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."

Great to see the NEA and APA are starting to recruit newer, younger homosexuals now. I guess they’re getting tired of each other. This “new direction” crap has turned this joint into one sick country.
Did anyone ever consider that its in the APA’s best interest for people to become unhinged? I bet homosexuals are much more likely than heteros to require a shrink’s services.
I just happened to see it come up.

“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.”
Who the F do the public schools think they are, expecting students to adopt and conform to something that they might find repugnant or against their religious principles? Do public school students even think twice about conforming to the garbage that spews from the mouths of these so-called “educators?”
All to groom the next crop of possible initiates.
Bill Ayers and friends have taken over the education system. That was there plan and we let them do it. We should have stormed D.C. in protest. I’m afraid it may be too late. I’m glad I’m not a kid who will have to grow up in this crap.
That does it! Between the gay agenda and Planned Parenthood’s quest to make sure that teenagers have sex and abort as often as possible, we have a concerted effort to lead this generation of kids into immoral, confused lives. Public schools are not safe for kids.
Big deal. I live in Hollywood. Every class is indoctrinated with this crap.
I watched the Fountainhead on youtube today...Here’s Ellsworth Toohey celebrating his victory:
“So you were after power, Mr. Wynand -— and you thought you were a practical man. You left to impractical intellectuals like me the whole field of ideas to corrupt as we please while you were busy making money. You thought money was power. Is it, Mr. Wynand? You poor amateur!”
This is the leftist approach to public education. We let them handle it, and now we are beginning to reap the consequences. 0bama voters, moral equivalence, and the suppression of Christian culture.
Where do your kids go to school?
"Welcome to the World State, where all men are physico-chemically equal and everybodys happy now. People are conditioned by genetic engineering, electric shocks, and hypnopaedic repetition to accept these and other mantras as the sum of their identities, to promote complacency and simple desires. Sexually, people are uniformly promiscuouseveryone belongs to everyone elseavoiding those neuroses rooted in repression or exclusive attachments. Erotic experimentation begins at six or eight years old. Economically, the society has subscribed so thoroughly to mass consumerism that the consumers themselves have been commodified. Taught to acquire an infinity of gimcrack objects, as one early reviewer said, they spend their labor mindlessly producing the things that in their leisure they mindlessly consume. And, as one character explains, if ever by some unlucky chance such a crevice of time should yawn in the solid substance of their distractions, there is always soma, delicious soma, half a gramme for a half-holiday, a gramme for a week-end, two grammes for a trip to the gorgeous East, three for a dark eternity on the moon. A dream drug without side effects, soma assuages every hurt or unmet need, from boredom to impotence to insecurity to chagrin, and all other miseries of space and time.... Aldous Huxley, Brave new World.
Yet these are the same people who see no problems the idea of a person going under the surgeon's knife so that their gender can be physically 'changed'.
what dumbasses!
