Gwyneth Paltrow: what’s wrong with second graders learning about homosexuality?
Life Site News ^ | June 13, 2011 | KATHLEEN GILBERT

Actress Gwyneth Paltrow is thrilled that her second-grade daughter is learning about homosexuality.

June 13, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Actress Gwyneth Paltrow, a top gay rights proponent in Hollywood, is thrilled that her second-grade daughter is learning about homosexuality.

In her newsletter GOOP, the Iron Man actress says that when her daughter came home with news about a classmate’s lesbian parents, she was enthusiastic.

“When my daughter came home from school one day saying that a classmate had two mommies, my response was, ‘Two mommies? How lucky is she?!’” she wrote.

Paltrow went on to question how Arkansas school board member Clint McCance, who apologized for publishing a death-wish against homosexuals on Facebook, could base his objection to the homosexual lifestyle on the teachings of the Bible.

“This concept, while foreign to me, is interesting, as it used to justify so much judgement and separation in our society,” wrote Paltrow. “What does it actually say in the bible that will cause some people to be upset by my line of thinking?”

The post was followed by the opinions of several religious voices favorable to homosexuality, including an Episcopal priest and priestess and a Kabbalah practitioner, who dismissed the Bible’s prohibitions as anachronistic or inconsistent with other teachings.

One dissenting opinion, by Anglican clergyman John Stott, outlined the prohibitions against homosexuality in the Old and New Testaments and explained, “The negative prohibitions of homosexual practices in Scripture make sense only in the light of its positive teaching in Genesis 1 and 2 about human sexuality and heterosexual marriage.”

While Paltrow once explained her daughter Apple’s unusual name as a “Biblical” choice, she has rejected any ties to the Judaeo-Christian religious tradition. “I don’t believe in religion. I believe in spirituality. Religion is the cause of all the problems in the world,” she told MSN’s Woman’s Day in March 2010.

They are innocent children. Why would you want to abuse young children in such a way? Libs are hopelessly selfish and stupid. The world would be a better place without them.

Ole Gwen is a hypocrite. She’s married to a guy but is in full support of homo “rights”. If she supported it in that manner, she would divorce her hubby and get involved in a lesbo relationship. Live the life, baby. Walk the walk, don’t just talk the talk. See how much she likes it then.

Does she not understand that the apple in the Bible has a NEGATIVE meaning? It makes as much sense as naming her kids Flood, Famine, Locusts, or Brimstone.

Because that’s too young to be teaching kids about sexuality. Whatever happened to letting them have an innocent and joyful childhood? That apparently goes out the window when you need more cogs in your indoctrination machine.

Paltrow, keep your mouth shut and the outfits skimpy, and I can continue liking you.

If she is so hot for it then she can teach her daughter at home. Other people don’t want their children learning anything at all about sex, especially perverted sex, until they are older. All sex education needs to be dropped from school, it is the parents business. Sex education was the start of the government taking over the raising of our children and we let it happen.

Answer - Possibly no beauty like Gwyneth after her. The possibly of No Grandchildren. No children to walk into the Kingdom of God after her. A legacy from her that means her grandchildren and great grandchildren will be few. Her genes will not go as far.

What a pity.

Liberals are absolutely obsessed with sexualizing children.

I don't know why this is, but I can't imagine any motivations that are actually good for the children themselves.

I have visited her site and was somewhat unimpressed with her talent. Imho, she is shallow and uninspired.

If she wasn't pretty no one would give her the time of day.

. . . . she has rejected any ties to the Judaeo-Christian religious tradition. “I don’t believe in religion. I believe in spirituality. Religion is the cause of all the problems in the world,” she told MSN’s Woman’s Day in March 2010.

Well, I guess Gwinnie's publicity tour for "Country Strong", during which she tried to show us how much she loved Red State values, is officially over.

Another empty-headed liberal line reader out of Hollyweird...who’d a thought it?

The gay/lebo coalition starting to recruit children at the age of 7 since they haven’t the ability to reproduce is a spiritual thing for this airhead? Did it never occur to this dimwit that there is a clear reason why they can’t reproduce?

No problem. “Kids, homosexuality is when two boys or two girls do things in bed together like your mommy and daddy.

It’s evil and wrong and an abomination to our Lord.”

Done.

Okay Gwyneth.... Let's teach your second grader about homosexuality. The high rates of STDs; the AIDs epidemic; the physical assault of lesbians against each other; the horrific gruesomeness of the gay serial killers; the murder of one's pick up early in the morning because the murderer doesn't want the fellow he picked up to leave; the use of pederasty as a mode of reproduction; ect.; ect.

At least if the percepts above are taught your second grader and others will be learning the truth.

Gwyneth? Would you approve of that?

Here I go again. So-called homosexuals don’t really have sex because you need two sexes to have sex. Sex about combining and mixing genes for reproduction. So-called homosexuals have orgasms. How do you explain this to a second-grader who has never had an orgasm?

Besides the moral implications (it's sin...Duh! Play by God's rules, or live a horrible, miserable life.), homosexuality is, through the use of parts against their design, biologically icky. The amount of bacteria involved in the exchange of fluids makes me recoil when a server at a restaurant speaks with a swish in his voice. And mental? How about the sheer numbers of gays and lesbians and trannies and whatnots that are in therapy, need to be in therapy, or are taking drugs to make themselves feel better. Or the numbers who are depressed, who take illegal drugs, or who are involved in abusive relationships.

Geez, Paltrow, pull your head out. Homosexuality is a losing proposition, in all its forms. And you want to push THAT on 2nd graders???? Wotta joik...
