A lot of people on the right complain about Islam but I think it will be great way to purge liberalism that has ruined society.

It isn't teaching morality, it is teaching tolerance of people different to you,

Nope. Thats not what its teaching. If it was teaching tolerance of people that are different to you it would teach children to accept people who subscribe to religions that find homosexuality and transsexuality and other forms of marxist ideals wrong. It teaches to be intolerant and not accepting of such religions.

This is an indoctrination of children in leftism. That is all it is. It teaches children to be accepting of leftist principles as facts. It teaches children to be intolerant towards views that do not conform with leftism.

This is has nothing to do with tolerance. This an indoctrination of children in marxist, communist interpretations of reality.

As a Transperson I resent this comment, I didn’t choose to be trans. Do you think I wanted a childhood filled with doubt and fear of how others might react, a childhood of confusion and having to hide who I was. If I could have chosen to not be Trans I would a normal guy or girl would be a much more preferable life. No rational person would choose to be born as an extreme minority with little understanding of its concepts, which is treated as some kind of social disease by most religious groups.
This is what clinches it for me about most religions they preach peace etc but they have no tolerance for anything they don’t understand, they are ruled by their fear from lack of understanding and preach hate and exclusion to those unfortunate enough to be born in such a minority. Some message of peace

Am surprised they can read at all, oh wait they must be male woman are not allowed education in Muslim run nations. Fortunately not all Muslims subscribe to this medieval way of thinking which again shows you can’t even agree with yourselves, I have heard certain imams slating Christianity because it has split as though there is only one kind of Islam. Maybe they don’t accept their Sunni/Shiite brothers and sisters as Muslims who knows. As I said inconsistencies and hypercritical dogma.

What has being a Trans got to do with Marxism? I have never heard such rubbish, I am a Trans woman and I 100% believe communism is a flawed system. Teaching children tolerance is not a leftist policy it is sensible, if we all did it we might stop the violence in the world which derives from history between nations that had previously been in conflict. Being accepting of others is not against Islam it is tching tolerance of those who believe in any faith. The only thing it is showing intolerance to is intolerance itself.

Accidentally. sorry man!
Thats the problem with growing up in a heteronormative society, where everyone just assumes you're cishet until told otherwise. When I have kids I'm not going to raise them as cishet as in I won't pressure them into being straight or try and force them into gender-associated stereotypes. This is absolutely terrible and whilst you may not agree with it, you still have to be tolerant. I don't agree with people who say gambling is good, but that doesn't mean I say gambing "doesn't exist".
what's the problem with parents asking the school to teach their kids what they want them to be taught lol

No worries, I don't think the CT saw it as an issue so it won't be on your community record. :smile:

Because it's not up to the parents, it's up to the Department of Education, the local council and the school.

as a muslim, i think it's important to develop a level of tolerance between societies. for far too long i've had negative connotiations about gay people and admittedly do make the occasional jokes that would be deemed distasteful.. but it just stems from growing up with that negative stigma.

if we can break it from the offset.. would be great. we need to be more toleratant towards people who are different - otherwise we just all go to ****.

you don't have to agree with people's choices but you have to be tolerant.
Your statement would make more sense if it began "Despite being a Muslim", as what you are complaining about is inherently part of Islamic ideology.

It's like saying "As a socialist I think it's important to dismantle the welfare state and put all public services out to private tender".

With the issue in the OP

I am actually with the islamic oppinions in the OP on this.

Not the homaphobia stuff... but I agree 100% with the principle that sexuality should not be taught to young children. Its far to young, and parents should have the right to decide what they do or don't expose their children to.

Its easy to say 'well take them out of the school then!' - but in practise un-auothrised absense can lead to fines/punishment.. and changing schools is not always an option. If this is a national/regional policy, its likely to take place in all the state schools, except religious schools, and parents may not want their child in a religious school, so its much harder to avoid then you would think.

Ok so we grow up in a society where parents assume their kids are cishet. You're saying it's "too young" to teach their children about sexualities but those same parents are the parents that ask their son "is that your girllllllfriendddddddddd????!!?!?!" whenever he looks at a girl. You're saying that's okay but it's not okay to ask their son "is that your boyyyyyyyfriendddddd?!?!?!?!??" if he looks at a boy? Being LGBT+ is totally normal and it's not something that should be taught, it should be obvious from birth. Kids aren't taught about being straight, so why should they be taught about being LGBT+? Being LGBT+ should be as normal as being straight and everyone should be accepting of it.

Lol the irony of this. “You must tolerate homosexuality, and go against your beliefs, or we will fail you and do our best to ruin your life” so tolerant lol
So merely tolerating homosexuality goes against Islam?

Of course it does. Homosexuality s considered wrong in Islam, like many other sins.

So you are admitting that Islam is homophobic?

So Islam is intolerant of any behaviour or belief that is "wrong in Islam".
