Honestly, I really don’t care. I was not trying to wade into the morality of the issue. I was not trying to cast stones or label who threw the first. I don’t care. But this issue that you all are having is not going to go away if we all agreed on homosexual curriculum. There will always be another issue to educate someone else’s kids about. Some other state of federal mandate for some other tertiary or even core issue. The real difference, the more basic disagreement, is one of control. How much do we want the federal or state government to politicize our child’s education? The very same people who were railing against Intelligent Design (no I do not wish to open this can of worms either) as not fit for schools are now in favor of gay sensitivity training. Their position has changed because the subject matter has changed.

If you can not admit that you want to teach other people’s kids your own worldview, then this discussion is pointless. The corollary here is that you also want to drown out other people’s world views in the process. This is absurd, and this game will never end. If you want the government to have this level of control, one day you will find yourself in the minority, with your tax dollars getting siphoned off in huge amounts to support things you find offensive. And that too is wrong!

I thought this article described the whole situation perfectly. In a way, I too admire the trump, for no other reason than making everyone else look so stupid. He does it with such a panache!

Shadowfax…

Is the “not for profit” tax break for churches and religious charities in violation of the establishment clause? Are they getting a a special “revenue reduction?”

Federal and state tax money goes to religious organizations all the time. That in and of itself does not violate the establishment clause.
