This topic is of interest to me as I do think we ought to work on how best to manage diversity in our public schools. We have kids there whose parents are liberals, conservatives, atheists, Christians, Muslims, and (based on this website) apparently those of radicalized Christians as well.
How does a public school manage this all?
No matter how silly someone's beliefs (take the radicalized Christian view that homosexuality is sinful and not simply a biological variation) - should they or should they NOT be allowed to steep their own kids in it? So long as their kids do not taunt or harass fellow students, seems like it should be acceptable.
I think there must be a happy medium. Using homosexuality as an example, couldn't schools simply say there are a range of beliefs about it ranging from this to that? Go talk to your parents about their beliefs?
Would this please the radicalized Christians?
