The judge cited the Supreme Court’s recent decision establishing parents’ right to opt kids out of LGBTQ+ inclusive lessons.

A Boston judge has ruled in favor of a Massachusetts dad who sued his local school district to ensure his five-year-old son is never exposed to books featuring LGBTQ+ characters.

As the Boston Herald reported, the father, identified in court documents as Alan L., is described as a “devout Christian” who objects to the inclusion of certain children’s books featuring LGBTQ+ characters in the kindergarten curriculum of Joseph Estabrook Elementary School, where his son, identified as J.L., is enrolled.

    Christianity has harmed more people that LGBTQ people have. Many types of Christians have to try and save you by converting you. LGBTQ folks aren’t trying to convert you.

      Compare the number of Christians convicted of child sex crimes vs the number of LGBTQ+ who have and it paints a pretty one sided picture.

            Why do you think that? Is it because of all the news you’ve read about Catholic priests?

            What do you think the balance of news was like before that story came out?

            The bull hypothesis has got to be that people all have the same base line propensity. The only thing I know that changes it is themselves being abused as children.

      That’s one motivation behind their behavior. Since they are constantly trying to manipulate people to join them, they assume the gays are recruiting, too.
