...so you (or he) think the parents should not be allowed to teach that any sort of sexuality is wrong, is that right?

I was merely raising the point that (hopefully) we can all agree that some sexual behaviors are moral and others are immoral.

An interesting question is whether sexual behaviors that are immoral are immoral exclusively for reasons that aren't to do with sex, i.e. they are immoral because they involve force/coercion, violence, deception, reckless endangerment, etc.

Who is trying to sully my good name now?

Only if they are not ecnouraged to see thier sexuality as wrong. If however they activly propogandise the idea that homisexuality is imoral and/or unnatural then they shold not be allowed to do it, for any reason.

It's pushing "god" in an educational environmet full of young minds. For all intents and purposes it is endorsed and encouraged by the powers that be in the school.

It's absurd that home schooling should even be considered an option for someone wanting a secular school environment..

I'm sure that many religious texts have sections about teaching your children the "word" and that you are bad if you don't.

I don't think that children should be taught to be anti-semitic, but if your religion said that Jews were actually agents of Satan, how can you justify not teaching them that? As long as you don't teach children to beat up Jews or steal from them, then one of the warts of freedom is the existence of irrational beliefs and opinions. I think it is irresponsible to parent this way as it dooms your children to be anti-social to some extent or another, but what is the alternative, to have society be responsible for children instead of parents? This gets into the realm of reproductive rights/freedoms and what rights you actually have as a parent of your offspring.

Leaving religion out for a second, should people be able to teach their children that liberals or conservatives are immoral?

...so you believe that there are no forms of sexuality that should be considered wrong, and furthermore you think that this notion of yours should be the only one allowed circulation in the market of ideas?

No, I think he is saying you just can't teach your children that there are forms that are wrong.

...so you (or he) think the parents should not be allowed to teach that any sort of sexuality is wrong, is that right?

Not me, I think you are free to tech your kids whatever you want as long as it respects the rights of others and doesn't cause harm to your children. He is saying that we need to break the cycle of stereotypes by preventing parents from reinforcing them, either by religious means or just plain old edumakashun.

I was merely raising the point that (hopefully) we can all agree that some sexual behaviors are moral and others are immoral. He is of course, simply stating his desire that the state enforce his views on sexual morality as the correct ones when it comes to instruction...not to the point of having his view be the state-sponsored one, but beyond that forbidding the instruction of any view but that which he supports.

An interesting question is whether sexual behaviors that are immoral are immoral exclusively for reasons that aren't to do with sex, i.e. they are immoral because they involve force/coercion, violence, deception, reckless endangerment, etc.

I think that is where we would get more universal agreement for certain immoral acts. When someone tries to conflate unnatural (i.e. doesn't promote procreation) with immoral is where the consensus really starts to break down.

So if a westerner were living in say Saudi Arabia or Egypt or Iran, and wanted to "Homeschool" so as to teach their liberal western values to their kids and the STATE made this illegal and insisted that all the kids go to a State School so that the common values of their culture, their views on women and history, and politics and religion could be impressed up all kids for X hours a day you would be just fine with it. Right?

Because trust me those "homeschoolers" would be teaching things the STATE aka the cultural majority thinks are horrible ideas that children could be protected from.

Again I am amazed that the very oppression people are so offended by from "history" they are perfectly willing to INFLICT on others once they have the power to do so.
