From CBN:
Judge James Lorenz of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California issued a preliminary injunction that requires the Encinitas Union School District to provide notification to parents, and to allow them to opt-out their children when the schools promote LGBT gender ideology in “buddy classes”– a mentoring program that pairs 5th grade students with kindergarteners.
First Liberty, a non-profit legal group, represented two families in court after two fifth-grade boys at La Costa Heights Elementary School were forced to affirm a book titled “My Shadow is Pink,” which teaches children to question their gender identity.
According to CBN, these parents were told weeks prior about a gender identity united they were able to opt out of. Despite this, the parents were barred from opting out of future lessons, sparking the suit.
Judge James Lorenz of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California sided with the parents, ruling that the school violated their first amendment rights. CBN continues:
Judge Lorenz ruled in favor of the families, writing in his opinion that “compelling individuals to mouth support for views they find objectionable violates the First Amendment,” highlighting the school’s “admission that the buddy program is a mandatory part of the Curriculum.”
The court’s order instructs that “buddy program class activities and materials shall not cover gender identity topics covered in health instruction, unless Defendants provide parents with advance notice and an opportunity to opt out.”
This is an answer to out ongoing prayers. Let’s continue to pray that schools are not able to force children to participate is divisive and deceptive gender identity programs!

Praise the Lord! All glory to the Creator who made us in His image, male and female. Let us continue to pray for judges to make righteous rulings in our land.
I agree. Additionally, it would violate the rule that government is not to establish a religion, if they forced students to agree with Woke religion world-view. Additionally, some who say, “Follow the science,” don’t themselves follow the science. For example, biology textbooks say in science of meiosis that when sperm (23 chromosomes contributing X or Y) fertilizes egg (23 chromosomes containing X), then the fertilized egg contains 46 chromosomes, correct number specifically for all humans, and also furthermore XX (girl) or XY at that point (boy). Even before born, by amniocentesis blood test of baby in womb, the gender is knowable. The Woke teaching that one’s gender is determined by child choice or feelings or experiences is absolutely false and unscientific and blind to reality and non-academic and untrue and against education. I am the daughter of a NASA engineer and have found with enough study that science done well and Bible study done well consistently match, even about life in the womb. See Psalm 139:13-16 and doctor LUKE 1:41. So, thank you God for this ruling.
Amen! Love it!!! Thank you!
Thank You Jesus! Please bless this judge and other judges who judge righteously according to your righteous standards. We praise the Lord Florida now has a parental rights office. Glory to God! May the rest of the states follow suit. Even more importantly, we pray that this gender ideology is sexualization in all our schools be banned and polished in the mighty name of Jesus, amen.
ooops…
* and (not is)
* abolished (not polished)
HALLEUJAH! Glory to GOD.
Praise the Lord!
