You might be surprised that many other Christians would support that as well. Hate the sin not the sinner. There are two issues with Badon's bill. First it introduces a requirment to bring sexual orientation and sex into our public classrooms. Something that the Christian community largely views as a private or church matter. You might be surprised the level of sex education within the church today. No matter the orientation we don't believe it belongs in the public classroom under any circumstances. There are already numerous laws on the book to deal with the issue. Sometimes I think legislators write laws to make them feel better. I & others fear that these laws will be used to stifle our free speech rights. It should not be a crime for a Christian to profess their belief opposing same sex relationships. The noted bill certainly opens the door for abuse along those lines. Same sex couples have the right to pursue their relationships in our society and to not be discriminated against. Christians also should have the right to voice our believes on the matter without fear of governmental prosecution. - Cajun90 Fri, 12 Aug 2011 15:17:30 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8834-from-on-high-lff-issues-scorecard#comment-20830 And I thought the Ind was the arbiter of piety.
