Why is sexual preference important in historical figures--I thought we weren't supposed to judge people on their sexual preferences?<br /><br />I assume by your comment that you're a troll, just trying to get my ire up. Just so you know: I'm not a member of the religious right at all, and I *still* see this as a stupid idea.Darrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15730642770935985796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-458298637398776192011-07-21T15:27:24.077-07:002011-07-21T15:27:24.077-07:00Just keep teaching kids about creationism and abst...Just keep teaching kids about creationism and abstinence and what Jesus would do.

Duh!<br /><br />You seem to suggest that their lifestyle choices were somehow affecting them with negative consequences. We can't allow that kind of judgemental thinking to taint the innocent and open minds of students.nekonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-42696240568200597112011-07-16T08:51:09.171-07:002011-07-16T08:51:09.171-07:00Will they dare address any of the negatives associ...Will they dare address any of the negatives associated with any of the diverse groups, such as the role the lifestyle of many gay men played in the spread of AIDS?DADvocatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04621021178600799126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-58977035012361551272011-07-15T18:22:07.853-07:002011-07-15T18:22:07.853-07:00and...what about the contributions to history from...and...what about the contributions to history from natural redheads, left handeds, unusually short or tall people and clowns and mimes?KauaiMarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02581543514815246743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-31952897477582081052011-07-15T15:15:25.891-07:002011-07-15T15:15:25.891-07:00Our public universities keep looking more and more...Our public universities keep looking more and more ridiculous. We had the housing bubble burst, now it's likely that higher education in our country may be the next flop. Parents and students should rightfully be asking "What exactly are we getting for our $$$?" A lot of nonsense. That's OK - just makes being a grad from one of our Nations Service Academies look better and better.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03206344574666153343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-30970292657864483182011-07-15T13:39:16.573-07:002011-07-15T13:39:16.573-07:00"...noteworthy only because they're gay, ..."...noteworthy only because they're gay, or black, or female, or Mormon, or whatever?"<br /><br />total waste of time and $$KauaiMarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02581543514815246743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-67033575808107480592011-07-15T11:42:31.150-07:002011-07-15T11:42:31.150-07:00Holy Rainbow, Batman!

But only for the correct kind of diversity, mind you.<br />And this is all necessary, or else students' degrees from UCWherever will be worth less than the paper they are printed on now (assuming that the paper passes the okay of the Environmental/Green Campus/Global Warming/Recycling committees.)pseudotsuganoreply@blogger.com
