    There's a lack of evidence that abstinence-only sex education works. Expect to see more of it in the U.S.http://nyti.ms/2vdKiFK

        Abstinence-only has worked great in Texas. Just look that that top-tier teen pregnancy rate and STD epidemic. JUST LIKE GOD INTENDED.

        Abstinence remains the best measure. Sex was made for marriage. Let's engage self control. We are not impulsive animals. We can control us.

        Marriage was made by God. He made the rules on how it's operated. And one of them is that we stay sexually pure till we get married.

        ok adults, ask yourself, "Would teenage me have been swayed by abstinence-only sex ed"? But yeah, it'll be different now.

        Shame we're sticking to this narrative when we're confronting the AIDS epidemic. People are dying. We're choosing posterity over life?

        Christians don't choose abstinence because it "works" but because it's good in itself, even if it doesn't "work". Avoid consequentialism!

        For that matter it's a lie the church tells people first and foremost. But in the real world, it ends up being the lie kids tell the parents
