Abstinence only - MASSIVE FAIL.

Real Sex Education, treating kids like they actually have minds and can make good choices when given all the information - MASSIVE SUCCEED

Sex education classes appear to boost the likelihood that teens will wait until at least their 15th birthday to have sex.

A study of more than 2,000 teens found that boys who had sex education in school were 71 percent less likely to have sex before age 15.

The effect was also significant among teen girls in school, particularly among blacks.

Obviously this is false just like all the studies that were sponsored to prove ignorance works. Sure every study shows the same thing and all through history education was the best way to solve problems but that doesn't change things. :)

If Georgie's mama had had proper "sex education" we wouldn't be in such a mess in this country now.

Wishful thinking doesn't work?
Damn!

But education does?
Superb.

Now if we could educate the American people about Iraq rather than allow them the reckless delusion of wishful thinking . . . .

oh, wait,
they can't be BOTHERED.

Well this will be remembered by others, so in all likelihood you or your children WILL become bothered by all the repercussions that come back to bite you on the ass.

the question is 'good thing' for whom?

the looter, manipulators like Rove & the Neocons or genuinely deep good for America & its prosperous longevity?

Education, emphasizing critical thinking is essential.
