Wasn't he the one who chose to walk amongst the lepers? How exactly does discriminating against special needs students fit in with the Christian lifestyle? This is absolutely at the heart of Social Darwinism. "Survival of the fittest" and all that jazz. Screw everyone else who doesn't look like you or think like you or live like you or vote like you. Conservative idiocy at its worst. I can just imagine how that parent conference went down, in planning their secret prom for their precious little darlings: "Nobodys gonna give our money to a bunch of re-tards! They will never pull their fare share! We want nuthin' to do with 'em! And that goes double for the f*ggots!!" You know it as well as I do. This is precisely how these people think. Makes me sick to my stomach that they probably attend church service every week. So much for lessons learned in vacation Bible school.

In other words, porn-movie lesbians. Not gym teacher lesbians.
