If your child's school observes the homosexual sponsored "Day of Silence," keep your child at home April 25.
Dear Angela,
Friday, April 25, several thousand schools across the nation will be observing "Day of Silence (DOS)." DOS is a nationwide push to promote the homosexual lifestyle in public schools. AFA is joining other family-oriented groups in urging parents to keep their children at home that day if their local school is participating in the DOS project. By remaining silent, the intent of the pro-homosexual students is to disrupt the classes while promoting the homosexual lifestyle. DOS is sponsored by an activist homosexual group, the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN). DOS leads the students to believe that every person who identifies as a homosexual, bisexual or cross-dresser is a victim of ongoing, unrelenting harassment and hate. Students are taught that homosexuality is a worthy lifestyle, homosexuality has few or no risks, and individuals are born homosexual and cannot change. Those who oppose such teaching are characterized as ignorant and hateful bigots. Click here for Frequently Asked Questions about the Day of Silence:
Take Action!
What should parents do? Check with your local school principal to see if your child's school will be participating in DOS. If the school is participating, notify other parents about DOS and ask them to join in keeping their children out of school on that day. Here is a partial list of schools which are expected to participate in DOS: If your school is listed, call your local school and ascertain whether they officially or passively allow students to observe "Day of Silence." If your school is listed, please double-check with your local school to see if the school is actually sponsoring DOS. Sometimes the "participation" turns out to be a handful of kids who are saying they have a homosexual club and are observing this protest day, but without school endorsement. We sincerely hope your school, if listed, is not actually an official sponsor. If it is not, we will take them off the list, if a school official asks us to do so. Please e-mail your correction to editor@missionamerica.com. Some tips:
Be sure of the date that DOS is planned for your school. (The national date is April 25, but some schools observe DOS on a different date.)
Inform the school of your intention to keep your child home on that date and explain why. Click here for a sample letter.
Explain to your children why you're taking a stand: Homosexual behavior is not an innate identity; it is a sinful, unnatural and destructive behavior. No school should advance a physically, emotionally, and spiritually destructive sexual lifestyle to students.
Encourage your church leadership to follow the bold example of Pastor Ken Hutcherson who is vocally opposing "Day of Silence" in his community in Redmond, Washington. For his story, click here.
That is an email I received today and I find this so disturbing. What makes me so upset about it is.. well ALOT OF REASONS.. One in particular is the fact that we*christians* can not voice our oppinion on ANY subject because that would be intrusive on others rights regarding speration of CHURCH/STATE. So than can someone please explain to me or our CHILDREN why everyone BUT US get to say what they like at any given time and are able to express themselves under the FREEDOM OF SPEECH amendment??? hmmm.... yes I know and agree with that is what this world has come to.. but do we sit by and just let it happen??? Everyone knows I homeschool. but this still affects all of us REGARDLESS of how you school your children.. I am getting so sick of standing by and letting this stuff go on.. I am only one voice and believe me I use it often and well.. WE ALL need to stand up and start DOING SOMTHING about OUR RIGHTS as well.. THe right to serve the GOD who made this world..PUBLICLY WITHOUT APOLOGY... THe right to marry (if your a woman) the man whom GOD has chosen for you. or ( if your a man) the woman GOD has chosen for you. The right to stand against ALL KINDS OF MURDER including ABORTION without being called a HATEFUL person... The right to open up THE BIBLE without being escorted to the BOSS or principal.. We as christians have in some way caused our own dilema... by being the kind of people who do not FORCE ourselves or BELIEFS on anyone.. but this is a differant day and age in which we live and now we MUST be forceful if we expect to SALVAGE any of our rights for our children.... I do not have all the answeres but I just want to do SOMETHING to stand up for what is right.. There is NOTHING HOLY and sacred left in this world today I KNOW.. but there COULD STILL BE if we all UNITED to protect our rights.. How?? by starting in the town/city that you live in .. GET INVOLVED... if your at break and something is said.. DO NOT be afraid to say how you feel in a nice way but stand up for what is right.. dont be intimidated by thinking.. oo this might get me in trouble or ooo that might offend someone.. Hey I am offended by you being GAY.. I am offended by you killing your baby.. I AM offended by you watching porn at work or anywhere that I HAVE TO HEAR ABOUT IT>.. THIS is my world to and if you can not take hearing about MY JESUS but want me to hear about UR BUDAh or PORN or LOVER.. I DON'T THINK SO.. that aint goin down like that.. You can bet on that..
SHEW OK taking a breath.. O man I get so frustrated.. UGH... so anyway I just wanted to post that article so those of you who care enough to get involved will have a place to start.. Google AFA action alert and you will find alot of good resources to use..
GOD BLESS EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU AND GOD BLESS THE USA!!
