Title: What I had to say to the NEA. Post by: Kathy on July 24, 2006, 02:13:58 PM OK I got a email from AFA and they were talking about the NEA wants to teach kids to accept and respect homosexuals and I just could not help but send the note that the AFA had written, but was able to added my 2 cents worth. This is what I wrote in addition to what the AFA had.
Kathy First we have the prayers taken out of schools and school events. Then we have the TAKS, TAAS tests(whatever they are being called now a days.) Which does not serve a purpose in my opinion. I think if you want to see how well a teacher is teaching then you need to test the teachers on what they are or will be teaching, not the students. I think you will find a lot of teachers not ready to teach. I am wondering if you realize that there are teachers teaching subjects that they have a clue what they are teaching. How do I know? The classes that both my daughters were in, more then half of the students failed that class. Did they get rid of that teacher? Yes, on one, but at the end of the school year. Did they rid of the other teacher? I don't know, but they should have. I have a lot of respect for most teachers and I have grown to love few of my children. Now, you want all children to learn to accept and respect homosexuals. As a Christian, I do not approve and I wish I could afford to take my child out of the public schools and I wish there was a way for my tax dollars to be removed from supporting public schools. Everyone talks about how offended they are of Christians. I believe that Christians have stood back long enough and it is time for us to be heard. Am I a preacher, on TV, politican, or someone famous who happens to be a Christian. No, I am just you average taxpaying Christian, who has decided enough is enough. Go back to the basics and teach what needs to be taught and allow the parents to teach their child(ren) what they believe is right and wrong. Go back to teaching our kids how to read, write and to do math. Go back to teaching our kids what they need to know about making a living and being productive in life. I will teach my child(ren)that they need to respect and love all people no matter the color, race, sexual preference or anything else that makes them different from me. Do I agree with how they live? No, but neither does God and his word says to love the person, but to hate the sin. If I am suppose to be Christ like then I have love everyone and that is how I will raise my child(ren). I believe that if you are going to teach the children to accept and respect homosexuals then you must teach them to accept and respect Christians. If you decide to teach about this or that then there will other groups demanding to have their views or lifestyle taught. I ask you where will it end and how will you teach what should really needs to be taught. In Christ's Love Title: Re: What I had to say to the NEA. Post by: Soldier4Christ on July 24, 2006, 02:30:14 PM Amen Kathy, we all need to do just that. To stand up for our rights as parents. The schools have taken on the attitude that parents do not know what is best for their children. When truth is known it is the schools that do not know.
On a second note. You said that you wished that you could afford to pull your children out of the schools. There are ways to do just that and to give your children a higher quality education than they can get in most public schools. Yes it does cost a lot to send them to a private Christian school. It costs very little to homeschool them and it takes very little time. The public schools take 8 hours or more a day to teach what a parent can do in a couple of hours or less ( even working parents have the time ) . There are many materials available on the internet that are totally free. There are homeschool support groups in many areas that also have resources for very little or nothing at all. These support groups also help each other in areas that you may be having with your child. Not an accridted teacher? That is not a problem in most states, check the laws for your individual state. Don't take someone elses word that it can't be done. If you are truly interested PM me and I can give you the information for your state. Title: Re: What I had to say to the NEA.

If I have anything to say about it, my grandchildren will NOT be forced to sit and listen to filthy garbage. I will find a way to help my children raise their children in the things of the LORD - end of story - period! My wife has been a school teacher for 30 years, and so far has not been asked to teach this garbage. If she is told to teach this filth, she and many other Christian teachers in my part of the country will REFUSE. My wife has seen the text books changed to just about remove any reference at all to GOD, including the GODLY heritage of our country that is, in fact, the REAL AND ONLY HISTORY. It just isn't taught these days, and the teachers aren't allowed to add it back. As a result, many children these days don't have a clue about the real history of our country. There's a lot of things that can't be done these days, including Christmas plays, REAL Thanksgiving celebrations, etc., etc. Many songs and books are banned that contain references to GOD, and many filthy things have taken their place. Please remember that the teachers don't have any choice except to strike and/or resign. The problems will be coming to every school sooner or later, including schools in the most conservative Christian places. The parents will be forced to make hard decisions, but there are more and more options available every day. Many churches are opening their doors and becoming schools. The idiots like the ACLU will try to stop this or force the same curriculum to be taught in the Christian schools. So far, it appears that the ACLU is completely without power of any kind in Christian schools or with parents who home school. BUT, various Christian organizations are starting to BEAT THE ACLU in court at their own game. I obviously don't know how far or how fast progress will be made against the Godless left, but progress is being made. I'll just call it like it is and say that Christians will be fortunate to slow the devil down. We will not be able to stop the devil, but our Lord and Saviour, JESUS CHRIST, will defeat the devil completely at GOD'S appointed time.
