Also, why is the left so defiant about stressing abstinence education. I just don't get it.

Abstinence is not just a christian fundamentalist belief, unless it is the only method to prevent pregnancy and std's that is discussed. When you stress that abstinence is the only method or only point out the bad points in the other methods, then you are trying to pass on fundamental beliefs.
The fact remains, with or without this abstinence discussion, there have always been and will always be kids out there that are having sex. If you continue to close your eyes to that, you are a sad, sad person.
