We could cure the common cold if we all stop breathing. This may be a fact as well but it is far from realistic. I have no problem with offering moral advice but if you don’t allow people to take the proper precautions then you are gambling with their lives.
Not as long as kids have hormones. The only reason I was abstinent until I was nineteen is because I couldn't get a woman to look at me without laughing.
should be manadatory when a girl reaches 13/14...
Abstinence programs (promoted by some churches) show absolutely no effect in reducing sexually transmitted diseases. In fact, it is slightly higher.
No,not as long as MTV and Hollywood prevail as culture. Nobody ever claimed that natural selection was a gentle mechanism,act like an impulsive child in a candy store and you will reap ....
Abstinence programs stop sex like DARE stops drug use.
Wouldn't that stop life?
yes it is absolute;y a reality exxcept of course for weak minded individuals.
The program works better on people who are butt ugly.
The reality is ... it ain't gonna happen. People can talk about 'what ifs' and 'moral values' all they want, but the reality is -- abstinence is a hope, not a plan.
Did you see, just yesterday (CNN.com) how a detective was lecturing kids in middle school about the dangers of "cheese" heroin and he mentioned that AMERICA is Numero Uno when it comes to drug use/abuse? - The kids CHEERED! Bet he wasn't expecting THAT response! Yes... like someone said, Abstinence programs are right up there with the *totally* successful war on drugs! Isn't it a riot? Trying to control people via thoroughly counter-intuitive means like Fear, Guilt, Abstinence(ignore thy urges) ?
