Dear Editor,
California’s gay policy-writers are at it again, this time trying to push their agenda down the academic ladder into elementary and high schools.
There is nothing new to learn from their SB 1437, except another insufferable lesson on how gay rights activists have weaponized the concept of “tolerance.” This lesson comes at the expense of our children, as state funds are drained that could have been used for meeting achievement standards.
My Webster’s definition of tolerance means to “recognize and respect other’s beliefs without sharing them.” If parents and school boards do not wish to teach social mores of the gay rights “movement,” they are branded “intolerant,” because they are not tolerant enough to appease the movement’s hubris. Yet, gays themselves are intolerant of the Judeo-Christian principles on which our country was founded.
The current trio of gay rights bills in Sacramento seeks to advance their reckless intolerance. It will be truly alarming if today’s legislators are as easy to brainwash as tomorrow’s school children.
Mr. and Mrs. J. Anthony, San Leandro
