Angry Is Society Encroaching On The Church?

Yesterday, I heard on talk radio a discussion about sex education in the schools & a bill before the Provincial Government requiring teachers to teach as early as Kindergarten & all through the school curriculum about Gays, Lesbians, Transvestites, & Transgendered lifestyles as being valid & worthy of acceptation
in life.

Teaching or speaking against that would be akin to hate crimes.

I know we are facing it up here, what about where you live?

Is this an issue there?

God come quickly, this is getting to be a world that is going bonkers by the minute!

Re: Is Society Encroaching On The Church?

Been there done that in our little town when my youngest was in primary school. She is 20 now. We signed petitions against it then. Now I am not sure. Will ask my kids, my oldest granddaughter is home schooled.
