Maybe harsh, but that doesn't mean it's not true.
And no, not providing something isn't the same as stopping them from getting it, but this ludicrous "stance" is coming from a figure of authority within the church, and there are people out there dumb enough to actually listen to it.
"The Bishop said the vaccine promotes promiscuity, so my daughter isn't getting it". 20 years down the road, someone has cancer. Where's the Bishop now?
And by "willful ignorance" I mean that these people know, even if they won't admit and try to deny it, they know that after all is said and done, people are going to get laid, and they are going to get laid before they get married, and they are going to be at risk of contracting this disease.
But they continue with this charade and pretend they don't know it, and pretend that they don't understand reality, and they make decisions based on something they don't believe, but do it because that's what the book or the Bishop or the guy with the hat says.
