Commentator Claims Public School Play Paves Way for Homosexual Agenda

(AgapePress) - A conservative radio host says a militant homosexual group is using a play about the death of a homosexual college student to indoctrinate public school.
Today students at a Fort Lauderdale, Florida, high school will be performing The Laramie Project, a play about the murder of University of Wyoming student Matthew Shepard. But South Florida talk radio host Steve Kane believes the production is more than just a play -- he feels it is an attempt by the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) to become more active in the public school system.
According to Steve Kane, The Laramie Project attacks Christians and makes them all appear to resemble Fred Phelps, a minister known for his message of hate. And he observes that, in the play, those objecting to the homosexual lifestyle are represented by the two men who violently killed Shepard.
Kane says those promoting the play claim that it is a play about intolerance. "And it is," he says, "but it's really a play about the intolerance of Christians, and it stereotypes Christians in a very negative way."
The radio host contends that the school play is a tool being used by GLSEN to "indoctrinate students with their radical agenda." He says it is "a very subtle form of propaganda [through which the homosexual activists] now hope to get discussion going in the classrooms about the 'joys of the gay lifestyle'" -- a tactic he finds "pretty abhorrent."
Kane is well known for his website's "GLSEN Files," which expose that pro-homosexual group's goal of promoting sexual perversion in the schools. Now he is urging other concerned members of the community not to let GLSEN get away with using this play as a Trojan horse to get their agenda inside the walls of the schools.
The conservative commentator suggests that parents take immediate action when they recognize this kind of assault against their family values. When it starts happening, he says, parents have to "speak up; they have to go to the school board. They have to write the school boards. And if the gay activists want to call names, that's fine. Let them call names."
Regardless of any backlash from the homosexual community, Kane says parents must show courage in speaking out. He also asserts that mothers and fathers must be actively involved with their children at all times, because "how do we know what's going on in school except by open communication with our kids?"
Steve Kane's radio show airs in South Florida on WWNN on weekday mornings, and is rebroadcast during the evening on that station, and evenings and weekends via several cable outlets across the state.
