Using the force of government to quiet Christian views is pefectly acceptable in todays twisted logic.

so-called "Bi's

So-called is right! The pathology is same-sex attraction, part-time or full time is irrelevant. A pedophile is still a pedophile regardless of exclusivity; so-called bisexuals that practice perversion are homosexual indeed.

GLSEN, NAMBLA, etc. are all purveyors of pervision and distributors of death via 100% terminal diseases.

Who in their right mind would even consider allowing these folks to infect children with their twisted, sick mind set.

Parents of America and Bill O'Reilly, too, GET SOME SPINE!!"

Actually, it is not the government's place to teach anything.

I... [proposed] three distinct grades of education, reaching all classes. 1. Elementary schools for all children generally, rich and poor. 2. Colleges for a middle degree of instruction, calculated for the common purposes of life and such as should be desirable for all who were in easy circumstances. And 3d. an ultimate grade for teaching the sciences generally and in their highest degree... The expenses of [the elementary] schools should be borne by the inhabitants of the county, every one in proportion to his general tax-rate. This would throw on wealth the education of the poor." --Thomas Jefferson: Autobiography, 1821. ME 1:70

"The public education... we divide into three grades: 1. Primary schools, in which are taught reading, writing, and common arithmetic, to every infant of the State, male and female. 2. Intermediate schools, in which an education is given proper for artificers and the middle vocations of life; in grammar, for example, general history, logarithms, arithmetic, plane trigonometry, mensuration, the use of the globes, navigation, the mechanical principles, the elements of natural philosophy, and, as a preparation for the University, the Greek and Latin languages. 3. An University, in which these and all other useful sciences shall be taught in their highest degree; the expenses of these institutions are defrayed partly by the public, and partly by the individuals profiting of them." --Thomas Jefferson to A. Coray, 1823. ME 15:487

"My bill proposes, 1. Elementary schools in every county, which shall place every householder within three miles of a school. 2. District colleges, which shall place every father within a day's ride of a college where he may dispose of his son. 3. An university in a healthy and central situation... To all of which is added a selection from the elementary schools of subjects of the most promising genius, whose parents are too poor to give them further education, to be carried at the public expense through the colleges and university." --Thomas Jefferson to M. Correa de Serra, 1817. ME 15:155

Cordially

...wait a minute, is the 'gayness' gene from the mother or fathers side? But, if it's from Dear Old Dad - how did Dad get it up for Dear Old Mom to have a 'GAY' baby in the first place. Gays should have died out thousands of years ago, shouldn't they?

Nevermind, it's all too complex for me....hmmmm....

Hey, mister administrater, this is pure advertising. Lose it.

I use to be an O'Reilly fan, but then I realized that he isn't a journalist. His main job is promoting O'Reilly. He's a populist. Whatever side of an issue will get him the most rating points or book sales that's the side he's on. During the last conventions he found that he had to modify his opinions to get movers and shackers on his show. And that what he's about. He's a "factorcrat."

How about the Michigan Wolverines, they're from Ann Arbor and they are pretty conservative and traditional too, don't you think? Keep the ball on the ground, winged helmets, more wins than any other team in the history of football, and that sort of thing!

At the very least, Male homosexuality borders on the barbaric.

What he'll say is that it was ok to require the little girl to attend, but he'll add that she should have been able to speak her piece too.

So? Her class then hears both viewpoints; pro-hetero vs. pro-barbaric...

Well, I'd normally not object BUT the school brought in a sampling of religious groups to show what they taught on the subject. They managed to find religious spokespersons that ONLY ACCEPTED HOMOSEXUALITY.

Do you have any idea how hard it is to accidentally come up with that result?

Conclusion. It wasn't an accident that they came up with that result. They were INTENTIONALLY foisting a minor, rare religious viewpoint upon public school children.

Violation of integrity; probably a violation of law.

So you're saying that these religious groups would accept only homosexuality, and not even heterosexuality? Where would you find such people? Major media newsrooms?

Sorry-I guess I don't know what A2 means. She is a middle school teacher in Colorado.

The only rights homosexuals have is to repent or not go to heaven.

Christians No Longer Gay Living For God http://cnlglfg.com
