SOME HIGHLIGHTS OF SB 777:


Now, under the guise of "nondiscrimination", every California public school is required to teach children that homosexual and bisexual lifestyles are normal, acceptable, and the moral equivalent of biblical heterosexuality. This indoctrination begins in pre-kindergarten and continues as long as a student remains in a California public school or a school receiving direct or indirect financial assistance from the state.

As bad as this is, there is more poison lurking in California's new legislation's definition of "gender." In fact, the definition actually enshrines in law an extreme post-modern view of "gender". Under section 210.7 of the newly enacted SB 777, California schools are now required to indoctrinate children with the following conception of "gender":

210.7. "Gender" means sex, and includes a person's gender identity and gender related appearance and behavior whether or not stereo-typically associated with the person's assigned sex at birth.

As you can see, SB 777 treats "gender" as if it is entirely "socially constructed." Thus, if a boy were to decide to adopt a gender identity as a "girl", the fact that his birth sex is male cannot be used in any way to "discriminate" against him under the "nondiscrimination" provisions of the new legislation. Consequently, there is nothing in the statutory language that would allow a school to prevent this disturbed boy from visiting the girls' locker rooms and restrooms.

While these kinds of consequences of the new California public school legislation are bad enough, the real harm to children goes far deeper. We have already become numb to the moral relativism that is taught to children in all public schools today. Now children will be told that their sexual orientation and gender are relative, too. No longer will children raised in these schools understand that God made us male and female with different, but complementary, roles. Instead, children will be taught that sexual orientation and gender are a matter of personal choice, that there are many sexual orientation and gender identity possibilities, and that they will simply have to reach their own conclusions about "what sexual orientation and gender is right for them."
