One of my step children is gay. She makes sure that her and hers do not fly the flag that represents pedophilia. She showed me once and if memory serves it has a brown bar on it.

I have another gay friend that used to babysit my kids who said the same thing. She saw another neighbor flying the "all inclusive" flag and she flat out told us "don't let the kids go near that house, they are going to try and groom them". Her and her wife are also huge Trumps supporters so the average progressive would consider them traitors.

I don’t think this is accurate.

My BIL is gay and he doesn’t do all this pride bullshite either. It’s just a small part of who he is. It’s not the main part of his life. He’s one of those people that just wants to be treated like everyone else and he is, mainly because he isn’t shoving his sexual identity in everyone’s faces.

I don’t even give a damn about it. I just don’t understand WHY we have to have a whole month for them to feel right about their sexual preference. Who they trying to convince?

Of course, a whole month isn’t good enough for them. It seems like at least once a month there’s some sort of “gay day”.

At one time it was considered harsh to aggressively object to bumper stickers or signs being displayed to cause a reaction, so we ignored it around our kids or friends.

Now, things have changed and I believe it is necessary to verbally stand by your beliefs regardless of whether or not it flies in the face of family or friends, especially if impressionable minds are in the mix.

Stand your ground; do not comply!

That is an assumption on your part. You don't even know if these kids have phones. 4th grade 9 year olds may have an idea but not a full understanding of being gay; but first and second greders can not grasp the gay concept. I'm an adult and don't understand gay pride. I'm a heterosexual man but I don't want a flag because I'm proud of that fact. I'm not proud (or ashamed) of being a heterosexual ????

Both sides accuse the other side of wanting to indoctrinate children; neither side believes they are indoctrinating children.


Yeah?

So half of the teachers in school are telling elementary age children that gay is a sinful abomination while the other half are telling them the opposite and flying gay pride flags in classrooms?

Schools are harboring both gay porn AND evangelical material putting forth the message that being gay is a sinful abomination?

Teachers are recruiting half the students into anti-gay extracurricular groups at the same time they are recruiting students into pro-gay extracurricular groups?

There are as many anti-gay SHAME parades as there are PRIDE parades in public spaces around the country?

There are Straight King Storytimes at public libraries across the country to balance out the Drag Queen Storytimes?

I've missed all that indoctrination.

Seems like if it was really 50% vs 50%, we'd see some of this happening institutionally.

Bro, kindergarten teachers HAVE to display pride flags in their classrooms and teach the kids about their sexuality. THEIR LIVES DEPEND ON IT!!!

Ok, so this one I find tricky. If God created all people…therefore, I’d go with to each their own.



I don't see why it's tricky. He didn't say they need to be taken out and beaten or shunned or anything like that, just that we don't participate in that aka "do that".

Believe in gay people?


Now you're just being obtuse; you know very well he means they don't believe that is morally right.

Mainly I’m just annoyed that liberals and gays put us in this situation every year. The gay pride flag for me is as offensive as a swastika or something like that. It’s very distressing having it get pushed on my kids.

Do you? You don’t want your chosen religious institution to preach to you our your children about homosexuality? Regardless, I didn’t mention institutions; I said half the population wants to indoctrinate children into believing homosexuality is a sinful abomination. You don’t personally want to preach to your children about homosexuality? You want everyone, everywhere, including yourself to be silent on the subject? Because if not, you do, in fact, want to indoctrinate children on the subject.
