WorldNetDaily sounds the alarm over a gay-friendly curriculum unit used by some California public schools. Apparently some of the materials in the curriculum make explicit references to religion. Reporters expose the subversive (and ungrammatical) question, "Does your culture, religion or family have any similar coming-of-age rites of passage (quinceañera, bat/bar mitzvah, prom)?... Do these cultural events encourage gender choice or reinforce gender expectations?" The curriculum also says that "some Native American religions honor individuals who 'embody feminine and masculine qualities' as 'a third gender, beyond man and woman.'" Luckily the Pacific Justice Institute and Focus on the Family will be keeping a close eye on this issue to "investigate whether any opt-out laws are being violated." According to the creators' website, these films are not intended for classroom use but rather for student groups, though they do include some discussion guides aimed at teachers.

From the piece: "1. Recognize that knowing a lot of stuff won't do you much good unless you can do something with what you know by turning it into an argument. 2. Pay close attention to what others are saying and writing and then summarize their arguments and assumptions in a recognizable way. Work especially on summarizing the views that go most against your own. 3. As you summarize, look not only for the thesis of an argument, but for who or what provoked it -- the points of controversy. 4. Use these summaries to motivate what you say and to indicate why it needs saying. Don't be afraid to give your own opinion, especially if you can back it up with reasons and evidence, but don't disagree with anything without carefully summarizing it first... [T]he better you get at entering the conversation by summarizing it and putting in your own oar, the more you'll get out of your college education."

Descripton: "Real Lives 2010 is a truly unique, content rich and empathy-building real world, real life simulation that challenges your life skills (not your hand-eye coordination) as you make difficult, high-stakes choices that lead to your success, or failure. You might be born anyone, anywhere on Earth. You might die as an infant, you might make it to old age. You might be able to marry the person of your dreams, and have a rewarding job, or you could be stuck in poverty. Be born, live an exciting life, and die. Then do it again. And again. Learn about the world as you live your Real Lives around the world, one life-altering decision at a time. Experience life as a: Peasant farmer in Bangladesh -- Factory worker in Brazil -- Policeman in Nigeria -- Lawyer in the United States -- [or] Computer operator in Poland."
