Children Should Not Be Kept Ignorant

A federal judge in Boston has dismissed a suit by two families who wanted to stop a Massachusetts town and its public school system from teaching their children about gay marriage, court documents show.

Oh God forbid we teach our children about gay relationships, God forbid they should become accepting of homosexuality, God forbid we don't keep reality from them so we can teach them the hatred and bigotry that we believe.

I am so sick of people saying if we teach our children to accept homosexuality, then they will try it and become gay. Can we be anymore ignorant. Oh, and don't argue with me that to teach our children about homosexuality violates your religious beliefs. Religion doesn't teach ignorance, if you disagree with what the schools are teaching your kids, you have every right to teach them your ideas in the comfort of your own home. If they don't side with you, that's their prerogative, not the school's fault and not society's fault.

Our government (through which our schools are funded) does not endorse religious beliefs, and that includes the Christian belief that homosexuality is wrong. If you believe otherwise, teach your children in your home...or send them to Christian schools.

Religious freedom does not mean we can legislate religion to MAKE YOU happy
