I think you are all missing the MAIN issue here. It isn't if it is christain or not be homosexual. It is about the USA Government promoteing a political interest of a group that ISN'T legally recognized in many states. It is about YOUR tax dallors being used by special interest groups to target the children of the polutation as a whole, with out consent of the parents and with out warring, with the intent to undermine the political foe of homosexuality by targeting their children in the public school system.
Now before you all get on your high horses... let me ask you this. How would you feel about a school system putting on a program for child that says "homosexuality it wrong and unnatural" with out warning you or ask for you promision? You wouldn't like it would you? Well this is what they are doing.
I have made comments before that the school system shouldn't be a place for state morality to be forced upon our children. This is a perfect example of this. Homosexuals do not have the right to target children for force acceptance classes. Even more so when it does not warn parents or even give then the option of opting out.
I have two main points I would Like to respond to here.
This is about tolerance (putting up with something), not acceptance (believing something is right). Toleration doesn't step on anyone's religious or cultural beliefs. Every group makes choices about what they do and do not believe, and teach their children "This is what We do. Those people over may do (or think) differently) but they are not US." It works for many many groups. Live and let live has a long history here. Let's keep it going.
As far as "USA Government promoteing a political interest of a group that ISN'T legally recognized in many states", I have to disagree. It doesn't matter what groups are and aren't recognized by the State or Federal government. This is about respecting the rights of individual people, regardless of what their affiliations may be. The government is doing it's job to protect individuals from harm. Teaching children that being different is not a reason to harm someone- physically or mentally is very important. It could help prevent another Columbine tragedy.

Off topic, but i'm curious: I take it that you felt that the Bush Administration was wrong to be paying those conservative columnists via HHS Contracts?

That is the REAL point of this case.
