'Normalize' homosexual practice in school curriculum?
LifeSite via Catholic Online ^ | 2/22/2008 | Hillary White

Posted on 02/22/2008 4:13:23 AM PST by markomalley

The National Education Association and American Psychological Association tell students that homosexuality is "normal".

TORONTO (LifeSiteNews) - 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."

I swear I would not even care one way or the other if it wasn’t constantly forced upon me. I’m tired of being told what I have to accept, and that my views are immaterial to the discussion.

NORMAL; huh?!
 



 

 

Genesis 13:13       Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.

Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and
their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."

Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed,
all the men from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight?
Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends.
Don't do this wicked thing.

 

Psalms 12:8      The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

Ain't this just FABULOUS??      More?

 

Isaiah 3:9   The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.

2 Peter 2:13b  Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.


 

 

Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.



2 Peter 2

 1.  But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
 2.  Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
 3.  In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
 4.  For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell,  putting them into gloomy dungeons  to be held for judgment;
 5.  if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
 6.  if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
 7.  and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
 8.  (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
 9.  if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
 10.  This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature  and despise authority.   Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
 11.  yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
 12.  But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
 13.  They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done.
Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.



 

But there IS hope!!!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

 9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
     Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

 


If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape.....

"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.

Education is **never** religiously neutral! No matter how hard school administrators try, the religious worldview of one group will be established, and those of other groups will be actively and sometimes even maliciously destroyed!

When are the sheeple finally going to wake up? When are they finally going to realize this? When they send their child to the government school, their child will be preached and indoctrinated in the government religious worldview.

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

Homosexuality is merely one issue among hundreds ( possibly thousands) in which the school can NOT find neutral ground. The school must make a binary decision. One side wins. The other loses. The winning prize is a big one: The hearts and minds of the next generation of voters!

"Just the Facts about Sexual Orientation and Youth," is set to be distributed to all 16,000 school districts in the country.

In some states, ( Massachusetts and California), the homosexual agenda is now in the process of being fully integrated throughout all grades, all curriculum, and all school policies. Add to this other aspects of the religious worldview of Secular Humanism and Marxism, the children are now swimming in a very toxic cultural; moral, ethical, and values ( religious); and political cesspool.

Parents of children in government schools that are this toxic have only one option: Remove your child. Even in the very worse case scenario, the child would be better off receiving no education whatsoever than being subjected to these morally depraved toxins. I seriously mean this. There is always adult education and community college when the child is sufficiently old enough.

Teachers have only two moral options:

1) Quit!

2) Resist, protest, and **refuse** to cooperate in any manner with homosexual, atheistic Secular Humanist, and Marxist policies and curriculum. Of course this would mean that the teacher would be fired.

It is time we start asking teachers, principals, superintendents, and other government school employees some tough questions:

1) Specifically what are you and your union doing to stop it.

2) Why haven't you been fired yet?

3) If you aren't brave enough to resist and protest, why haven't you quit?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It is a tax to support the government religious temples.

Teachers are the priests and priestesses of the government religion of Secular Humanism, Marxism, and homosexuality is one of their sacraments.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

In my opinion, expect to see more of this. Government schools are in the process of actively recruiting homosexual teachers.

Remember: Homos hire other homos.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

That would be a mere bandaid, my Freeper Friend.

The solution:

1) Get your kid out of the government schools.

2) Organize a MASSIVE school tax revolt in the voting booth.

3) SHUT DOWN these temples of depravity ( mis-named “schools”)! Permanently!

Someone is sure to post, “What about the child who has no other option?”

Answer: It would be better for these children to receive NO education whatsoever than to be subjected to this toxic mix of homosexuality, Secular Humanism, and hate America Marxist philosophy! I really mean that! The is always the option of adult education classes and community college when the child is older.

Check out a text book called “Queering Public Education”. And they have the nerve to say there’s no Gay Agenda.

Answer to the bound-to-be-asked question regarding what about students who have no other option: Online Education

I think this is the wave of the future, assuming that the union oppostion can be overcome. Online education is cheaper (much less administration), and with pre-set curriculum there are fewer opporutnities for the leftist teacher to indoctrinate. It's been working in Wisconsin which is why the liberals are trying to shut it down through the courts. In Wisconsin, students can attend online public schools instead of their local schools. Parents can get students out of the toxic culture without having to develop the curriculum themselves, for those parents who are unable to do so.

This document being distributed to schools regarding homosexuality is extremely disturbing and sad.
