The goal of the school’s curriculum, the teacher said, was that students show respect for different sexual orientations, and the student’s views did not correspond with that goal.[/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, sans-serif] The student’s parents reported the case to the school board, who investigated the case. The board concluded that the school should have provided extra support and the teacher should have informed the parents, when it became clear that the student was at risk of failing. However, the school board will not take any action since the student has completed upper elementary school.[/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, sans-serif] When the story hit the news, it sparked a vigorous debate on Swedish social media network[url="https://www.flashback.org/"]Flashback Forum[/url]. Anonymous commentators discussed the incident, one expressing the concern that it was “another step in the direction of a Sweden without free speech.â€[/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, sans-serif] Another member declared, “This shows that the Swedish school system is an indoctrination centre… The Swedish school should teach students to think critically and have their own opinions, but here we have one student who chose to have a non-politically correct opinion and was punished for it.â€[/font][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tab'le De'Bah-Rye Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 If murder was normalised would you fight against it Hasan ? Or just sit down and do nothing. Some things are wrong, but all have sinned and fall short of the will of GOD anyone that says otherwise is a lier, but this does not mean sin isn't an abnormal disorder with many causes and reduces the participants ability to be truely charitable without anticipating return. Most won't care as much if there isn't regular returns on there charity in word or deed, i believe this is the condition of not admiting the existance of sin and it's destructive forces.

I think it is unnatural and those who fall victim to this intrinsically disordered orientation, while deserving of love and compassion and pity, ought to fight against this inclination so they can lead normal and ordered lives which are pleasing to God. I lack any scientific evidence for my view but I do have a book where it is very clearly written that God inspired my point of view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilllabettt Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Yes, Virginia, being gay is abnormal. So is having red hair or conceiving after 40. According to the Swedes, my observations prove my hatred and dissing of not only homos, but also gingers and old preggers. Oh Swedes. I will agree to sensitivity training for the gays and the old preggers. But not the redheads. they are the worst. Hatred of redheads yesterday. Hatred of redheads today. Hatred of redheads forever!!!

Why the hell do stay on this board when you think we're all so disordered? Is this your atheist missionary ministry, to free the disordered Catholics of their pitiable unscientific condition? If we were all Black, or Jewish, or Muslim, or lesbian, would you come on here to insult us, and gloss it all with your supposedly wry humor (NOT) as a cover that's supposed to make it all okay? No, you wouldn't, but it's okay to insult us because we're just Catholics? YOU'RE NOT FUNNY! YOU'RE NOT CHANGING ANYONE'S MIND! YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME HERE! YOU'RE PISSING US OFF! (I speak of myself only, in the royal first person.) Seek professional help to figure out where you developed your unwarranted superiority complex. If you can't afford that, please find the nearest cliff and drop off of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was saying the exact things that I am told about homosexuals here and saying it about Catholics. If you really found it so offensive then maybe your Church's position on homosexuals isn't as loving as you seem to believe.

[/QUOTE] Ok. [QUOTE]If you can't afford that, please find the nearest cliff and drop off of it. [/quote] I'm pretty sure this constitutes scandal. I don't have a superiority complex. At least not towards Catholics. I am Catholic, albeit an excommunicated one, and make no effort ever to uncleave myself from my Catholic identity. I know a lot of practicing Catholics who are more intelligent than I am, more well read than I am, and more moral than I am. I do dislike bullies. And I dislike how homosexuals have been bullied by a much more powerful demographic (conservative Christians) and so yes, I do treat people who promote homophobia with contempt. I also treat with contempt the idea spread by the Church that it is loving and humane to classify homosexuals as individuals who are of an intrinsically disordered condition and who use their rather immense financial and political resources to systematically disenfranchise homosexuals because their book says that homosexuality is disordered and unnatural (when it's not joyously recounting the various innocent people that the Lord leads his vassals to slaughter).

[/quote] I don't trust this story as it seems that the writer is attempting to do a sleight-of-hand. Reading the article it seems like the student was doing poorly and they provide no context as to what he actually said or in what context the teacher used whatever he said to fail him. If the student said that he had a personal religious belief that homosexuality was abnormal (in the non-literal sense of implying a normative claim) then the teacher failing him on these grounds would be outrageous. On the other hand if he answered an actual biology question about the phenomena of homosexuality and he denied that homosexuality was a phenomena that occurred in non-human animals on the a priori grounds that it was abnormal and therefore answered a question factually wrong and therefore failed a test and therefore failed biology then there is absolutely nothing wrong with this. I don't know. I feel like it is probably the latter since the article was so vague but maybe I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Looking at the original Swedish article, it seemed like the English translation almost ripped off word for word the original, which said failure was a direct result of the student's opinion, which to me implies it was the former, not the latter. But I don't know. I can only find this story on the original Swedish source, plus the site originally linked here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilllabettt Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 (edited) I know. I just burn with hatred all the time. I once tried to list out all the kinds of people I hate, but my voice got tired. So I tried writing it down, but then I broke my hand. Today I went to buy dowel rods and have decided I also hate people who wear red shirts at Target even though they are not employees. They should all be destroyed. along with velociraptors that know how to open doors. Edited July 28, 2012 by Lilllabettt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
