Okay, I can't post dolphin tits, but I can post this, and it's really important.



[not written by me, but I couldn't say it better]
Imagine you’re 16 and you’ve just realized you might be gay. You’re being bullied, so reach out to your school for help – they send you to a chaplain. He says that being gay is a disease and you need to be cured.

Sound outrageous? The Australian government has just decided that’s what should happen in schools all over the country. The Federal Budget was just released with $245 million to send chaplains from anti-gay religious groups into schools instead of qualified social workers.There’s still a chance to stop it. The Opposition is about to decide if they should pass the budget in full, seek to amend it or block it entirely. If this secret religious agenda doesn’t make headlines, it could be forgotten and passed without debate.

Help raise the alarm and stop tax money from being spent to bully vulnerable students. We only have days.

tldr; Australia wants to bully LGBT teens with tax payer money.

Neither ACCESS Ministries nor Your Dream Inc., the two organizations that you've identified as "anti-gay religious groups", seem remotely hateful.

Wether they are hateful or not is irrelevant. There is no need for religion in a school setting.

What I've gathered suggests that, at least ACCESS ministries isn't inherently hateful. However, based on a sermon transcript you can find here, they definitely believe homosexuality is a sin. I don't think they intend to be hurtful to LGBT teens, but they definitely intend to council them on the "sinfulness" of their ways and alienate them intentionally or otherwise.

BTW, Mclean Bible Church is ACCESS ministries. Same people.

Guys -- this is probably better suited for the Off-Topic section. I'd suggest creating a thread over there if you want to keep this particular discussion going.
