Is it really necessary for a test question to refer to Romeo and Juliet's sexuality? What would that test question be? "Do you think that the relationship between Romeo and Juliet was romantic? Why or why not?" "Do you think that Romeo and Juliet actually consummated their marriage before the opening of Act 3, Scene 5? Why or why not?" Any reasonable person's answer to these questions would be, "Yes, duh."

And no, I'm pretty sure that I did not vote for policies for not firing teachers who are child abusers. "Progressive" does not mean, "It's ok for anybody to do anything, yay!"

And really, homosexuality is not something you believe in or don't believe in, like Santa Claus or the tooth fairy. Gay people actually, really exist, for real. I personally have known many, many gay people in my life. You probably have too.[/quote]

Pretty sure ?  Or positively sure. If people didn't , how was that teacher with a known record kept on to molest yet another child?[/quote]

Yes, I am certain that I did not vote for policies for not firing teachers who are child abusers.

I marvel at your conclusion that the only possible reason for why MCPS didn't fire a teacher with a known record of child abuse is that progressive parents thought it was just fine and dandy to have child abusers teaching in the public schools.

What is the reason for why the Catholic church didn't fire a Catholic priest with a known record of child abuse? Because parishioners thought it was just fine and dandy to have child abusers in their churches?

Note that whether or not tax dollars go to the Catholic church is completely irrelevant here. The question is, why didn't an organization fire a child abuser.[/quote]
