Acceptance and Promotion of Homosexuality
School kids are being taught to accept perversion as normal behavior. This is
the inevitable result of liberal "envelope pushers" having control of the sex education
curriculum.
Dartmouth: Dorm
Assignments Will Not be 'Limited by Traditional Gender Binary'. Dartmouth College is expanding its "gender neutral" housing
program, opening up more rooms where "students of any gender can cohabitate," the school newspaper, The Dartmouth, reported last week.
The Ivy League school's website says Dartmouth "seeks to provide a living environment welcoming to all gender identities; one not
limited by the traditional gender binary."
Anti-Bully Advocate Dan Savage
Bullies High School Kids With Profane Bible Rant. As many as 100 high school students walked out of a national
journalism conference after an anti-bullying speaker began cursing, attacked the Bible and reportedly called those who refused
to listen to his rant "pansy a····." The speaker was Dan Savage, founder of the "It Gets Better"
project, an anti-bullying campaign that has reached more than 40 million viewers with contributors ranging from President
Obama to Hollywood stars. Savage also writes a sex advice column called "Savage Love."
'Gender
Bender Day' leads to 'Social Justice Week'. Yesterday [4/24/2012], EAGnews.org reported on two events held
during "Social Justice Week" at Chicago Public Schools' Jones College Prep. One event featured a community organizer
who taught students how to protest, and engaged in inflammatory rhetoric gainst the National Rifle Association.
Christian,
Conservative Groups Counter Pro-Homosexual "Day of Silence". A coalition of conservative, Christian,
and pro-family groups contend that the "Day of Silence" is little more than a tool of radical homosexuals to
engage teens in "gay" advocacy — and to recruit some of the more vulnerable ones into the destructive
lifestyle along the way. One of those groups, Mission America, encouraged parents to keep their kids home
from school on that day.
If your child's school allows 'Day of Silence' propaganda, keep your child at
home April 20. The Day of Silence, which is sponsored by the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN), fast approaches.
This year it will take place in most public schools on April 20. On this day, thousands of public high schools and increasing numbers of middle
schools will allow students to remain silent throughout an entire day — even during instructional time — to promote GLSEN's socio-political
goals and its controversial, unproven, and destructive theories on the nature and morality of homosexuality.
Judge rules school must allow access to sexually explicit
LGBT sites. A federal judge has ordered a Missouri school district to unblock its web filters and give
students access to sexually explicit material by the middle of March. A US District Judge issued a preliminary
junction against the Camdenton R-III School District banning them from using filtering software. The American
Civil Liberties Union filed a lawsuit against the district claiming it was deliberately restricting access to
homosexual themed sites, while allowing students to view what it claims are "anti-LG BT sites that condemn
homosexuality."
Alberta
Law Would Ban Homeschool Parents From Teaching Against Homosexuality. If you want to witness the eventual direction of
"diversity" in America, you may want to take a long look at what is happening in Canada. Under the new Education Act poised for
implementation in Alberta, Christian schools and homeschool parents would be prohibited, as part of their academic program, from
teaching children that homosexuality is sinful.
The Editor says...
Please note: This law does not pertain to the public school curriculum -- it restricts what parents can teach their children
in their own homes.
Superintendent
Bullies Student for Article Opposing Homosexuality. A Wisconsin school superintendent may be
rethinking how he dealt with a student who wrote a school newspaper article condemning homosexuality as sinful.
As part of an assignment for his journalism class, which is responsible for producing the school newspaper, 15-year-old
Shawano High School student Brandon Wegner contributed half of a pro-con editorial feature on adoption by homosexual
couples, using Scripture to buttress his case against same-sex couples adopting children.
Gay
history law on Calif. books, but not in texts. California's first-of-its-kind "gay history" law
went into effect Jan. 1, but so far, state educators don't appear to be on the same page. Given the
state's budget crunch, the state Department of Education has released no companion curriculum or textbook
revisions to comply with the FAIR Education Act, which requires schools to include the contributions of "lesbian,
gay, bisexual and transgender Americans" in instruction programs and curricula at all grade levels. The
law, which evolved from Senate Bill 48, also outlaws instruction materials "reflecting adversely" on those
individuals. The act also adds "persons with disabilities" to the list.
Disgusted
Parents 'Occupy' the Classroom. Some folks in this movement are protesting the left-wing socialist
propaganda that passes in our public school classrooms for history, social studies, economics and literature curricula.
Others are focused on protecting their children's innocence and instilling their moral and religious values by resisting the
so-called comprehensive sexuality agenda and its full-on mandate to normalize homosexuality and transgenderism, regardless
of the religious beliefs of public school students.
Wisconsin School Punishes Christian Kid for Being
a... Christian Kid. Superintendent Todd Carlson of Shawano High School in Shawano, Wisconsin, is sorry a student
observed his First Amendment rights and had his article published in the school newspaper that denounces homosexuals
adopting children. And so Superintendent Carlson is making amends by punishing this Christian kid for being
so ... Christian. Superintendent Carlson has also decided in his infinite wisdom to censure this article by
having it sent down the memory hole so that no one else will be confronted with this evil Christian's views.
State-mandated
"Sexual Brainwashing" Begins in California Schools. Students in California public schools may not be
leading the nation in their knowledge of the "three R's," but they are well on their way to being experts in
deviant lifestyles. Under a law signed last year by Gov. Jerry Brown (D), all public schools in the state
are now required to promote homosexuality, bisexuality, transsexuality, and same-sex "marriage" at every grade level,
including kindergarten — and to do so without parental consent or even notification.
Whitewashing
History for California's Kids. California's efforts to be inclusive in the classroom could spell
disaster for education. A new law took effect January 1 requiring public schools to include the
contributions of gays, lesbians, and transgendered individuals in its history lessons. That alone is
proving unpopular with some. But the real issue is that the law also bans teaching material that reflects
"adversely" on gays or religions.
The Editor says...
To teach children right from wrong, it is necessary to be able to speak "adversely" about things that are evil
and wrong. To teach children that all religions are morally equivalent is false and misleading, and it is
pernicious and dangerous to teach them that perverse, deviant lifestyles are normal and natural. Wherever
the teachers are forbidden to speak the truth, the kids are wasting their time in the schools.
All they learn is how to stand in line and wait.
The
Great Golden State Business Exodus. California's in trouble. Businesses are leaving along with
intellectual and investment capital and skilled workers. But rather than face up to serious problems, legislators
pass silly laws. ... Beginning this year, the state requires schools to intervene if personnel see gay bullying.
Meanwhile, it makes schools teach the historical achievements of lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transsexuals.
2012 ushers in new abortion, immigration,
indoctrination laws. Girls seeking abortions in New Hampshire must first tell their parents or a
judge, employers in Alabama must verify new workers' U.S. residency, and California students will be the first
in the country to receive mandatory pro-homosexual indoctrination under state laws set to take effect at the
start of 2012.
Georgia
Grad Student Fighting Expulsion Over Christian View of Homosexuality. Faculty and administrators at
a Georgia university are attempting to derail the dream of one of its graduate students to become a school
counselor. The reason: Her Christian beliefs on homosexuality don't square with the politically
correct doctrines embraced by the school.
Parents
Outraged Over Teacher Removing Word 'Gay' from 'Deck the Halls'. Christmas carols help us get in
the mood to celebrate the holidays. But would they have the same meaning if we changed a few words? Parents
of students at an elementary school in Michigan say, "No." A music teacher at Cherry Knoll Elementary School in
Traverse City decided to change the word "gay" to "bright" in "Deck the Halls" for the children's Christmas concert.
Her reasoning for the switch? First- and second-graders would not stop giggling when they sang the word "gay."
The Editor says...
This simply means that the children have not been properly instructed. The word gay is perfectly
legitimate, but it is a word that has been hijacked in recent years and now erroneously refers to homosexuals.
If homosexuals are mentioned in classrooms at all, they should be called homosexuals. (I don't recall
homosexuality being mentioned at all when I was in school.) The children should also be told to wipe those
smiles off their faces, because there is nothing funny or cute or heroic about homosexuals, transvestites, or
others who openly engage in perversion.
Not-So-Free Speech in
New Jersey. New Jersey high school teacher Viki Knox may have been inspired by Christie's comments
to think that it was okay for a New Jersey public employee to express an opinion about homosexuality, as if the
First Amendment is alive and well in New Jersey. Knox believes that homosexuality is a sin. She
posted her belief — not on an official school web site, but on her personal Facebook page.
The Union High School District is investigating Knox to determine if she violated school policies.
California schools scrambling
to add lessons on LGBT Americans. At Wonderland Avenue Elementary School in Laurel Canyon, there
are lesson plans on diverse families — including those with two mommies or daddies — books
on homosexual authors in the library and a principal who is openly gay.
Obama
to Keynote Event of Gay Group That Promotes LGBT Curriculum in Elementary Schools. President
Barack Obama will speak on Saturday [10/1/2011] at the Human Right Campaign's (HRC) annual dinner in Washington,
D.C. — the HRC is a pro-homosexual lobbying group that, among things, is promoting a lesbian, gay,
bisexual, and transgender-inclusive curricula for children in elementary school.
Student
Suspended for Saying Gay Is Wrong. A Fort Worth high school student was sent to the principal's
office earlier this week for telling another classmate he believes homosexuality is wrong. Fourteen-year-old
Dakota Ary spent most of the day Tuesday [9/20/2011] serving an in-school suspension. It was punishment
for discussion in his German class at Fort Worth's Western Hills High School.
Texas
School Punishes Boy for Opposing Homosexuality. An honors student in Fort Worth, Texas, was sent
to the principal's office and punished for telling a classmate that he believes homosexuality is wrong.
Holly Pope said she was "absolutely stunned" when she received a telephone call from an assistant principal
at Western Hills High School informing her that her son, Dakota Ary, had been sent to in-school suspension.
Texas
High School Suspends Student for Opposing Homosexuality. [Scroll down] The boy's family
sought legal advice, and once an attorney from the Liberty Counsel entered the fray, the indefensible
suspension was lifted and expunged. By the sounds of things, young Dakota was the unwitting target
of an instructor with a clear sexual-political agenda.
ACLU Bullying Schools Into Allowing Porn Access on
Computers? At different locales around the country, in places as diverse as Detroit, Mich.,
Lawrenceville, Ga., and Camdenton, Mo., the ACLU is sending letters and filing lawsuits seeking to disallow
government school usage of certain Internet filters. They claim their campaign is designed to end the
blocking of "lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender" activist group sites, but in reality it will allow
school children to access to pornographic websites.
ACLU Wants to
Force School District to Allow Access to LGBT Websites Via School Computers. The American
Civil Liberties Union is trying to force a school district in the Missouri Ozarks to remove blocking
software from school computers that restricts student access to homosexual and transgendered Web sites,
but the district says it can't comply, because to do so could expose grade-school and high-school
students to pornography — in direct violation of federal law.
ACLU
battles schools over gay websites. A fierce legal battle on free speech and family values
is brewing about Internet filters used by school administrators to block students' access to gay
educational and advocacy websites. Gay rights groups say school systems cannot impose blanket
bans on gay-related informational and cultural websites on school computers, while values groups
warn that the absence of the blocking filters could leave children exposed to sexually explicit
material.
Teacher
Opposed To Gay Marriage Could Be Fired. A former "Teacher of the Year" in Mount Dora, Fla. has
been suspended and could lose his job after he voiced his objection to gay marriage on his private Facebook
page.
Our "Gay Pride"
President. [Scroll down] This is no doubt what Prof. Robert Weissberg (University of
Illinois-Urbana) had in mind in his warning to America: "Make no mistake, this is not just telling
youngsters to ignore 'odd' classmates, the traditional tolerance-based solution. Rather, this is a
drive to legitimize homosexuality, swathed in the rhetoric of tolerance, by portraying this sexual
predilection as 'normal' at a time when youngsters barely grasp sexuality of any variety. This quarrel
is hardly an academic one: confrontations are real, and, ironically as so often is the case, their
tumultuousness undermines the very social tranquility tolerance instruction is supposed to bring."
From Crayons to Condoms.
Under the guise of "tolerance" and reducing "hate crimes," students are often indoctrinated with the idea that
there is no difference between homosexuality and heterosexuality even though what is being taught may violate
the personal or religious beliefs of many of the students and their families. Homosexual, bi-sexual, and
transgendered panels are often brought in to discuss their lifestyles. However, heterosexuals are not
usually a part of any discussion.
Moonbeam
brings queer studies to California grade schools. The latest addition to the California public
school curriculum will not help our children learn how to write a complete sentence, locate their home state
on a map or even run a mile. Instead, it aspires to sensitize students, as early as kindergarten, to the
travails of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) Americans. The FAIR Education Act requires the
inclusion of the contributions of "sexual minorities" in California public school history lessons and textbooks.
As this new law suggests, homosexual rights advocates have convinced many Americans that they are large in number
but short on influence. The opposite is true.
Taxpayer Money
Will Help Homosexual Activists Establish 'Safe Spaces' in Public Schools. A homosexual
advocacy group is getting taxpayer money to increase the percentage of schools that set up "safe spaces"
for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) youth. The Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education
Network (GLSEN) will receive $285,000 annually for five years to partner with 20 targeted school districts
across the country to help keep LBGT students safe and healthy.
California Governor
Signs Landmark Law to Teach Gay History. Gov. Jerry Brown has signed a landmark bill adding
lessons about gay history to social studies classes in California's public schools.
Education Secretary
Advises School Districts on Homosexual Clubs for Students. Education Secretary Arne Duncan issued
a "Dear Colleagues" letter on June 14 advising federally funded schools about establishing clubs on
campuses, specifically Gay-Straight Alliance clubs for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender students.
The letter was issued from the department's Office of Civil Rights for elementary and secondary schools and was
sent to all school districts in the United States, according to Jo Ann Webb, spokesperson for the Department
of Education (DOE).
Calif.
School Permits Transgender Propagandist in Classroom. A school in Oakland, California wants to
change boys into girls and girls into boys, Fox News reports. The latest fad in the classroom is
"transgender" education, or teaching the idea that boys and girls really aren't that different, and anyone
can identify himself any way he wishes.
The "Fairness
Doctrine" Is Unconstitutional. [Scroll down] The largest union of educators, the National
Education Association (NEA) openly embraces the homosexual movement, and the acceptance of homosexuality.
They even have a Gay and Lesbian Caucus (GLC). They teach young people that opposition to such deviant
behavior is wrong and "homophobic." Much of what is taught in our schools and institutions of higher
learning is pure filth. But there is one thing that they will not allow, and that is the teaching of
traditional Judeo-Christian principles. Feminist and homosexual groups are welcomed on campus, but many
Christian groups have had to go to court to be allowed the equal right of having their groups. They are
the only ones who are not welcome.
Tennessee May Ban Teaching of Homosexuality in Elementary School.
Last week, the Senate Education Committee of the State Senate of Tennessee passed a bill that forbids public
school elementary and middle school teachers from "furnishing any materials on human sexuality other than
heterosexuality."
California
set to teach gay history and rights in schools. California is set to become the first US state to
require the teaching of gay history and rights. Children would take lessons on issues affecting gays,
lesbians, bisexuals and transgender people, with schools granted discretion about what age to start the
lessons.
Freedom
to be Christian but banned from acting Christian. Christians, Orthodox Jews or anyone with
traditional views of sex and marriage should be barred from state university counseling programs unless
they agree to violate their beliefs. That's the gist of theamicus brief the American Civil Liberties
Union (ACLU) filed Feb. 11 in a case in which a Christian student is challenging her dismissal from a
graduate counseling program at Eastern Michigan University in 2009.
Paladino
says kids shouldn't be 'brainwashed' into thinking homosexuality is OK. GOP gubernatorial
candidate Carl Paladino yesterday went well beyond his opposition to same-sex marriage, telling a Brooklyn
Hasidic congregation that children should not be "brainwashed into thinking that homosexuality is an equally
valid and successful option. It isn't." He told about 50 worshippers at the K'hal Adas
Kashau synagogue in Williamsburg that kids "would be much better off and much more successful getting
married and raising a family."
Carl Paladino Spoke the Truth.
For modern American liberals, there is no greater sin than to publicly express the view that there may be something
wrong with homosexual activity and that children should not be taught to consider homosexual behavior morally
equal to chastity and marriage. No prominent politician who questions the wholesomeness of same-sex sex
can escape a vicious beating by the liberal elite — because these beatings serve a strategic purpose.
They are designed to intimidate good people out of seeking political office and sticking up for the truth.
They are designed to uproot the laws and norms of our society from the immutable natural law that is the true
foundation of our freedom. They are designed to destroy truth and promote a lie.
'Gay
lessons' in maths, geography and science. Children are to be taught about homosexuality in
maths, geography and science lessons as part of a Government-backed drive to "celebrate the gay community".
Lesson plans have been drawn up for pupils as young as four, in a scheme funded with a £35,000 grant from
an education quango, the Training and Development Agency for Schools.
House Democrats Pass Bill to Grill School Children
about Sexual Preference. At the House Energy and Commerce Health Subcommittee hearing last Thursday
[9/16/2010], Democrats passed a bill to require federal health officials to question anyone seeking services
from Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) community health centers or other programs about their
sexual orientation and "gender identity." Introduced by Rep. Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.), H.R. 6109
requires HHS to obtain, retain and analyze sexual identity information from patients who seek healthcare,
including children.
Queering Education.
The recent court rulings against students Jennifer Keeton in Georgia and Julea Ward in Michigan reveal the power
amassed by the cabal of radicals in academia who have pushed the gay agenda into education. In both cases,
judges upheld the right of counseling departments at public universities to expel Christian students who refused
to counsel homosexuals in a manner that affirmed their homosexuality.
School must oblige transgender 6th-grader.
The radical homosexual agenda is making itself known in Maine, where a human-rights group has ruled a school must
accommodate the sexual preferences of a sixth-grader.
Augusta
State University to student: Accept homosexuality or leave school. An Augusta State
University counseling student has filed a lawsuit against her school claiming it violated her First
Amendment rights when it told her to change her traditionalist Christian views on homosexuality or
get out.
Court:
Student Can be Expelled for Christian Beliefs. A federal judge ruled in favor of a public university
who removed a Christian student over her belief that homosexuality is morally wrong. The decision, according
to Julea Ward's attorneys, could result in Christian students across the country being expelled from public
university for similar views.
Court
Upholds Expulsion of Counseling Student Who Opposes Homosexuality. A federal judge has ruled
in favor of a public university that removed a Christian student from its graduate program in school counseling
over her belief that homosexuality is morally wrong. Monday's [7/26/2010] ruling, according to Julea Ward's attorneys,
could result in Christian students across the country being expelled from public university for similar views.
U. of I. instructor fired over comments on
homosexuality. The University of Illinois has fired an adjunct professor who taught courses on
Catholicism after a student accused the instructor of engaging in hate speech by saying he agrees with the
church's teaching that homosexual sex is immoral.
Academic
Freedom, for Some: The Hounding of Dr. Howell. Officials at the University of Illinois,
Champaign-Urbana have sparked controversy over their decision not to extend the hiring of Adjunct Professor
Kenneth Howell, a highly rated instructor who has taught electives at the university since 2001 on the history
and tenets of Catholicism. Howell's apparent "offense" is that he accurately rendered those teachings
in an e-mail distributed to students in one of his classes.
He wore a crown, he wore a tiara. A pair of
gay best friends were voted prom king and queen by such a wide margin at an upstate New York high school that
the school didn't bother choosing runners-up.
Keep Your Students Home On "Day Of
Silence". Many public schools across the nation are planning to allow students affiliated
with GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network) to sponsor a "Day of Silence" on April 16.
Cooperating schools will allow students and teachers who support the homosexual agenda to remain silent during
instructional time. The AFA [American Family Association] is joining many other pro-family organizations
around the country in calling for families to pull their students out of participating schools that day.
AFA president Tim Wildmon said, "No school should allow an organization like GLSEN to hijack classroom instructional
time for political purposes. This turns taxpayer-funded government schools into propaganda forums for
promoting homosexuality and cross-dressing. No right-thinking school officials should allow the
educational environment to be prostituted in this way.
Day
of Silence Still Sparks Protest. The National Day of Silence encourages students to "take a vow of
silence to bring attention to anti-LGBT(Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) name-calling, bullying and harassment
in their schools," according to the Day of Silence website. ... In Bedford, New Hampshire, high school students who
observed the Day of Silence were given credit for fulfilling the "Democracy in Action" component of Real World Learning
hours, a requirement for graduation.
The Cut-and-Paste
Doctrines of the Left: This semester, the gay activist group SoulForce will make its second
visit in four years to the campus of the Christian university where I teach. We are one of sixteen
stops the group will make at campuses deemed to have policies which discriminate against gays. Their
annual tour is called the Equality Ride, an event which reflects the activists' desire for the gay rights
movement to be the civil rights movement of our generation.
Maine
Commission Moves to Ban Gender Specific Bathrooms, Sports Teams in Schools. The Maine Human
Rights Commissions taking heat over a proposal to ban schools from enforcing gender divisions in sports
teams, school organizations, bathrooms and locker rooms, saying forcing a student into a particular room
or group because of their biological gender amounts to discrimination.
Democrats
Push HR 4530, a Radical Safe Schools Czar's Dream Come True. On January 20, 2009 President
Barack Obama promised to "begin again the work of remaking America." He wasn't kidding. ... But you
haven't seen anything yet. The democrats in Congress are moving closer to passing the most radical
anti-American, anti-Christian, anti-family bill through Congress that we have seen in decades.
H.R.4530: Assault on Genuine Child
Safety and Morality. The purpose of this bill is not what is being stated, but is quite simply
to mandate in public schools one acceptable viewpoint on the issue of homosexuality, using purported violence
or harassment as the rationale, and the power of the feds as the hammer. The goal is to silence those
who may warn about or object to student expression of homosexuality or gender confusion. Such warnings
might literally save a child's life.
Kevin Jennings' twisted
terminology: Kevin Jennings is Safe School Czar not by some vetting breakdown. He was an official
in the Obama Campaign as its Gay-Lesbian-Bisexual fund-raising co-chair. For twenty years until 2008, Jennings
succeeded on a massive scale at pro-homosexual propagandizing of school children. His adeptness and
accomplishment at semantic deception are extraordinary.
Why
Obama's Elementary Queering Must Be Stopped. Kevin Jennings is not just your normal activist
nominee. He is a firm advocate of mandated affirmation of approval of homosexual actions by school
children, and to this end, his involvement with the GLSEN's "Day of Silence" has moved them to go beyond that
to demand "Queer Proms" in the local public schools, and to lobby for legislation in each state to change the
definition of marriage to make it mean something it has never meant. With Jennings' support, the GLSEN
chapter in Connecticut has begun pushing not just for "tolerance" or "acceptance" of those who choose to engage
in homosexuality in the public schools, but they have actually created an "activity" for the school systems
which pushes "positive levels of attitude" such as mandated "admiration" and "nurturance."
Critics
say Obama's 'Safe Schools' Czar is the Wrong Man for the Job. [Kevin] Jennings was appointed to
the position largely because of his longtime record of working to end bullying and discrimination in schools.
In 1990, as a teacher in Massachusetts, he founded the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN), which
now has over 40 chapters at schools nationwide. He has also published six books on gay rights and
education, including one that describes his own experiences as a closeted gay student.
Fairy Tales Don't
Come True. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco ruled recently that parents had no right to
know about a very graphic sex survey given out to elementary school students in California. In fact, the court said
that parents have no right to claim sole responsibility for their children's sex education. ... Schools often give
information without parental notice about multiple access points to enter such behavior through "gay" community groups,
homosexual school clubs, local health clinics, Internet chat rooms, and politically correct youth organizations and clubs.
Why
Obama's Elementary Queering Must Be Stopped: Obama sought to distract with his own, "Once, Twice,
Three times a Muslim" act in Cairo, all the while praying that no one would notice that a protector of a child
sodomist was being given access to children in our public schools. Kevin Jennings is not just your normal
activist nominee. He is a firm advocate of mandated affirmation of approval of homosexual actions by
school children, and to this end, his involvement with the GLSEN's "Day of Silence" has moved them to go
beyond that to demand "Queer Proms" in the local public schools, and to lobby for legislation in each state to
change the definition of marriage to make it mean something it has never meant. With Jennings' support,
the GLSEN chapter in Connecticut has begun pushing not just for "tolerance" or "acceptance" of those who
choose to engage in homosexuality in the public schools, but they have actually created an "activity" for the
school systems which pushes "positive levels of attitude" such as mandated "admiration" and "nurturance."
Gay Curriculum Proposal Riles Elementary School
Parents. A group of parents in a California school district say they are being bullied by school
administrators into accepting a new curriculum that addresses bullying, respect and acceptance — and
that includes compulsory lessons about the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community that will be taught
to children as young as 5 years old.
ACLU demands schools allow access to gay
Websites. Students and parents are demanding Metro Nashville's public schools stop blocking access to
Web sites about lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender issues. They complained to the American Civil Liberties
Union, which on Wednesday [4/15/2009] gave Metro and Knox County schools an April 29 deadline to announce plans
to open access to the non-sexual sites. A letter to the districts threatened lawsuits if they don't comply.
The Seventh Grade Is Invited
to Teacher's Commitment Ceremony. In Harlem a week ago, a 32-year-old math teacher handed out
slips of paper inviting the entire seventh grade of Columbia Secondary School to his upcoming ceremony,
where, the names on the invitation made clear, he'd be celebrating his commitment to another man.
The Editor says...
The article above appears in the New York Times, which reports the incident as something laudable.
No wonder the NY Times is going broke.
There just aren't that many people who concur with such a viewpoint.
Plans for gay high school
scrapped. Designers of a plan to create the city's first gay-friendly high school pulled the plug
on a watered-down version of the plan Tuesday [11/18/2008] but vowed to resurrect the idea next year.
College sued over speech against gay marriage. A college
student has filed a lawsuit saying a public speaking professor berated him in class for making a speech opposing same-sex
marriage. In the federal court suit filed last week, student Jonathan Lopez said that midway through his speech, when
he quoted a dictionary definition of marriage and recited a pair of Bible verses, professor John Matteson cut him off and
would not allow him to finish. He said Matteson also called him a "fascist bastard." A student evaluation form
included with the lawsuit lacks a score for Lopez's speech, and reads "ask God what your grade is."
Public Schools Change Young Evangelicals' Values.
Barack Obama's selection for secretary of education is his crony Arne Duncan, who most recently made news by recommending
the creation of a Chicago Social Justice High School-Pride Campus, where half the students would be homosexuals and the
other half straight. Somehow that school was canceled just about the time that Obama announced Duncan's appointment.
Chicago Schools Administrator:
Homosexual High School is "Necessary". A proposed homosexual-friendly Chicago public high school is
"necessary" for the well-being of students, a Chicago Public Schools administrator told CNSNews.com Wednesday
[12/10/2008]. Joyce Brown, who is in charge of the public school district's high school counselors, said
the "Social Justice High School — Pride Campus" is necessary because "the issue (of homosexuality) is out there."
Psychiatrist: Gay
Curricula Should Conform To Science. The press for tolerance education for homosexuality in classrooms is
driven by the desire to provide safe, learning-friendly environments for all students. The program of education is
based on the testimony of teachers that intimidation of children with same-sex attractions is rampant in schools, and
prejudice against gay people is strong enough to keep teachers from "coming out." However, a Philadelphia psychiatrist
told The Bulletin that many of the conceptions that drive the push for curricula that endorse a homosexual lifestyle have
no basis in scientific findings.
University Of
Toledo Sued For Firing Christian Official. The Thomas More Law Center, a public interest law firm that
defends and promotes the religious freedom of Christians, filed a lawsuit yesterday [12/1/2008] against the University of
Toledo for firing one of its officers for expressing an opinion against homosexuality. Crystal Dixon, a high-ranking
black official at the University of Toledo, was fired in May by the university because she wrote a newspaper commentary
expressing her personal Christian views regarding homosexuality.
California Elementary School Parents
Blindsided by Homosexual "Coming Out Day". Parents of students attending an elementary school
in Hayward, California, are in a frenzy after learning the school allegedly made no effort to inform them
their children were to participate in today's homosexual "Coming Out Day" school event, reports the Pacific
Justice Institute ... .
Yet another reason to pull your kids out of the public schools:
School Clams Up on 'Gay' Pledge Cards Given to
Kindergartners. A California school system refuses to say what action, if any, it will take after
it received complaints about a kindergarten teacher who encouraged her students to sign "pledge cards" in support
of gays. During a celebration of National Ally Week, Tara Miller, a teacher at the Faith Ringgold School of
Arts and Science in Hayward, Calif., passed out cards produced by the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network
to her class of kindergartners.
What same-sex "marriage" has
done to Massachusetts. At my own children's high school there was a school-wide assembly to
celebrate same-sex "marriage" in early December, 2003. It featured an array of speakers, including
teachers at the school who announced that they would be "marrying" their same-sex partners and starting
families either through adoption or artificial insemination. Literature on same-sex
marriage — how it is now a normal part of society — was handed out to the
students. Within months it was brought into the middle schools.

surprises lesbian teacher on wedding day. A group of San Francisco first-graders took an
unusual field trip to City Hall on Friday [10/10/2008] to toss rose petals on their just-married lesbian
teacher — putting the public school children at the center of a fierce election battle over
the fate of same-sex marriage.
Obama
High: No child left benign. Elected officials in Chicago made international news last
week by proposing to create a public high school for gay, lesbian and transgender students. ... Yet
no American journalist covering the presidential race has queried the Chicago-based Sen. Barack Obama
about this radical development in education reform: a key issue to which the young senator has
committed much of his public life and all of his executive experience.
California Bill Would Force
Public Schools to Honor 'Gay Hero'. A conservative group is warning parents about a bill under
consideration in the California Legislature that requires public schools to have an official "Gay Day."
AB 2567 requires Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger to proclaim May 22 of each year as Harvey Milk Day,
putting it on par with President's Day and Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
Update:
'Gay Day' Bill Vetoed in
California. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has vetoed a bill that would have designated May 22 as
"Harvey Milk Day," named after the homosexual San Francisco supervisor who was murdered in 1978. Conservative
critics said the bill was tantamount to establishing a "Gay Day" in San Francisco schools.
Irmo principal to resign after gay club approved for
school. The principal of Irmo High School has opted to resign rather than share his campus with
an organization for gay students. Irmo High School Principal Eddie Walker confirmed to The Associated
Press he is stepping down in the summer of 2009.
Toledo
Blade Article Gets University Employee Fired. [Scroll down] You know, I have often wondered
why the civil rights establishment has allowed homosexual extremists to co-opt the mantle of civil rights for
their own twisted agenda. [Crystal] Dixon is exactly right. I can no more "decide" not to be white
as she can "decide" not to be black.
But, it is possible to decide not to be gay. It is something
eminently under the control of the individual to change. It is a behavior, not an unalterable fact.
College
Suspends Administrator for Op-Ed on Homosexuals. The University of Toledo has suspended with
pay one of its administrators for writing a newspaper op-ed that questions whether homosexuality is a civil
rights issue. The school said the administrator was suspended precisely because her views on
homosexuality do not comport with those of the university, a state institution.
'Day of silence' generates controversy. The silent
observation is meant to highlight the plight of gay students who feel they must hide their sexual orientation for fear of
harassment, bullying and discrimination, according to those who are taking part. Those opposed to the activity say it
is really a veiled movement to promote a homosexual lifestyle in public schools. A number of Oregon City High School
students and some teachers took part, writing their thoughts rather than speaking.
The school announced the day of
silence over the school intercom, but Wallace said no notification was given parents.
'Be Happy Not Gay' shirt gets OK.
A US federal court has granted permission for a teenager to wear a T-shirt with the slogan "Be Happy, Not Gay" during a Christian
day of action on Monday held in response to a gay rights protest. The high school in Neuqua Valley, Illinois, had banned
student Alexander Neuxoll from wearing the T-shirt in class on Monday, when a Christian group is organising a "Day of Truth" to
show its opposition to homosexuality.
High School Officials Assign Racist "Gay"
Porn. Deerfield High School in Deerfield, Illinois, had assigned the pornographic book "Angels in
America: A Gay Fantasia on National Themes" to students as required reading. When a group of
outraged parents found out, they filed a formal complaint. Now the book has been changed to an "optional
title," meaning kids may still select the book for peer study under the direction of a teacher. The book
is replete with profanity, overt racism through multiple uses of the N-word, an explicit description of a sex
act involving Mother Theresa and some of the most graphic, vile and vivid depictions of homosexual anal
sodomy every put in print.
"Gay" Sex Kills? Can you imagine
officials at a middle school, junior high or high school setting aside a day to promote "tolerance" for heavy
smoking and drinking among children? How about a day where teachers encourage kids to "embrace who they
are," pick up that crack pipe and give it a stiff toke? Neither can I. The public would go
ballistic, and for good reason. But that hasn't stopped officials in thousands of schools across the
country from promoting other politically correct and socially "in-vogue" behaviors that — both
statistically and manifestly — are every bit as dangerous as the aforementioned frowned-upon
behaviors.
Oklahoma lawmaker threatened with legal action for
practicing free speech. Oklahoma state lawmaker Sally Kern has had to obtain legal representation in the
wake of a barrage of tens of thousands of hate-filled emails and threatened lawsuits after she spoke publicly about the
dangers of the radical homosexual agenda. During a recent speech at a Republican club meeting, Sooner State
Representative Sally Kern said she was concerned that the homosexual agenda would destroy the nation and that the
threat the movement poses is as big a threat to the nation as terrorism. She also told how young public school
children are being indoctrinated into believing that the homosexual lifestyle is normal.
Librarian
sues OSU to get his job back. A former Ohio State University librarian accused of sexual
harassment after recommending a conservative book for freshmen has filed a lawsuit against the university
and some of its faculty. Scott Savage, who said he resigned because of personal and professional
attacks on his character, asks for his job back and for OSU to be forced to change its sexual-harassment
policies. OSU is "an aggressive proponent of the homosexual lifestyle by virtue of its practices and
policies," Savage says in the lawsuit, filed in federal court because he says his civil rights were violated.
Children's Book About Same-Sex Penguin Couple
Causes Flap in Virginia. A children's book about two male penguins that hatch a chick together
has been pulled from school library shelves in Loudoun County, Virginia. Parents complained that the
book has a gay agenda and have called for its removal. But supporters say the book's removal is
censorship.
The Editor says...
Yes, it's censorship. So what? Censorship has an important role in elementary schools.
Family of girl, 12, sues
after 'Brokeback' shown in class. A suit was filed on behalf of a 12-year-old girl who claims
she suffered psychological distress when a teacher showed in class the gay-themed movie "Brokeback
Mountain." … According to the suit, a substitute teacher introduced herself as Ms. Buford to
Jessica's class at Ashburn Community Elementary School … She then said, "What happens in Ms. Buford's
class stays in Ms. Buford's class," the suit claims.
'Gay' cowboy love scenes 'traumatize'
schoolgirl, 12. A 12-year-old girl who says she was traumatized when her teacher showed the
film "Brokeback Mountain" featuring love scenes with homosexual cowboys is suing the Chicago Board of
Education for $500,000. "What happens in Ms. Buford's class stays in Ms. Buford's class," is
what the substitute teacher told eighth-grade students at Ashburn Community Elementary School after showing
the R-rated movie, according to a lawsuit filed Friday [5/11/2007] in Cook County Circuit Court.
One more reason to switch to home-schooling...
School challenge: Transgender student is age 9.
For school officials in Haverford Township, the challenge was daunting: What do you do when a 9-year-old student, with
the full support of his parents, decides that he is no longer a boy and instead is a girl?
The Editor says...
The problem is "daunting" only because common sense and basic decency have been thrown out of the schools along
with the Bible.
School disciplines students
for using the term 'gay'. The president of the Pacific Justice Institute says officials at a
California public school are having their free-speech rights violated in the name of "tolerance" for
homosexuals. The school, he says, could soon find itself facing a lawsuit for telling elementary
children they cannot use the word "gay" in a derogatory manner.
Outrage
over San Diego school's involvement in 'gay pride' parade. A San Diego,
California, school district has rebuffed efforts by 12 Christian men and women to prevent
minor children from being exposed to the city's 33rd annual homosexual pride parade. This
group, dubbed the "San Diego Twelve," is calling on the district school board to bar a K-8 charter
school from once again marching its students under the school's banner in this summer's "San Diego
LGBT Pride" parade.
Judge orders 'gay' agenda taught to
Christian children. A federal judge in Massachusetts has ordered the "gay" agenda taught to
Christians who attend a public school in Massachusetts, finding that they need the teachings to be "engaged and
productive citizens." U.S. District Judge Mark L. Wolf yesterday dismissed a civil rights lawsuit
brought by David Parker, ordering that it is reasonable, indeed there is an obligation, for public schools to
teach young children to accept and endorse homosexuality.
You're
Opposed to Same-Sex Marriage — You Must be a Member of the Ku Klux Klan. Without question,
the comments comparing Justin [Boone] and his teammates to members of the KKK were rude, offensive, and
thoroughly unprofessional. Moreover, given the fact that Justin is an African-American, these
comments were especially derogatory, inflammatory, and demeaning. The teachers should be reprimanded
and disciplined for their rank unprofessionalism.
Just
Say No to these Pro Homosexual Materials at School. Some tolerance lessons taught to our
kids — learning respect and civility toward people of all races and ethnic backgrounds — are
valuable. And certainly, we need to stop the cruelty involved in bullying. Unfortunately,
many of the lessons in our schools have been corrupted by adding to these positive messages the poisonous
myth that accepting homosexuality and "transgendered" behaviors is desirable, while objecting to
them — even in a civil way — is "harassment," "discrimination" and even "bullying."
School prepares for transgender second grader.
The issue of being transgender usually pops up with students in high school. Now a second grade Colorado
boy wants to dress as a girl and be addressed with a girl's name.
The Editor says...
In the good old days, this kid and his parents would all be taken to the gates of the city and
stoned. Then their house would be burned down. The next couple to consider converting
their son to a daughter would then have a reason to reconsider.
Does
Your School Promote Homosexuality? The activities and policies listed in this article may sound
nice, but in reality protect and promote homosexuality and sexual promiscuity, putting students directly in
harm's way instead of cautioning them about risky behavior. Is your school jumping on this foolish
bandwagon?
Transfer
denied for kids taught by transsexual. Five parents who asked to transfer their children out of
Batavia High School classes with a transsexual teacher have been denied, according to Batavia district
Superintendent Richard Stutzman Jr.
Gender
Terrorism: The Transgendered Agenda. Most
Americans would be outraged at how rapidly revolutionary ideas about gender are invading our classrooms.
But discussions about cross-dressing, sex change surgery and even abolishing gender altogether are now part of
the trendy "gay" agenda and are such are gaining widespread acceptance by teachers, the NEA, and school boards.
The
California homosexual activists' assault on schoolchildren: On May 11, the
California State Senate passed Senate Bill 1437. The bill demands "no teacher shall give
instruction nor shall a school district sponsor any activity that reflects adversely upon persons
because of their … gender … [or] sexual orientation." ... If a boy decides to come to school
in a dress, teachers may not even request that he change clothes.
Parents' Suit
Challenges Gay-Themed Book. Two couples who say a suburban school district undermined their
parental rights by giving out and reading storybooks with gay themes without telling them first have filed
a federal lawsuit against school officials. The couples claim the officials broke state law, violated
their civil rights, and were trying to teach their children about a lifestyle they consider immoral.
Uninvited guests: How hospitable should
Christian campuses be to visitors who oppose their beliefs?
Pinch Me If I Am Paranoid. A
bill is close to passing in California that would make all government (public) schools mandate a "positive"
portrayal of homosexuality in their textbooks and literature. However, many of these same schools will not
allow the mention of the word Christmas or Easter for fear that it will in some way "indoctrinate" the kids
into Christianity.
Same Sex "Marriage", Homosexuality, and the Education
of Children: The legalization of same sex liaisons as "marriage" in the U.S would drastically
alter the nature of what is taught to children in schools, community groups, camps, churches and in the
media. Currently, a high-pressure campaign by homosexual activists, supported by the National Education
Association, is underway to promote acceptance of homosexuality among children, and a great deal of headway
has already been made through the establishment of homosexual clubs, adoption of pro-homosexual school policies,
the showcasing of homosexual literature, special occasion speakers, and so-called anti-bias programs.
Catholic League: Homosexual High School
Teacher Was Rightly Fired. Jeff Crouse, a 45-year-old former seminarian, has been fired from
Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas after school officials learned he was trolling for same-sex dates

Book for First-graders: A North Carolina couple is outraged by a book
their first-grade daughter brought home from the school library in which a prince

15 Good
Reasons to Oppose 'Sexual Orientation' (Homosexuality) Codes in Schools
Falling
Boulder: Many American schools have sponsored pro-gay speakers, allowed
pro-gay art displays, and sanctioned clubs called "Gay-Straight Alliances." But
Colorado's Boulder Valley School District is going a step further, advancing new curriculum
standards that would require students to "demonstrate" their acceptance of homosexuality.
Gay
Crime Syndicate? The left’s latest experiment with segregation has
certainly started out with a bang. This September, New York City opened the nation’s
first taxpayer-funded school for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered
teens — Harvey Milk High School — and a crime wave is already underway.
Is
Harvey Milk High School really a good idea? This is the new American
myth. Gone is the "rags to riches" ethic. Now it's "woe is me. Give
me some special treatment." In this country, it is now taken for granted
that the principles by which our culture has traditionally functioned are no longer
deemed appropriate.
California
Tells Christian Club it Must Admit Non-Christians and Homosexuals. A new Christian club at
California State University–San Bernardino was recently denied official recognition by the university
because it required its members to adhere to Biblical principles of morality. Some of these
principles, as explained by the student organizer, Ryan Sorba, include abstaining from premarital
sex and homosexual relations.
School Sexual-Orientation Survey Not
Approved. Parents are angry and school leaders are promising action in response to a
"Heterosexual Questionnaire," approved by two teachers, that asked students questions such as: "If you
have never slept with someone of your same gender, then how do you know you wouldn't prefer it?" Hundreds
of Port Washington High School students were told to submit written answers and discuss the survey.
Government
Schools Promote Same-sex Marriage. "Any parent who leaves his or her child
in the hands of homosexual activists does not love that child. They are declaring
their indifference," said Robert H. Knight, director of Culture and Family
Institute. "It's a form of child abuse. They're allowing their
children to be seduced into immoral and dangerous sexual behavior."

Colleges
to avoid, part II. Parents thinking of sending their children to Georgia
Tech should visit the university website or stop by the campus to get a sense of how
far the university has fallen in recent years.
Male,
female, or other: can I check all three? On college campuses, psychotic is
very trendy. Next fall, my university will follow the lead of other schools by adding
an 'other' category to the gender section of admissions forms so that "students will now be
able to express exactly who they think they are." In short, unfortunate delusions are
to be treated as perfectly acceptable.
Comments on gays broadcast at
school raise furor. A teacher who condemned homosexuality as part of a broadcast at Miami Sunset
Senior High has come under fire.
Under the radar: Gay-rights groups are quietly but
aggressively advancing their agenda. While the news media focused on immigration last week,
California Democrats focused on completing the transmutation of public-school social science curricula into
a punctuated series of pro-homosexuality tracts.
Caution -- graphic descriptions throughout:
The
Hetero-flexible Gene. The recent New York Times article on the Cuddle Puddle at Stuyvesant
High School unwittingly undermines the legal strategy of the Gay Rights movement.
Baptists: Probe homosexuality in
schools. A resolution urging churches to investigate the level of homosexual advocacy in
their local school districts will be presented to the Southern Baptist Convention Resolutions Committee
for possible consideration at the denomination's annual gathering [2005].
This article is soaked with liberal bias:
Christians
Sue for Right Not to Tolerate Policies. Ruth Malhotra went to court last month for the right to
be intolerant. Malhotra says her Christian faith compels her to speak out against homosexuality.
But the Georgia Institute of Technology, where she's a senior, bans speech that puts down others because of
their sexual orientation.
Forcing the
"Trans-Gendered" Agenda on the kids. What this whole story is about is a mentally ill old man
who had his male parts cut off and is taking hormones to stop his body hair from growing. Not to make
light of any type of mental illness, but wanting to have your parts cut off by its very nature means you
need to have your head examined.
"King
And King" Promotes Perversion. America's parents need to realize that homosexual activists
are very serious about taking over our schools and brainwashing our children. They want to
indoctrinate our kids with the lie that homosexuality is normal and healthy, and that anyone (including
their parents) who believes differently is a homophobic bigot. If you want to get scared into
action, check out the website of the Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network. They conduct
seminars promoting the teaching of homosexuality to children as young as kindergarten age.
Gay Seminar Upsets
Parents. Parents of a student who attended a taxpayer-funded summer educational institute are
upset that the program included, without their prior knowledge, a seminar that promoted homosexuality.
The Editor asks...
Why is it necessary (and how is it possible) to promote homosexuality if, as
they claim, "you're born that way"?
Court
says high school can enforce dress code against anti-gay T-shirt. The ruling by the
San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals addressed only the narrow issue of whether
the dress code should be unenforced pending the outcome of the student's lawsuit. A majority
of judges said, however, that Tyler Chase Harper was unlikely to prevail on claims that the Poway
Unified School District violated his First Amendment rights to freedom of speech and religion for
keeping him out of class when he wore a shirt with the message "homosexuality is shameful."
[You can bet that the ruling would have been different if the message on the T-shirt had been different.]
Same story:
Public schools can
ban anti-minority messages. Public schools can prohibit students from displaying messages
that attack gays or other persecuted minorities, a divided federal appeals court ruled Thursday [4/20/2006] in
the case of a Southern California youth whose T-shirt proclaimed that "homosexuality is shameful."
The
homosexual agenda. Homosexual activists have set a well planned and well financed
agenda that started in the 1960s and now includes not only tolerance of their lethal lifestyle
but acceptance with privileges as a special class, as a minority group. The key target is
our youth.
ACLU Seeks Mandatory Homosexual
Sensitivity Training. The American Civil Liberties Union is suing school districts in California
and Kentucky in an attempt to force them to conduct mandatory homosexual appreciation sessions for students and
staff.
Editor's note: The notion of "mandatory homosexual appreciation sessions" is
quite a large step in the downward spiral of our traditional culture. Students may be encouraged to appreciate certain things, but
when have they ever been required to appreciate anything? Look up the word "appreciation" in the dictionary, and in its
definition you'll see words like gratitude, admiration, favorable judgment, etc. These students are now being told that tolerance is
not enough — approval of homosexuality is now mandatory.
Public Libraries, The Left, and the Corruption of Children. At
the Upper Arlington Public library, near Columbus, the public library is embroiled in controversy for having allowed two explicit homosexual
publications to sit in the foyer. The foyer serves as a gathering place for elementary school children before school.
Temple University Faces Suit After Trying to Have Christian Student
Committed. Back in 1999 Temple University sponsored the controversial and blasphemous play Corpus Christi, in which Christ is
portrayed as a homosexual. Michael Marcavage, then a Christian student at the Philadelphia school, complained to administrators.
Temple officials eventually tried to have Marcavage committed to a mental institution because of his opposition to the play.
Not only must you tolerate perversion, you must do so quietly.
WPU Censures Student-Employee for Expressing Biblical Beliefs Against
Homosexuality. A 63-year-old campus technician and student at a New Jersey university who sent a private e-mail describing
lesbianism and homosexuality as "perversions" has been formally reprimanded by the school for violating its non-discrimination policy.
An Investigation of the Biblical Evidence Against Homosexuality.
Certain school systems today actively teach youngsters the idea that we must embrace every concept that society popularizes, else we will be
unloving and intolerant. Thus, many children are quietly convinced from a very young age that if they do not give everyone "complete
and total acceptance," then they are bigoted and mean spirited.
On the use and abuse of labels: The homosexual
lobby [has] succeeded in getting some public schools to use the terms "harassment" and "bullying" as thinly disguised weapons to suppress
the free speech of those who don't subscribe to their view that the state and society should affirmatively validate the homosexual
lifestyle. Students who simply utter opinions contrary to the prescribed dogma are stigmatized as harassers or bullies, when they
engage in no harassment or bullying whatsoever.
UConn Students Divided
Over How To Greet Scalia. A same-sex kissing booth is not exactly what you'd expect to greet a U.S. Supreme Court justice
visiting Hartford next week. But for Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, known for his conservative rulings, strongly worded
opinions and a recent hand-to-chin gesture that caused a stir outside church, it might not be that farfetched.
Gay Rights Activists Arrested at Liberty. More
than 20 gay rights activists were arrested on trespassing charges Friday [3/10/2006] when they stepped onto the campus of Liberty
University, the school founded by the Rev. Jerry Falwell.
Judge Halts Pro-Homosexual Sex-Ed Class. A
group of parents took their opposition to the sex-ed courses to court last week, arguing that they depicted homosexuality as a natural and
morally correct lifestyle and did not offer any contrary opinion.
S*x for Dummies: The strangest aspect of the
Montgomery curriculum is the insistence that students should ponder their gender identity. In plain English, this means boys should
examine whether they really want to be boys, and girls should wonder if they should be girls. This is a current obsession in the world
of sex ed, apparently inserted here to accommodate transvestites and transsexuals.
Homosexual Activists' Conference Angers
Conservatives: Conservative, pro-family organizations are blasting a homosexual activist group for continuing its campaign to
"indoctrinate children in the nation's public schools by convincing kids that homosexuality is a normal and healthy lifestyle."
Young Activist Claims School Censored Protest Against Homosexual
Event. Members of a high school conservative group in California are saying their First Amendment rights were violated when
they tried to protest an upcoming pro-homosexual "Day of Silence" event.
High School's Rainbow "Diversity" Flag Doesn't Fly With Some
Parents. A rainbow-colored homosexual pride flag has created a stir in a Michigan high school. Members of the Howell
High School Diversity Club recently hung the flag to promote different types of sexual orientation within the homosexual community.
Mom Wants Pro-Homosexual Poster Out of Arizona Elementary
School. At issue is a wall poster at Washington Elementary School in Winslow [Arizona] that includes information about the

Are SpongeBob's Pants Really Square? Should the public

"Tolerant" Homosexuals are Intolerant of "Ex-Gays".
Following a "Gay Pride Week" observance, a Virginia school system rejected the idea of allowing ex-homosexuals to address its student
body. Bob Knight of the Culture and Family Institute says "ex-gays" seem to have no standing at all.
Attorney Claims Lesbian Teachers Using Schools to Push Homosexual
Lifestyle. Recently a group of lesbian teachers in the Scotts Valley Unified School District (Santa Cruz County) started
hanging pro-homosexual posters in their classrooms, discussing homosexuality in their classrooms, and providing referrals to homosexual and
bisexual organizations to students questioning their sexuality. Numerous parents have complained to school officials, who said they
would investigate matters. However, no administrative correction has been initiated in response to the complaints.
Suspension of Student Spawns Lawsuit Against San Diego School
District. Promotion of homosexuality is OK, but expression of faith is silenced.
In Defending Marriage — Take the Offensive! For
more than 40 years, the homosexual activist movement has sought to implement a master plan that has had as its centerpiece the utter
destruction of the family. The institution of marriage, along with an often weakened and impotent Church, is all that stands in the
way of its achievement of every coveted aspiration. Those goals include universal acceptance of the gay lifestyle, discrediting of
Scriptures that condemn homosexuality, muzzling of the clergy and Christian media, granting of special privileges and rights in the law,
overturning laws prohibiting pedophilia, indoctrinating children and future generations through public education, and securing all the legal
benefits of marriage for any two or more people who claim to have homosexual tendencies. These objectives that seemed unthinkable just
a few years ago have largely been achieved or are now within reach.
Hiding truth from schoolchildren. The
boy featured in an 'educational' video about gay issues is no longer gay. But that little detail is being repressed.
Homosexual Agenda in Public Schools Marches Forward.
GLSEN has achieved stunning progress over the past six years in our public schools by shifting the debate away from parent authority to
sexual orientation, student safety, equal access, and anti-discrimination.
Homosexual Teacher Tells Class: "I'm
Married". A middle-school teacher discusses his gay "marriage" in front of students. In response to a few negative
comments, he equated his "marriage" to historical topics ranging from suffrage and bigotry to the Magna Carta.
Stealth Agenda Trumps Academic Success in Schools:
Gov. Gray Davis and Superintendent of Public Instruction Delaine Eastin preoccupy themselves with the sexual orientation of students.
Using the themes of "safe schools" and "tolerance," they have implemented policies that have paved the way for the normalization of
homosexuality in the state's schools.
"Sexual Orientation" Codes are Harmful to
Schools: "'Sexual orientation' school codes are invariably used to advance one-sided, pro-‘gay' programs and classroom
teachings," said Peter LaBarbera, senior policy analyst at the Culture and Family Institute. "This bias violates parents' rights and
the beliefs of the majority of students who oppose homosexuality."
The Legal Liability Associated with Homosexuality Education
in Public Schools: An assessment of the risks and liabilities associated with policies and programs that normalize homosexual
behavior in public schools.
British schools 'will have
to promote gay rights'. New gay rights laws will force schools to teach homosexual equality, one of the country's most
respected judges warned yesterday [1/8/2007]. Teachers who tell pupils homosexual sex is wrong will be guilty of breaking the law,
former Lord Chancellor Lord Mackay of Clashfern said.
Parents
face court action for removing children from gay history lessons. Parents face possible court action for withdrawing their
children from lessons on gay and lesbian history. More than 30 pupils were pulled out of a week of teaching at a primary school which
included books about homosexual partnerships.
Male teacher returns to school as a
woman. For 20 years, Nicholas Kintz has taught math at West Linn High School. When students return to the classroom
this fall, the longtime teacher says they'll be introduced to Nicole Kintz.
California's SB 1437
Bill Would Force Schools to Support Homosexuality. Gender-neutral
bathrooms in public schools? Girls running for prom king? Those are just a few of the possibilities which could result if the
California Legislature passes SB 1437 which would force schools to adopt an exclusively pro-homosexual message.
California Assembly Passes SB 1437. A bill which prohibits any
California textbook from "portraying homosexuals negatively" been passed by the California Assembly and sent to the state Senate for a
concurrence vote.
Tell California Officials to Oppose Pro-Gay
Bill. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger did say last month that he would veto SB 1437 if it
reaches his desk — but there is no guarantee he will follow through on that statement. That's
why it's imperative he and Assembly members hear en masse from Californians and others about why SB 1437
is a bad bill.
Gay Bill Battle
Continues. SB 1437 would ban teachers, textbooks, instructional materials or school activities
from reflecting "adversely" upon people who are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender. … The measure
initially was wider in scope, seeking changes in social science curriculum to recognize the contributions of
gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender individuals.
