I have gathered MUCH research in the last ten years and was honored to be asked to write a chapter in a social ethics book on all of the individual and societal devastation since Americans have accepted the Hollywood LIE that it is “making LOVE” when one engages in pre-marital sex—it is NOT love to pass on an STD or get someone pregnant and not be there to support that child—it is simply engaging in LUSTFUL, hedonistic, immoral behavior—and we have now witnessed thousands harmed/KILLLED from that notion that we can continue to engage in pre-marital sex as long as we use “protection!” There are MANY STDs that are in the inner thighs, like HPV and many in areas NOT covered by the condom—so they still get infected thinking they are SAFE! The ONLY protection is to teach citizens to exercise self-control and abstain from sex until the commitment of MARRIAGE!
As a nurse practitioner, and now a PROUD abstinence educator—I have counseled so many devastated young women suffering from STDs like HPV, the STD which causes cervical cancer, as well as anal cancers and even throat cancers from oral sex—but also those crying with painful herpes blisters, and so many other STDs, along with those who are pregnant considering KILLING their unborn babies in abortion. We show them an ultrasound of their unborn baby—who has a beating heart at twenty-one days—we all were once growing in our mother’s wombs and I’m sure we are ALL blessed to say we had a pro-LIFE mother! I tell these youth to go to http://www.abortion.com/if they think killing their unborn child is a moral thing and view the reality of torn apart human babies—this is NOT moral, and I will NOT vote for any person who thinks this IMMORAL practice should be legal!
I wrote a letter to Senator Obama, who may be the first black president, sadly black Americans suffer in higher rates of MOST social ills linked to choosing to engage in pre-marital sex—I pray that we ALL understand how valuable directing our youth to abstinence from sexual activity—here is a copy of the letter—and is why I will support the candidate who supports MARRIAGE initiatives as well as abstinence education for ALL American youth:
Dear Senator Obama,
I feel compelled to write and share some VITAL information with you, I have personally been gathering research for the last ten years on the benefits of directing youth to the healthy, responsible MORAL directive of abstinence education, particularly highlighting the GREAT reductions in MANY social ills directly linked to youth choosing to engage in hetero/homosexual sexual activity outside of the 4000+ year-old tradition of MARRIAGE! I hope you will take some time to review the data, as there is GREAT news on the reduction of teen sexual activity and other social ills like STDs and fatherless households, since we began funding this healthy responsible directive in 1996—the decreases for black youth are especially hopeful! We are now seeing the dramatic results, (summary enclosed), and I also am hoping that your organization will join the abstinence advocates in this country who want EVERY American child to have access to this healthy responsible directive, so that we continue to see dramatic reductions in all of these social ills.
I am sending you MUCH of the research—most from our own CDC and the U.S. Census Bureau, and an abstinence educator for the last ten years, and was honored to write a chapter in a social ethics text (summary article enclosed) which details the HIGH disparities in social ills, particularly devastating blacks and other minorities, including rates of poverty, rates of STDs, abortion rates, as well as the devastation to youth in fatherless homes—with increased rates of criminal behavior, drug and alcohol abuse, school drop out rates, and increasing pre-term labor and infant mortality rates as well as many other devastating statistics like emotional rates of depression and suicide rates. I hope you agree that directing ALL American youth to the HIGH expectation of abstinence education is the social IDEAL that would greatly reduce all of these ills—we have been teaching ALL youth to abstain from drugs, alcohol, and smoking, but especially it is time NOW to direct ALL American youth to abstain from sexual activity as there are MANY more negative consequences related to that ONE behavioral choice!
