Group blasts student's exclusion from Catholic school in Hingham
Source: boston.com

The Family Equality Council, a rights group for gay and lesbian families, is calling the exclusion of a student from a Hingham Catholic school because his parents are lesbians "indefensible.''

In a statement issued Thursday, Jennifer Chrisler, executive director of the Family Equality Council, said, "“What St. Paul Elementary School has done is indefensible. If the parents of the child want their son’s admission reinstated, the school should welcome him back immediately. The school made a decision to accept a student, then turned around and rescinded the child’s acceptance just because his parents are lesbians.

She stated that adoption by gay parents is considered appropriate by many groups.

"The National Adoption Center, American Academy of Pediatrics, American Medical Association, and American Psychological Association agree gay parents are good parents. Thirty years of research says the same.''

1. The school should lose non-profit status, should be asked to
leave the state and move to Arizona or something!

DISGUSTING!

2. I simply cannot understand...
...why these people would want to send their kid to a school that is run by an organization with attitudes like this:

"Pope blasts gay marriage as insidious and dangerous"

I also cannot understand how anyone else can be incredulous that this has happened.
Seriously, how could anyone have expected any other reaction?
Why would you want to join a club that wants you dead?

3. I HATE FAKE FUCKING CHRISTIANS
Deuteronomy 24:16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.


Ezekiel 18:20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
