How is it, it's allowed for an agenda any agenda to become so prominent when it's such a small segment of the overall population?
At some point doesn't the "movement" usurp equality for all?
There are loads of other issues and educational agendas with real-world applications that teach all kids how to live in the real world.
Most of my generation wasn't subjected to homosexuality till high school or college, yet most people I know have a live-and-let-live attitude.
It's indoctrination in the same mold as having military speakers talk about America living in its last 1000 days, circa 1979 at a school assembly. I don't recall much but we had a teacher who didn't like it all, LOL
While Im very pro-military even then, it DID FEEL so over the top and was essentially feeding students the completely wrong information and conclusions in hindsight. It stifles free thought and they would have likely gotten more participation with a more rosier, optimistic, and realistic approach
this crap has the same vibes...
It's literally another brick in the wall.

These kids will be so confused they won't know what to do when America gets conquered. (I would say invaded but that's already underway). Wasn't it said that China would defeat the US without firing a single shot?
Off topic note to the OP: how do you like the new (old) Flyers jerseys? I may have to get one.

We homeschooled until 5th grade and then did Catholic school until graduation.
Worked out beautifully.

Just because I do not worship God like your religion wants to, does not mean I worship Satan. *rolls eyes*
SO yeah,
SO no. Also: Offtopic.
Satan in Judaism is not a physical being ruling the underworld, rather, in the Torah, the word Satan indicates “accuser,” “hinderer” or “tempter.” Satan is therefore more an illusory obstacle in one’s way - such as temptation and evil doings - keeping one from completing the responsibilities of tikkun olam (fixing the world). Satan is the evil inclination to veer off the path of righteousness and faithfulness in God.
Throughout the Torah, Satan challenges God to test the true loyalty of his followers, including Adam and Eve, as well as Abraham. However, Satan remains inferior to God and is incapable of taking action on mortals without God’s permission. In the Talmud and Midrash, Satan appears as the force in the world, responsible for all sins. Some Midrashim claim that the sounding of the Shofar on Rosh Hashanah is utilized to keep Satan away as Jews begin to atone for their sins. Even the morning after Yom Kippur, many Jews attend services to guarantee Satan does not make one last effort to instigate Jews to commit sins.
.... anything that doesnt fall within the parameters of gods commandments is considered by default being under the influence of the evil inclination (satan). There is no middle ground.

Again, you can believe what you want. It doesnt change what the Torah says!
