My .02 is that this is the right move for the wrong reasons. The issue shouldnt be one of taking offense, or morality, or protecting the rights of Christians, or any of that. If kids want to celebrate their own sexuality, they are going to anyway, so disregard the children on this.

The common sense point is that the teachers and administration have no business celebrating sexual lifestyle or sexuality whatsoever. Just like they have no business celebrating race, or religion, or social class, or whatnot. Even sex-ed should be at the will of the parent, and taught by medical professionals instead of “health” teachers. We shouldn’t be allowing the public school system to promote, or by necessity then put down, any student or group of students for any of their lifestyle traits. It has zero to do with education.

I do not like religion scrambled with my legislation. If you can not package a controversial (to some) piece of legislation to rise above simple dismissal for being proposed by “religion freaks”, and by that I mean the very loud opposition, then find someone else to package it. Love the idea, hate the way it is promoted.
