Virginia School District Sparks Outrage Over Plan to Remove Clergy From List of ‘Trusted Adults’

A Virginia school district is raising eyebrows this week for their plans to remove clergy from their suggested “trusted adults” and begin using the phrase “sex assigned at birth” instead of “biological sex” in their Family Life Education curriculum.

The Fairfax school district is expected to approve the curriculum changes on Thursday.

The list of “trusted adults” are members of the community that students are advised to speak to on matters concerning sex or sexuality.

“I take that as a personal insult,” Catholic Bishop Michael Burbidge said in a statement about the changes. “What a great insult to our clergy who give their lives in service to God’s people, to God’s young people (helping) them to do what is good and right.”

Isaiah 5:20-21 King James Version (KJV)

20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

21 Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!

There is nothing that makes any clergy inherently "trusted adults", especially when they are a likely group of sexual predators.

@7:31 - You may want to take caution quoting from a book that describes the best way to beat your slaves (Exodus 20) and how to trick them into becoming your life time slave it they are an indentured servant (Exodus 21).... also a book that describes how a rapist is to marry his victim by paying her father 50 sheckles (Deuteronomy 22), not to mention infanticide (Psalms 135&137 also 1 Samuel 15).... Yep... that book is pretty terrible, and the Deity it espouses is a monster.
