A group of high school students react to Fred Phelps and family with song.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEiwBCpi … r_embedded

Do you think we should just start singing when faced with self-righteous mud slinging on the forum?

  If you're comparing the Phelps group to ANYONE here on this forum, I'd say you're way outta line on that.
  I'm not aware of anyone on this site who says (or condones) the hogwash that that "church" group says or makes signs saying.
  
  Hating the sin does NOT equal to hating the people who engage in sin.
  
  With that said, it's still abominable for a school to promote homosexuality in ANY fashion, whether it's a seductively "peaceful" one or an aggressive agenda.

  I vehemently disagree.
  
  If hating the sin is the issue, then why is violence thrown at people by those who say they only hate sin not the sinner? It's the same old argument about abortion clinics. Sick, very twisted "Christians" MURDER people who work in abortion clinics. How is that murder ANY different than murders being committed in abortion clinics? Murdering to stop murder is insanity.

  So are you admitting that abortion is murder?
  
  And the difference is that the unborn child is totally helpless and innocent.
  
  According to your analogy, I suppose there'd be NO punishment at all for murder in any form. The laws of man (and God) would be ineffectual and might as well be done away with entirely, if that's the case.

Shadesbreathposted 14 years ago
It's fine in a sort of surface, hippy, feel-good way, but it ignores a lot. For starters, it begins by calling the other group a "hate group" which means it's not a piece about acceptance despite what it tries to be. It's only acceptance if you agree with them, otherwise it's using inflamatory rhetoric to not accept the others.

And did the school let the kids who side with the "hate group" walk across the street and stand with them? Or were those kids shamed into silence? Given that the principle talked about strategizing in advance, it sounds like the school is taking political sides and using its authority to imbue the kids with whom they share ideology with "leadership" skills and power, facilitating one agenda or another. Frankly, if my kids went there, I'd rather the faculty spent more time advance planning on how to improve the curriculum.

  Well, if someone or some group hates a group of people based on an immutable characteristic about them, that is about as clear a definition of "hate group" as you can get. Decent people don't have to tolerate or accept hate as a perfectly acceptable alternative, which is what let the Nazis rise to power. They say they hate gays (or that God hates gays, or Jesus hates the sin, or whatever other b.s. proxy that sounds reasonable to themselves). They are a hate group. (One that's still allowed to protest peacefully in public)
  
  I have a hard time imagining that the school, despite being in a socially progressive area (Palo Alto), would not allow students who sympathized with WBC to go stand with them. The fact that such students, if any, were not profiled in this video doesn't mean they didn't exist.
  
  And I'm not sure why experiences like this, in which a large group of students chose to respond to a hate group's protest with a peaceful one themselves, is in contradiction with a curriculum. For many of the participating students, this was a character-building experience. I suppose kids are supposed to keep their heads buried in textbooks during the schoolday?

  Shadesbreathposted 14 years agoin reply to this
  I agree with you that they are a hate group, but that's because I have an opinion on the matter. My point is that folks on the forums here are acting like that video was about acceptance, when it's not. It's about unity amongst people who share a belief system against another group that harbors another, and the school is facilitating it.
  
  My understanding is that that is a publicly funded school. I don't want the schools getting into politics, especially politics that are based in or set in active oposition to elements of religion. I might be happy with the protest they make today, but what if they come out for somethign else tomorrow that I don't agree with? It's a slippery slope argument, I grant, but why set the precedent. Equal time arguments can be made and the whole thing becomes distracting from the fact that our kids can't read or write or do math on par with half or more of the world.
  
  You're right, it doesn't mean they didnt' exist. However, it certainly doesn't mean they were alowed to exist or made to feel welcome to exist, and I can only go on what I saw, which did not include anything like that. And we are talkign HIGH SCHOOL here, the emotionally powered hormonal core of peer pressure and social ostracization. I imagine the kids who believe differently, even if not hate filled like the WBC, felt like they needed to hide their feelings in the closet. Which is fine, they deserve to be ashamed of their feelings at that age. It's only fair. Right? (And I'm only trying to make a point... my problem is with balance, and politics in school. I hope you get that. Parents should raise kids, not government funded schools.)
  
  So only the students protest was peacful? I think I need to go back and watch the video again. I think I missed something.
  
  And yes, I think in HIGH SCHOOL, kids should keep their heads buried in textbooks. They are too young and emotional and easily manipulated to be whipped into activism. Their views are the views they are spoon fed during the tiny window of their lives (either by parents or by someone else), and they are easy to make do things. How else do you think they get young people to run off to battle century after century. It all plays on naivete. It's far worse (easier) in high school than in college, where it's still the same, but you got to cut them loose sometime.

  Honestly, Brenda, I really only want people to actually communicate instead of so much rhetorical stuff. On both sides of all the hot issues, everyone is so emotional. And I get it. In this particular issue, on side side we have homosexuals being told they are abominable and lots of really horribly mean, cruel things. On the other hand, we have people who truly believe that God wants them to live a certain way - GOD!. Those are two seriously powerful sets of motivations.
  
  The only way anything will ever be solved is if the sides talk. Slowly and carefully over time. And listen. And that is NEVER going to happen when the TALK is made with words like "abomination" and "hate."
  
  That's why I step in like I do in forums sometimes. You'll love me on this thread and hate me on another. I just keep hoping someday real communication takes place.

  Shadesbreathposted 14 years agoin reply to this
  
  Well, I think therein lies the rub. Using terms like "never" is a tough place from which to start working for peace.
  
  The idea that something should "never be validated" not only assumes an absolute truth (and I get that your belief system gives you access to that, which is fine; I won't argue that now), but it creates a scenario where in there is either "valid" or "invalid." A binary.
  
  In most moral issues, there aren't really binaries, there are real life stories, told one at a time, that start to infuse the "good" or "evil" easy compartmentalization with the fact that life isn't as neat and tidy as a cozy little binary that fits like warm stockings on the cold feet of someone unwilling to live in true peace on a planet where there is more than one system of beliefs.

  ...insofar that thinking that the WBC's views are immoral and tasteless. Remember, they're not only an anti-gay group (fewer people had a problem with them when they were only saying "God Hates Fags" - they ran aground of majority opinion only when they started picketing (straight) servicemembers' funerals.) My point is that you can find anti-gay people who still hate the WBC, as Brenda demonstrates here. Yes, it is. I wasn't aware that feelings about gay people was a political issue. Would it have been any different if KKK members were protesting blacks and Jews instead? Are the KKK Left or Right?I understand and agree with your overall sentiment, but I doubt very much Gunn has any issue with literacy or academic achievement. When I was a kid, in a situation like this, we might have had discussions in the classroom about what was going on, which might have been more fruitful and which might have not provoked a backlash.
  Well, Shadesbreath, if in-classroom discussion had taken place instead of a counterprotest, the same sort of ostracization of minority views could have taken place. We don't know to what degree the administration encouraged students to respect each others' views, but from I see, I don't see an angry, venomous tone to the counterprotest (unlike, obviously, WBC's protest). No, sorry; WBC's protest was peaceful, too. I meant that the response to protests can often result in things thrown at the protesters, or at least angry shouting.
  I understand where you're coming from, but, again, I don't see an undercurrent of impassioned activism or specific agenda among all the counterprotesters. But I would honestly have preferred an open discussion in the classroom instead. Even as a gay liberal myself, the "kumbaya" aspect of the protest made me feel a bit uneasy.

  I think you and I are pretty close on all this except that I just don't like publically funded HIGH schools getting involved in politics. And I believe that I really do know what you mean when you say, "I wasn't aware that feelings about gay people is a political issue." And I agree with what I think you are saying, that being gay isn't a political decision. It's just a fact of being. I totally get that.
  
  But I also think you know what I mean when I say that what is going on at that school IS politics because it's about the political realities that are taking place around gay marriage and gay rights as reflected by the legistlative process in this country. That IS politics.
  
  And, as I said before, I just don't think a high school filled with impressionable, ignorant teenagers is the place to wage that war... especially since everyone is paying taxes for that school. Haters, non-haters, dis-interested, distracted and LGBT alike.

I think the error in thinking that has been coming unraveled lately is when people link things together in their minds that have nothing to do with each other like:

sin = sexuality or sexual preferences

sex = nasty

free thought = immoral

sexual preference = reflection of your worth as a human

and so on - these are the kind of equations young people now don't necessarily come up with when they are reasoning about an issue. The trick is to get people of all ages to actually train their reasoning power and use it when they make decisions about things like "who is good"
