OK so I lied, after re-reading the article I did have something to add:
Quote:
Because the vaccine protects against a sexually transmitted virus, many conservatives oppose making it mandatory, citing fears that it could send a subtle message condoning sexual activity before marriage. Several leading groups that promote abstinence are meeting this week to formulate official policies on the vaccine.

The way this is phrased, it sounds like fundamentalists think that sexually transmitted diseases are God's way of killing the sinners who have sex before marriage. I'd never really thought about it that way, but if there IS a God who punishes, I could believe it.
What is the vaccine, then? Satan?
