"They said we would even have to take a teenager to gay association meetings. How can I do that when it's totally against what I believe?"

Religious campaigners say the couple are the latest victims of new equality laws which they say put gay rights above religious beliefs.

“Officials told the couple they would be required to discuss same-sex relationships with children as young as 11 and tell them that gay partnerships were just as acceptable as heterosexual marriages.”

______

That’s the goal!

Why does the left obsess over sexualizing children?

Do they not realize the carnage that they will create by requiring this to be taught?

Brothers, do not forget for the liberals, Christians are to be supressed and homosexuals are heroes.

No wonder the UK is going down the loo....

Keeping kids out of religious homes is exactly what these social engineers want.

I think the smart thing to do is sign the statement, then continue to parent in the way you feel is best.

It’s because they want to have sex with them.

Why does the left worry about sexual politics at all when they should be worrying about their souls (most of them should, anyway..)!

You can’t worry about something you don’t have.

Carnage is what they want. One needs social works to fix carnage and that means growth of government dependence.

It really is simple — Unfortunately all too obvious to anyone who thinks.

Disgusting that society gets destroyed in the liberal process.

Almost perfectly stated . . . except that it should not say "gay rights" but "pro-homosexual propaganda."

People of Faith such as these will most likely have a difficult time with such a plan, as it is dishonest, even though it would be done for a worthy goal.

Also, if a Government agency were to direct them to involve themselves in a specific homosexual oriented activity and they were to refuse, prosecution would be likely.

I don't get the impression that these good people are made of money, and so an extended incarceration coupled with a massive court challenge is probably not something that they would be able to pursue.

"because they want to have sex with them" Not only is that immoral, it's disgustingly true. So the child already is in Foster Care, State Forbid that he actually learns different mores, ones that keep him from engaging in such things.

Ayn Rand put this in its proper moral perspective when she pointed out something to the effect that a thief who wants the combination to your safe is not entitled to an honest response.
