Huh, and here I thought the article I read was concerning a parent having his child lied to about safe-sex practices.
YES YES, abstaining from sex is the safest of all, understood and given, but you don't give out misinformation on preventative measures to possibly sexual active teens.
That the talks contained misinformation isn't a fact and could be disputed. Tom's disagreement has nothing to do with the validity of an abstinence from sex policy. It is centered around the faith of the speaker and is therefore an ad hominem attack.
The father actually wanted, "equal time to rebut the "misinformation" his son heard". The talk was about abstinence and he wants to "rebut" that. Here's a grown man that wants to come to the school and speak out against abstinence. He wants to get on the loudspeaker during morning announcements and essentially say, "hey girls time to give it up to my boy"
Don't you think that's just a little screw ball?
