A nationally distributed training video produced by a "gay" advocacy group – which claims it's been shown on more than 100 public television stations – advises teachers to promote homosexuality as normal and healthy to children as young as kindergarten age, regardless of what values the child has been taught at home.
"We are asking kids to believe this [homosexuality] is right. Not as a matter of moral principle, but as a matter of, we're educating them and this is part of what we consider to be a healthy education," one unidentified teacher said during the videotaped meeting of educators preparing to teach – or as their critics charge, "brainwash" – their students.
That particular response was to a question from another teacher who wondered how to approach homosexual advocacy when a student comes from a background of biblical teaching, that is, that homosexuality is a sin.
"I don't know what to do about this but, as a school are we saying that kids have to support this? I guess that's what it sounds like to me that we're saying. If a child comes from a background that says homosexuality is not correct, are we telling that child that they're supposed to, this is what you are supposed to do?" asked the teacher.
The comments are just some of what is horrifying parents who now are seeing video clips of the "It's Elementary" video prepared for use in schools.
Brian Camenker, who heads the Mass Resistance organization, which also has publicized the videos, said people are flooding his office with calls, asking what they can do.
They're physically sickened by watching that. People with kids are wondering is this what's going to happen to them in schools in America," Camenker told WND. "The reaction we've gotten has been overwhelming.
"It's one thing in the abstract to read about what's happening in the schools, it's another thing to actually see it," he said.
The first video excerpt, which follows here, shows actual footage of teachers indoctrinating children that homosexuality is "healthy education."
As WND has reported, California lawmakers currently are considering a bill that would not only promote homosexuality, it would ban anything from public schools that could be perceived as "reflecting adversely" on the homosexual lifestyle choice.
Could that target a statement of Christian belief, or a Bible verse? Sure, say those battling the issue.
Camenker said the videos originally were posted on Youtube, but were taken down suddenly to be replaced with some pro-homosexual promotions. "It's some really nasty stuff. The gays have put up things calling anybody who doesn't [endorse homosexuality] bigots," he said.
Camenker said the 78-minute video was produced and distributed by homosexual activists and is "meant to be a training video for homosexual activist teachers across the country."
The video shows administrators telling teachers to talk "about gay and lesbian issues" and teachers showing students pictures of celebrity homosexuals.
Students are grilled by teachers about how they would feel if someone told them they couldn't have two moms. "What do you mean by open-minded?" a teacher asks what appears to be about a 1st-grader.
"If you're not very open-minded, say there's a new vegetable, then you won't try it. If you are open-minded, then you would try it," the student responds.
Another teacher asks students to think about words that would "make a gay person feel bad."
Another adult is quoted, "I don't think it's appropriate that values only be taught at home …"
Still another segment shows young children applauding wildly as a teacher publicly announces his homosexuality.
More of the "educating" goes on in the second excerpt:
"Although 'It's Elementary' was made over a decade ago, it's still a major training film for homosexual activists, is still being shown in schools across the country, and has become a standard feature at homosexual teachers' conferences," the Mass Resistance site says. "How much further has that agenda reached since then? How many more young children are being desensitized to homosexuality in their young years by these sophisticated techniques. And more importantly, when are you going to get involved to do something about it?"
A LifeSiteNews report quoted Stephen Bennett, who runs Stephen Bennett Ministries as warning about the "brainwashing" shown in the video.
Bennett told LifeSiteNews he was horrified, and "had tears in my eyes" after watching. "It's so heartbreaking to see little kids brainwashed," he said.
The online company that still sells the video notes that it has been shown on more than 100 public television stations and "model's excellent teaching about family diversity, name-calling, stereotypes, community building and more."
"We make films that make change," said Women's Educational Media, the maker. "We ensure that our films are used to inspire meaningful social change."
It also has produced films promoting homosexuals as parents and the 2004 San Francisco debacle where thousands of same-sex couples were given marriage licenses that later were declared invalid by the state Supreme Court.
The homosexual activist strategy is stated plainly in the film's promotion. "Waiting to teach children to accept differences of all kinds until middle school or high school is too late; statistics show that by sixth, seventh and eight grades, harmful stereotypes already have begun to take hold …"
Idiot Americans
And we actually get to pay for it is the salt in the wound.
You know, one issue that Republicans could use to really rally support across the base, the swing voters and even those on the moderate left is to push for a Parental Rights initiative that would define and protect, in law, the rights of parents.
Included would be - rights to spank, rights to sex education of their choosing, rights to notification, etc.
Children, and their actions, are ultimately the responsibility of parents. If your kids go and burn down a house, it is YOUR fault. The buck stops with the parents. But lawmakers must give parents the freedom to ensure that the job is done.
Homo Sex = GOOD at any age
Hetero Sex = Acceptable only if both parties are at or over the age of consent and both fully agree to act, but still BAD, abusive and an exploitation of the female.
Disgusting beyond belief. The End Times are surely near.
This is abhorrent. An utter disgrace upon our nation.
“... as normal and healthy ...”
LOL! I guess AIDS never happened.
Ignorance...beyond comprehension or beleif...
1994, an obituary study revealed that the median age of death for homosexual males was 42 and for lesbians was 49. Source: Cameron, Playfair, Wellum, “ The Longevity of Homosexuals: Before and After the AIDS Epidemic, “ Omega Journal of Death and Dying,” 1994.
Except for the fact that it is patently abnormal and unhealthy.
Kids who read The Emperor's New Clothes might see what's going on here.
NEA: "Oh just shut up and keep brainwashing the children"
These hyopocrital fruits are saying they are born queer ,yet they spend all their efforts trying to convert young kids into their perversions./
Some may indeed be born homosexual,but IMo the vast majority are recruited,and for the life of me I cant see wht teachers would be willing to help them in destroying the lives of innocent kids to these pedophilic sick perverted purveyors of hedonistic sexual acts..
Only to those that do not believe. This goes way beyond "ignorance" into the realm of willful stupidity. When you condone evil by trying to turn perversion into virtuous behavior you've become depraved.
If you'd rather embrace the Lie, to fullfil a selfish desire, you're not only spitefully ignorant, you're hopelessly unwise.
Are they also showing the devastating death toll from the lifestyle of the homosexual through one of the biggest plagues ever on earth ????
Teach That !!!
Excellent observation!
Ooops! I just did a post on this,, not knowing it was already up!!
When you watch the video,, and make no mistake,, this is no different than Nazi propaganda,, you will watch a small child answer a question about the definition of having an open mind! In his answer,, he says you have to try other things to have an open mind!! These children are being taught that if they DO NOT TRY HOMOSEXUALITY, THEY ARE NOT OPENED MINDED!! I knew it would come to this!! We are at the place that you are a bigot if you have not had a homosexual experience!! Once again,, it was never about tolerance!! Anita Bryant was right!! It is all about recruiting!!
The center of the homosexual agenda is all about gaining access to other people’s children.
