Safe Schools Sophistry<br />

While many people in California and across the nation have stepped forward to oppose the "Safe<br />

Schools" agenda, their efforts have been complicated by some very clever sophistry on the part of<br />

"gay" strategists. What follows is an analysis and refutation of the argument that underlies the "Safe<br />

Schools" program.<br />

The argument is simple on its face:<br />

1) There are many "gay" kids in the schools.<br />

2) "Gay" kids face hostility, name-calling, and sometimes violence from other kids.<br />

3) The cause of the abuse is discriminatory attitudes about homosexuality, which kids learn from their<br />

parents and society. This discriminatory attitude is called "homophobia."<br />

4) Schools are legally and morally responsible for protecting "gay" kids from harassment.<br />

5) Schools are therefore legally and morally obligated to stamp out "homophobia" among the<br />

students (in much the same manner that they already work to stamp out racism).<br />

Here is the problem with "Safe Schools" and the reasoning behind it. (Items 6-10)<br />

6) "Safe Schools" relies upon many ambiguous terms and hidden false assumptions. For example,<br />

what exactly is a "gay" student and why should schools take the position that all of the other students<br />

and not the "gay" students should change?<br />

The answer from the pro-homosexual camp is that "gay" kids cannot change since homosexuals are<br />

"born that way." But can they prove this controversial assumption? Absolutely not.<br />

Due to selective reporting by a pro-"gay" media, many people have been led to believe that science<br />

has found a biological cause of homosexuality. However, this is simply not true. There is no scientific<br />

proof that homosexuality is biologically caused.<br />

Neither has homosexuality been proved to be an innate or unchangeable condition. Indeed, the<br />

repeated, consistent failure of sympathetic scientists to find a biological explanation for homosexuality<br />

reinforces the traditional view held by many (if not most) parents that homosexuality is a<br />

behavioral disorder that can be acquired by anyone. Importantly, the traditional view is espoused my<br />

many former homosexuals now living normal heterosexual lives.<br />
