Milwaukee to Open Nation's First Homosexual Middle School

By Kathleen Gilbert

MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin, January 8, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Milwaukee's Alliance School, one of the few officially "gay-friendly"  high schools in the country, has been given clearance to extend their pro-homosexual curriculum to sixth, seventh, and eighth graders.

The proposal went through easily last month, with the city's board of education unanimously approving it by default, as it was not pulled for further discussion or a vote.  Tina Owen, Lead Teacher of Alliance, said they would be accepting applications from middle-school-age children for the 2009-10 school year immediately.

Marty Lexmond, the director of school innovation for Milwaukee Public Schools, told U.S. News and World Report that such an institution was needed to help adolescents, who are now increasingly publicly identifying their sexual orientation as early as middle school.

Laurie Higgins of the Illinois Family Institute was dismayed that the motion went through with no discernable opposition.

"I'm stunned that the religious leaders, the Christian pastors in Milwaukee, did not rise up in righteous indignation against this school," lamented Higgins. "That is what I find perhaps equally [as] troubling, if not more so."

"I think it's unconscionable to be affirming this in public schools," said Higgins. "This is not an issue for public schools. And kids at 11- and 12- and 13- and 14-[years of age] are confused on many issues - sexuality [being] one of them."
 
Regina Griggs, executive director of the group Parents and Friends of Ex-Gays and Gays (PFOX), agreed.

"To affirm an 11-year-old? Please," said Griggs. "They haven't even gone through puberty, but they know that they want to have sex with other men and women? I'm sorry, but it's ridiculous."

The original Alliance high school opened four years ago, also with little opposition. Other similar plans across the country, however, have not had it as easy as the Milwaukee school.

In Chicago, plans for a "gay-friendly" high school were recently delayed due to concerns from both sides of the debate, as some feared that the plans amounted to segregating homosexuals.  And when Manhattan's Harvey Milk High School opened in 2003, named for an openly homosexual politician of the 1970s, students met with protesters outside the school's doors.

ARNE DUNCAN AND THE “GAY HIGH SCHOOL”

Does one have to prove they qualify for admittance?

[DoingTheFrenchMistake]

I can’t imagine how this won’t be challenged in the courts, separate is never been proven to be equal.

Perhaps it’s time to formally organize a boycott of Public Schools. I used to think what Boortz and others said about the parents of children sent to public school, that they were engaged in direct abuse, was extreme. Having examined the question from several angles, now, I see that I was wrong.

[weegee]

Chicago already has this for high school.

There is probably a "test".

As if a school that promotes and teaches the benefits of sodomy has anything to do with “social justice”. I'm sure they will leave out the physical, moral and spiritual peril of the homosexual lifestyle which proves they could really care less about these kids.

[weegee]

Bet they don’t advocate abstinence either. The Sex Positive agenda opposes abstinence, not because “it doesn’t work” (no matter what they may say), but rather because they believe it to be “unhealthy” (it supresses sexual desires and they see sex as a birthright that should be enjoyed at every age).

The Sex Positive agenda isn’t about advocating for acceptance of homosexuality as a “natural” variation, they don’t care what causes the impulse (culture or genetics), ultimately they proclaim their goal to be an end to ALL moral judgements over sexual pairings (regardless of sex, age, relation, marital status, number, or species of partner(s)).

Telling the masses is it “genetic” (or has been reconsidered by “some” psychiatrists) is just to get you to go along.

Recall that less than a decade ago when Lawrence v. Texas was “settled” by the activist Court, we were told this was about consenting ADULTS in PRIVATE. This is pre-teen CHILDREN in PUBLIC school.

Socialist lie. Always.

[Teflonic]

This is truly evil! Virgin kids brainwashed into thinking they are gay and now the state government endorsing the practice.

[444Flyer]

My gosh Weegee, it is beyond my ability to comprehend the vileness of the agenda of these people in regards to children. It is too perverted to imagine.

[redstateconfidential]

We only “tolerate “ voter fraud in a select few inner city “Special” zones, so we have a better handle on Democrat Election Theft Games down here.I’m just chucking pebbles in the Cesspool while standing in a mushy area anyway.

[Welcome2thejungle]

I would have thought a city like San Francisco or Los Angeles or West Hollyweird would have been the firt to do this.

[CAPTAINSUPERMARVELMAN]

This school has been open for over a year already.

[bvw]

This is child abuse.

[Prospero]

It is too perverted to imagine.

The end game here is to marginalize all Tolerance, which originally had a meaning more toward license, the allowance of a thing, but not its embracing. By pushing such issues further anyone not embracing this thing is, by the post-modern definition, "intolerant."

The goal of Obama's Party is not just to win but to create a majority. The only flaw in their strategy is that Socialism simply does not work. It must, eventually, fail, as will any Ponzi Scheme must eventually fail.

And it is precisely that, "Child Abuse" that lays seed to a future rebound. The children of this experimentalism will one day destroy their abusers or lay waste to their own progeny. There is no middle, no "Third Way."

The sex-positive movement does not in general make moral or ethical distinctions between heterosexual or homosexual sex, or indeed masturbation for people who are otherwise celibate, regarding these choices as matters of personal preference. Some sex-positive positions include acceptance of BDSM, asexuality, polyamory, transsexuality, transgenderism, and other forms of gender transgression in general.

Most elements of the sex-positive movement advocate comprehensive and accurate sex education as part of its campaign.

One definition of sex-positivity, from:

Sex-positive, a term that’s coming into cultural awareness, isn’t a dippy love-child celebration of orgone – it’s a simple yet radical affirmation that we each grow our own passions on a different medium, that instead of having two or three or even half a dozen sexual orientations, we should be thinking in terms of millions. “Sex-positive” respects each of our unique sexual profiles, even as we acknowledge that some of us have been damaged by a culture that tries to eradicate sexual difference and possibility.[1]

Some advocates of sex-positivity define their philosophy in contrast to sex-negativity, which they identify as the dominant view of sex in Western culture. According to these advocates, traditional Christian views of human sexuality define traditional Western values in relation to this subject. Thus, such proponents of sex-positivity claim that under the Western, Christian tradition, sex is seen as a destructive force except when it is redeemed by the saving grace of procreation, and sexual pleasure is seen as sinful. Sexual acts are ranked hierarchically, with marital heterosexuality at the top of the hierarchy and masturbation, homosexuality, and other sexualities that deviate from societal norms closer to the bottom.[2] Medicine and psychiatry are said to have also contributed to sex-negativity, as they may, from time to time, designate some forms of sexuality that appear on the bottom of this hierarchy as being pathological (see Mental illness).[2] However, Western societies which predate Christian influence, such as ancient Greece, have often endorsed forms of sexuality that strongly conflict with Christian beliefs.
