Is this what I get for agreeing with you that the Bible belt has the highest rate of teen pregnancies in the USA?

You think teenage pregnancies are higher in the bible belt because of a satanic vendetta. Reality and you are strangers.

I'm sorry.

I can't tell if that's a YES or a NO.

I think Jesus walked on water too.

Does that make reality and I strangers?

If so, why the comment now?

The school could test all the kids to determine what they actually know and believe before formal teaching begins. Those kids that have a pretty good knowledge of sex and sexuality would be excused from the lectures.

I have to say, the average 12 or 13 year old is unlikely to be familiar with all the biology involved.

Why don't you guys harp on teaching kids how to drive, since so many teenagers die in traffic accidents?

No, it wasn't for agreeing with me.

Funny how we arrived at the same conclusion then, isn't it?

The only thing is though, you gave only the effect, and I gave the cause.

Just out of curiosity, how do you explain it?

There are two possibilities. 1. Poor sex education. 2. Poor economic conditions. The two together would seem to be a bad recipe.

Lol, so in your mind teaching the biology of sexual reproduction encourages teenagers to have sex.

Affirmative.

Except let's change "encourages" to "tempts."

We're already in agreement here.

Then prostitution would take care of your logic, wouldn't it?

Mindboggling.

Because you've never heard of the Sceva effect?

You seem to be trying hard to make it look like the problem is on my side; when in fact, you're the one that is ... well ... uninformed.

You blame satan for the higher teenage pregnancy rate in the bible belt. I know. As I said, reality and you are strangers.

So now you think prostitution in bible belt areas accounts for the higher teenage pregnancy rate?

LOL

Now you're reading comprehension is showing.

I'm asking you if prostitution is your cure to this Bible Belt problem you're talking about.

Or is a chastity belt the cure to your Bible Belt?

Oh I see, you are recommending prostitution to cut down the high pregnancy rate in the bible belt. Presumably because you don't think better sex eduction might be a preferable route.

So you have your own version of the Sceva effect then?

Wrong again.

I'm asking if you think prostitution is the cure to:

1. Poor s_x education.
2. Poor economic conditions.

No, I don't know who you are. I can see that you blame reality on a cartoon bad guy though, and that isn't working out real well for you.
