More troubling developments from religionists trying to use their beliefs to justify spreading bigotry.
"[Mrs Justice Eady] qualified these rights and warned they were not without limits.
Specifically this relates to when “such manifestation or expression” infringed on the rights and freedoms of others."

We at GOS say: if you don’t feel comfortable with your kids learning the school’s curriculum in its entirety, then you do not have your childrens’ best interests at heart.

Denying knowledge to your children will only grant you temporary power over them: when they learn the truth they will not appreciate your insulting and paternalistic approach.
