The fact that leglalisation has been consider must surely indicate that it IS becoming acceptable. Oh an also in Shinto, homosexuality is considered a superior form of love.  |
I dont think Shintoism has a large follwoing in the UK.
Look at some religions and the way they treat women, would it make it ok to abuse women because another religion thinks it as OK? No didnt think so.
Look at it from the other side, in this world of intolerence is it fair to adopt a child if you are a gay couple knowing the treatment that child will receive at school. Bullying is a problem for most children, the children certainly dont need more "ammunition" to taunt their pray with.
Remember we dont live in an ideal world, homosexuality is still considered to be wrong by many people. And most kids would love to have ammunition to call the "weird" kid a ******.
I personally dont think that this incident (of pupils reading a book about same sex couples faling in love) was appropriate, at 9 years old I dont even think teaching about hetrosexual relationships is appreopriate.
