Family groups and state lawmakers say "gay-straight" student clubs in the region some even are operating at middle schools promote homosexuality and encourage teens to be sexually active. Students in Virginia, Maryland and the District have formed dozens of such school clubs in an attempt to foster tolerance. The formation of these cl

You should be proud. It really takes guts! I'm astounded to hear that this is going on in religious schools. I guess they're starting to become more like the sell out "religious" colleges.
2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered." They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved.
2358 The number of men and women who have deep-seated homosexual tendencies is not negligible. This inclination, which is objectively disordered, constitutes for most of them a trial. They must be accepted with respect, compassion and sensitivity. Every sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided. These persons are called to fulfill God's will in their lives and, if they are Christians, to unite to the sacrifice of the Lord's Cross the difficulties they may encounter from their condition.
2359 Homosexual persons are called to chastity. By the virtues of self-mastery that teach them inner freedom, at times by the support of disinterested friendship, by prayer and sacramental grace, they can and should gradually and resolutely approach Christian perfection.

Yes, they are disordered; yes, they deserve to be treated with respect; and yes, they are sinners.
No.
Maybe some good trial lawyers that wouldn't mind being incredibly non-PC can smell some money here from suing the district on behalf any teenagers that get AIDS.

P.S. Only half-kidding here. Sexually-caused disease is probably one of the largest preventable health problems in the country.
That's interesting. Has that always been in there?
What's there to understand?What a stupid comment!
Good for your daughter! I would be proud too!
Yes, although the wording was tweaked a bit when the final editio typica of the Catechism came out.
Thank you. This is the point that continually gets lost in all the noise.
I sure hopw none of these schools allow religious groups/activities.
I don't run the ping list anymore - little jeremiah has completely taken over the ping list. Now I can spend more time collecting and categorizing articles for the categorical index.
I am sure some lawyer will figure out that the legal age of consent for sexual acts exceeds the age of the students being classified by the state as having a sexual preference. Oh, btw, if it is sexual 'preference' then how could it possibly be innate?
GLSEN officials said there are at least 40 gay-straight clubs at schools in Virginia, 54 in Maryland and two in the District....
GLSEN has 2,500 gay-straight clubs registered with its organization, and Miss Byard estimates there are probably many more...
GSA's are the creation of Kevin Jennings' organization, GLSEN.

It is definitely high time for parents and other concerned members of the community to fight the leftist agendas pushed in schools, especially "gay" indoctrination!
Let me and ItsOurTimeNow if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.
