Civil Rights Law Protects L.G.B.T. Workers, Supreme Court Rules

Because buying or eating an apple doesn't involve exposure to human sexuality without a fully developed frontal cortex, nor does it involve chronic indoctrination.

I don't understand what point you are making here.

What has this got to do with discriminating against employees or customers?
If a woman teacher is teaching maths according to the curriculum to her students, what does it matter if she is a solo mum, or if her husband has had a prior divorce, or if she is in a relationship with another woman. The kids don't need to know any of that stuff and it doesn't affect her ability to teach math.
She has the right to employment.

If they were teaching in a Christian school using Abeka texts even the math books and lessons have scripture written in them.

isn't a religious based school the very definition of chronic indoctrination?

 

[FireDragon76]

It's about time for some good news.

I've noticed that often when a justice is safe from political striving, they vote according to what they really think the constitution is saying. Even Kavanaugh voted in a way that surprised me sometime in the last 6 months. This is at least the 2nd time Gorsuch voted in a way I agree with; John Roberts has done it a number of times.

Of course, there is a liberal or two and a conservative or two that never surprise, but that some of them can be swayed by, apparently, reasoned arguments makes me think that SCOTUS is the best thing the founders did.

I think they voted more along age and social lines this time.

 

[Quartermaine]

its a big step forward for civil rights

Sounds like an argument for requiring public school teachers to practice celibacy.

Or is is only "exposure to human sexuality" when the teacher is one of the gays?

I admire the courage of the Muslim community to stand up and speak out against things they find to be inappropriate for their children. We Christians should take note.

Heterosexual teachers usually aren't bringing their sexuality into a classroom, or even their private lives for that matter.

No. We should forbid teachers from giving any indication they might be married. For example, no teacher should be allowed to wear a wedding ring in class in case that gives the wrong idea. Nor be addressed using titles like Mrs or Miss. And any female teacher who mentions she has a husband or children should be fired on the spot.

Oh wait, no, no one cares if straight teachers talk about their sexuality like that. It is only a big deal if the wrong type of minority does it.

We always addressed our female teachers as Ms. growing up, whether they were married or not. I know you're an atheist, but have you read Romans 1?

We'll see how this plays out in America. I'll just send my kids to private school.

Ah yes, the teacher who had the temerity to mention her private life in a way that would be a non-issue had she been talking bout her male spouse to be. I recall a long thread here hemming and hawing about how that was different because reasons.

Yes, you wouldn't want them to find out about LGBT lest they decided that's what they wanted to be when they grew up.

I want my kids educated rather than fed propaganda and indoctrinated into degeneracy. This isn't just LBGT issues, but the promotion of heterosexual immorality is rampant, including easy divorce. My wife and I are ultimately responsible for our children, whom God has made us stewards over. We must raise them to know Him, love Him, and therefore adhere to God's Will and moral law/objectivity.

LGBTQ+ sex ed will be compulsory from September 2020 - here's what it'll mean

lets see: "The curriculum for secondary schools will include different sexual orientations and gender identities, sexual relationships, consent and respect."

and
"The Relationship Education being introduced to primary schools is different. ...Teachers will talk to primary school pupils in an age-appropriate way about the features of healthy friendships, family relationships and other relationships they are likely to encounter. This may include LGBTQ+ families."

Wow how horrible.

How can people teach their kids lies about "recruitment" if the schools go ahead and present the truth?

how many straight teachers loose their jobs for mentioning their husband/wife? Or is it only about sex when a gay teacher mentions that they are married?

it's more than that

The article paraphrases the statement saying, "the statement said Bailey was not suspended over her request to include LGBTQ language in the district's non-discrimination policy, but rather due to the district's concern that Bailey 'insists that it is her right and that it is age appropriate for her to have ongoing discussions with elementary-aged students about her own sexual orientation, the sexual orientation of artists, and their relationships with other gay artists.'"

Propaganda as in normalization, promotion, and advocacy.

Example:

‘Mr Moffat is running what’s called CHIPS – challenging homophobia in primary schools – and it’s totally against Islamic beliefs. My child came home and told me am I OK to be a boy? It’s confusing children about sexuality.

Muslim parents protest gay teacher who 'over-promotes LGBT values' | Metro News

Children need to be in moral surroundings, taught moral values, and engaged without sexual confusion. If a student happens to be gay, then that student need not be discriminated against by the teacher or administration. After all, they're people too and deserving of fair and equal protections under the law. Yet, we see we're moving past "anti-discrimination" and into promotion very quickly.

as far as I can tell from what you've pointed to, she showed a photo of her with her wife. there's no sign that she did more than mention that she was her wife. I would expect that the recent Supreme Court decision would make that clearly legal. the standard for Title Vii is "but for.". that is, if the same thing would have been legal for a male, the school is in trouble. they will now have to accept it or make any pictures of or reference to a spouse a violation. some schools are sufficiently dedicated that I think they might do that. after all we had people advocating the abolition of marriage because gays could do it. I just hope no one outside Christianity blames this insanity on us.
