Let’s just require that all kids take courses in S&M, beastiality, cross-dressing, and fetishes and be done with it.
Did I miss something or did this article leave out the most important part of the ruling?
IT IS NOT REQUIRED THAT THE SCHOOL NOTIFY THE PARENTS THAT THIS INFORMATION WILL BE TAUGHT IN ORDER TO ALLOW THEM TO OPT OUT.
However, don't even THINK about talking about God.
I’ll bet the judge’s hard-drive has something interesting stuff on it.
Just so long as we keep the 10 Commandments and the idea of a Creator out of the schools, everything will be fine. (sarcasm off)
A widely attended session of “rimming” was held in the judge’s quarters after the ruling. /sarcasm
We don’t even teach this garbage in Socialist Sweden. Sure, they’ll have some embarrased home-ec teacher showing us how to put on a condom when we’re in 11th or 12th grade (accompanied by much snickering and giggling) along with a “this is how babies are made” lecture by a stuttering biology teacher.
Of course, there is the obvious “there is nothing wrong with beeing homosexual” teaching which I think most people have no problem agreeing to, but it’s not as intrusive and “preaching” (for lack of better word) that I get the impression it is in US public schools. For an observer, it seems that public schools in the US tries to recruit kids to become gays, rather than trying to teach kids to be tolerant and understanding towards eachother.
And the courts' expertise in this area is ...???
We're all in the Twilight Zone now.
Is this judge nuts or what? Why don’t the parents just yank their kids out and yank him off the bench.
>That sexual orientation is innate, namely, homosexuals are born that way, is a theory that has been rejected by courts in several states including Maryland. Marylands highest appellate court issued an opinion in a 2007 civil union case, holding that the proposition that homosexuality is innate is not supported by credible evidence
That statement is not accurate. The court found that the theory of an immutable characteristic is not generally accepted:
* In the absence of some generally accepted scientific conclusion identifying homosexuality as an immutable characteristic
* We note only that there does not appear to be a consensus yet among experts as to the origin of an individual’s sexual orientation.
So right now, it’s a theory.
The controversial new curriculum was adopted as a result of pressure by homosexual advocacy groups.
What if it was discovered to be an inborn characteristic?
What if it could be tested for before birth? Would it necessarily be celebrated by parents, with relatives buying little pink outfits for the new gay baby? Or would it be treated like people treat Down's syndrome (a truly inborn characteristic), where they have the legal option to abort and try again?
Imagine how quickly the homosexual lobby would switch to pro-life if abortion was seen as an option to ensure heterosexual children. Or would they become like feminists who are pro-abortion except when dealing with sex selection abortion - it is a woman's choice what happens to her body except when that choice is to choose only a boy.
Perhaps it would be something like spina bifida - treatable after birth, and perhaps preventable before birth through the use of vitamins and proper nutrition.
The homosexual lobby dances a fine line between inborn characteristic and lifestyle choice. If either one is found to be absolutely true, then treatment options becomes the next discussion point - one they don't want available.

Apparently, this is not this judge’s first adventure in the brave new world of dumping moral traditions, as in this case where he made sure that Tommy has two daddies:
Karl Hedberg got custody of his son in 2002 in a divorce in Alexandria, Virginia. But the judge conditioned it on his same sex partner moving out.
The couple sold their house in Virginia and moved to separate apartments in Maryland, a state that is considered to be more gay friendly than the Commonwealth of Virginia.
In 2004 Virginia was no longer the state with continuing exclusive jurisdiction because both parents and the child no longer lived there. Hedberg petitioned the Maryland Court to modify his Virginia custody order because of changed circumstances. The judge denied his request. But the Maryland Court of Special Appeals overturned that decision.
Hedberg was able to present evidence that a one parent home was not in the best interests of his son, now 12 years old, and Judge William J. Rowan III of the Montgomery County Circuit Court agreed. On Monday, he removed the ban from the custody order.
I'm typing this with a blush, but I didn't know people used condoms during oral sex. I guess I'm old fashioned.
The judge is mentally ill - with Liberalism.
As to the nature of Homosexuality, I think in some cases in is inborn and in other cases it is societal or cultural.
