Liberal Progressive Fun

As we begin to watch Terri Schiavo starve to death, Yale and Columbia University have this neat little study which has absolutely NOOOOOOOOOOOOO socio-political bias:

Virginity Pledges do not Reduce STD Risk: May Encourage High Risk Sexual Behavior


I simply do not have time to rip this steaming pile of a study to shreds, and really do I need to? Do I need to explain the worthlessness of this? Are we really going to now encourage our children to have sex for fear that if they abstain from that they will instead engage in "high risk sexual behavior." I mean what exactly does "virginity" mean anyway?

Speaking of high risk behavior, what on earth would the liberal ivy league elite have us teach our gay children if we want to discourage "high risk sexual behavior." Maybe something like this: why not try heterosexual behavior...its the original "safe sex!" Let's be honest folks, if these yahoos really gave a crap about high risk behavior they'd say something about homosexual acts. But they have an agenda to fulfill.

My friends are lucky they aren't around me now becuase I am on a roll folks, a tirade...yeeeehawww...there's no holdin me back!

Hey, I have an idea...here's a study Yale and Columbia can try: Does REAL (not just "pledged") virginity reduce the risk of STD's?

This is so stupid, I could vomit. I mean, how many times do I have to read liberally biased "studies" that try to claim that aspirations of holiness isn't "effective." And meanwhile, Terri is getting more and more hungry. What a sick world...telling us that WE are crazy while THEY effectively begin the process that will lead to the gassing of future special olympians.

Heal us Lord.

UPDATE: This study is being further amplified with this stupid tagline: "Abstinence pledgers risk STD's" ARGGGGGGGGGH!!!!!!!! Will they acquire the Hepatitis from the pen they use to sign the card at the Abstinence Rally? Or maybe the card itself has some random Herpes virus particles? NOOOOOO...THEY GET THE DISEASE FROM DOING SOMETHING THAT ISN'T REALLY ABSTINENCE AT ALL NOW IS IT?!?!??!

You have to stop and ask yourself: what is the point of this study? What are they trying to prove?

It is important to remember that sexual purity is very difficult particularly in our very sexualized culture. Parents have a lot to do with the sexual activity of their children. If parents cease to pay attention or even encourage dating, then what should one expect to happen?

I don't think anybody is trying to say that encouraging abstinence among teens is not a legitimate aim. The point is that it should not be the only approach. Many teens simply aren't going to be abstinent, and for those teens it would be helpful if they knew how to protect themselves.

No argument Tim...except that I think you are missing the conspiratorial point...this is just one more attempt at showing the presumed worthlessness of "abstinence" training in school.

Of course, it MIGHT be worthless if everything else in our culture works against the base concepts of abstinence. I hope Rick is right. It's up to us, parents.

No, James, it is not up to you, our parents. It's up to us, the youth.

And I think what studies like this show is the difficulty of defining the word 'virgin' in our increasingly sexualized society. Perhaps we should take a closer look at THE Virgin before we try our own definitions...

Well I think we all have a role to play in making holiness a reality. Even the media.

sigh...but yes, looking to our Mother for a glimpse of Holy sanity...amen, thank you Erica
