On Mix It Up at Lunch Day, schoolchildren around the country are encouraged to hang out with someone they normally might not speak to.

The program, started 11 years ago by the Southern Poverty Law Center and now in more than 2,500 schools, was intended as a way to break up cliques and prevent bullying.

But this year, the American Family Association, a conservative evangelical group, has called the project “a nationwide push to promote the homosexual lifestyle in public schools” and is urging parents to keep their children home from school on Oct. 30, the day most of the schools plan to participate this year.

It is sad that anyone sees trying to stop bullying as an agenda to promote homosexuality because that means that they see bullying as a way to prevent homosexuality. The article goes on to say that…

Although the suggested activities for Mix It Up at Lunch Day do not expressly address gay and lesbian students, the law center itself promotes equal treatment for gays and lesbians and that philosophy then informs the school program, he said.

“Anti-bullying legislation is exactly the same,” Mr. Fischer [director of issue analysis for the AFA] said. “It’s just another thinly veiled attempt to promote the homosexual agenda. No one is in favor of anyone getting bullied for any reason, but these anti-bullying policies become a mechanism for punishing Christian students who believe that homosexual behavior is not something that should be normalized.”

But stating your religious beliefs is not bullying. You can say that you feel the being LGBT is a sin and that they are going to hell, but repeating it over and over to a person is bullying. Somehow, they have twist religious freedom to mean freedom to harass an other person religious beliefs.

In addition, bullying not just limited to LGBT students, bullies attack students who are different, special needs students, overweight students, students who are too tall or too short, shy students and the list goes on and on. Bullying also affects the bystander, other students feel guilty for not helping the victim and they also become intimidated by the bully when they see that no one will help them if they are bullied.
