I'm conflicted on this - I'm sure the child will be more likely introduced to Christian moral values at the school than at home with the two "parents" (sexual gender not identified).

They will either shut down the school or force it to use a pro-gay curriculum.

If they had admitted the child, they would still get sued.... the parents would force all faith out of what the kids get taught

“which received $61,455 in public, federal funding for the current budget year” –

Stay away from the trough if you don’t want gov. calling the shots.

Admitting the kid threatens the curriculum. It’s not about the kid.

Great point, however I have to ask myself, is this just a setup? Why would 2 gay people want their child to be taught that homosexuality is an abomination in the eyes of God etc?

Just seems to me they may be trouble makers looking for a law suit? Pushing their agenda

Are they not aware what the Bible has to say about their lifestyle? I suppose it`s possible, so many are brainwashed these days

This school was targeted because they took Fed Money.

Solution= Give it up/back and never take again.

The public funding binds you to Caesar and not to God.

'Gay' "parents",

The First Amendment overrides your so-called "New Mexico Human Rights Act." Go pound sand. Or each other.

Government blackmail!!!! This school should return the Federal funding and free itself from the clutches of the HomoNazis.

This "couple" of sexual perverts is just attempting what so many of the HomoNazis across the country engage in... Filing lawsuits against any group that rejects their sick, twisted sexual perversions. How long do you think it will be before that poor three year old starts dating his first boyfreind?

An official from Hope Christian – which received $61,455 in public, federal funding for the current budget year – declined to comment.

Passages like this kill me. The writer is obviously biased and the implication is that federal funds are good, because the federal government is the source of all righteousness, goodness and equality. I know, I know, the money has strings attached and there are laws in place but the mention of the cash is always a tipoff to the ongoing objective: the federal protection racket for special interests.

I’m not conflicted at all. These people do this for one reason and that is to attack religious schools especially Christian schools. As for them accepting cash from the state the small amount I’m sure is covered by the parents of the Christian students who pay local taxes. The argument that the the government can put forth whatever unreasonable demands and force a leftist agenda violating the freedom of association of their targets simply because they accept any tax payer funds is crazy. When liberals are the only ones paying taxes I might change my mind but they aren’t the only ones and their voice should not be granted a special level of legal standing simply because they are gay or whatever they might be.

Homosexuality is a perversion and I wish we had laws like those in St Petersburg Russia. These people have proven they will not live and let live. The time for playing nice is OVER. If you want a future governed by the Pink Hand then hide your head in the sand and go ahead and embrace the idea that believing marriage between a man and a women is bigotry but don’t you dare call yourself a conservative because you aren’t and you aren’t a moderate either you are a moron.

Jeez. Is this homosexual agendy really accelerating? Or are they just reporting it more to demoralize people. It seems this perverted filthy lifestyle is going to be shoved down our throats whether we like it or not.

These two bastard “parents” did this to coerce a Christian institution go against scriptures.

I am sick and tired of gays doing this crap. There are more than enough gay friendly schools for them, but they target Christina schools on purpose. They can go to hell as far as I am concerned, especially when these abortion-loving scum use a child as a prop.

Why are you conflicted? As a parent who will answer the forms as to why you should enroll your child into a school that IS NOT conflicted about the role of Christ, Lord have mercy!

The letter should have been one letting them know that while the Christian school would be willing to accept the child, they would not be changing their pro traditional marriage perspective and that they explicitly teach that homosexuality is a sinful lifestyle.

As such the parents may wish to enroll in some other program more in line with their chosen lifestyle so as not to confuse the child.

Put it on record and in writing that they acknowledge the school uses a Bible based curriculum and that they agree to not interfere or object to it if they wish to enroll a child.

They won’t enroll and they won’t have grounds to sue.

The "fed money" malarkey is just a red herring - everyone uses federally funded infrastructure and resources in everyday life. That doesn't mean we have to relinquish the PRACTICE of our personal, deeply held beliefs.

You know the only reason those parents want their child enrolled there is to make a point. Poor kid being used by his parents for such.

There is no such thing as a “gay parent”-
A parent begets, has offspring, has issue, by definition.
Gays can`t beget crap.

This story actually reinforces exactly what this Christian school knew to begin with, that any dealings with homosexuals are statistically more likely to end up with a lawsuit. Again, to employers, renters, business proprietors... have a cover story rehearsed so it just rolls off the tongue.

Im in two minds about this as well.

On the one hand, it certainly is not the childs fault that he has been brought up in this environment. And he may learn something better at this school, than he would at home.

On the other, the school is free to admit whom it wants.
