Sex education -sacrosanct ?

After reading your editorial " Attack on sex education " this

    morning, I feel more sympathetic to this Parents' Rights Coalition.

    They too might have something important  - but anti-PC - to

    say about the often silly and downright offensive sex education

    in the public schools .

             What does seem to be intolerable nowadays in the public

    school system is the Judeo-Christian tradition. You are free

    to make  fun of these true-believer freaks - imagine taking

    an ancient faith seriously !

              I myself recall that the maligned Baltimore

    Catechism taught us not to be mean or cruel to ANY of

    God's creatures . And that Judgment Day can be left to

    HIM .

            My elderly mother complains that the schools are

    failing miserably to teach everyday manners to kids. How

    will they ever succeed in teaching  very special forms

    of old fashioned tolerance ?

           Also  can anything teach tolerance better than a

    familiarity with great American literature ?  Thank

    God , it is NOT value free !

             Schools should teach what they were created to

    teach . And forget this  IN LOCO PARENTIS stuff .

            Crap is crap - even with a PC label.
