Hey, if abstinence works for smoking and “unhealthy” foods, why is it useless for curbing pregnancy?

Considering the examples the kids have to watch on tv and in magazines, I think we can credit them for seeing train wrecks in Hollywood and avoiding that. On the otherhand (so to speak)use of condoms may well prevent a child without a father or an abortion. It does at least show some responsibility on the male half, something we are often accused of ignoring.
Re, abstinence of reporters, they became scarce in Iraq when they found out the insurgents were picking them off right and left. Oops, that’s absence…they were abstinate when there was no one to ‘helical inclined slope fastener’ anyone at the press conferences since everyone was lying.

What is sad is that the “teachers” do not care about these kids well-being. It is like they want them to self-destruct, that comes from a source that is other than God.

Their solution to the problem is to teach them how to avoid an unwanted pregnancy. Not to maintain and teach and instill values that will give the youth strength and character needed to build good citizens. Knowing how to use a condom or alternative sex techniques (to intercourse) may prevent teen pregnancies, but it will leave us with a depraved, selfish, unsatisfied society.

Abstinence works well only when the population understands why there is a need for it. Without that, it, and all the rest, are all just bandaging the scratch on a broken arm.

boberin – I believe there are already a lot of our fellow citizens would be happy to fork over 100% of their wages if big brother would take care of their every need. I wonder if we elect cHillary if we will be able to change it to big mother? With more and more adult men still living at home years after school days are ended it would probably be a “dream come true” for the underachieving young men of today.

Hawkeye #5 – But the NRA is probably the strongest supporter of gun control in all America.

The NRA even goes the extra mile and sponsors classes to help tyros learn to control their gun.

I think their first lesson in gun control involves a firm two handed grasp. the second is to exhale about half breath, the third is a firm,steady squeeze on the trigger.

It’s the same gun control I support. Plus I add that true gun control is simply being able to hit your target. (satire mode – on & off)
