I have tried and failed many times. The format is just fricking terrible.

They've been murdered solely because of their sexual orientation throughout history and even today in some areas of the world.

Please don't equate race to sexual orientation.
This is perhaps the least intelligent thing I've ever seen couched as a "rational thought."
I don't even need to read the thread. At the end of the day, equality is equality. Race, Gender, Nationality, Family type, Sexual Orientation, all of these things are simply one facet of our being. If you discriminate based on any one, you are equally bigoted.

Without going back and reading all of this....am I understanding correctly that a HS teacher said gay people are an abomination and are going to hell? Cliff Notes?

That doesn't make it equivalent to a race.

Equality is equality, right?

Who, that isn't a bigoted piece of trash, talks like that? No one. It's not just my opinion. It's an opinion shared by many.

But he did open his mouth. He should have known better. He crossed a line.
He can think whatever he wants, but the minute that he opens his mouth and says those kinds of things to impressionable kids he's gone way over the fricking line.

Of course he has the right to think that way.. but he shouldn't be preaching in a classroom to students about gays and lesbians and god.
If for no other reason than separation of church and state.

But whatever. If I wanted to argue on this topic I would go over and argue with the Politards.

separation of church and state.
The 1st amendment says gov't shall not impede on our right to freedom of religion.
That means the 1st amendment is what ALLOWS teachers to state their views. Not bans it. The man wasn't forcing every kid to agree with him, or else fail. No one's rights were violated. Jesus.

Sorry.. I didn't mean to start a argument... I'll stop talking about it... it just pissed me off.
