Aggressively serene!
Not really...
That's what you just said.
The accommodation in this case was the school apparently allowed students to be called by preferred pronouns if they wished
That's controlling speech.

It really isn't....no more than allowing Charles to be called Chuck is.That's what you just said.

I didn't. I was referring to the idea that accommodations for pronoun use constitutes "controlling speech."It is...stop conflating two unlike things.
Neither does using a student's preferred pronouns.This is your pathetic attempt at conflating. Calling someone "Chuck" doesn't require altering all of English grammar.

Yeah, I read the judge's ruling too.It's controlling speech.
I don't recall ever saying they were.It does...ze/zir aren't real words.
Yeah
I don't recall ever saying they were.
That the judge ruled the way he did? Sure.Glad we agree.
Sure it is. One pronoun is preferred over another, one name is preferred over another. Very similar. Easily comparable.Then it's not remotely similar to a nickname.
Well, at least you're finally admitting you're just playing a game.Thanks for playing.
I'm enjoying your well put and reasoned arguments. You have far more patience and tolerance than I do. Great job!Glad we agree.

Where does this end?
No, because a "martian" identity would not directly challenge traditional views on human sexuality and gender conformity. Nothing to do with sex at all, really, so nothing to do with conservative religion--which seems to be about nothing else.Where does this end? If a student insists on a Martian identity, is a teacher being religious for insisting on an earth identity only?
I am speaking in generality indirectly to the immediate topic.
Unlike liberal theology that is accepting and accommodating of every sexual perversion trotted out into the public purview. Why not just stick to the topic as posted? There is plenty of opportunity for you to get embarrassed there.No, because a "martian" identity would not directly challenge traditional views on human sexuality and gender conformity.

I don't know. It was Lukaris who asked the question.Unlike liberal theology that is accepting and accommodating of every sexual perversion trotted out into the public purview. Why not just stick to the topic as posted?

Yeah, I read the report. We all know that her faith is sacrosanct. Everyone else: back of the bus, you!That the student has no right to control the speech of the teacher.
I know what a pronoun is, thanks.Pronouns-any of a small set of words (such as I, she, he, you, it, we, or they) in a language that are used as substitutes for nouns or noun phrases and whose referents are named or understood in the context
Name-word or phrase that constitutes the distinctive designation of a person or thing
They may both refer to someone, but names are distinctive, pronouns are not....no matter how hard trans people want them to be.
I use the comparison of preferred pronouns to nicknames because it's apt.One of us is....there's a reason why you have to keep referring nicknames as if they have anything to do with this case.
Neither does using a student's preferred pronoun.They don't. In fact, the teacher may be using nicknames for multiple students in her various classes. This doesn't require belief in magical non-existent genders nor any reimagining of the English language for made up pronouns.
I never conflated the two. I compared them.Without this pathetic attempt at conflating pronouns and nicknames....you're done.
Yeah, you always say that when you're unable to counter my arguments.You've got nothing left.
Yeah, I probably should stop bringing up comparable situations, since they seem to utterly confuse you.This isn't about nicknames. They aren't part of the case. Stick to the topic.
Oops....you forgot to include citations where you quote actual people who have specifically advocated for exactly those things.For the trans activists that genuinely believe in the ideology...
1. In the complete dissolution of the nuclear family.
2. The normalization of all sexual preferences and identities including things like pederasty and inappropriate behavior with animals.
When it comes to liberal theology it most certainly is.You mean it's not about sex?
It depends on which meaning of sex you are referring to. In THIS topic it's about biological sex and not the act of sex. Where you referring to biological sex as a gender or were you referring to sex as in intercourse?You mean it's not about sex?
