Ready and willing like gay/lesbian parentsIt was for years both, but now we are forbidden.
You want to destroy any hope of a nation that would attempt to ensure to as many kids as possible that anyone who has children should be ready willing and able to care for them.
That is simply untrue. I don't speak for the school, but that is simply untrue," he said. "He was invited to come in, he came in, there was a dialogue going back and forth, there were faxes sent back and forth, from the school to the school committee. His intent was absolutely not to be arrested. His intent was to establish a dialogue to protect his own children and other children as well."
Mass resistance went there and picked up a pamphlet and went on to make all sorts of false claims from there
your say...You try to claim others are presenting strawman arguments (when they are not) but then you go and produce one yourself. The poster said nothing of the sort and it is dishonest of you to try to claim she did
Not according to the APA
Lets see. The worldnutdaily verses the Boston Globe. Hmmm which one is actually credible?
The rest prove nothing as I appreciate the "research" in finding the slanted reports... it is useless though as the ones "presenting" their "stories" as as slanted...
As was shown Mass resistance is the one lyingAlso the fact he lost proves that the information is slanted? ....what a hoax. It merely proves parents are not in control of their children's education no more...or their faith.. There is no seperation between teaching moral issues and plain facts.
The moral decision to reject lying about who one is and the moral decision to reject self hatredLiving a homosexual lifestyle is a choice not a fact. You live it because you make a moral decision.
Why would you want to teach my children false statements about gays and lesbians?Why would you want to "educate" my kid about making moral decision making that belongs to the Church...Get over it... move on and leave the issues of moral formation to parents and their faith. Just like trying to teach atheists what "sin" is. It would be unfair and also irrelevant to their beliefs...
so what there is freedom of expression here in this country i last checked... That hardly proves anything... so what was your point again ...
Why did you put the link up? Did you just assume no one would check the facts and present facts showing the claims made were false?And BTW I did not put up the link to bring forth all these...You though went and cut and pasted all "polemics" against those claims... Bravo still though proves nothing.
Did she make the quote Mass resistance is claming she did? No she did not.And you can go on and on with the twisting facts about this :
read it again :
TOVIA SMITH: But many teachers say they're less afraid now since the high court decision legalizing gay marriage. Deb Allen teaches eighth-grade sex ed in Brookline. She keeps a picture of her lesbian partner and their kids on her desk and gay equality signs on the wall. Allen says she's already been teaching a gay-friendly curriculum for nearly a decade, but she says she does begin this year feeling a bit more emboldened
Mass resistance did lieNo the site is not lying
So when Mass Resistance falsely claimed that Judge Wolf ruled: the school has a duty to normalize homosexual relationships to children was that just a misquote?teahers do teach openly through example that they bring to school... Maybe it is a misquote about the student but reading more you can see they are true to what they claim...
Yes it is sad for the truth when les like the ones Mass Resistance are presenting are defendedSad for truth to be twisted to present false ideas of the same text...
Sexual orientation is an enduring emotional, romantic, sexual, or affectional attraction toward others. It is easily distinguished from other components of sexuality including biological sex, gender identity (the psychological sense of being male or female), and the social gender role (adherence to cultural norms for feminine and masculine behavior).Yes, according to the APA.
Evidence?
Would be very interesting to read as all the actual published evidence shows that the children of same gendered parents are happy, healthy and well adjusted and no different from their heterosexually raised peers and the evidence shows they remains so well into adulthood.
Same thing was said about interracial marriage
'It's just a quarrel;' some states offer no domestic violence protection to gays
Article Abstract:
The legal system is just starting to acknowledge domestic violence in the gay and lesbian communities. The San Francisco-based National Coalition of Anti-Violence Programs, made up of 25 advocacy groups for gays and lesbians, states that the type and prevalence of homosexual domestic violence reflects heterosexual violence of the same kind. According to the coalition, however, gays and lesbians are protected less than other victims of violence. Moreover, the sodomy laws of 21 states may discourage the reporting of same-sex domestic violence.

Gay Domestic ViolenceSeven states define domestic violence in a way that excludes same-sex victims; 21 states have sodomy laws that may require same-sex victims to confess to a crime in order to prove they are in a domestic relationship.

Why would you want to teach my children false statements about gays and lesbians?
My friend, I believe in Jesus. Do you not understand? I am not an idiot.
You are threatening things that I hold to be exceedingly important on incredibly flimsy evidence, and continuing in an anti-Christian tradition that stretches back to Marx and Engel, and probably well beyond if I knew enough of their underlying philosophy to judge.
Part of behavior is thought.
If a person has homosexual thought patterns, that is still a behavior.
That's the whole point. I have never argued that is not possible, though none of you have proven it and there are studies that call it into question.
If you are sitting doing sums in your head, are you not exhibiting a behavior?
One does not have a black orientation or a female or male orientation. Orientations are specific to behavior.
That is why you are wrong, and part of why I mistrust gays and bis so deeply. It seems the longer you discuss things with them, the more tortured the logic gets with some. They exhibit a need to be accepted and no concept of why they are not, so they lash out at people for no reason and try to change the meanings of things to rationalize their own positions.
This is the same pattern I see with socialists, whose main motive strangely seems to be disgust with religion. They cannot fathom why so many people believe in it, and they convince themselves that it is illogical, yet clearly it is not.
I mistrust pretty much any identifiable group for whom I find it difficult to even have a simple, straight forward conversation. It speaks to motives that are not grounded in truth.
I was very live and let live about the general subject of homosexuality, and in all honesty I still do not say I dislike individual homosexuals. Heck most times unless they tell you you can't tell anyhow (as opposed to race or gender.....). But the topic has been politically charged now and we are forced to take sides, and the longer the assault on decency goes, the less sympathy I have.
Lets compare the claims of Mass Resistance to thisIs there a pat little defense for this one?
GLSEN Conference and Little Black Book
Explicit pamphlets displayed at school - The Boston Globe
So you have absolutely no evidence to back up your claim about same gendered couples being parentswithout any 2nd and 3rd generation data easy to prove isn't it? The hard part is to see how well these familes do with domestic violence
also why would they need these laws...(also calling it sodomy!!!) if the homosexual couples were such a tranquil and harmonious couples?
Abstracts: Final reckoning: states allow victims' families to watch executions. 'It's just a quarrel;' some states offer no domestic violence protection to gays
This has nothing to do with your unsupported claim about same gendered couples being parentswhy do they "reflect the heterosexual marriage"? Is that again a card blank for being such a "successful life style" as the supporters of such life style claim it to be?
And do not bother finding claims in that site to "poison the well" I am only quoting what I need I am not saying all that site claims to be true it will be a waste of your time.
Lets see. The worldnutdaily verses the Boston Globe. Hmmm which one is actually credible?
So are you changing your earlier statement that it is not OK to lie about a minority so long as one can claim they arent lies .just slanted?
As was shown Mass resistance is the one lying
The moral decision to reject lying about who one is and the moral decision to reject self hatred
Why would you want to teach my children false statements about gays and lesbians?
So you are saying it is moral for Mass resistance to blatantly lie?
Is that what you are teaching your children?
Why did you put the link up? Did you just assume no one would check the facts and present facts showing the claims made were false?
Did she make the quote Mass resistance is claming she did? No she did not.
Mass resistance did lie
It lied about the reason Parker was arrested
It lied about the Lexington school district
It lied about the quote it produced
It lied about literature being distributed to students
It lied about school assmeblies
It lied about the court ruling
So when Mass Resistance falsely claimed that Judge Wolf ruled: the school has a duty to normalize homosexual relationships to children was that just a misquote?
Yes it is sad for the truth when les like the ones Mass Resistance are presenting are defended
Lets compare the claims of Mass Resistance to this
Mass Resistance claims: At my own children's high school there was a school-wide assembly to celebrate same-sex marriage in early December, 2003. It featured an array of speakers, including teachers at the school who announced that they would be marrying their same-sex partners and starting families either through adoption or artificial insemination. Literature on same-sex marriage how it is now a normal part of society was handed out to the students.
Mass Resistance claim: the year is 2003
What you are trying to pass off: the year is 2005
Mass Resistance claim: a school wide assembly to celebrate same sex marriage
What you are trying to pass off: no mythical assembly
Mass Resistance claim: teachers announcing their own same gendered marriage
What you are trying to pass off: no teachers at any mythical assembly announcing any impending nuptials
Mass Resistance claim: Literature on same-sex marriage how it is now a normal part of society was handed out to the students.
What you are trying to pass off: 10 copies of a pamphlet describing the ways HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases can be prevented and spread.
Mass Resistance claim: was handed out to the students.
What you are trying to pass off: actual copies going to any student: Zero
Someone, somewhere, this very minute, is doing something stupid.
