A conservative expert on sexual orientation is exposing the real agenda behind an upcoming event called ‘No Name Calling Week.’ The weeklong observance is the brainchild of the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Educators Network (GLSEN) and is based on The Misfits, a book by James Howe legitimizing homosexual behavior in middle school.
The stated objective of ‘No Name Calling Week,’ which targets children in grades five through eight, is to highlight the destructive nature of name-calling and bullying in schools. But sexual orientation researcher and columnist Dr. Warren Throckmorton says, ironically, the national spokesperson for the event has displayed little tolerance or acceptance for those who object to the homosexual lifestyle.
According to Throckmorton, several years ago GLSEN founder Kevin Jennings used language in an address that might have gotten him expelled from many schools. ‘He swore a number of times in the speech,’ the researcher says, ‘and one time, directly at those he labeled the religious right. And there’s a part of his speech [in which] he said that the religious right could just drop dead.’
