You say 'kids', which suggests they're under the age of 18. I know sexuality in high schools DOES exist, but maybe it shouldn't. Just a thought.

People go to school to learn. It should stay that way.
Haha, very good point Chez. It is very distracting for myself as a high school student back in the day when I was trying to gain more Calculus knowledge when the cheerleading captain kept whispering raunchy things in my ear. Do you know how hard it is to integrate in calculus, let alone when I could cut the sexual tension in the air with a knife?! Next thing I know, I'm sitting at the lunch table, just trying to get through the struggle of daily life (because high school is soooo tough and stressful and all), and these two girls kept telling me to meet them behind the flagpole and they'll "show me theirs if I show them mine." I'm just trying to go to school to learn mang, that's all. If these fundamentalists wanna run things like a boss, I think any kind of flirting or any hints at sexuality should be permabanned from school. Because that is all school is, boys getting the girls in the back. [/Gwen Stefani]

The Institute claims that under the GTC guidelines Christian teachers will have to treat gay kids with respect regardless of their views on homosexuality.
Gee, I didn't see that one coming. Who would of thunk it? To be respectful, to everyone? I'm glad they wrote this one down in the guidelines, because I'm sure as hell that people will leave this up to interpretation and now all kinds of Supreme Court rulings will come from it.

"The Christian Institute is an unpleasant bunch at the best of times, but this really scrapes the bottom of the barrel.
Those crazy Christians. They are just an unpleasant bunch of people. From going down to help with Hurricane Katrina relief, to flying over to Belize to run a summer camp, to helping poverty-stricken people in Jamaica building houses for their families (these are just experiences of me in the presence of them firsthand). Nevermind them helping millions and millions of people worldwide (I hear they serve more people than McDonalds, but that's just a rumor), they are a force to be dealt with, and we must eliminate all of them and their silly organizations at all costs!

...Or just not take them seriously. Like I did, with this thread. lolgg
