Praise God! A church I can live wit.

Let me try this again. I said the "p" and "v" words and it got deleted. What in the name of heaven is wrong with kids learning about sexually transmitted diseases? What is wrong with them learning about birth control? What is wrong with them learning about the serious consequences of pregnancy? What is wrong with them learning about deepening relatio ...[text shortened]... a form of sex education.

How many kids do you have? I bet it is at least 6, maybe more.

I have 5 children, and raised 1 other as my own, so 6 really.

I never said there was anything wrong with sex education. I think you may be taking me out of context since you are assuming I am.

You know, if folks would just simply trust the Lord and follow His guidance concerning these matters I don't think we would be talking about sexually transmitted diseases. Do you know what I mean?

If I'm taking what you said out of context, please help me understand what "Sex ed is for morons" means. Or "all you have to do is let nature take its course."

Would you tell a teenager to just "trust in the Lord" when it comes to driving a car? Or would you encourage them to take driving lessons?

Rev, that sorry white dude couldn't even hit it seven days in a row. Just another sorry case of "Do as I say, not as I do" being preached from the pulpit of the white church.

Amen! Can you imagine that interview if we had been doing it? I have a lot of good questions. Here are some of them:

1) So did you do a whole lot of "Oh God" screaming?

2) Where did he finish off? I only ask because of Onan in the Bible.

3) Did either one of you fantasize about other people in the congregation doing it while you were?



4) What is the biblical perspective on anal?

5) So it's OK to "tap it" for Jesus?

6) We often hear in the religious communities that bigger is better. Is that also true with sex?

If what we have in this country in the way of education is the best way to educate, then the results speaks for itself.

We have runaway teen pregnancy, drug abuse, STDs', violence of every kind, porn on every street corner...etc.

The list goes on and on.

I have personally witnessed the decline in this culture since the middle of the last century, and no one can convince me that the problem exists because of conservatism. It's the liberal agenda that is being forced down our throats even to this day that is the root cause of the problems we face, especially from a cultural perspective. Not all, but most of it.

If it's as bad as you say, let's just hope Jesus returns soon.

The ills that you list are not directly tied to the "liberal agenda" as you so provocatively put it. If the totaltarian fist of conservatism was at hand those ills would still exist, as well as incest, pedophilia, adultery, repression of women, repression of civil rights, repression of racial rights, etc.

Nice try to link that list to liberals but it don't stick.

You're mixed up. Totalitarianism and conservatism are two distinctly different animals.

Liberalism is neigh unto socialism as socialism is unto totalitarianism.

Totalitarianism

1. the practices and principles of a totalitarian regime.
2. absolute control by the state or a governing branch of a highly centralized institution.

Sosialism

1. a theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole.
2. procedure or practice in accordance with this theory.
3. (in Marxist theory) the stage following capitalism in the transition of a society to communism, characterized by the imperfect implementation of collectivist principles.

Conservatism

1. The inclination, especially in politics, to maintain the existing or traditional order.
2. A political philosophy or attitude emphasizing respect for traditional institutions, distrust of government activism, and opposition to sudden change in the established order.

Liberalism

In the twentieth century, a viewpoint or ideology associated with free political institutions and religious toleration, as well as support for a strong role of government in regulating capitalism and constructing the welfare state.
