Teresa Cepeda gives a detailed account of the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education conference in order to demonstrate how the homosexual agenda is being introduced into Catholic schools around the country. The October 30 through November 1 conference of the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network GLSEN attracted nearly 1, teachers, administrators and activists to gloat on the group's gains in schools and to share tactics for pushing the gay agenda in schools, getting around opposition from parents and school boards.

Parents and their elected representatives on school boards were identified by a number of speakers as "the enemy," including keynote speaker Suzanne Pharr, a homosexual and racial activist from Plant City, Florida. Pharr said that the current agitation for the gay agenda in schools is as important to their movement as the school desegregation court decision was to the civil rights movement.

Right wing Vatican officials and preVatican II Catholics are the hateful, vocal minority trying to prevent progress in human rights. Church sexual teachings are superstitious, based on fear rather than theology or revelation. With helping from a willing bishop, John Cummings of Oakland, Schexnayder and his group have made the diocese's nine Catholic high schools gay-friendly.

Lienert's business card and brochures for the Safe Schools Program were put out on a display table for a "queer youth" consortium of which the Safe Schools Program is a part. The program is, according to the brochure, conducted "in collaboration with the Center for Human Development" a radical gay organization. Services offered to "gay, lesbian, and questioning youth and families" include: staff in services, classroom workshop "Interactive presentations that help students explore myths and stereotypes, sexual identity, and family diversity.

Members of the audience were first asked to identify themselves and describe their work in Catholic schools. Kim Eisman, a male teacher at Ursuline Academy, an all-girls high school in Cincinnati, Ohio, noted that his school had been very "progressive and aggressive" on this issue, beginning about four years ago, when lesbian students demanded to be allowed to take same-sex dates to dances.

The school has a Sexual Orientation Awareness Committee, which is currently attempting to proselytize other, less "open-minded" Cincinnati Catholic schools. In response to Eisman's description of his school's activities, Schexnayder responded that a Cincinnati bishop, Carl Modell, had recently contacted him to obtain resources on the subject. John Otterford, a religion teacher at Notre Dame High School in Belmont, California, noted that he is trying to get his administration to do faculty in services on gay issues.

Greg Miller, a teacher and campus minister at St. Martin Mayer from Woodside Priory School, a Benedictine school in Portola Valley, California, complained that religion teachers were expected to teach that "homosexual activity is wrong.

But, complained Mayer, "I am still concerned about what somehow we are expected, being Catholic schools, to present to students, and how psychologically-damaging that can be, and trying to find some way of making our curriculum acceptable. Later in the session, she presented a more detailed account of gay activism at her school. Amity Buxton, who formed the International Straight Spouse Network after her husband "came out," expressed great hatred toward but little knowledge of Church teachings, which she described as "anti-gay.

Later in the talk, Buxton claimed that "Vatican II changed the definition of marriage it's not for procreation anymore. Schexnayder began his talk by describing "a big leap" in the Church's view of homosexuality in recent years, especially as demonstrated by the U. He acknowledged that the Church continues to officially call homosexuals to chastity, but stated that the Church's definition of the term "chastity" has been updated.

Schexnayder said he would present two models of gay-friendly schools, starting with his own diocesan high schools. The diocesan superintendent of schools, he noted, is very supportive. Schexnayder's High School Youth Project helps develop "welcoming communities" for gay students. He noted that they do not currently use the terms "bisexual" and "transgender. Two areas of focus of the High School Youth Project are working with school staff and re working the curriculum.

Schexnayder gives staff in services on gay and lesbian issues or Always Our Children. He says that they stress to administrators that there are legal risks, such as under Title IX of the Civil Rights Act, if students are not protected from "harassment. This is wrong, says Schexnayder, because it implies that homosexuality is a behavior that is chosen. He noted that he has spoken about gay issues to high school classes in ethics, health, lifestyle, psychology and other subjects.
