I have to admit I am continually amazed by the long and storied history of the relationship between Christianity and sex. It seems to be such a continual theme.

The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Martin Luther King

Never said that at all. I just said parents have the right to teach their children their own sexual ethics.Originally posted by JimL View Post"The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe.

And it is going to go on as long as human beings exist. The Christian view on this is (in most cases) a complete contradiction of what is natural and it sets indivuals in a fundamental conflict between what they believe religiously and what their body tells them in a not very sophisticated but rather easily understandable language.Originally posted by carpedm9587 View PostComment

And amazing how many people had their life damaged by not being allowed to have sex and not being respected because they are homosexuals and afraid of what their parents or the church might say.Comment

It's not clear to me what that has to do with my observation...The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars.

Bondage, and how to do it right, is not a subject that we should be raising with kids. And the fact that you don't know that only proves how morally stunted you actually are.Originally posted by Psychic Missile View PostAtheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

I agree that bondage is not a subject we should be raising with children. However, lessons like seeking active consent, communicating with your partner, and the signs of an abusive relationship, are all very important and the purpose of the talk that flyer you linked to was advertising. 50 Shades was just a launching point.Originally posted by seer View PostComment

Yup, "here are the things that are wrong with this thing in pop culture" seems like a message the conservatives here ought to be embracing, not attacking.Originally posted by Psychic Missile View Post"I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump

No, it isn't the same thing, sex ed isn't an indoctrination. I doubt you actually even know what is taught in sex ed.Originally posted by Sparko View Postsame with teaching them about sex

It's projection: He's imagining what he would teach in sex ed, namely indoctrination of moral teachings rather than facts, and projecting it on to the school system.Originally posted by JimL View Post
It's funny that the conservatives are afraid that if the school says anything to their kids on the subject, then they think that no amount of parental teachings and correction and indoctrinating of moral ideas will be able to dislodge whatever it is they're afraid of the school saying. It's apparently not enough in their minds to be able to lecture their kids for hours each night if they want to on the true morals/immoralities of sex, they require the school to say nothing at all to be sure that their own indoctrination of their kids will stick."I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump
