SEEKING COMMON GROUND IN THE SCHOOLS
which are becoming war zones over the issue of homosexuality is the subject of an opinion piece at USA Today.com
In reading through the article, it struck me that homosexuality has gained enough acceptance as a legitimate sexual expression to merit equal status with heterosexuality in this discussion of how to keep the schools from becoming a war zone.
One wonders if polygamy will also achieve such a level of acceptance when it's supporters agitate. Bestiality next? Swinging? S&M? Can the snuff film find a place at this neutral bargaining table given enough agitation on the part of its supporters? Could murder itself, minus the sexual qualifier, then come under this umbrella of approval? Before you dismiss this question as outrageous hyperbole, consider that sometimes students obtain legal abortions with the help of the school personnel and without the permission of their parents.
The schools have become a no-man's-land of amorality in the name of peace.
