad I don’t have kids...

[squarebarb]

they have the power of the media. they almost own it. It is like owning a planet. It is the most incredible brainwashing tool in human history.

Politicians go along with them because they want to be on television as ‘good’ politicias. the media literally decides who will be elected and who not.

[langleyaction]

Here is one possible reason: “In the latter days, some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of demons”. I would think that, as an extrapolation, one could say that you don’t have to have first been one of the faith to listen to doctrines of demons.

Another thought: “Evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse”

Satan is active in this world, orchestrating the powers of darkness.

[Armaggedon]

It’s a madhouse!

[Cowboy Bob]

Who will make the decision to sack anybody who refuses? It seems that everyone is saying “I don’t agree, but its the law.” Who proposed the law, and who will enforce it if the people reject it.

[G Larry]

“...they are mandated to pressure kids to accept homosexuality as normal...”

It’s much worse than that.

The perverts are grooming the kids to become willing victims.

70% of “gays” were molested as children.

This is a recruiting campaign, not just a demand for acceptance.

I think Pink Floyd was on to something.....

Okay, in the real world (I am a public school teacher) they can tell you that you are going to do this or that, but they rarely actually CHECK and see that you are doing this or that. An Administrator from the District may pop in a couple times a year with a clipboard, but be aware, these are people with a very short attention span and a massive sense of self-importance, so sitting quietly and observing is actually anathema to their restless little minds. They sit in your classroom for 10-15 minutes and then leave. Later your principal gets an email asking why your standards or objectives weren't written on the board, or if you've considered doing more groupwork. You tell the principal you'll be sure to put those standards up, and of course they do groupwork, they just weren't on that day. End of discussion.

In other words, they don't know if you comply unless you loudly announce that you will not comply. If they told me tomorrow that I had to teach using a short story on a wonderfully happy gay couple, depending on my view of the story, I could take it, nod gratefully, and ask if they have any quizzes or vocabulary lesson plans to go with it... and then stack it neatly in a cabinet, never to be seen again. Or I could use it and we'll use it as an opportunity to talk about propaganda and bias... or I could use it as they'd like me to, but as a teacher you have a lot of leeway. You just have to be tactful and discreet.

Muslims seem to be exempt from everything

[G Larry]

The plumbing doesn’t work, thus it is a perversion.

Do you deny my assertion that 70% of gays were molested as children?

“gay love” bull!

The rate of anonymous gay sex and child rape certainly puts the lie to that meme.

[Psalm 144]

I will never understand how queers attained the power they now hold.

Why are heterosexuals putting up with this crap?

************************************

Homosexuals are the ultimate insiders’ club; exclusive, fraternal, covert and bound by mutual self interest. Thus they can and do assist each other to positions of power, profit and prestige and these are the coin of influence. Along the way, they are among the most social of men, thus they circulate and circulation yields the opportunities to cherry pick protoges, identify weaknesses, and to compromise people via honey traps and seductions along myriad lines of weakness.

Subvert, possess, manipulate.

Have you not noticed how the Republicans only became completely ineffective after ‘Filegate’? Similar procedures enable an influence that goes far beyond apparent numbers.
