Either way, there is obviously a lot of misinformation being thrown around for teenagers which is really unfortunate. How they can't pick up on the correlation between lack of education and amount of teen pregnancies is beyond me. That lady trying to scream the sex out of the kids was absolutely ridiculous.
Jon Stewart did a similar expose on sex ed a few months ago where Kleper (I think) spoke with a bunch of teens from these areas who are lobbying for education and being blocked by their parents and the school boards. One kid had gotten 3 different girls pregnant before leaving high school.

No I get that part. Perhaps his post is too full of double negatives, or no commas. I'm still loopy on it. And eve if I get his text, it's not clear he understood the main argument which you already said, and which is...
While I believe John made this exact argument, how do you legislate a course, but not it's principle tenants. It's like saying, 'teach math, but forget the totals'. Weird. But because GOD factors in, and GOD doesn't have to make sense, the wrong things are taught.
As for Superfraggle, probably just written very poorly, but something about the post seemed dismissive of the point. Maybe I'll be proven wrong.
