They just don't get it.

If the board disappeared from view for an hour, it is just because we changed our provider of domain name services. Look for the all-new eye95.com, coming soon. This board will become a subfeature of that site.

They just don't get it.; It has zero to do with "age appropriate"

Teacher forces students to sign "gay pledge." The administrators don't get it. The problem is not that the pledge is "age inappropriate." The problem is that the pledge is for many "moral inappropriate," and some teacher is ramming her morals down the collective throats of her students. Parents must retain the right to teach their children that the Christian religion explicitly teaches that homosexual behavior is a sin. And, while no one needs to be ugly to an individual about it, neither should anyone be forced to sign a pledge of "support" for those who choose to live that lifestyle. If a teacher forced an 18-year old child (not just a kindergartner) of mine to sign such a pledge (or even indicated that signing it was the moral thing to do without granting any child the opportunity to express otherwise if he so chose), I'd be at the school in a shot demanding that the teacher be disciplined. But, this pledge is a tenet of the new secular religion that is rising in America, the religion that is becoming the official religion that the Constitution forbids, the religion that is espoused by those who claim to support separation of church and state. So, to some, it is acceptable--no, not just "acceptable," but "required"--indoctrination in public schools. They just don't get that some in this nation still practice religion founded in the actual words in the Bible and that our Constitution protects their right to do so--without governmental interference.
