Pro-Homosexual Booklet to Be Distributed to All 16,000 US School Districts
LifeSiteNews ^ | 2/21/08 | Hillary White

Posted on 02/21/2008 4:32:13 PM PST by wagglebee

US, February 21, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - At the same time that news has come out that the Toronto Catholic School board has refused to participate in pro-homosexual activities, homosexual activists are making significant inroads in US schools, as a booklet titled, "Just the Facts about Sexual Orientation and Youth," is set to be distributed to all 16,000 school districts in the country.

The 24-page booklet by the National Education Association and American Psychological Association, tells students that homosexuality is a "normal expression of human sexuality".

"What's so scary and dogmatic about this report is that it communicates that religious-based viewpoints are harmful, and even dangerous," said Candi Cushman, education analyst for Focus on the Family Action.

The booklet particularly targets the idea that homosexuality is a condition that can be changed. It instructs educators, "Schools should be careful to avoid discussions of transformational ministry in their curriculum."

Brian Raum, senior legal counsel for the Alliance Defense Fund, said that the talk of "inclusivity" in schools by homosexual groups is a veiled threat.

"What they're trying to do is create a fear factor here," he said. "There's nothing in the Constitution that would prohibit a teacher from presenting to a student all of the programs that are available, without endorsing or promoting any particular one."

The National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality, (NARTH) says that although "the aim of gay-affirmative counselling programs is humanitarian", the problem is that they do "much more" than discouraging scapegoating.

"In reality, they promote a particular worldview," present students with a set of "truth-claims that students are expected to adopt," and insist on conformity to these.

"These programs promote the value systems of a particular social group and denigrate the views of another, while at the same time, distorting science."

this leads to these perverts getting access to children

High-risk sex offender released into Toronto

toronto.ctv.ca

Toronto police are warning the public after a high-risk sex offender convicted of crimes against children was released from prison on Thursday morning.

Investigators won’t say what Toronto neighbourhood 30-year-old Junior Spencer will be living in, but say police will monitor his movements closely.

Spencer was imprisoned for sexually assaulting boys between the ages of 8 and 14 between 1995 and 2005.

The Correctional Service of Canada has labelled him a high-risk to re-offend.

Police have released a current photo and two past pictures that show Spencer’s ability to change his appearance.

“If they’re an offender and they do not have access to support, people who change their appearance can gain access to children and they can make themselves look different from what they do in any photograph,” Det. Sgt. Gord Whealy, of the Sex Crimes Unit, told CTV Toronto.

“Typically, Spencer participates in grooming behaviour with the victims and their families, then exploits his position of trust to get access to the children,” states a police press release.

“He has also volunteered with agencies dealing with children, again allowing him access to children.”

Spencer is subject to a 10-year supervision order, which allows corrections officers and police to closely monitor his behaviour.

On the way home this afternoon I heard an interesting announcement. The announcement mentioned something about a news segment on ABC, NBC or... and the topic is a study on ex-gays that surprised psychologists.

My guess is the report tells the truth that gays can become ex-gays and some of the more narrow-minded psychologists are surprised. Perhaps they should catch up with the times as the number of ex-gays has been growing for decades.

As my brother (who is no real conservative) says, “Since they can’t reproduce, they have to recruit.” And that was a good 20 years ago.

There’s nothing new under the sun.

Talk about shoving an agenda down people’s throats.

“And the beat goes on...”

The marching you hear is the steps of those who want your children to be converted, and baptized into the religion of human secularism.

Save your children now. Get them out.

Nice list of the usual suspects.

The only answer to what the public schools have become is private schooling. Then raise hell to get credits for any and all taxes paid for public schools. Finally, get rid of the Department of Education (DOpE)...

Not a bad idea - plus it will be interesting to find out IF it is given to teachers will my district distribute it to us. I teach and live in a very conservative area, so this could be something to watch.

If I get it, or hear of it, I'll let you know.

From now on every morning school children will recite the Pledge with a slight variation:

“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the Totalitarian States of America....”

The 24-page booklet by the National Education Association and American Psychological Association, tells students that homosexuality is a "normal expression of human sexuality".

Normal?
All anyone has to do is look at the male-female anatomy to see that homosexuality is a deviation and violation of the natural biological design of human sexuality.

As is to be expected, most of the homosexual agenda is about gaining access to other people's children.

Look at that list. All the social indoctrinators -- teachers, psychologists, social workers -- all of them approving of, and signing off on the propoganda pamphlet that will be distributed to YOUR children.

When are you people going to take your children OUT of the public schools?!!

Yes, but then I couldn’t have play off of the TV show “Car 54 where are you?”

AND you’re making me feel old, given that it came out when I was in High School.
