Clay Principal Blocks School Paper Over Article On Homosexuality
While I'm railing out against social injustice, here's more controversy from the Clay County (Florida) school system: A high school senior, who is bisexual, wrote an op-ed piece for her school paper on homosexuality in which she put forth her opinion (which happens to be shared by every gay person I've ever known) that homosexuality is not a choice, but a biological inclination. Her teacher approved the essay, however the school principal vetoed its publication.
Clay County is fast establishing a national reputation for bigotry and intolerance. Just a few months ago a lesbian student was not allowed to have her class photo, in which she wore a tuxedo, printed in her school's yearbook. I don't know what the problem was; she looked pretty darn sharp in that tux.
All kidding aside, what the HELL is wrong with you people?

Lesbian Minister Defrocked By United Methodist Church
This is sad, and illustrates how far we as a society have swung to the right. So much for the United Methodist Church's reputation of tolerance.
