Reply to comment by pyspark2020 in A 2nd grade teacher in Darien, CT included the book “Julian is a Mermaid” in her curriculum. The book is about a child who transitions, dresses in drag, & strips to his underwear to join a parade. by pyspark2020

Man, I just... I just do not give a shit and I have a well established suspicion people that go around looking for these types of stories don't really either and only want to use those kinds of one of stories to beat a minority group with in a manner that Milligram would weep with how correct he is.

I mean I went to school and we learned from this book that said a town raped angels that were playing as needing visitors and then the town was destroyed because of it. Is that any better than this story?

NO is not better. This is why I'm against teaching the Bible in school.

I mean the actual moral of the Sodom and Gomorrah allegory is to treat the needy as well as you possibly can (the inscribed gold) and to act humbly in the face of works done in the name of God (which any good cause can fill in for).

So... Maybe you're in a moral panic? Maybe? Something that doesn't really happen en masse in CT...
