Today is the start of No Name-Calling Week. It is aimed at giving teachers the resources to teach why it is bad to slur, insult, bully or tease other kids about their appearance, ethnicity, or whatever. The have a video and handouts with discussion topics. They have an essay from girl who was teased because she had glasses and was Jewish. A bunch of “teachable moments” for the classroom and how we all should get along.

Surely no one would have a problem with this, right?

Not so fast.

The Concerned Women for America goes on record as saying that this is sinister and that it is wrong to be nice to people who are different.

This parallels Jame Dobson’s outing of SpongeBob SquarePants. He got chided for picking on SpongeBob SquarePants, but then clarified that his problem was with “an organization that’s determined to promote the acceptance of homosexuality.” Not promoting homosexuality, but merely promoting acceptance of homosexuality. Not only is homosexuality a sin, but it is also wrong to even be accepting of the sinner.

Therefore friends it is okay to continue to divide and conquer America and feel contempt for your fellow man. It is the right thing to do, regardless of what Jesus said.
