<p>You repeatedly ignore that we are dealing with minors here.</p>
<p>Parents, not you or Michael or mythmom or the state (public schools) get to decide how all children should be educated. Even homeschooling is legal in this country. </p>
<p>If parents wish their children to be educated within the guidelines of their religious faith, and this faith happens to include the idea that same sex marriage, (or even homosexuality itself), is something they do not wish their children to approve of, THEY have the right to GUIDE (or in your words–“censor”) what their children see, hear and read in order to influence their thinking on the matter until their minor child reaches the age of 18.</p>
<p>PARENTS, not you, the public schools, or people on this message board, have the RIGHT in this country (which has, by the way, been challenged legally again and again), to forbid parents from raising their children as they wish.</p>
<p>This may offend your sensibilities and sensitivities, but that is the law.</p>
<p>I understand you are trying mightily to spin this that these people are bigots and homophobes (I consider this “name calling” btw), but you have no idea what is in the heart of these people.</p>
<p>Perhaps you could explain to me why you can’t just leave religion, and the education of minor children, out of it. I really can’t see why parents should have to give up control of how their children are raised to your personal viewpoints. </p>
<p>Frankly, I see shaming (implying people are intolerant, bigots and homophobes) as a tactic to get people to change their minds.</p>
<p>I do not view this as honorable.</p>
