"that many libertarians are emphatically opposed to the active promotion of homosexuality by the government and by government schools."

I don't know that the schools are "actively promoting homosexuality", so I don't know what they're opposing.

I do know that some schools are treating homosexuality as a lifestyle no different than heterosexuals, and that they should have the same considerations. Where do "many libertarians" stand on that?

That government-run schools will always have this kind of problem, so long as the nation is made up of people with extremely diverse views on the subject.

You get what you pay for. If you don't like the cirriculum that public schools offer, then pull your kids out. As I don't have kids in the system, my only involvement is being taxed to pay for it.

What really galls me are the Christians who want the Ten Commandments back into the public schools. If they want to be consistent about the issue, they'll make it the *Nine* Commandments, leaving out "Thou shall not steal." After all, they have no qualms about looting my paycheck to pay for their kids' education. And THEN they expect me to actually CARE about things like this, crappy results, etc.?!?!
