Who is Legislating Morality?


The cry from the left for years has been that Christian conservatives are trying to legislate morality. But one only need look at the California’s educational establishment and the Legislature to see a history of forcing the pro-homosexual agenda on Californians to know that they are the ones forcing their values on others.

Take for example a report in the San Francisco Chronicle about a school that is requiring teachers to put up pro-Gay posters in their classrooms.

Teachers have a week to hang the 8 1/2-by-11 posters, which were designed by the 30 or so students in the school's Gay-Straight Alliance. Furtado will check all 200 classrooms next week to see if the posters are visible, and she said she'd have "a private conversation" with teachers who don't comply.

So what do they mean by “a private conversation”? They probably mean that disciplinary action will be taken if they do not agree to give up their right to freedom of speech and religious objection. In other words, the school district is going to force teachers who object to the lifestyle of homosexuality to honor it, in violation of their religious beliefs.

And forced compliance with this cultural indoctrination is being proposed in the California Legislature. AB 606 states that the State Superintendent of Public Instruction withhold money from schools who do not comply with their view of “Tolerance” .

The Capital Resource Institute states:

“It is outrageous that AB 606 would permit Jack O'Connell to arbitrarily withhold funds from a school district if he happens to think they are not adequately promoting pro-homosexual sentiment on a particular campus," said England. "This is too much power for one elected official. It should be up to the courts to determine whether the conduct of a school board is in compliance with state law. "

"Under AB 606, a school board's hands will be completely tied. They will have to either completely cater to the state superintendent's whim or decide to go without funding for education in order to fight for their policy."

So I'll ask again...Who iss legislating morality?
