This is humanist/homosexual propaganda at its worst. An attempt to convince young people that same sex relationships are normal and that marriage and the family are to be shunned. Its seethes with hatred toward God, toward the Holy Bible, and toward Christians in general (unless, of course, one is a Christian in name only and goes along with this skewed philosophy). To not allow ones children to read this book would not be censorship, but good parenting. Children don't always recognize poison when they see it, and therefore it is the job of the parents to protect them from consuming it.

What hatred. Also, Christianity is humanistic in nature. Following the words of Jesus, that is, not typolatry, as he himself condemned it.
Frankly, I'd rather see kids healthy than see them getting STIs from poor education on the topic of sex. As we've seen from the statistics of "abstinence education," kids are gonna have sex anyway. Even if it's not vaginal, it's still sex and can pose a risk of infection. Educate the children, or let them believe that anal or oral sex won't get them infected. It's your call, Captain Ignorance!
Quick! Hidez teh kidz! Teh Ghey Agendaz iz after demz!
Why don't you go all the way and have a good old-fashioned book burnin'?
And have you actually read the book?
Stooopid Fundy!
...and that marriage and the family are to be shunned.
It's not marriage and family that we humanists shun -- it's the Levitical breeding-slave contract to which we object, as well as the notion that its issue are livestock.
BTW, sexual orientation is not a philosophy. And Jesus was the first Humanist rabbi around Jerusalem...if Hillel the Elder didn't beat him to it.
Its seethes with hatred toward God, toward the Holy Bible, and toward Christians Levites in general....
Fixed.
Well, the Bible does say that you can't lie with another man. But Jesus said that you he who is without sin cast the stones.
So only straight Christians should be commenting on this thread. You gay christians should be praying that God help you fight Satan's temptations.
I know that when I was in summer camp when I was a kid, Satan got me thinking all kinds of crazy things about some of the other campers, but I prayed over it and God took that curosity from me.
Fun fact: homosexuals hit puberty and find themselves attracted to the same sex. Histories of sexual abuse are quite rare, and nobody 'chooses' to be gay. It's hormones, pheremones and genuine affection.
Deal with it.

bluelithium, that book is terrifying. Wow.
TBiR, you're either a fairly amusing Poe, or you have some serious issues.
"You know what kid's book I think is really the poison? Richard Cohen's Alfie's Home.

how is that poison?
it's probably a book some school counselor keeps in his office to help kids with similar experiences.
shit like this happens to kids, they need to know how to handle it.
It's about as normal to be homosexual as it is to be American. Both groups make up about 5 percent of Earth's population.
Besides, you don't need to convince young people to accept others. People are (in general) born empathic and sharing; you have to be taught egoism and bigotry.
A same-sex relationship can lead to both marriage and family. No need to shun any of them.
Some homosexuals are Christians, and they hardly seethe with hatred towards God or the Holy Bible, or towards Christians in general.
I'd say that homophobia and bigotry are much more harmful poisons than humanism and tolerance.

A family shunned. A family going into meltdown so bad, it becomes more toxic than Chernobyl; certainly P.R.-wise.

@yo
You haven't actually read what that book is about haven't you? It says and suggests that:
- Homoseyuality doesn't exist, it's just emotional deprivation from the father
- Homosexuals are all Pedophiles
- Sexual abusers should be easily forgiven
I can't think of many things more toxic for a child (and especially a child which later discovers homosexual feelings).
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that you are not actually believing those things though.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
