The curriculum calls it a myth that homosexuality is a sin, asserting that the Bible contains only six passages that condemn homosexual behavior but numerous passages condemning heterosexual behavior.

Crap like this really irritates me. Just how many references are there to homosexual behaviour in the Bible is irrelevant. EVERY ONE OF THEM CONDEMNS HOMOSEXUALITY.

Heterosexual behaviour is adamantly condoned under the right circumstances, homosexual behaviour is NEVER condoned.

Abombination!

Public schools are very much dominated by the left—much more so than when I went to school (a public school).

We (mostly my wife) home school our kids, but I help out with a course or two. I am preparing to teach AP Government to our oldest child, and we have A-Beka as our curriculum, but as a second resource I purchased one of the popular Government textbooks used in public schools. The left-wing bias is much more than what I expected, and it starts on page 1. I am only through the first chapter, and I think I am going to use this book as a source of debate—i.e., take a left-wing statement from this book and have my child research and write a reasoned response.
