Probably 0%, but let me know when you find out. The obvious thing to be noted is the fact that the support / comfort levels have taken a drastic downward turn when it comes to the LGBT issues.

This quy in the article says it best, because it is in full display on this forum:

Mean behavior is getting a pushback. I’ve heard from many parents over the years who relate their kids’ mistreatment by empowered groups of homosexual students and teachers in their schools. Even the slightest disagreement with their agenda often results in mocking, scoffing, rumor-spreading, and harassment. The more influence in schools the “LGBTQ” crowd gets, the fewer boundaries of decency and civility they honor. And in college, this vicious treatment goes on steroids. Many are fed up with being treated like second-class citizens or watching others treated in this way.

That seems to be the case. When asked for specifics of the “gay agenda,” none are provided. Yet the term is used repeatedly, meaninglessly.

Really, Finn? What might "the slightest disagreement with their agenda" look like? Derision for displays of prejudice seems appropriate to most.

Disagreement = lack of consensus or approval.

One person might say that the Bible teaches gay sex is sinful, and you will say "no, isn't". This would create a disagreement. Do you understand this?

That kind of disagreement results in mocking, scoffing, rumor-spreading, and harassment, as can be seen here on this thread where any kind of disagreement is met with open hostility and personal attacks.

You are a broken record. I directly disproved this point and you just ignore it and push repeat. Jesus affirmed marriage as only between man and woman. Jesus also said He supported the complete OT law, every dot, every idota. That includes the laws that declared homosexuality to be an abomination. Furthmore, argument from silence is a logical fallacy.

Jesus preached a hard stance against sin. Does this verse sound really loving and accepting of sin to you?

Wails the whiny, impotent, soundly-refuted, fundie loser.

Have a nice day!

He preached many things, including those things which got Him and all the Apostles killed in various places around the world. People were offended by His message then, and they are offended by it today, as can be seen from your posts, and the posts of other promoters of the gay agenda / propaganda.

The effect that letting everyone know what your sexual proclivities are, unsolicited & incessantly , is better characterized
as one of annoyance & rejection rather than" anger" .
The to much information effect .
Such obvious insecurity .
The effect is comprehensively the same when heterosexuals are just as insistent in foisting knowledge of their sexual proclivities upon others by the way .
Nothing unique about it .

2. If parents are uncomfortable with a situation, does that mean the situation is wrong? What justification is there for ending the teaching of LGBT history, for one example, even if it makes some parents uncomfortable?

People have been uncomfortable with civil rights advancements throughout history. Progress marches on.

I’m still very curious about your use of “gay agenda” and what indoctrination specifically means in schools and movies.
He's a born liar, a product of his father.

John 8:44
He is shown the facts and keeps repeating lies--and attributing the results to those of us with the mythical "gay" agenda.

But don't doubt for a moment that the heart of finn lies at the center of all that is despicable about evangelical christianity.

But then, I think no one any longer doubts that an accurate description of the spiritual Finn is a large grey shapeless form that likes the practice of starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory remarks with the aim of provoking an emotional response or disrupting a discussion.

Now jeffie is as smart as your local rock, but he is more honest in his misguided assessment of the bible, sex, and God. Finn is as sly as a snake, and tries to slither under his rock when the light get shined upon him, as you have done here.
