'King & King': A Homosexual 'Marriage' Read For First Graders
By Joseph Grant Swank
Freeman Elementary School in Wilmington, North Carolina, was shelving a book
about two homosexuals in love. The title: King & King. It seems the prince
was looking about for a love. Scanning the line up of princesses, he
concluded on a prince. The two "marry." There's a follow-up to King & King.
King & King & Family has the two "married" kings adopting a child.
Olivia Hartswell, first grader, took the book home for a family read. Isn't
that cozy? Not when Michael and Tonya got hold of the book! They're Olivia's
mommy and daddy. Get the pix?
Dutch writers, Linda De Haan and Stern Nijland, are progressive. They're at
the head of the pack. They're really posh and avant-garde and a slice off
the latest cake. You betcha. So In America in 2002 Tricycle Press (sounds
tame enough, eh?) published it in the children's division of Ten Speed
press. The little gem is geared for younguns six and older, according to AFA
Journal Staff Writer Jason Collum.
"'I was flabbergasted,' Hartsell said in a report by The Associated Press.
'My child is not old enough to understand something like that, especially
when it is not in our beliefs.'
"Flabbergasted or not, King & King is only one of many examples of books
written for children that aim to indoctrinate them with views and social
agendas with which Christian parents might disagree.
"Parents, like the Hartsells, who have come across children's books with
themes or material they feel are inappropriate for children, are welcomed to
alert ParentsAware.net. To contact the site, go to the Web site and click on
the link 'contact the Web site book reviewer.'"
This site was set up by one parent who's employed by a national bookstore
chain. It's a prime example of what moralists can do in this increasingly
secularized culture. Instead of wailing the woes of the trampled, Christians
can do something. The Lord will lead if the believer is willing to follow.
"'It was the book Boy Meets Boy by David Levithan that pushed me over the
edge and into the Web site world,' the site creator writes on the
introduction page of parentsaware.net. 'Here was a book aimed at kids 12
years old and up that was openly gay. . . . When I started to look at teen
books a little closer, I found that Boy Meets Boy was exactly that, the
first 'openly' gay teen book.
"'I take home the children's books to read so I can recommend them to people
who come in and ask about them. The first book I read was Jake Riley:
Irreparably Damaged, which had bestiality in it. When I read that I just got
so completely disgusted I decided I couldn't stay quiet; I had to do
something about it.'
"Jake Riley, written by Rebecca Fjelland Davis for readers 12 and older,
tells of a boy who, at different points in the story, tries to grope and
seduce Lainey, the main female character. He uses his pocketknife to saw off
the leg of an injured squirrel and is later caught by Lainey in the calf pen
in the barn. His pants are down and he is 'groaning with pleasure.'
"33 Snowfish, by Adam Rupp, is about three teenagers. Of the teens, Boobie
has killed his parents and kidnapped his infant sibling to sell on the
street. Custis, another teen, is being 'kept' by a pornographer making
pedophilic movies. And Curl is a teenage prostitute.
"'All the reviews I could find of this book recommended it for kids over 15,
' the site creator reports. 'I can't imagine they would do that without a
really, really good reason.'
"Another book, Swear to Howdy, is troubling in its own right. The book,
written for children 8-12, goes into great detail on how to load and shoot a
rifle, and the characters in the book kill the family cat. Also, at one
point, one of the book's characters, Rusty, finds Joey sitting on his bed
with the muzzle of his rifle in his mouth, his finger on the trigger,
saying, 'There ain't no other way out.'"

Atheism teaches that there is no God, hence no God-given rights. That
ideology coupled with a system that believed in the superiority of the state
at the expense of the individual was murderously synergistic.

Why did you steal this and post it over and over and over, all the while not
knowing what it means?

And the Freeman Elementary School library doubtless also has
many dozens of books containing hundreds of fairy tales
about the Handsome Prince and the Beautiful Princess, the
King and the Queen, the merry inkeeper and his bountiful
wife.
And then the bigots choke when even a single one is noticed which
deviates from the party line.
