You know, there was a time when you wouldn't have to explain these things to normal people.

It's not just the school. It's the religion. If St. Hugo says "no fornication" it doesn't mean "no fornication within the school walls, but do whatever you want at home." If they say "no porn", it doesn't mean "You can't look at porn at St. Hugo's, but hey, knock yourself out after three o'clock." It's a way of life. School, church and home is where Catholic kids learn that way of life. You can't separate out one of the three and say "the church has no business here" and still expect the lessons to take.

If they don't want their students looking at some of the smut on myspace and similar sites, it's the same thing. They can ban myspace and MTV and most network programming too as far as I'm concerned. It shouldn't be skin off of anyone's nose. It certainly isn't any off of mine.

Maybe the kids can read a book or paint a picture or learn to cook, in the time they would normally have spent filling their minds with trash.
