Week of 'tolerance' intolerant of traditional values

quiet child shhSchools across America are participating in "No Name Calling Week" this week. However, one Christian attorney fears a worthy goal could be concealing pro-homosexual propaganda.

 

Brad Dacus, president of the Pacific Justice Institute (PJI), says while the event's name sounds innocent, it is a way of indoctrinating children so that they will support the homosexual agenda after they become adults. A PJI press release reveals the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network, or GLSEN, is a key sponsor of the program.
 
"They're promoting, all the way down to the first-grade level, children to read and be exposed to books and material that is pro-homosexual -- and it's all under the guise of opposing name-calling," he contends.
 
He adds the event is designed to prevent the bullying of homosexuals, lesbians, and the transgendered, but mentions nothing about protecting children who believe in traditional marriage.
 
Brad Dacus PJI"The alleged homosexual kids are not the only ones being bullied," the attorney points out. "There's [sic] kids of faith being called 'homophobic' and 'homophobe,' and yet those words and that name-calling is not under attack and is not being addressed by this alleged week of tolerance that's being pushed."
 
Dacus urges parents to be aware of what happens in their children's schools and to opt out their children out if necessary.
