Yes...who could be more suitable to program and discuss sexuality and identity with your children than a single, 23-year-old complete stranger, who just stumbled out of his first degree in the Wokest subject on earth...Education? (Or his elder version, 20 years later, no more qualified to do that, no brighter but much older?)

What could possibly go wrong?

Yes. They would. Or is indoctrination ok as long as 'you' approve of it? The trans cult would make the same stupid comparison. ''Oooh. We are only teaching them to 'be kind' and 'inclusive' ''. I'm pretty sure children are intelligent enough to work out that murdering people is wrong. Murder doesn't tend to be much of an issue when it comes to children (except when THEY are being murdered). Coveting the neighbour's wife doesn't tend to be one either. It's not because of a 'commandment' that the vast majority of humans don't go around murdering people. Ever heard anyone use that as a defence in court? ''Our client is pleading not guilty on the grounds that he has never heard of the 10 commandments or seen them on a billboard anywhere''.
Religious indoctrination by 'bible-study' morons is the reason kristian America is so unbelievably stupid. Schools are the very LAST place there should be any hint of it.

Depends on the indoctrination.

How about mine...

You have an absolute moral claim, a natural right, to your, and no one else's, life, liberty, and property, so: mind your own business and keep your hands to yourself.

...is this mind controlly too?

Oh wow. That's a terrific counterargument. Generic words salads are so inspiring. I've completely changed my mind now (or have 'you' changed 'your' mind?? Can't work that out )

ps. Don't forget the mayonnaise.

Yep, pleasure talkin' to you veg...let's do it again...in a year or two.

So the 'victim card' strategy/mentality rears its ugly head again. Tsk tsk. Do you have convenient coughing fits after every argument that your wife has won (probably all of them)? Asking on behalf of a friend.

- All children are indoctrinated. Their little heads are empty and must be filled with the proper things.

- The proper things are not how to be a little terrorist. That usually gets indoctrinated, out.

- Later, the child comes of age and questions everything, including the content of the indoctrination, whatever that indoctrination may have been.

- For example, the new adult inquires, “Self, must I always say please and thank you? If I always say please and thank you to everyone as I was taught, and if I call a thug a gentleman as a result of that, does not my indoctrination make me a fool?”

- And then the youth begins to philosophize … as a result of self-questioning.

- I know you know all this … but knowing may as well not exist if not applied.
- The application in this case?

- Teach the little rascals right, then they can question that teaching that was done through indoctrination, on their own later, since they’re going to question everything they know and were taught anyway, and hopefully not run off a cliff as a result.

- Such questioning, and answers, will come naturally and be much less complicated without life-altering, elective cosmetic surgery to gum up the works.

- At some point children develop the capacity to question themselves, for themselves, no matter the content of the indoctrination, although I hear those of younger generations are now taking their parents along on job interviews.

Hey Henry. Good to see your thoughts again.

Figured I'd elaborate on this insight of yours and chat up accelafine.

Op is nonsense, the 10 commandments is not all just basic morality. Don't say the lord's name in vain, honour the Sabbath - these are clearly religious and only make sense in a religious context.

So? Goodness is common to many aspects of life.

The constitution does not prohibit religion.

The constitution prohibits the prohibition of religion.

The US was not founded on terroristic values, so those are not posted in the Louisiana classrooms, to indoctrinate the little children.

With that comment, your nonsense is attempting to make reality fit into the arbitrary, conceptual boundaries and divisions of a template.

Those were certainly words.
