But requiring parental permission for all discussions about sexuality, as the report suggests, carries parents' rights too far, especially when it involves after-school programs, said Wayne Besen, spokesman for the Human Rights Campaign, a homosexual advocacy organization.

Not shocking to see in print, but it certainly underscores the concern of many parents that these groups believe they are entitled to indoctrinate their children with whatever morals/behaviors they deem fit, regardless of the parents wishes.

Homeschool.

The parents themselves are often the threat.

The heart of the public school system. You can't control children's minds if they have access to their parents. The more you cut off that access, the better. You wouldn't have any luck simply announcing a plan to cut parents off from their children so you can practice your mind control, so continually tell people that parents are a threat to their children. The "enlightened" parents, the ones who know that it is only other parents who are a threat, can be counted on for support.

Get your children out of public school now.

I don't own a weapon. I'm challenging the wisdom of my decision more and more every day.

Shalom.

I can't help but wonder if maybe the NEA has been hijacked by queers in much the same manner that some Catholic Diocese (sorry if that's the wrong term or incorrect spelling) had been.

Just for your information, the Catholic Church has not been "hijacked by queers".
FYI.....300 priests out of 46,000 is not a landslide, by any means!
My parish church is packed each weekend with several masses.....no empty pews there.

I apologize if I've offended you, that was not my intent at all, but it does appear that there were problems in some areas and I congratulate the Church on taking steps to solve them.

My son told me that the purpose of the sex ed class at his school was to make kids into homosexuals. He said thats what all the kids think. As a result we are working very hard on an opt-out program with more teeth to it, and to educate parents on the content of the sex ed curriculum before they sign permission slips allowing their children to attend.

Any student who gets caught harassing a gay or lesbian student should be punished appropriately.

How do you enforce this? Must it be proven that the "harrassed" student is actually gay or lesbian? How do you do that? Do you accept their say-so?

What of the "harrassed" student thought he was homosexual at the time of the alleged offense but has become inclined to heterosexuality when the time comes to execute punishment on the alleged harrasser? No offense?

And if the "harrassed" student is confused about his sexuality, do you hold punishment in abeyance until he makes up his mind?

If the "harassed" student firmly decides he is bisexual do you give the alleged tormentor a pass based on the heterosexual component of the aggrieved's sexual inclination? Do you cut the punishment in half? What do you do?

If the "harassed" student later repudiates his homsexuality alogether after punisment has been meted out, do you grant the alleged harasser a pardon and restore his privileges? Do you grant him reparations?

If the "harassed" student was lying from the start, e.g., it is discovered he is dating only girls from another school--but secretly--and is posturing as gay to gain special minority privileges or to gain sympathy and a PC ugly-stick to beat his teachers and other students with at his own high school, what do you do?

I think it's even wors. I think the NEA has been hijacked by idiots.

The queers find them useful idiots.

Shalom.

It only takes one man to hijack a plane, no matter how many men are in the passenger seats.

I don't know if the RCC has been "hijacked" by queers, but the American seminaries may have been, and that would have a profound impact on the Church in America no matter what the rank and file priests think.

In the same vein, back in the 1980s you could still go to an Episcopal church and think it would be most likely conservative. But the denomination had already been hijacked. Now it is the minority of Episcopal Churches where the faith of our fathers is taught or practiced.

Shalom.

I'm glad students are waking up to this fact. They aren't as easily led as some people think. A lot of times the liberal indoctrination just doesn't take.

"Besen said the report is the latest attempt by anti-homosexual groups to advance their political agenda."

And just what have the sodomites and lesbians been doing? How anyone can offer such obvious hypocrisy as an argument is waaay beyond me! Apparently, the perversion has corrupted his basic reasoning ability (. . . now a disability).
