. I disagree as Christians can’t FORCE anyone to believe anything they don’t want to believe. As such I ask what do you think is happening by the following’
Homosexuality is being promoted in many of the public schools of America, and the homosexual agenda has the blessing of the highest levels of the National Education Association (NEA). NEA President Robert Chase gave the keynote address at the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) conference in Arlington Heights, Illinois, this month (‘Homosexual convention targets grade-school kids,’ WorldNetDaily, Oct. 11, 2000). The GLSEN promotes homosexuality in schools by propagandizing teachers and school officials, providing materials, and establishing homosexual student clubs called Gay-Straight Alliances. There are currently over 700 of these in high schools and middle schools. (The Newton North High School in Newton, Massachusetts, recently celebrated ‘Bisexual Awareness Day.’) GLSEN is also targeting elementary schools and kindergartens. GLSEN also pressures school officials to stop sponsoring the Boy Scouts, because of the organization’s common-sense ban on homosexual sco
One of the books distributed by GLSEN is ‘Celebrating Families,’ featuring lesbian mothers with adopted daughters. The GLSEN-distributed movie ‘That’s a Family’ depicts homosexual couples as normal, healthy ‘families.’ The proposed lesson plan for grades 4-6 describes anti-homosexual thinking as persecution and compares it with Christians who are persecuted for their faith.
A ‘Visitor’s Companion’ distributed at the GLSEN conference advertised homosexual bars and sex clubs in the Chicago area.
One of the seminars taught public school teachers how to ‘come out of the closet’ and declare their homosexuality to the students and faculty.
Another seminar was titled ‘Responding to the Right Wing.’ The leader of the seminar, Barbara Miner, expressed fear of school vouchers, because ‘vouchers and private schools will do an end-run around 20 to 30 years of rights gains.’ These homosexual activists know that the average person is against them and the only way they can gain power is by using the government-controlled education monopoly and the decree of ungodly judges who subvert the constitution.
NEA President Robert Chase told the conference he did not care what ‘right wing’ Christians think about his support of the homosexual agenda. The Family Research Council had launched a campaign urging people to write to Chase to discourage him from attending the conference, but Chase laughed about it and said he was happy they ‘are coming after me.’
