Religious Freedom for Some (?)

This tells you a lot.

Alpha News reports that the St. Louis Park School District will now allow parents to opt out of their children from any curriculum that promotes LGBTQ ideology.

The move by the district comes after the First Liberty Institute and True North Legal sent a letter on behalf of six Muslim families that stated forcing Muslims to learn LGBTQ lessons is a violation of the First Amendment.

The six families previously requested the school to notify them of when LGBTQ-centered lessons were being taught so they could opt their children out of those particular lessons.

In a statement, the Liberty Institute shared, “The St. Louis Park (MN) public schools are allowing several Somali American children to opt-out of sexually based materials being taught in English classes after the law firms sent two letters explaining how the district’s previous denial of opt-outs violated the First Amendment and state law.”...

There are TWO reasons that this is interesting.

1)  What the Hell are 'sexually-based materials' doing in ENGLISH classes?  and

2)  No Catholics nor Lutherans joined this suit?

Signs of the times, friends!
