from the journal of fundie nuts everywhere, American Family Assn's OneNewsNow:



Parents fight homosexual indoctrination of kindergarteners
Charlie Butts - OneNewsNow - 5/16/2009 4:00:00 AM


A California school district seems intent on teaching pre-school children to accept the homosexual lifestyle.

The Alameda Unified School District announced it was considering a supplemental curriculum to eradicate "homophobia" in kindergarten children. Brad Dacus, founder of the Pacific Justice Institute (PJI), said the meeting room for the public session earlier this week was overcrowded with angry parents.

"Nowhere at anytime did it give any protection for children being bullied because of their faith, their religion, their size, their race, ethnicity," he points out. "It is only going to give this special anti-bullying protection for homosexuals and transsexuals."

Dacus said an attorney from PJI spoke before the board meeting. "And (the attorney) made it very clear that this is an abridgement and an affront to the neutral role that school districts are supposed to play in respecting the rights of parents and not to engage in such overt and open indoctrination and mandatory acceptance of such controversial, immoral lifestyles," he concludes.

Parents cannot opt out their children from the curriculum. Dacus says it is important to remember that the children are kindergarten age, and many cannot even write their names -- yet they are being taught that homosexuality is an acceptable lifestyle.

2. I had the same feeling about it.
Fortunately for us, the bluenoses always make themselves so thoroughly unlikeable that their idiotic dogma is always spurned right along with them.

If they want to raise their children to be good little right wing hate bots, they need to put the time and effort into homeschooling or pony up for some misanthropic bible school that will do the job for them.

The rest of us are sick to death of them.
