Especially those opposing contraception education. If they truly wanted to minimize abortion... So, because you have taken the argument to it's shallowest level, you feel you have won and there is nothing more to discuss. How typically liberal. It's been proven that abstinence doesn't work. But, you still don't want contraceptive education or abortion. You just want more of something that doesn't work. How typically conservative. D'uh. Abstinence works, dummy. What doesn't work is the typically "church moral" *abstinence edu-ma-cat-shun.* What is needed in the public schools is a comprehensive sex and relationship education program that begins, probably, in the third or fourth grade with the simple facts of life and builds progressively so that by the time kids are in the sixth or seventh grade and really curious and experimenting sexually, they know precisely how to prevent pregnancies, how to prevent transmissions of STDs, and how to get along with others. Certainly, abstinence can be part of the teaching in such a program. The reality is that most kids are going to have sex by their early teens and the best thing society can do is make sure they are equipped to handle it responsibly. I get a kick out of the religious prigs who preach the bible and against premarital sex. The bible is full of premarital sex and lust and among the very young. Read the Song of Solomon, for starters. The prigs, of course, interpret the bible to preach what they want, but what they want is not necessarily the same as what their "good book" says or means. |
