I have no issue with someone being homosexual, it doesn't impact me any more than my heterosexuality impacts them. I'd rather my daughter be in a happy, healthy relationship regardless of the sex of the other person than many women that I see with their physically and mentally abusive "men."

However, the dual standard that exists in today's world (this hasn't suddenly appeared upon us) is beyond appalling. We can't discuss God but we can discuss any other diety? What would happen if you had an "It's okay to be straight" day? Our kids are being taught more about being gay, alternative this and that, and yet don't know who men like Washington, Jefferson, and Franklin were and what they did for our country.

Silly me, I was raised to judge each person individually based on how they treated not only me but those around me. Color, religion, sexual orientation... whatever, it didn't matter. Were they a "good" person by my morals and ethics and the values and laws of society?

So, because a large part of our society wasn't infused with values or morals our tax dollars are funding this crap? Hell, I was uncomfortable attending sex ed in school. Wasn't that what my parents were supposed to teach me, not some nurse that we'd see once or twice?

I must be a dinosaur at 31. I remember when schools taught math, language, and sciences; my parents provided the rest and had no reservations about being accountable for their actions and the boys turned men that they raised.

When's the next ice age?
