Coalition Reported Working to Remove Sexually Explicit Materials From Schools

Why Bible-Believing Christians Should Care

Scripture is unambiguous about the seriousness of exposing children to sin, and any organized effort to keep sexually explicit material out of classrooms and school libraries aligns with the biblical call to protect the innocence of children. Christians should note, however, that this report names no specific school, district, or state, so parents cannot yet know whether their own community is affected. The underlying issue — what is being placed in front of children in the name of education — is one every congregation and school board should be able to answer with specifics, not vague assurances.

But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea. — Matthew 18:6

From the book

As the Chapter 8b case study showed, the capture of parental authority usually happens by reframing morality as safety. Activists introduce concepts of gender theory or sexual liberation into schools. They do not call it moral instruction, which would be the parent's domain. They call it comprehensive health education, which is the expert's domain. Then when a parent objects to explicit material, the institution answers that these materials were selected by credentialed experts and the parent is not an expert, so the objection is invalid.
