No it isn’t. Pretending these issues surrounding sex and gender aren’t moral issues is simply a lie. We all know there are sensitive topics best left to the parents to introduce according to their own value system. We live in a multicultural society and you’re going to have to learn to tolerate other people’s beliefs. If you want to raise your child in a pride focused home, go for it. But devout Muslims and Hindus don’t have to agree to that without being labeled haters. You want to know why the tide has turned? Because the tolerance over the past five years only seemed to be going one way. The cake baker, Lia Thomas and this school opt out case ate all the samples. |
OP here - agree. I don’t care if a word problem says Dan and Matt have $50 to spend on gas to get them to Philly for their nephews bar mitzvah. It costs $6 a gallon. How much will it cost to get there? That doesn’t require a sexuality discussion. It’s just what you might see in society. It’s a fact. |
Yawn. Here's what your supposedly "moral" people are doing: https://minnesotareformer.com/2025/06/17/vance-boelter-voted-in-2024-minnesota-republican-presidential-primary-records-show/ |
The teachers were indoctrinating but they aren’t gay. Just liberal. |
Did you forget about the Shapiro arsonist, the Scalise shooting, the Nashville trans killer? |
But that wasn’t what was happening in the case decided today. Maryland teachers were specifically told to disagree with a child who said marriage is between a man and a woman, and to respond to a cult who says “a boy can’t become a girl” that the comment is “hurtful.” They are told to say that when a baby is born, “people make a guess about our gender.” Those are specific unscientific, moral claims at odds with parental beliefs and no different constitutionally than a teacher saying a child should accept Jesus. |
^ Child not cult, ugh, typing on my phone! |
The GOP has made our every day life absurd. We are supposed to go along with their actions to make our government an autocracy. We are supposed to accept constant obvious lies. But I’m supposed to give two sh*ts about a book about a trans kid. OH the sky is falling. Such misplaced priorities. FFS. |
To me, the practice of religion is a moral issue should be kept private. I don’t want to hear about your Easter, your Yom Kippur, your Eid, your Diwali, your any of it. I don’t want to hear about your church, your beliefs, or prayers, or any of the fairy tales you believe in. Keep your hate in your home. When you go out into civil society, you behave like a human. |
No, what you are hearing is that teachers were not reinforcing Stone Age fairy tale nonsense. In America, marriage is NOT exclusively between man and a woman. In America, we recognize that trans people exist, because God made them. We recognize that gender is a made up concept that varies over place and time. Your “facts” are actually opinions, and you’re not entitled to have them validated at every step of your life journey in America. Pray on it. |
NP. This is unintentionally hilarious because religious practice itself is deeply human and widespread across cultures. Also, so typical for someone who subscribes to the secular progressive religion to characterize other religions as "hate." |
There goes the projection again. It’s all the religious conservatives know. What normal human would actually believe the nonsense spewed by most religions unless they were indoctrinated hard and young? Indoctrination is all they have when they’re certainly not winning on intelligence and reason. |
They don’t hate them. They don’t care. Stop reading the NYT and WashPo. |
I agree that they are all opinions! That’s why teachers have no business contradicting the child and family’s beliefs. |
Amen. We live in a pluralistic society and that goes both ways. |
