How homosexual school clubs offer sex to students
(Put on your hip-waders for this one ... and turn down your bullshit detectors or you'll risk permanent hearing loss from the constant loud beeping while you read through this tripe from our friends at that bastion of objective journalism known as World Net Daily)

The mainstream media is sure to spend time this next week on the subject of homosexuality and youth, precipitated by the observance in hundreds of high schools of the so-called "Day of Silence" on Wednesday, April 26. This is the day that students who are "GLBT" – that's "gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered" – pledge to remain silent all day to draw attention to what they believe is discrimination.

On Thursday, April 27, some schools will be blessed with a Christian response, the "Day of Truth," started several years ago by the Alliance Defense Fund. "Day of Truth" participants will explain the reality of homosexuality along with the light of Christ's truth and the hope therein.

The "Day of Silence" in most schools is organized by the homosexual club or "gay-straight alliance" as it is often called. Both GSAs and the Day of Silence are projects of a group called GLSEN, the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network. But GSAs are too often disruptive activism – training groups that prop up the homosexual identities of vulnerable kids by fomenting bias against traditional morality, while concealing the grave risks of homosexuality.

Yet many times when a school tries to prevent a "GSA" from starting on campus, the American Civil Liberties Union or a similar legal group steps in. They will claim that students who prefer homosexuality have the right to this "viewpoint." Misapplying the federal "Equal Access Act," they will maintain that if other non-curricular clubs exist, then this type of club should exist, too. This, of course, ignores the prerogative of all schools to ban any activities that are per se harmful to kids and homosexuality is exactly that. But through framing it as a "viewpoint" and not a behavior, the ACLU manages to suppress the health risks – or get the school officials to do so. And in most cases, the schools and their boards will concede and cave.

2. To help counter efforts to pressure schools from disallowing LGBT clubs
I would suggest that all such clubs be re-named THE JESUS CHRIST LESBIAN GAY BISEXUAL AND TRANSGENDER CLUB of This or That High School.

If fundie churches can hijack Jesus' ministry for their own proselytizing, so can other groups on the point of inclusion.

These re-named LGBT clubs would not be organized around the Christian practice but around the notion of Jesus' evolved sense of inclusion.

3. Oh my...

I can't even turn off my bullshit detector long enough to read that crap! If there is anything in the remainder of the article (after the first five or six paragraphs or so) that loosely resembles anything rational, please let me know.

I truly believe that everyone in America knows someone that is gay, whether or not they realize it. That's why it is so important for all of us to be out and open and truthful about who we are. The more that gay people live their lives honestly and without shame, the more that people in general will overcome their prejudgments and the stereotypes that the fundamentalist right perpetuates against us.

On edit: I corrected some awkward grammar...

4. I believe these people are more harmful to kids than homosexuality could
ever be.

"Christ's truth"--that's what they want to promote, eh? Well then, they will have to show me the part of the Bible where Jesus says homosexuality is wrong and gravely harmful. Good luck finding that passage, folks. It doesn't exist.

Wouldn't you think that if Christ had some "truth" to impart about homosexuality, someone would have listened and made sure to write it down? Yet it appears nobody did. Interesting.

Red Flags to Watch For: Tactics Being Used
to Promote Homosexuality at School
...and Silence Objections < Print >

Ready to do a little research? Here’s how to find out how much groundwork has been laid in your school system to facilitate acceptance of homosexuality-and, more frighteningly, to silence students, teachers, parents or voters who object.

Find out how many of the following activities and policies are being implemented in your school system:

1. A non-discrimination policy on “sexual orientation” for teachers and students.
It’s usually part of a bigger policy saying, “We do not discriminate based on race, religion, etc.” This policy will be used to label anything the activists don’t like-including too much emphasis on traditional families and heterosexuality-as “discrimination.”

2. An “anti-harassment” or “safe schools” program specifically on “sexual orientation.”
Claims to protect students from violence, but why dwell just on homosexuality? Conduct codes already exist. The real goal is to associate all objections with “hate” and “violence,” thus intimidating those who disagree into silence.

3. A homosexual club for students.
Students are trained to be activists who will talk to school boards, the media, etc. Meetings focus on rejection of traditional values, particularly religious beliefs that don’t accept homosexuality. “Straight” supporters may also attend and are encouraged to explore alternate sexuality. Students with same sex attractions will be supported if they begin this behavior.

4. Diversity or tolerance lessons to stop “homophobia.”
Such lessons equate acceptance of homosexuality with religious/racial tolerance. Many such programs are now in elementary schools. In reality, they portray traditional values ( and thus, parents and communities holding them) as “hateful.” Note: federal money supports these lessons! Through the “Safe and Drug Free Schools” section of federal education law, organizations can receive funds for developing and distributing so-called “tolerance” lessons These materials classify objections to homosexuality as “bigotry” just like racial prejudice. Many of these programs are blatantly anti-Christian, and oppose traditional values. (See Resources for more details.)

5. Pro-homosexual literature in libraries, & language and social studies classes.
The number of novels and storybooks has exploded in response to the demand created in schools; it would be impossible to list all the books being used. Most are “coming out” stories, or tales about children with homosexual parents. Middle and high school books are often very sexually explicit.

6. Special events: days of “diversity,”“pride” days, days of silence.
Organized by a handful of students and teachers, the whole school will be intimidated into going along. This tactic will soon move down into the elementary schools.

7. Diversity and “sensitivity” training for teachers.
This is done behind the scenes to make teachers support the agenda. Usually, no exceptions are available for teachers who have personal beliefs that differ.

8. AIDS speakers, “safe sex” education classes.
This was the first avenue into the schools. Validity of alternate “families” and sexual practices is often a basic assumption..

9. Hiring a staff “support” person for homosexual students
- who then becomes an internal monitor for the homosexual cause, and may even keep track of “hate speech” incidents.

10. Openly homosexual teachers and staff.
These are then role models, in-house activists, and possible confidants for students who want to start homosexual behavior. Student molestation becomes a real risk.

11. Liaison with community homosexual youth groups.
Ostensibly to “support” youth with same sex attractions, these groups welcome even 12 or 13 year olds, and parental notification is not required. Students socialize with older practicing homosexuals. Many schools refer students to these groups!

12. “Safe” zones throughout the school.
Usually symbolized by an inverted pink triangle, these are classes or counselors’ offices “safe” to discuss homosexuality, where no disapproval will be given. Sadly it’s those who facilitate this unsafe lifestyle, not those who disapprove, who present a safety risk.

13. Pro-homosexual counseling.
Counselors refer students to community groups without parental knowledge. The ACLU and other groups warn schools not to advocate heterosexuality as the norm in counseling students with same sex desires, nor to discuss the fact that many people have overcome homosexual feelings! Schools who tell students the whole truth are may face suits by these radical organizations! Can you believe that we actually have schools that won’t tell children heterosexuality is healthier than homosexuality? Yet how much money is going into these same schools for AIDS education? Is there something nonsensical about this picture?



:eyes: These people really think too much about sex. Don't theu have anything important to do... like raise their kids or volunteer for a charity? Oh wait. Stupid question. They're too busy promoting hate and discrimination. Silly, silly me. :crazy:

7. What a crock of excrement!

Yeah, and I'm disappointed that they call my emphasis on "traditional White America" discrimination, but what can I do? :sarcasm:

10. Openly homosexual teachers and staff.
These are then role models, in-house activists, and possible confidants for students who want to start homosexual behavior. Student molestation becomes a real risk.


Funny, of the dozens of student molestation cases I've heard of, they've all involved "openly heterosexual" teachers.

13. Pro-homosexual counseling.
Counselors refer students to community groups without parental knowledge. The ACLU and other groups warn schools not to advocate heterosexuality as the norm in counseling students with same sex desires, nor to discuss the fact that many people have overcome homosexual feelings!

Heterosexuality is "healthier" than homosexuality? That's your personal (false) opinion. And in #8 you were complaining about AIDS speakers, yet here you complain about not having enough funding for AIDS education in the schools. Make up your effing mind!

And the people who instituted "abstinence only" sex-ed in the schools, which is inadequate and full of lies are now clamoring for schools to "tell students the whole truth". :rofl: I suppose it depends on what you mean by "the whole truth". :eyes:


Jay-sus these people are unbelievable!

8. these are blatant efforts to take the culture war
another step further.

they mean to gin up the rhetoric until some conservative chritian footslodier like t. mcveigh does his godly duty and kills somebody{ies}.

they can then disavow the the footsoldier -- but they have delivered the message -- conservative christians are here to kill gay folk.

that's their message of love.
