OUR READERS WRITE Thank you for printing Mr letter in The While It aid not include the apology which had requested from him for his breach of professional ethics In his comments to the press con corning my protest It did put some matters on the record which helpful for the public to know Note the following Regarding recommended books In the libraries The decision on books Is a school decision made by the within the under the direction of the Regarding moral values we rely upon the Integrity of our MM learners the ministry of education has a research project in on teaching values 3 Regarding the of the homo sexuals o a high school the program Is a school program I believe personally that a discussion of this topic Is not out of tine It Is hoped that on these matters the parents will contact the principals of their loco I schools ho situation In this explanation by the Director of of the making processes by which the philosophy our public educational system is the decisions arc all made for us parents by the teachers and ad with the onus left on the parent to question the omniscience of the technocrats If dare to buck the intimidations the system And let it be noted that bully tactics are all too prevalent in response to any parent who does dare to disagree with the system Twice in the past month when been to meet personally with a school administrator upon my arrival I round Intimidating committee waiting for me rather than the Individual who me to meet him personally One of those occasions was in the office or the d been asked to meet Mr Singleton personally and found Instead that he had called in two aides to make it a committee of three to meet me That is a gross breach of professional ethics and a bit base bully tactics which I called to Mr Singleton attention once in that situation I call it now to the attention of the public because of Mr Singleton refusal to admit his breaches of ethics and apologize Moreocr when 1 phoned our principal a week ago on behalf of a concerned parent asking for Information regarding a rather disturbing Incident In the school my con was broken and my name given to the students with resultant Irreparable consequences would have been better off to have contacted the press directly and have the problem which is the business of the public considered in such a public forum No wonder Mr Singleton has heard from only four perrons favorable and three opposed to my position Who wants to risk the bully treatment at the hands of our school administrators In contrast I have had calls letters and direct contacts from more than 100 concerned persons all favorable to my position One exception nn unsigned letter Finally note too the dogmatic declaration by Mr Singleton concerning he morality homosexuality He declares that to characterize homosexuality as evil is unfair and untrue On what basis docs Mr Singleton make such a dog utterance Is this moral declaration based on the teaching of Roman Catholic Ism Protestantism or of the Jews which views arc professedly held by a vast majority of Canadians The answer Is overwhelmingly negative Any Christian or Jew whose moral values rooted In the Old Testament Scriptures recognizes the abhorrence of homosexuality by the God of Israel Moreover every person who belongs to a Christian Church recognizes the New Testament Scriptures as the source of their moral values who take the teachings of Moses Jesus and Paul more seriously than the teachings of James Singleton know that homosexuality Is considered evil perversion of the noble purposes for which God created us male and The Christian Is taught by Christ to love everyone as an Individual made In Gods image but at the same time to recognize the tragic consequences In men and notions of a rejection of the purposes for which wo arc created In God s Image Men a lending humanist psychiatrist like has recently called for return to a recognition or the fact of sin as a basis for responsible fulfilling living I refuse to support a public educational system dominated by a philosophy whose moral Judgments guidance Is to a Tew whose educational qualifications may bo excellent but whoso moral are suspect As atheist Lord Bcrtmnd Russell warned shortly before his death several years ago doubt If man will survive to the year because on the one hand we arc intellectual giants while on the other hand ore moral pygmies I lie parents ana taxpayers to loin me in repentance for the Irresponsibility and complacency which has allowed the control of our public educational system to be taken out of our hands The public educational system Is a mighty monalcr with nn capacity for serving or for dominating Join together to break its tyranny from our shoulders and shape its philosophy to our service and make its destiny our business Sincerely Ken Campbell Chairman The Renaissance Committee Local riders do well at SamSon school The 1974 id on Sum held nil season to horse
