America’s largest teachers union is run by radical, pro-gay extremists. Here’s proof

Image
They're ba-a-ack. The NEA (National Education Association) just held its annual meeting with policy actions that once again border on sedition and lunacy. But maybe it's desperation. Justice-minded teachers and parents cheered at the recent Janus U.S. Supreme Court decision , knowing that it will likely end compulsory union fees charged by the National Education Association. The powerful far-left NEA is likely to lose at least 10% or more of its members as teachers no longer have to fork over fees to the union to get a job, and thereby financially support Democratic Party candidates as well as anti-life and anti-family issues. The decision is a huge win for First Amendment-lovers, conservatives, and non-radical teachers, those who mostly remained silent in recent years as "LGBTQ" and pro-abortion agendas tyrannized many public schools. The NEA muscle is one of the biggest reasons for this corruption of truth. Maybe the unions' dominance will lessen as its bl...

Religious freedom watchdog slams Florida school for ‘bullying’ students with LGBT propaganda

Image
A 14-year-old male eighth grader at Tavares Middle School in Lake County, Florida brought home a printed note last Friday, given to him by his teacher , encouraging him to participate in the “ Day of Silence .” GLSEN, which stands for the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network , designated Friday, April 27 as “a student-led national event where folks take a vow of silence to highlight the silencing and erasure of LGBTQ people at school.” Some of the GLSEN coercion includes allowing students “supportive” of “Day of Silence” to refrain from verbal participation in classroom instruction, while those who do not participate in “Day of Silence” must prepare to answer class questions. The middle school student ’s note from his teacher read:  “I’m staying silent on GLSEN’s Day of Silence. It’s a national youth movement highlighting the silencing and erasure of LGBTQ people at school. Nearly 4 in 5 LGBTQ students don’t see positive LGBTQ representation in their curriculu...

Queering Education: it gets worse!

Image
June 10, 2013 ( Mercatornet.com ) - The logic works like this: If homosexual acts are moral, as so many now insist, then they should be normative. If they are normative, they should be taught in our schools as a standard. If they are a standard, they should be enforced. And so it has come, and is coming, to be. Education is an essential part of the drive to universalize the rationalization for homosexual behavior; so it must become a mandatory part of the curriculum. The infiltration of higher education by LGBT studies is well known. However, less attention seems to have been paid to the effort to spread LGBT propaganda in elementary schools and high schools. Because of the young ages of students K through 12, the introduction of pro-homosexual materials has required a special sensitivity from those who are trying to get away with it. They must avoid the explicit nature of the LGBT courses offered at the college level and disguise the effort in terms of something other t...

Judges reject lawsuit and nix restraining order by gay sex offender against pro-family group

Image
December 6, 2012 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) - A federal judge  has recommend  the dismissal of a one million dollar lawsuit filed by homosexual activist and convicted sex offender Adam Flanders against the Massachussetts pro-family organization MassResistance and its president, Brian Camenker. The lawsuit was filed in response to MassResistance’s publication of a  public letter  written by Flanders in 2007 and sent to at least two organizations, which was also published by a local newspaper, on whose website the  letter still appears .  The letter claimed to expose sexual improprieties and abuses attributed to adult leaders of a homosexual youth group in his town, and spoke of Flanders’ own sexual interactions with minors after he had reached the age of 18. Flanders was later convicted of sexual abuse of a minor in a different case, for which he is on the Maine sex offender registry.  He was also convicted of assaulting one of the boys with whom he...

Christian compassion requires the truth about harms of homosexuality

Image
By Tony Perkins The media has recently been filled with reports of several recent suicides by teenagers who are reported to have been victims of "anti-gay" bullying. Some homosexual activist groups lay blame at the feet of conservative Christians who teach that homosexual conduct is wrong, as well as pro-family groups such as Family Research Council which oppose elements of the homosexual political agenda, such as same-sex "marriage." The Christians and pro-family leaders I know are unanimous in believing that no person, especially a child, should be subjected to verbal or physical harassment or violence--whether because of their sexuality, their religious beliefs, or for any other reason. Such bullying violates the Christian 's obligation to love our neighbor as we love ourselves, and receives no support from the pro-family political movement. Where bullying has occurred, the blame should be placed on the bullies themselves--not on organizations within soc...

Homosexual agenda forced upon lower primary

Image
Cover of Uncle Bobby's Wedding Erie, Illinois is a small, rural town of 1,600 residents in western Illinois , just across the border from Davenport, Iowa...not exactly where you'd expect to find a national controversy brewing over pro- gay marriage school curriculum . It all started when concerned parents in Erie, Illinois got word of plans for a new curriculum (even in a MATH class!) teaching their children as young as 4 years old about same-sex marriage and cross-dressing . Listening to the parents' concerns, the Erie school board voted 5-2 to reject the curriculum introduced by the Gay, Straight, Lesbian Education Network ( GLSEN ). But it didn't end there...now GLSEN has launched a national campaign to pressure the Erie school board into imposing its "Ready, Set, Respect!" curriculum over the objection of parents and taxpayers. Please take 2 minutes to send the Erie School Board a message thanking them for respecting the rights of parents, and urgi...

Image
Image via Wikipedia A top anti “gay bullying” organization has been awarded a long-term grant to to establish “safe spaces” in public schools across America days after the group’s founder left the Obama administration. The Division of Adolescent and School Health of the U.S. government’s Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has awarded a five-year, $285,000 a year grant to the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network ( GLSEN ), the gay rights group  announced  in June as reported by World Net Daily . GLSEN’s founder is former Obama administration “Safe Schools” Czar Kevin Jennings , who resigned only days before the announced grant to head Be the Change, another national gay rights initiative. Jennings came under major fire from conservative groups and lawmakers for his  participation  in GLSEN’s lewd youth programs, including explanations of dangerous homosexual sex acts such as “fisting.” GLSEN in April was involved in a Facebook scandal involving its homose...
