If we believe in freedom of expression of ideas, then ideas must be evaluated for the social and family good of society. Things that demean or destroy the structure of family must be challenged. There should be no sacred cows that cannot be killed if they are destructive. However opposition must be gracious and encouraging otherwise opposition then becomes destructive.

The traditional family structure is no longer a
realistic social standard. Increases in divorce and
re-marriage has created households that incorporate
step-parents, step-children, step-siblings. Unwed
mothers are raising children in single households.

As the stigma of same-sex relationships diminishes
it's becoming more common for them to have children.

However, the family remains fundamentally important
to people throughout their life. It's that today
we different forms of family.

Foxy,

Such is the beauty of LGBT, race, Islam etc. It seeks maximal protection for its narrative whilst openly discriminating against others in endless ways.

My rights don't begin where yours end.

I don't believe that gay entryism should be allowed to subvert religion- ie. no gay teachers in schools with philosophies that believe that gayness is wrong. Gay people can create their own schools if they desire- however personally I'm concerned about sexualizing children and believe it is abuse.

Some philosophies are mutually incompatible. This is why people need to be able to control what is acceptable in their communities- of course some level of wisdom is required here.

The entryism of gays into schools is classic communist entryism tactics- everyone wants more power but is it valid and proportional- sometimes groups need to stay on their own side of the fence.

There are no perfect solutions- we should encourage people to fit in for peace and stability- if they can't do that at least don't subvert everyone else. Everyone has things they don't talk about in mixed company.

Sometimes I think that Foxy hides behind the claimed Communist attacks on her ancestors so she can promote Communist Propaganda. Maybe it's my imagination.

I was interested by ttbn's reference to Marxism on this thread.

As Marx rightly pointed out, religion has been encouraged and developed by political leaders as a powerful tool of mind control of the masses, subjugating and pacifying them at will. It also incites the faithful to sacrifice their lives for the promise of eternal bliss in heaven.

Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran issued a fatwa ordering Muslims to kill Rushdie for his book The Satanic Verses, published in 1989.

As a result, the book was outlawed in several counties. The publishers and translaters were threatened and Rushdie's freedom was limited.

He spent 13 years in hiding, under police protection.
