That’s very interesting. I suppose then the parents were acting reasonably, and the school is using the child and her parents to prove they are True Christians. Dear Parents of this child, I apologize for calling you idiots. Sincerely, TriPolar ---

The school is plotting to keep the children of same-sex couples out. I don’t think that is very secret. Regards, Shodan ---

> [@TriPolar](#): > > Why did a same sex couple send their child to a Christian school? Was it not obvious that it was the kind of place that would act in that way? I send my son to a private Christian school, and there is at least one same sex parenting couple there, who I know because they also attend my church. It is not always obvious where a school falls on the spectrum. ---

They enrolled their child in a school that is/was going to teach their child, for years, that her parents are evil and will burn in hell forever. The school hadn’t updated their rule book when the kid started attending. Only after she’d been there a while did they start discriminating against THAT SORT of sinner–& their offspring. ---

> [@Morgenstern](#): > > _“We don’t condone any sinful lifestyles.”_ Generally speaking, church-based/religious-based educational institutions in the Western world (i.e., most of them of pre-Enlightenment foundation, and post-Enlightenment a great many) have no very consistent track record for inquiring into the moral character of students’ parents. **Nor could they survive if they did.** ---
