No, Free Speech Doesn’t Mean Porn In Schools

By: Christian Winter, The Federalist, November 04, 2022

Free speech is not freedom to degrade public morals and destroy the order necessary for liberty. Some speech is beyond the pale.

PEN America, an international advocacy group for free expression, recently published an updated report about “book banning” in America. The group claims that school districts choosing not to carry particular books in their libraries “threaten[s] free expression and students’ first amendment rights.” The most common books that school districts have restricted student access to include “Gender Queer,” “All Boys Aren’t Blue,” and “Out of Darkness.” These books have been criticized as pornographic and promoting LGBT content. For example, “All Boys Aren’t Blue,” a book aimed at adolescents, contains graphic descriptions of male homosexual sex.

PEN America argues that the removal of such books from school libraries “impede[s] free expression rights” and that such efforts do not “uphold free speech rights.” For PEN America, free expression rights “must be the bedrock of public schools in an open, inclusive, and democratic society.”

Such an understanding of free speech and free expression is wrong. Any sort of “free speech absolutism” that recognizes no limits is not the ideal for those concerned about ordered liberty. Men and women who care about their communities and their nation ought not to desire a public square that is laissez faire in its approach to speech. Just as true liberty is not license but liberty to do what is good, free speech is not freedom to degrade public morals. Speech expresses morals, and some morals — some ways of life — are beyond the pale for societies that are oriented to what is good and right and true.
Speech-Denying Nature Undermines the Nation

The American nation was built upon a conception of the world that recognized “the laws of Nature and Nature’s God.” There was an understanding by our nation’s founders that there are moral laws built into the fabric of the world that human beings ought to obey. Unfortunately, America in the modern day has lost any shared consensus about those laws of nature, or even whether there are moral laws at all. The sexual revolution has taken its toll on the public’s conception of morality. Recovering public morals will include a renewed recognition of the basic principles of the moral laws found in nature. The nature observable to the American founders is the same nature we can see today. Speech that denies nature itself — such as speech promoting sexual relations contrary to nature — undermines the very foundation upon which American society rests.

If a nation is to preserve itself, it must be willing to defend its moral foundation. Books that promote degenerate behavior, especially when they are targeted at children, ought not to be tolerated. For America, “free expression” that grossly violates “the laws of Nature and Nature’s God” acts like a jackhammer to America’s moral foundation, leaving it more like sand than rock, ready for the rising waters of late modernity to seep in and threaten destruction.

The idea of limiting expression in order to promote the moral foundations of society stretches from Plato to the American founders (and beyond). In discussing what sort of poetry ought to be recited in the ideal city, Socrates and his interlocutors in “The Republic” decide that tales encouraging immorality must be replaced by those that help citizens to know their place in the city and love justice. The old myths told by Homer and Hesiod taught that the gods practiced wickedness, and thereby encouraged wickedness among the people who looked up to the gods. Thus, Homer and Hesiod’s myths needed replacement. Some speech does not promote what is good or just, and Plato suggests that it therefore ought to be stopped to build a flourishing society.

“The 45 Goals of Communism” as entered in the U.S. Congressional Record in 1963!
Goal #26: “Promote homosexuality, promiscuity, degeneracy as natural, normal, healthy…”
That is exactly what those teachers are doing!

They are trying to push this as well as CRT and the Poisonous Franken Shot in the schools and the people are fighting it. They already adopted mandatory Franken Shot in one school district but the people are fighting to keep it out of the other school districts.

This is not even teaching Biology as it is teaching certain sexual acts that defy Biology as sex with a person of the same sex does not produce another human being, the basis of Biology, and it is up to the ADULTS in the Room to engage in whatever sexual acts they enjoy otherwise the schools will soon be teaching the joys of S&M which is also sexual acts between consenting ADULTS, the key word is Adults and the Books are for Children… What is difficult to understand here?.
Teachers teaching this should be fired right away.

Maybe, just maybe, some people will come to realize the demonic and satanic control behind the perverted and deviant perpetrators of this filth.
Read Rabbi Johnathon Cahn’s new book “Return of the gods” and this will all make sense. Prior to the coming of Christianity 2,000 years ago, this world was run by gods, spirits, and evil entities that the world worshipped through their temples, altars, statues and icons and offered their children as sacrifices to.
They are back and wreaking havoc and “you ain’t seen nuthin’ yet” !! BUT, God has satan on a short leash and is about to return, lock him up for 1,000 years and bring His judgments on this vile and evil Christ rejecting world.
If you are not ready to meet the one who created you, the time is NOW. His name is Jesus and He is waiting for you to chat with Him.
Maranatha, come Lord Jesus…….>

As I understand it, a parent still has the Right to use Force (including Deadly Force) to protect their child from sexual predators.
