NEA Promotes Homosexuality as ‘Normal’ to Children

So often lately, I wonder how we got to this point.

A joint project by the National Education Association (NEA) and the American Psychological Association (APA) is giving parents 16,000 new reasons to question the agenda of national teachers’ union leaders. The NEA and APA have partnered to produce a booklet titled, “Just the Facts about Sexual Orientation and Youth,” which they plan to distribute to every superintendent in America’s 16,000 school districts. Among the so-called “facts” in the 24-page document is the opinion, that homosexuality is “a normal expression of human sexuality.”

There’s no scientific proof of this yet these two organizations opt to follow political agendas rather than their own mission-stated goals. Nothing about statistics that show those in the homosexual lifestyle are more likely to commit suicide.

The booklet also warns teachers not to discuss “transformational ministries” that suggest homosexuality is a condition that can be changed. Religious-based views are regarded as harmful, if not dangerous.

The NEA is one of the more liberal organizations in the country and their anti-religion stance is hardly surprising. But to come right out and publish it? That’s hubris!

This is no surprise to those who have followed the leftward drift of the NEA leadership. For years, the organization has used teachers’ dues to subsidize its top officials’ left-wing fanaticism, which includes everything from promoting homosexuality and abortion in schools to pushing birth control. The APA is no better. In the past few decades, the group has gone from listing homosexuality as a mental disorder to becoming one of its biggest champions in the public square.

Talk about flip-flop. Amazing.

Now both groups are using their influence to transform public schools into incubators for their radical social agendas. These lessons in political correctness must stop! Log on to www.frc.org and download the real facts about “Homosexuality in Your Child’s School.”

I sincerely hope that parents everywhere understand what their schools are teaching their children. Unfortunately, many parents aren’t as involved in their kids’ lives as they could be. Don’t let that be you.
