So, what is abstinence-plus? Is that like, "NEW & Improved! Abstinence, now with lemony scent!" Either you are having sex or you are abstaining from sex.
I kind of figure that they are refering to a program that teaches kids about sexuality, masturbation, and contraception in addition to the abstinence-is-best diatribe. Kind of funny way to put it, though.
I agree that kids are recieving conflicting messages about sex. Whether a young-adult chooses to have sex or not, I fail to see the harm in informing them about methods of contraception that are available. I think that Christians think that if we teach our kids about condoms and contraception we are giving them permission to have sex freely. Bunk. Moralist bunk.
