School / education stuff

[Nodack]

This is just a continuation of the battle between the left and the right.

Dems want to teach about gays, black history and indian history without the sugar coating.

Cons want to cover it up and ban talking about gays, blacks or indians in any classroom their kids are in.

[Superbone]

It’s right in the bill title!

This is the bill title:
CS/CS/HB 1557: Parental Rights in Education

What did you think the title was?

Dude, it was a joke! Wow. 'Don't Say Gay' bill. Get it? DO YOU?!

You got that whole breakdown of each parties stances out of that bill?

Wow

I'm sorry. You're right. I didn't recognize the joke you were making.

In2: Do you support the Florida education bill? If so, what do you like about it?

[Mori Chu]

Fyi: It has passed.

I really like The Bulwark. They have a great podcast, too. Conservatives who don't support Trump or the mess that the GOP has become.

From the author of the bill himself:

So what age & grade should you allow strangers to teach your kids about sexuality and all it's variations and combinations? What age & grade should you decide to have this taught to your neighbor's children?

In2: Do you think it is wrong (bad, sinful, etc.) to be gay? To be transgender?

In2: Do you think it is wrong (bad, sinful, etc.) to be gay? To be transgender?

Sinful? I would be lying if I said it wasn't. I have nothing against someone being gay or transgender. I have many friends & family in either groups, and have worked with many my whole life, and I've never ever had a problem with them, nor do I ever try to make them feel bad or shame them for it. Do you?

[Indy]

You just called it sinful, then tried to say you have no problem with it...

[In2ition]

You just called it sinful, then tried to say you have no problem with it...

Yes, they aren't mutually exclusive. Everyone sins, and everyone is sinful. I try not to go around pointing out everyone else's sin. My job isn't to go around and point out yours either. That's between you and yourself. Do you understand the nuance?

[Indy]

They are mutually exclusive. You can't say I choose to call what someone is a sin, but then say you don't have a problem with it. You are actively choosing to call it sinful.

[In2ition]

Ah, you misunderstand. Everyone sins, got it. I sin too. I have to deal with my own sin daily, and don't have the time to deal with yours. I do not have a problem with people. Otherwise, I would pretty much hate everyone. Instead, I'm instructed to love everyone(not easy on this board, j/k), regardless of their sin, therefore I do not have a problem with people.

[Indy]

You are literally judging people by calling them sinners.

[In2ition]

You are literally judging people by calling them sinners.

Lol, no. This is a hard concept for you it seems. Sorry you're having a problem with it.

Do you think I go around each day and look at literally everyone thinking, "I wonder what their sin is?"

I would do a terrible job as God. Judging each person on the spot and condemning them. Some of those drivers out there though...let me tell you.

[Indy]

I guess you don't get how labeling someone as a sinner is judging them. Seems weird for someone that is Christian to not get that. Matthew and all.

[In2ition]

So you believe that I should judge everyone and treat them as such? This is what you do as arbitrator of your own moral code?

[Indy]

that is the opposite of what I said.
