Bush wants to teach abstinence in schools without even a mention of birth control?
Seriously? What the hell is wrong with that country.
School is a place where people go to learn. To acquire information. As much as possible about as many subjects as possible in order to better prepare them for the world. Not have moral judgements passed onto them.
Abstinence is a valid viewpoint. It has its advantages. Sure, teach it to the kids. Also teach them about birth control. About STDs. About the biology of sex. Give them the facts to prepare them for the world, don't just teach them what YOU want them to do and hope they never encounter anything contradictory.
"Sex ed?! Egads no! If my little Timmy sees a picture of a vagina, he might start having sex with as many of them as he can find! And then start smoking! And killing unborn children! What next?! Graffiti?!"
