California Textbooks, SB 1437, The 700 Club, and the "Gay Agenda"
I caught a few minutes of Pat Robertson's The 700 Club this morning (and a few minutes is all I can stomach of that) and saw a news segment about California changing a law that would allow sexual orientation to a list of things that teachers or textbooks couldn't demean.
"California public schools could not demean gay, bisexual or transgender orientation under fiercely controversial legislation approved Monday by the Assembly." From the Sacramento Bee.
And Pat Robertson said, as you would have guessed, that this was part of the "Gay Agenda."
What people like him (hate-filled religionist zealots) refuse to understand is that maybe it's not part of the so-called "Gay Agenda."
Maybe it's just the right thing to do.

I agree, from the excerpt
I agree, from the excerpt you giave, it's absolutely the right thing to do. It doesn't sound like teachers would be required to endorse or even talk about sexual orientation -- just that they can't "demean" it. How about not demeaning anyone? At least anyone that isn't a criminal.
