Jordan Peterson urges parents to fight radical sex ed: It’s ‘a form of indoctrination’

Image
Schools are pushing Ontario 's sex ed curriculum on students in a “completely reprehensible” way,  Dr. Jordan Peterson  said in an interview with parental rights advocate Tanya Granic Allen, who is running to be the leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario . If parents don’t approve of what their children are being taught at school, then “don’t send them to the classes,” Peterson said forcefully. “Keep them at home,” he suggested. “And take the consequences.” Peterson said so many parents oppose the graphic sex ed program that the small group behind it won’t be able to do much. Parents who refuse to let their children be subjected to the program launched by Kathleen Wynne 's Liberal government “may find that you have a lot more support than you think.” “If you don’t stand your ground, then all that happens is people push you backwards,” he said. “If you wanna be pushed backwards, then go along with it.” Parents “have to decide what’s impor

Boy Scouts formalizes policy allowing openly gay leaders - would you as a parent trust your sons to a homosexual?

The Boy Scouts of America took the final step Monday in lifting its ban on Scout leaders who openly profess homosexuality – but many gay activists decried the change for not going far enough. The BSA executive committee  passed a resolution  to lift the ban two weeks ago.  On Monday, July 27, the National Executive Board  ratified the decision , with 79% of the board's 80 members agreeing. The shift in policy incurred lukewarm approval from homosexual activists, with many expressing disapproval of the policy’s religious exemption clause. Gary Signorile, the editor-at-large for the  Huffington Post 's "Gay Voices" site,  blasted  the BSA's provision allowing individual chapters to cleave to their consciences on the matter of same-sex-attracted Scout leaders. "By allowing the religious-affiliated troops to still ban gay adults," Signorile wrote, "the BSA is making a religious exemption seem like a reasonable compromise when in fact it i

6-year-old ‘transgender’ boy must be allowed to use girls’ bathroom: Colorado officials

DENVER, CO , June 25, 2013 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – A Colorado governing body has ruled that a 6-year old boy, who his parents claims is ‘ transgender ,’ was discriminated against when officials at his elementary school prohibited him from using the girls ’ restroom . In 2011, when Coy Mathis started elementary school, his family and school agreed to treat Coy as a girl and let him use the girls’ restroom.  However, the school decided to ban Coy from his continued use of the girls’ facilities this past winter break.  The reason for the school’s change has not been made public. Parents of the six-year-old boy filed a complaint with The Colorado Division of Civil Rights in February. On June 18, the board’s director, Steven Chavez, issued his ruling, in which he said the school’s actions were reminiscent of the pre-civil rights movement segregation attitude of “separate but equal,” and thus Mathis’s rights had been violated.  Coy Mathis before his parents began dressing him

ACLU sues to force elementary libraries to display lesbian advocacy book

FARMINGTON, UT , November 15, 2012, ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – The ACLU has  filed a lawsuit  to force a Utah school district to keep a lesbian advocacy book on elementary school library shelves. The ACLU believes kindergarten-age children deserve access to this book. In the Davis School District in Utah, children as young as kindergarten age can check out a homosexual propaganda book called  In My Mothers’ House , about three adopted kids and their lesbian “mothers,” if their parents sign a permission slip. The book was removed from shelves after another Windridge mother complained to school officials when her kindergartner brought it home. It is presently kept behind the counter. This minor obstacle motivated the ACLU to seeking to force the school district to put the book back on its library shelves, making it available to all children without restriction. The only person participating in the “class action” lawsuit is Tina Weber, whose children are enrolled at Windri

Image via Wikipedia A recent poll released by Wenzel Strategies and World Net Daily indicates that a large majority of Americans – 65 percent – do not approve of gay-affirmative lessons in grade schools . The poll was conducted for World Net Daily by the public-opinion and media consulting company Wenzel Strategies.   The telephone survey conducted April 19-21 asked the question: “Do you believe elementary school children should be taught that homosexuality is a normal alternative lifestyle?” Only 22 percent of respondents said they believe such teaching would be right, while another 13 percent said they were unsure.  The vast majority – 65 percent – said they do not approve of such teaching. “Whether they object on moral grounds or simply out of concern that many U.S. schools are failing in their core missions of teaching basics doesn’t really matter – the vast majority of American adults want this type of curriculum kept out of the classroom,” Wenzel chief Fritz Wenzel said. “
